Which of these guys captures the true you?

I've never seen anything they did.

We had different childhoods, you and I.

Thought you had some class

[Rain Man]

I had no idea there were two Joes, but I will say that the Curly Joe era was a low point for the institution.

By the time the two Joe's came along, Moe and Larry were getting fairly old

Yeah, the Stooges weren't big in England (I guess).

How about Benny Hill?

[Donger]

How about Benny Hill?

Sure.

[Zebedee DuBois]

I should elaborate that I didn't want it to be a popularity contest, because I think Curly would win in a runaway. I think each stooge captures a little different slice of humanity, and anyone with a sense of humor could identify with one of them. Perhaps, I should have included Benny Hill for Donger.

nyuk, nyuk, nyuk.

(I added the Benny Hill reference without knowledge of the previous two posts, I Swear!)

moe was the brains. curly howard was the best...larry fine, the most talented. shemp, the nicest guy. joe besser was a big pussy who shouldn't ever had made it to be a stooge. refused to take any hits, which put all the shit on poor old larry. curly joe was just kind of there after all the classic stuff was done. he didn't even interested in the 3 stooges.

fuck joe besser...stooge my ass.
sec

I think all were from Burlesque (not sure about Curly Joe DeRita) Each act had something a little different

[Zebedee DuBois]

Early polling shows no Moes!
Interesting, because I think we've got some Moes around here.

this thread'll drop like a rock, cause everyone's at the baseball game.

I would identify with Basil Fawlty.I love Fawlty Towers as much as the next guy, but that show would've been hella boring as a kid.

Oh and Curly was great, but without Moe's methods of abuse, he wouldn't be nearly as funny. Moe was clearly the best.

respectfully disagree...curly was funny as hell doing solo scenes. pretty damn coordinated too.

edit* that said, moe was hilarious in his own way.

[alnorth]

I'm not old at all, but I watched some stooges when I was really young. Classic show, dumb humor. Moe all the way.

Moe was a bully and a faux intelluctual. Sorry, but I call 'em like I see 'em.

[milkman]

Can't say I identify with any of them.

I think I identify more with Lou Costello of Abbott and Costello.

I just realized something.

Now I know what Charlie Weis did before his coaching career.

[Simply Red]

I've never seen anything they did.

Benny Hill BEEYOTCH!!!!!!!!! Titties for the win

[JohninGpt]

Now I know what Charlie Weis did before his coaching career.

And they paid him an assload of money to move on.

[KcMizzou]

Benny Hill BEEYOTCH!!!!!!!!! Titties for the winBenny Hill may have been responsible for the first exposed titty I saw as a young boy.

[Ace Gunner]

......you callin me a stooge?

[Rain Man]

Benny Hill may have been responsible for the first exposed titty I saw as a young boy.

It seems like maybe there were two versions of Benny Hill, one PG and the other one R. Because I watched for a quite a while on mainstream TV never actually seeing anything (though almost seeing a lot - quite the tease those women were), and then I innocently watched it on cable during a "free cable weekend" promotion, and all of a sudden there were topless women riding around on motor scooters and running around chasing Benny and all sorts of other stuff. This was back in the 80s, so like you, it may have been my first mammary sightings ever, and it fueled a hobby that I still enjoy today.

Now that I think about it, I bet they were clipping the booby parts on the mainstream TV episodes.

[Rain Man]

And by the way, I went with Larry because he's the most sensitive and intellectual stooge, and that's kind of how I envision myself. Woowoowoo!
