Editorial Review:
Amazon.com:
"Listen, Judge" (1952, short number 138 in the Columbia series) uses for the nth time the scenario of a judge dismissing a case only to find the same person(s) wrecking his home. Here a judge (Vernon Dent) finds the Stooges acting as cook, butler, and waiter who inevitably destroy his chances for reelection and his living room via a gas-filled birthday cake. There is the expected and no longer funny routine of "stuffing a turkey" with oyster shells, unopened cans, and so on. Again, it is the Stooges versus high society--and the former have nothing to lose.
"Bubble Trouble" (1953, number 151) should be titled "Remake Trouble." A good deal of footage is taken from 1947's "All Gummed Up," up to the point when the landlord (Emil Sitka) takes the boys' rejuvenation potion, and instead of shrinking as in the first version he turns into a gorilla to give us a different ending. It is a joy to see blonde Christine McIntyre finally get to do some Stooging herself, although the long "bubblegum on the cake" routine does outlive its humor.
"Dunked in the Deep" (1949, number 119) would be pirated for a remake a few years later after Shemp's death and called "Commotion on the Ocean." Here a foreign spy puts some secret documents into watermelons (what they hold is of no concern) and has the three bring them to a ship on which they find they are stowaways. By now, Moe has taken on the Curly expression "Oh, a backbiter" while Shemp uses the very funny Curly slow walk across the set in the midst of an otherwise swift chase. Lack of any real plot calls for such fillers as Shemp trying to get into a hammock and the running gag of his being soaked each time he looks out a porthole. --Frank Behrens

This tape features three later shorts from the Stooge's careers and uses Shemp as the third Stooge to compliment Moe and Larry.
The first short, Listen, Judge, features classic puns and slapstick humor, though all of it is not violent. The Stooges act out a familiar scenario when they wreck a house as fix-its and then decide to make up for it as waiters. Shemp displays some Curly-like mannerisms here and Larry shines in a subtle way during his scenes.

LISTEN JUDGE, BUBBLE TROUBLE, and DUNKED IN THE DEEP. Good shorts. The best one on the tape is LISTEN,JUDGE. Columbia Tristar has finally release a Shemp remake, BUBBLE TROUBLE. Every short on this tape is somehow reworked from an earlier short.
LISTEN, JUDGE (1952) is basically a reworking of AN ACHE IN EVERY STAKE (1941). The original short was better, but this was still great. This short also copies the beginning of A-PLUMBING WE WILL GO (1940) with the "flimsy cases" gag. The electricity ... Read More

LISTEN, JUDGE (1952) - Pretty average. The plot is basically a combo of A PLUMBING WE WILL GO, THEY STOOGE TO CONGA, and AN ACHE IN EVERY STAKE with lots of reused gags from them. Not one of Edward Bernds' better or more original efforts, but still okay.
BUBBLE TROUBLE (1953) - Absolutely pathetic remake of ALL GUMMED UP. Seriously, I never thought much of GUMMED to begin with, and 98% of this remake is just reused footage from that. Up until the last 3 minutes a lame new plot twist is involved, ... Read More

Three shorts: DUNKED IN THE DEEP; BUBBLE TROUBLE; and LISTEN JUDGE. Outstanding plots, weak construction by Eddie Bernds.
