The Three Stooges may not be a part of the modern American cultural zeitgeist, but they sure were relevant for the bulk of the 20th century. The vaudeville and comedy team were active from 1922 to 1970. Their unique brand of slapstick humor was featured in 190 short subject films produced by Columbia Pictures.

Throughout that epic 5-decade run, six actors portrayed the Stooges, although only three were active at any given moment. Moe Howard and Larry Fine were mainstays throughout the comedy trio's history. The third Stooge would initially be played by Shemp Howard, then later Curly Howard.

After Curly, Shemp Howard would take another turn as a Stooge before Joe Besser was called in to replace him. Besser was by far the least popular actor to ever hold the Stooge title. The sixth and final Stooge was Joe 'Curly Joe' DeRita who replaced Besser for a new series and feature-length film.

Several attempts have been made to revive The Three Stooges franchise in the last several decades – the most notable reboot of the once beloved franchise being the Farrely brother's 2012 Three Stooges film. While that film was considered to be a box office success and a sequel is rumored to be in the works, fans of The Three Stooges don't consider it to be canon. As such, we're not going to consider the actors who played the title characters in that film as being official 'Stooges'.

In this video, we're going to be discussing the actors who played the Three Stooges' significant others. Join Facts Verse as we take some time to look at the astonishing real-life wives of what just might be the most iconic and influential comedy trio of all time.
