The Stooges got their name and their start in an act called The Healy and His Stooges.This act began paving the way for their exceedingly successful career,Originally,the team was composed of Larry,Moe and Shemp,However,Shemp left for a career in more serious movies.When Shemp left,Curly took his place.Shemp's clumsy character returned in 1946 after Curly suffered a stroke .
Moe was the heart and soul of the team ,acting as both their main comic force and their director .He was responsible for scripting many of the jokes,He'd also spend time providing his services as their business manager.In 1934 the team began a series of comedy shorts that numbered more than 200 when they ceased in 1958,when won them numerous fans.Despite all the criticism ,the There Stooges are undoubtedly the most famous comedy team that history ever invented
