The Three Stooges are one of the most popular comedic ensembles of all time, especially in the United States, where they are virtually an institution. In the rest of the world their popularity and fame are not as huge as Laurel and Hardy.
But a sure sign of the tremendous effect they had on popular culture is that most American films, comic strips, animated cartoons and TV series will feature a Three Stooges shout-out at one point. Most of the time their typical catch phrases and sound effects will be uttered ("Nyuk, nyuk, nyuk", "Wiseguy, eh?", "You numb chucks", "Soitenly", "Woob Woob Woob", "I'm a victim of circumstance", "You knucklehead",...) and three characters will mimic typical Stooges shticks by starting to bicker and hit each other with typical nosetwirls, pokes-in-the-eye, a hollow sound whenever a head is hit,...

The Pretender had a few:
During the first season, Jarod discovered The Three Stooges for the first time, sitting in a diner. He later makes a video of himself doing Curly's schtick to taunt Miss Parker.
In the second season premiere, Jarod was posing as a medical school professor named Dr. Howard. One of his colleagues was Dr. Fein.

The Simpsons:
In "Bart the Daredevil", Dr. Hibbert says a lot of children imitate violence they saw on TV: "I won't even subject you to the horrors of our Three Stooges ward."
Homer watches them on TV in "Homer the Heretic" and chuckles: "Moe is their leader."
In "Duffless", Bart tries in vain to touch an electric buzzer with being electro shocked. He imitates Curly by saying "eeeh, certainly...nyak nyak nyak" and imitates Moe by saying "...a wise guy eh?...."
In "Bart's Comet", Skinner shows Bart the star sign of the Three Wise Men. In Bart's imagination he sees the Three Stooges in the sky.
In "Treehouse of Horror IV", Bart notices vampires behind him and Lisa. He starts making sounds that Lisa mistakenly believes to be imitations of Shemp and Curly.
In "Last Exit to Springfield" and "Deep Space Homer", Homer walks sideways on the ground making "Woob Woob Woob" noises, as Curly used to do. A bomb in the Schoolhouse Rock! parody in "The Day the Violence Died" also makes this noise.
In "Bart the Fink", Troy McClure mentions a previous show business funeral he hosted called "Shemp Howard: Today We Mourn a Stooge".
In "This Little Wiggy", Nelson imagines himself weighing the brains on the Three Stooges.
In "Sunday Cruddy Sunday", Homer, Wally and Chief Wiggum run away from Rupert Murdoch in typical Stooges fashion.
In "The Mansion Family", the doctor diagnoses Mr. Burns with "Three Stooges Syndrome", meaning that he has a multitude of medical conditions, but because they all cancel each other out, they can't harm him. The doctor likens the situation to The Three Stooges all trying to go through a doorway at the same time.
In "Weekend At Burnsie's", Homer gets addicted to medicinal marijuana and in one scene, he hangs out with Otto and they watch some Three Stooges shorts together. Towards the end, Mr. Burns gets into a slapping match with Homer and Smithers a la the Stooges.
In "Large Marge", former presidents Jimmy Carter, George H. W. Bush and Bill Clinton paint a house and start creating havoc à la The Three Stooges, with Bush as Moe, Carter as Larry, and Clinton as Curly.
In "Mr. Spritz Goes to Washington", Homer and Bart are watching a very late episode of The Three Stooges where the comedians are in old age.
In "Simpsons Christmas Stories", the Three Wise Men behave like the Three Stooges.
In "Lost Verizon", during the flashback scene at Machu Picchu, the city's soldiers flee in panic from the conquistadores in typical Stooges fashion. The last one to flee whoops like Curly as he runs away.
In "Boy Meets Curl", the National Curly Trials are seen with everyone practicing to be Curly Howard. Moe Szyslak then says: "Wise guys, eh?" and slaps a long line of Curlys.
In "The Ten-Percent Solution", the Museum of TV and Television has a display of the Three Stooges' skeletons, with Curly's bones in a box.

Squid Girl has three MIT scientists: Harris, Clark, & Martin. Other characters refer to them as "the three stooges" (lit. "San Baka Trio", or the "Three-Idiot Trio"note The English translation was made official when Cindy specifically calls them "The Three Stooges" in the memetically famous "English" episode.).

Looney Tunes: In what is probably the earliest shout-out. the Porky Pig cartoon Wholly Smoke (1938) has three cigars resembling the Three Stooges rise out of a cigar box and each one gives him an eyepoke.
Another Porky short, Porky in Wackyland has a three-headed human like character with similar haircuts for each head who fight with itself in a similar way.
Porky's Hero Agency as Medusa turning three short versions of the Stooges to stone in the positions of "see no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil."

In one episode of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (1987) Shredder awakens a spirit of an ancient Foot clan ninja master claiming to be the current grandmaster of the Foot clan. Splinter calls him out on this saying that Shredder does not know the Foot clan's most powerful and secret technique, the "Kur-Li Maneuver". Splinter then proves that he is a true master of the Foot style by performing the "Kur-Li Maneuver" in which he hypnotizes Shredder, paralyzing him, and then begins slapping Shredder around while doing his best Curly impression.

Not only do the names of a trio of bosses in the international versions of Final Fantasy VI, Laragom, Moebius, and Curlax, sound very similar to the names of the Stooges themselves, but the trio even goes as far as to call themselves "The Dream Stooges".
In fact, they were explicitly called Larry, Moe, and Curly in the original US release, Final Fantasy III. However, they're simply called The Three Brothers of Dream: Sogno, Sueño, and Rêve note which means "dream" in Italian, Spanish, and French respectively in Japan.

Played with regarding Corabell, Dorabell, and Mae in “The Seven.� The first two examples play the trope straight, being names of the Stooges’ wives in Dizzy Doctors and The Sitter Downers. Subverted in that the third dog’s name is Mae instead of Florabell.

SCTV had John Candy who did a dead-on Curly, teaming with Eugene Levy as Moe, and Joe Flaherty as Larry (also seen in the one-man show 'Give 'em Hell, Larry')...Candy would also incongruously play Curly as the lead in 'Ben-Hur'.

Red vs. Blue has two references: when O'Malley mentions that " this fellow will make an excellent stooge. And I'm the one here with the most experience training Stooges.", Lopez replies with 'Nyuk, nyuk'; and much later, Lopez and his successor Lopez 2.0 are described by Sarge as "a couple of Three Stooges".

Mystery Science Theater 3000:
In the Gamera vs Zigra episode, the Mads invent "Three Stooges Guns", one of which shoots out an eye-poking hand, which the other blocks.
One of the exercises that can be performed on the Square Master in the Warrior of the Lost World episode works out your "Shemp area". This is done, apparently, by lying on your side and spinning around, making a silly noise.
The last riff of the Sci-Fi channel years had the movie's "Fine" end credit greeted by a joke that it was the official biopic of Larry Fine.

My World… and Welcome to It:
The last of the three fights between John's grandfather and a bully of similar age who is trying to force him to pay an illegal bridge toll is especially cartoonish, heavily reminiscent of The Three Stooges. Here, John's grandfather bests his tormentor with a series of pokes to the eye interspersed with punches and nose tweaks before pushing him into the river. Occurs in "The Mating Dance."
In "The Night the House Caught Fire," a group of clumsy and clueless firemen respond to the call and wreck the downstairs of the house with axes and water from a fire hose (without determining whether there was a fire or not — and it turns out there isn't). The gung-ho lead fireman is played by Joe Besser, best known nowadays as a member of The Three Stooges during the 1950s. Besser also plays the equally overzealous head policeman in "Darn That Dream," who answers a call to John's boyhood home accompanied by a gaggle of cops. He arrests John and his family, convinced they're intruders.

Hey Arnold! has Curly, one of Arnold's classmates, who shares Curly's name and Moe's haircut. He's also one of the most unhinged kids seen on the series (and that's saying a lot).
Eugene's surname is Horowitz, which is the same real-life surname of the Howard brothers (Moe, Curly and Shemp Howard were named in real life Moses, Jerome and Samuel Horowitz).

The Critic: In Frank and Ellie Get Lost, a flashback to Franklin and Eleanor's marriage shows the first time that Franklin drank, and also when his Cloudcuckoolander attitude started. Once he drinks, he starts imitating Curly's sounds and walking in circles routine. Kennedy and Eistein are there in the role of Moe and Larry, respectively. There's even a snooty fat lady to throw pies at!

Friends: In "The One Where Ross and Rachel Take a Break", Ross' clumsy attempts to have a picnic in Rachel's office in the middle of her taking calls about a shipping mix-up has her saying over the phone "I'm sorry, I'll have to call you back. There's a Shemp in my office."

The Wrong Reflection: Eleya comes aboard a mirror universe Cardassian ship and tells the gul in command to "have Larry, Curly, and Moe point those toys [referring to their disruptor rifles] someplace else". Lampshaded when one of the Mauve Shirts with her wonders where in the heck Eleya, a Bajoran, heard of The Three Stooges. Eleya continues to refer to the trio of mooks as Larry, Curly, and Moe for the remainder of the chapter.

Youtuber Solid jj has a video series called "Stoogeposting," where he does voice impressions of the Stooges in brief shorts. At the beginning, he just adapted modern henway jokes like "Deez Nuts," but ended up taking them into the direction of original content more in line with their classic humor.

In an episode of Night Court, Bull decides to get a toupee. While browsing a catalog and passing over more expensive toups (such as the "Shatner Turbo 2000"), the salesman suggests one of their economy hairpieces: the "Shemp."
