Yeah- what was the deal with that suit? Did Lou wear it for A&C MEET J&H first, or for the series?

Perhaps Mr. Furmanek could confirm this, but for some of the second season episodes, Lou wore the familiar checkered jacket, then in ones like "FENCING MASTER" "BANK HOLDUP" and "THE BEAUTY CONTEST STORY" he wore this one.

Am I correct in guessing that the some of the episodes were filmed sometime late in 1952 then the boys went on hiatus in 1953 to film J&H and Lou (or somebody?) decided that he should wear that suit some of the episodes?

Or is a crazier scenario where Lou would run back and forth between Universal Studios and the set of the TV series without changing wardrobe or makeup?

Bud obviously didn't.
