Summary: The owner of a general store (Harold Bisonette) is hounded by his status-anxious wife ("That's 'Bee-soh-nay'" and "I have no maid you know"). To get some sleep he goes out on the porch where he is tormented by a little boy from the floor above (Baby Dunk) and an insurance salesman down below... (imdb)

Retarded is the only way I can describe this, but it is retarded in the funniest imaginable way.

God, W.C. Fields fucking sucks. This was utter hell, almost every moment of it irritating and predictable. It's the kind of "comedy" where you just want to murder everyone. And some of the worst comic timing I've ever witnessed. A scene where Fields tries to get some sleep goes on for a torturous 11 and a half minutes. Ho ho, I wonder what wacky distraction will wake him up next? A coconut rolling down the stairs?! Hilarious! A couple of decent one-liners, but that's it.

Boy, has this dated badly. It's OK but even the legendary "Carl LaFong" sequence isn't that great

Fields is great as always, but Norman Z. McLeod's direction seems to suck funny out of the movie.

Whenever I watch a comedy I inevitably find myself thinking, "this isn't bad but what it really needs is more whining, nagging, drawn out jokes with no punchline, grating voices and misunderstandings." Those are the true hallmarks of comedy. Evidently Fields felt the same way because this film consists entirely of these things.
