The Three Stooges	comment	The Three Stooges are best known for the dozens of short subjects they turned out through Columbia Pictures starting in the 1930s. In fact, with 190 short films, not including their features and numerous cameo or guest appearances dating back to 1930, this trio had the longest film series in Hollywood history.Though six actors appeared as Stooges at varying times, people are most familiar with the iconic lineup of Moe Howard, the bully-like leader (and the only actor to stay with the trio for its entire existence); Larry Fine, the frizzy-haired sort-of straight man; and Jerome "Curly" Howard (Moe's younger brother), the bald, oddball guy with the weird mannerisms and verbalizations.Like many Hollywood successes, the Stooges came about their success largely through serendipity. The Stooges started out as second bananas to former vaudeville comic Ted Healy, and were not originally credited as Stooges. The original line-up consisted of Moe, Larry and Shemp Howard, Moe's elder brother. After making one film with Healy, 1930's Soup to Nuts, Shemp launched a solo career as a comic and character actor. Jerome (who had no prior acting experience) was recruited, dubbed Curly despite (or perhaps because of) his shaved head, and the trio continued to appear in films with Healy.In 1934, Columbia offered them their first picture deal and Moe promptly seized the opportunity to make the big time without their notoriously drunk and abusive employer. Their first film, Women Haters, was moderately successful; their second, Punch Drunks, was more so; and the third, Men in Black, was nominated for an Oscar, and the group found its niche, appearing in a half dozen or so short films (16-20 minutes) a year.Curly was forced to retire in 1946 after suffering a stroke during a break in filming of Half Wits Holiday, and Shemp Howard (who was reluctant to rejoin, as he had a successful solo career, but realized that Moe and Larry would have nothing without the Stooges) rejoined the act, changing the dynamic and triggering an ongoing "Curly vs. Shemp" debate that presaged the similar Joel vs. Mike debates of more recent vintage. After the deaths of Curly and Shemp in 1952 and 1955, respectively, a bizarre set of Stooges shorts were created in order to complete the trio's current contract, making use of a body double and stock footage to make it appear that the now-deceased Shemp had participated, a technique later dubbed the Fake Shemp in his honor by director Sam Raimi. In 1956, Joe Besser, already a well-established comedy star, joined the group for their last shorts with Columbia (the short-film format was retired in 1959), and "Curly Joe" DeRita, so nicknamed because of his resemblance to the original Curly, would sign on for their "post-shorts" career which involved a number of feature films as well as hosting a popular cartoon series.The Stooges continued to make popular feature films and TV appearances until January 9, 1970 when Larry Fine suffered a stroke during production of a TV pilot called Kook's Tour. Like Curly Howard, Larry suffered more strokes before his death on January 24, 1975. In the early 1970s, longtime Stooges supporting actor Emil Sitka (best known to most Stooges fans for the line "Hold hands, you lovebirds!") was promoted as "Middle Stooge", but Moe died on May 4, 1975 before any more movies were made, ending the era of the original Three Stooges. Curly-Joe continued to do live performances for a short time with two other individuals filling in for Moe and Larry, but then retired.The Three Stooges are one of the few comedy acts of the black-and-white era that continue to attract fans and remain so firmly embedded in the popular culture that a fifteen second silent cameo depicting them as airport firefighters still provides one of the biggest laughs in It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World decades after their heyday. Their popularity is such that video games have been made about them all the way up to the Game Boy Advance era.Although... Said GBA game is actually a very minimally Polished Port of a 1987 Amiga game, which has also seen the NES, 8-bit computers, and bizarrely, the PlayStation. And while their broad slapstick has been often derided by critics, it's also a key reason why they're popular even in nations where English isn't spoken. They also had two animated adaptations: a syndicated series in 1965, with live-action wraparounds between cartoons, and The Robonic Stooges, a segment of Hanna-Barbera's Skatebirds. Unfortunately, neither of these truly took advantage of The Stooges' already cartoon-like nature.That's the short version of it. Wikipedia has practically a small book on the team, their history and their impact. Nyuk nyuk nyuk.Trope-wise, it is hard to do slapstick without referencing the Stooges. They did it all. Wait. Here is the throw-down: If you can come up with a slapstick bit that was not done by the Stooges, the Wiki will award you a delicious, fresh-baked custard pie.note In your face. Let's not forget tradition! Notably, the Groin Attack trope is not on this page. This could be an oversight or deliberate, due to Hays Code enforcement. The movie definitely has a Groin Attack, but it's not the original Stooges...Don't bring any lame one-foot-in-a-wastecan, guy-turns-with-ladder-and-bonks-another-guy-in-the-eye stuff. We have no pies for that.A Made-for-TV Movie biopic about the Stooges produced by Mel Gibson came out in 2000 on ABC. While it serves in large part as an homage to their comedy style, to the point of recreating several of their shorts, it also confronts many of the not funny parts of their careers, particularly Curly's health issues.A movie was released on April 13, 2012. It was directed by the Farrelly Brothers, appropriately enough. Described on the DVD as a love letter to the Stooges, the film recreates many of the trio's tropes, and adds a few more.

The Three Stooges / int_1b65dfad	type	The Cameo
The Three Stooges / int_1b65dfad	comment	The Cameo: Moe, Larry and Curly Joe appeared in the 1963 film It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World. They are on-screen for maybe ten seconds, don't speak or even move, and it's still one of the funniest jokes in the entire movie. Curly himself also appeared post-retirement in the short "Hold That Lion" as a sleeping train passenger who would make dog noises (as Curly would). This would be the only short to include all three of the Howard brothers, Moe, Curly, and Shemp. The scene was also used in "Booty and the Beast". Shemp has a wacky cameo as "Wacky" in Another Thin Man. Shemp in fact had cameos in several films throughout the 30's and 40's, though movie audiences had yet to come to know him as a Stooge. Moe, Larry and Curly show up in a last-minute cameo in 1942 screwball comedy adaptation of My Sister Eileen. The central joke of that film involved two sisters whose basement Manhattan apartment is routinely invaded by all manner of hilariously outlandish pests. The final moments of the films see the Stooges (apparently employed as subway maintenance workers) literally drilling their way into the apartment from below. Moe and Curly appear in 1936's Broadway to Hollywood as Otto and Fritz, two clowns in makeup. invoked For reasons unknown the 1960s western film 4 for Texas, which followed a semi-dramatic plot about a man running a riverboat casino and avoiding being killed in the process, stops dead near the end so that Larry, Moe and Curly-Joe can put on a brief routine, after which they disappear from the film as abruptly as they arrived. Perhaps explained by the fact that co-stars Dean Martin and Frank Sinatra were both fans of the Stooges. Sinatra also had the Stooges as guests on his 1950's TV show, as did fellow Rat-Packer Joey Bishop on his later 1960's late-night talk show.

In "Oil's Well that Ends Well," Joe Besser silently mouths the words "I hate him" after Moe is mean to him. Another of the Curly-era shorts, "I'll Never Heil Again" has Curly lean towards the camera a little and say something.

The Three Stooges / int_21bde5e8	comment	The Tooth Hurts: Used in I Can Hardly Wait, where Curly gets a toothache after breaking his tooth on a hambone. The rest of the short consists of Curly moaning in pain, and Moe and Larry trying to get it out. And then there's The Tooth Will Out in which the boys train one whole week to become dentists. It ends pretty much the way you'd expect. Also done in The New 3 Stooges. A live-action framing sequence shows the boys training for a day of dentistry with Larry as the guinea pig for their practice. (Larry refuses to continue any further when they try the drill, so they switch to using Curly Joe instead.) An animated short "Dentist The Menace", also featured Curly Joe with a toothache, and Hilarity Ensues as Moe and Larry attempt to pull the tooth out themselves, eventually getting them caught up in the middle of a car chase between the police and a bank robber. In the end, the Stooges go sailing into the air, and, as luck would have it, they land right at the dentist's door...but Curly loses the offending tooth in the landing, eliminating any need to visit the dentist.

The Three Stooges / int_243cbd0d	comment	Dope Slap: Essentially Moe's job. Interestingly, when Moe wasn't around, Larry tended to take his place dishing out Dope Slaps, as he was next in the vague pecking order dynamic the stooges had. Occasionally, Curly or Shemp would hit Larry, again, provided Moe wasn't around. Lampshaded in their dope slap lineups, where Moe would turn to slap Larry, Larry would turn to slap Curly and/or Shemp, and Curly/Shemp would turn to slap...nobody, emphasizing their place as the low man.

The Three Stooges / int_607a8bd2	comment	Beastly Bloodsports: The Stooges filmed at least two comedies involving the Stooges as bullfighters: What's the Matador? (1942): The Stooges are vaudeville entertainers who trek to Mexico to perform their gag bullfight shtick, with Curly as the brave matador, and Moe and Larry dressed in a bull costume. Along the way, they cross paths with attractive senorita Dolores Sanchez. They also cross paths with her evil jealous, and hot-tempered, man-hating husband named José. In an act of revenge on Curly for flirting with Dolores, José pays the bullring attendants to release a live bull into the ring. Moe and Larry flee the ring, but Curly is unaware of the switch. He eventually head-butts the wild animal, and is paraded out of the ring to the rousing cheers of "Olé, Americano!" Sappy Bull Fighters: Largely a reworking of the 1942 short, the Stooges are vaudeville entertainers who trek to Mexico to perform their gag bullfight shtick, with Joe as the brave matador, and Moe and Larry dressed in a bull costume. Unfortunately, their gig is cancelled once they arrive. According to the trio, the manager fired them after they refused to do 10 additional shows for free. With no money to return home, the Stooges are stranded. Feeling bad for them, attractive señorita Greta gets the boys a gig at the local bull ring. However, when she leaves Greta mistakenly takes the trio's suitcase instead of hers. When they go retrieve it, however, Joe becomes attracted to Greta and begins to kiss her, infuriating her husband José. The next day, the Stooges perform their act successfully at a bullring José recognizes the trio. In an act of revenge he pays the bullring attendant to release a live bull into the ring. Moe and Larry flee, but Joe is unaware of the switch. He eventually head-butts the wild animal, and is paraded out of the ring to the rousing cheers of "Olé, Americano!"

In A Pain in the Pullman, all three of them eat crab shells, leaving the meat aside. Interestingly, Moe's crab shell is a rock candy fake; he had a dislike of shellfish (either from keeping kosher himself or growing up in a family who did) and didn't even like the smell left on a real crab shell. One episode has the three working as riveters on a construction site. Larry is grilling hot dogs on the rivet fire, but is caught by their boss, and quickly switches back to heating the rivets. However, Curly catches the next rivet, thinking it's a hot dog, and eats it. He doesn't even notice what it really is. A big running gag of the shorts would entail the Stooges gleefully discarding fruit and nuts in favor of the wasteful peels and shells. According to them, they were exquisite.

He rents a theater for them, and after a rehearsal he likes them so much he announces he's doubling their salaries.

The Three Stooges / int_863fa679	comment	What Happened to the Mouse?: In Even As I.O.U., the plot of the first half of the short, where the stooges are helping a homeless mother and her child, is forgotten after they go to the horse races to raise money for them. A tragic inversion of the trope occurs midway through Half-Wits Holiday when Curly walks off camera and is never seen nor referenced again, even during the short's climactic pie fight. This is due to Curly suffering his stoke between scenes and the decision being made to complete the short without him.

The Three Stooges / int_884e513b	comment	Medium Awareness: A rare and very subtle (blink and you miss it) example. Curly hides in a big console radio to elude the bad guys, disabling the unit in the process. When his pursuers try to use the radio, Curly is forced to become an ad hoc one-man band (playing a set of pipes, strumming wires like a harp, playing tubes like a xylophone, etc.). At one point, he seems to end his performance with a flourish and takes the pipes down from his mouth. The pre-recorded soundtrack, of course, continues, and Curly does a "take" and quickly resumes his miming as if nothing had happened. Another instance of this is when Moe tells Larry to pick up Curly's footprints in "Some more of Samoa".

Many trios who possess or somehow acquire hairstyles (or the equivalent) reminiscent of the Stooges'. Short Circuit includes a brief appearance by Numbers One, Two, and Three, sent out to retrieve Number Five. "Johnny" reprograms them after a battle and they re-appear before their controllers engaging in Stooge-like shenanigans. During the "Beware the Creeper" episode of Batman: The Animated Series, the Joker's henchmen-of-the-episode sported Stooge-like haircuts, and the bald one even engaged in Curly-like self-face-slapping.

It's a mystery as to why this short moment is often cut, since it's perfectly innocuous (they spill from his jacket, not his pants), and the resulting pile of golf balls also sets up a later gag.

The Three Stooges / int_a8a0603e	type	Juggling Loaded Guns
The Three Stooges / int_a8a0603e	comment	Juggling Loaded Guns Disorder in the Court introduces a gun as evidence. Curly is told to try to pull the incredibly rusty trigger, after being told "Never fear, it's not loaded." After one harmless click, he then accidentally shoots off the baliff's toupee when his finger gets stuck in the trigger guard. Any time the Stooges or someone around them insisted a gun wasn't loaded, it was. In "3 Loan Wolves" Curly gives a baby a pacifier. When Moe sees that it's a revolver, he reaches in to get it, but is stopped by Larry, who warns that the kid might pull the trigger. Curly insists it isn't loaded, and seeks to prove it...by cocking the hammer and thoughtlessly discharging it in an enclosed space. Pretty much every rule of gun safety is blithely disregarded.

(Two fingers on Moe's extended right hand, picked by Larry or Curly, always the index and middle fingers, which would then poke the finger-picker's eyes!) Curly's "Soitenly!" "I'm a victim of soicumstance!" "Moe! Speak to me! Say a few syllables." "Hey, Moe! Hey, Larry!" Larry's "Leave him alone!", which earns him a quick slap to the face! And short-lived "What's goin' on around here?" And for a supporting character... Emil Sitka's 'Hold hands, you lovebirds!' from The Brideless Groom. Sitka was often invited to weddings to say this.

The Three Stooges / int_bbc17998	comment	Enforced Method Acting: Occasionally, the Stooges would actually get injured on set. Some notable examples: "Pardon My Scotch" (1935): After Curly saws through the table Moe is standing on, Moe performs a painful-looking pratfall onto solid ground, before getting back up and smacking Curly and Larry. During the take used in the final product, Moe actually broke three ribs and production had to be delayed while he recovered in the hospital. "Gem of a Jam" (1943): During a scene where Curly almost falls out of a window, the operating table Curly was on leaned back too quickly and Curly banged his head on the window frame. The resulting gash required several stitches. "Heavenly Daze" (1948): One scene features Larry being stabbed in the forehead by a flying pen. Despite director Jules White's assurance that the gag wouldn't result in injury, the pen actually punctured Larry's skin. Moe did not take kindly to this. In "Brideless Groom" (1947): After several poor looking takes where she was supposed to look like she was assaulting him for impersonating her cousin Basil, Shemp told Christine McIntyre to just go ahead and hit him and that he could handle it. She ended up hitting him so hard that she broke his nose, much to her horror. However, true to his reputation for being easy going, Shemp comforted her as he was being tended to by softly saying, "Aw, it's alright, honey."

The Three Stooges / int_db4bb2fc	comment	Harpo Does Something Funny: Invoked Scripts would often contain the generic instruction Moe punishes Curly, leaving it up to them to come up with an appropriate sequence of bits of physical schtick. (Which eventually were so ingrained and codified that they were referred to in shorthand by reference numbers; e.g., an eye poke might be a "number 16," a tweak of the nose a "23," etc. This is referenced in the feature film The Three Stooges Go Around the World in a Daze when, having turned the tables on their would-be Chinese communist brainwashers, Moe calls out numbers to them, and they perform the called-for actions, now looking and acting like the Stooges.) According to The Other Wiki, writer Jules White would also often leave gaps in which Curly could improvise. Many of Curly's most famous mannerisms, such as his trademark "woob woob woob" or spinning in a circle on the floor, were originally improvised by Curly in the Stooges' vaudeville days when he would forget his lines.

Especially blatant in these cases because most of the Stooges not only have very obviously male faces, but are... well, exceptionally goofy-looking, even as men. Also, Curly, the largest Stooge, is the one who most frequently has to do this. In fact, in one episode, Curly dresses up as a female Native American to fool a French hunter, who actually goes so far as to marry this "fat Indian momma" and take him/her to his bedroom. Hilarity ensued, although since this was before Black Comedy Rape could get through film censors, the disguise was revealed before anything truly unfortunate could happen. Moe and Curly disguise themselves as female nurses in the movie in order to sneak into the hospital. Curly even flirts with a male employee, who falls for "her" charms! Whenever the Stooges disguised themselves as children, Larry would dress as a girl.

One short has Larry and Moe bound and gagged by the villains in a bed by the climax. Often Larry and Moe would be captured by the villains during the climax so the third Stooge (Curly/Shemp) would end up saving the day. In Who Done It?, the Stooges appear at the start bound and gagged in their office. Victims of a robbery, of course. The climax of Crime on their Hands has Shemp bound and gagged on a table by the villains as they're about to perform open surgery on him.

The Three Stooges / int_f21d434a	comment	New Job as the Plot Demands: The stooges are basically doing something different in every episode, that is when they actually have a job. Justified in that they are constantly fired due to their bumbling, and there's no continuity between shorts.

And of course in food fights everyone was fair game.

The Three Stooges / int_f438a31c	comment	Taxman Takes the Winnings: In "Healthy, Wealthy and Dumb", Curly wins $50,000 in a radio sweepstakes, and the Stooges think they have it made. That is until they find out that after taxes Curly is only left with $4.85, leaving them unable to pay for the damages to the expensive hotel they're living in. This scenario was repeated in "A Missed Fortune", a remake featuring Shemp.

The Three Stooges / int_f5a3e496	comment	Suspiciously Similar Substitute: Three actually — Joe, then Curly-Joe, and finally Emil. Joe and Curly Joe were Curly subs and Larry was replaced by Emil (whose stage name was to have been Harry.) Curly-replacing-Shemp-replacing-Curly was an aversion since Shemp and Curly were fundamentally different characters. The two Joes were subversions as well, as they had their own style and never tried to parody Curly, despite looking like him.

The Three Stooges / int_f6e10f3e	type	Big-Lipped Alligator Moment
The Three Stooges / int_f6e10f3e	comment	invoked For reasons unknown the 1960s western film 4 for Texas, which followed a semi-dramatic plot about a man running a riverboat casino and avoiding being killed in the process, stops dead near the end so that Larry, Moe and Curly-Joe can put on a brief routine, after which they disappear from the film as abruptly as they arrived. Perhaps explained by the fact that co-stars Dean Martin and Frank Sinatra were both fans of the Stooges. Sinatra also had the Stooges as guests on his 1950's TV show, as did fellow Rat-Packer Joey Bishop on his later 1960's late-night talk show.

The Three Stooges / int_f7628678	comment	Character Outlives Actor: A variant occurs after Shemp died. Moe and Larry still did four shorts, referring to Shemp — and occasionally "meeting up" with him via archive footage filmed when he was still alive. They also did some new scenes where a stand-in was used for Shemp, making sure (not always successfully) to keep his back to the camera. They had to do it for contract reasons, which had to be heartbreaking for Shemp's younger brother, Moe.

The Three Stooges / int_f9f2c33	type	Running Gag
The Three Stooges / int_f9f2c33	comment	Running Gag: More than you could shake a schtick at. However, many so-called "running gags" are actually recurring/recycled gags. One example of a bona fide running gag involves a piece of shtick in which Moe holds his clenched fist out to Curly, asks "See that?" and then either Moe or Curly slaps the fist which arcs Moe's arm around in a circle to bonk Curly on the head. This gag is repeated, with slight variations, in many consecutive shorts from 1934 onwards. However, in the 1936 short "False Alarms", the use of "See that?" becomes the subject of a running gag-breaker. When Moe first tries it, Curly says "We don't have time for that now" as the Stooges have to get away from the approaching fire chief. Then, when Moe tries it a second time, Curly grabs the fist and sticks out his tongue, "Nyah!" (but he still gets bonked). The "See that?" gag becomes less frequent after this film.

The title is a Pun-Based Title and references the long-forgotten 1936 film Valiant Is the Word for Carrie. It has no relevance whatsoever to the plot of the short.

The Three Stooges / int_fc0e4e49	comment	Styrofoam Rocks: Used quite often, though it helped sell their slapstick humor by having them survive being hit in the head with rocks or bricks with only minor pain. This is even lampshaded in Beer Barrel Polecats, when Moe and Larry are breaking rocks over Curly's head in prison while he nonchalantly sews a uniform. He stops them at one point when Moe is grabbing another rock.
