 "The
Stooges' Lost Episodes"
by Tom & Jeff Forrester
Contemporary Books, 1988
Women are from Venus,
Men are from Stoogeville. As every true bachelor will confirm, there are
none better than the holy trinity of Moe, Larry, and Curly (Shemp/Joe Besser/Curly
Joe). The authors used bloodhound tenacity to find information about these
"lost episodes" and to lead readers where to find copies. The book traces
forgotten episodes from their earliest days with Ted Healy (when they were
known as the Racketeers) to their final movie Kooks' Tour
(1969). Besides finding forgotten films featuring the trio, the Stooges'
Lost Episodes also lists solo appearences/projects that each of
the boys had. A quick scan over the index will surprise one just how many
films have been lost, and will warm the heart of every true fan that they
are found again. Most of theses "lost episodes" can be found at any good
video store, and, speaking from personal experience, well worth the experience.
