I abso-bleeping-lutely love this, and find it as funny or funnier than many of the Stooges shorts.

As a Stooges fan for over fifty years, it's gut-busting hilarious to see Moe, Shemp and Larry (not to mention the amazing Emil Sitka, along with the rest of this pilot's supporting cast) do their shtick on live TV. I also saw them live when I was a kid, but that's another story.

This is pure gold to a Shemp fan like myself (he was always my favorite Stooge), and many thanks to Video Cellar for the great contribution to the Archive!

It's not hard to see why this pilot failed, it doesnt even come close to the quality and humor of the Stooges Columbia shorts..

The ABC Network would of had their butts sued off by the FCC if they aired a show with 11 Minutes of commercials back in 1949.

(True, there were infomercials like "Tales of the Red Caboose", but prime time major TV shows were heavily restricted in how many commercials they could have)

It's still very funny though. The pacing is so fast, it makes my neck hurt.

Thank you, Video-Cellar, for uploading this.
