It's about time the Stooges work was released in chronological order! It's fascinating to see the evolution of their humor and gags. I think it puts a whole new light on the boys. Totally worth it.

I was originally annoyed at the fact that there was going to be YET ANOTHER collection of The Three Stooges episodes. As a die hard fan, I felt I had no choice but to try it out. This collection, by far, is the best I've seen.
I wish these could have been released many years ago! That sure would have saved me a lot of money.
I've been a Stooge fan since I was a kid (my whole family are fans today). The Three Stooges go from being on the air to off the air quite often. And so, a collection like this is a must for serious fans.

If you love the Three Stooges and are tired of watching them in their butchered, commercial interrupted TV format, then you should purchase this DVD along with the subsequent volumes. Even though I've probably seen each Stooge episode hundreds of times over the past 40 years or so, watching an unedited, uninterrupted version is like seeing it for the first time. I'm pretty sure that each episode I've watched so far has had at least one scene or sequence that no longer makes it to TV. Not only that but the quality of the video and audio is noticeably improved over what you used to seeing on the old TV versions of their shorts. Best of all, you can watch Curley episode after Curley episode without having to sit through one with Shemp, Curley Joe or Joe. If only Curley had taken better care of himself. Even a Stooge has his bad habits.

OK OK, so it's the 3 Stooges... low-brow humor. However, back when they started (in 1934), they were pretty good (relatively speaking). There are actually a few really clever sight-gags. You'll likely recognize many of these shorts (typically less than 15 minutes each). Of course, it helps that Curly was in his prime. The short musical "The Women Haters" is one of the better films on this first DVD; the entire script rhymes! The quality is superb (and somebody sure must have put some effort into cleaning these or obtaining super pure originals).

I waited until something of quality like this came out and I'm glad. The point of the Three Stooges is not so much about the violence, but about how silly it can be to observe Murphy's Law in action. Those who are sensitive to racial or sexist jokes might want to stay away though. It's a product of its time. The Three Stooges are a marvel of perfect comic timing, though. Sometimes I forget it's not a cartoon, but real people.
