The Three Stooges Show

Show generally

Character mistake: In "Boobs In Arms" (1940), the Three Stooges are in the Army. On the back of Curly's uniform is an advertisement for "soup, salad, entree, coffee, desert" at O'Brien's Kosher Restaurant. "Dessert" is misspelled.

Character mistake: In "Movie Maniacs," the Three Stooges arrive in Hollywood via train, sneak into a movie studio and walk onto the set of a movie being filmed. A starlet looks at Curly and says, "Oh, Mr. Howard." There is no way she could have known his name.

Other mistake: In "Violent Is The Word For Curly" (1938), the Stooges are mistaken for college professors. They are teaching a group of students at the all-girls school Mildew College to sing "Swingin' The Alphabet." During the song, the girls sing "Curly's a dope." The dean had introduced the three men as Professors Feinstein, Frankfurter and VonStupor - so how did the girls know Curly's name?
