The Three StoogesGet Rating Widget!

Overall Rating:4.33 based on 27 ratings
ItemImageThe original Stooges (from the '30s and early '40s) was the team of Larry Fine and brothers Moe and Curley Howard. Curley left early in the '40s, and was replaced by Shemp (another Howard brother). Shemp died in the mid '50s, and had two other replacements as the series went on partway through the '60s.

Very under-rated and over looked, Larry, Moe, and Curly were comedic geniouses. They never got the recognition they deserved.

Curley pretty much made this act funny.Moe was not all that great and Larry was merely OK.

No matter what the subject,in my brain , Larry,Moe and Curly(or Shemp)come out on top-in comparison every thing else is rotten eggs and burnt toast.

Absolute comedy geniuses. They were hilarious w/o all of the swearing, or sex jokes, or hardcore violence like shooting or stabbing people. Good clean fun suitable for all ages.

Mildly amusing slapstick, that fades to the background in the face of creative dialogue and breaking the fourth wall.

pure comediac genius. true that the original shorts trio are the classic version, but Shemp was no fluke. he was actually one of the original stooges when they were Ted Healy's boys (curley joined after Shemp left and the boys struck out on their own). i've been a fan since i was a little kid and first caught the shorts on Superstation Funtime on WTBS. i dont know a woman who likes them. i just consider this a shortcoming of their gender.

Moe, Larry, and Curly I think were the best of the Stooges. Moe Larry, and Shemp were a close second. TO IRISHGIT: Good call.

The original three were soitenly superior to the successive groupings. Comedy that really appeals to boys between 8 and 80. I've only met two women who thought they were hilarious, and I married one of them.

Hey Moe! (slap) Nyuck! Nyuck! They are second only to the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost, who appear to have been left off for fear of enraging the not so religious.

They were okay but more of a guy thing than a girl thing, I think. Hey, this one song sticks in my head from one of the Stooges shorts (films, people!). I think Larry, Moe and Curly were dressed in cap and gown and were professors at some college and they were teaching the class something with a song that used all the letters of the alphabet in turn. Went something like - bear with me here - B-A BAY, B-E BEE, B-I BICKY-BYE, B-O BOW, BICKY-BYE-BO B-U BOO, BICKY-BYE-BOW-BOO (and went on D-A DAY, D-E DEE, etc., etc.). Anyone have a clue what the heck that was about??? I never thought I'd actually type those lyrics, by the way. Calling Dr. Howard...Dr. Fine...Dr. Howard.

Comic Genius. Every great comedy show, from Lucy to Seinfeld exhibit the influence of The Stooges (in fact Jerry once complained to George that Elaine's father was going to treat them like Moe). I laughed myself silly watching Three Little Pirates (Yo-MaHa...Ah Ha!!!) in 1966 and still laugh myself silly when I watch that episode for the 20th time in 2004. Curly was an extraordinary comic talent. Moe and Larry were hilarious too. However, not all Stooges are the same. Most of the ones with Shemp weren't that great and the Joe/Curly Joe episodes were absolutely horrible (I especially hated Joe Besser; he's no Stooge). The ones with Curly are all comedic gems. Didja ever notice that love of the Stooges is a Male thing. I have never found a woman (other than my mom) who thinks they are funny.

Weren't they a dysfunctional family? Seems like they were always yelling and hitting each other.

The Stooges were okay for a classic comedy team, but they still don't hold a candle to Laurel and Hardy, who I believe had more genuine, natural comedy.
