Moe was truly the boss Stooge American treasure three stooges will always have a special place in my heart Curly and Shemp were always my favorite Moe really owned this interview bravo.
The way Moe chokes up when talking about the original Curley (his brother) really tore at my heart. Clearly talented Moe was obviously a very smart man too... Rip all the Three Stooges. We the fans still love and miss you!!
Moe basically killed Curly. All those slaps and blows to the head were more real than most people are aware of. They took their toll on Curly and eventually lead his early death.
Curly had high blood pressure which caused him to have strokes. He loved food, so he was eating pretty unhealthy. Blows to the head will most likely given him concussions and eventually he would've had aneurysms or maybe even a brain tumor/cancer. If brain truma can cause strokes. Football players, Boxers and Wrestlers should all be suffering from strokes. Especially the retired athletes. Those people get/gotten hit twice as hard and more frequently than Curly did.
I'm the same age as you and I agree, they were like no other. We used to run home after school to see the first episode at 3:30 in the afternoon. We did get carried away at times recreating scenes we saw. LoL I'll watch them every chance I get.
yes, and the host was polite and intelligent enough to actually be quiet and listen to his guest, instead of constantly interrupting and talking over him, like many do these days
Listening to this really brings tears to my eyes when I hear it. It was such a heart felt story from a man who has seen so much adversity along with the great success of his career. The look in his eyes when he speak of Curly and Shemp and the early years and the optimism of the show must go in in his voice. I only wish I was alive to see it when it aired.
@@jackaction7077 No troll comment, I was absolutley alive then and I did shake his sweaty hand. He was just finishing a show and Curley Joe, Larry and Moe were coming down the isle, I jumped up just before he got to me and I blocked the isle and stuck out my hand, he stopped and shook my hand the kept walking. I was 10 years old.
My dad took me to see Moe, Curly, and Joe at the Pomona County Fair back in the mid-60s! I was so excited (and my dad!) when Joe saw me waving and waved back! Great day! Thank you for this memory !
There were times when watching the Mary Tyler Moore show that I thought of Ted, Murray, and Lou as a 70s version of the 3 Stooges. Grumpy boss Lou, of course, was "Moe". Ted was almost as silly as Shemp or Curly, and man-in-the-middle Murray was "Larry".
My bff had her first daughter 38 years ago. She had to have an emergency C-section. I helped around the house until she was well enough to get around on her own. I asked her, "What do you want to watch?" The Three Stooges we're on KTLA channel 5 and we couldn't make it 5 minutes. We kept laughing and laughing that she couldn't take the pain of her incision. We had to change the channel. 😢
I'm so grateful for Mike Douglas booking the last surviving member of the Stooges on his show...Moe Howard's show business anecdotes were both informative and entertaining...I'll bet that if Moe hadn't lost his battle with lung cancer on May 4th, 1975, Mike would've invited him on at least 2 more times...
+paul simmons Not true..Larry,Joe Besser and "Curly Joe"De Rita were still alive..when Moe was on this show...Although Besser and De Rita and Moe were still performing during this time.
I remember back when the Stooges came on every evening on AMC in the early 2000s. My brother and I never missed an episode. We always finished our homework and ate dinner in record time so we could watch the Stooges. 😀
I didn't appreciate these men in my childhood. Not until I was an adult did I see the art and skill they had. They were tops in their field. I wish there had been less sadness in their lives and, like Laurel & Hardy, that the studios had not been so greedy with residuals and film rights etc. Rest rest gentlemen, you are still loved today. 💘🕊
Same here. Of course we all imitated them but never really hit each other! Like moe said if the child is bad he gone do bad things anyways. Don't need the stooges influence on that!
understanding that this was entertainment and not imitating what you see is the natural response... people who want to control you will say that we are too stupid to be trusted with ourselves
I grew up on the Stooges because my dad was a huge fan, and now my kids have grown up on them because of me. I've seen every episode many times and still laugh as if it were the first time I'd seen them.
THANK THE GREAT 3 STOOGES FOR MANY YEARS OF GREAT COMEDY KNOW ONE CAN COMPARE TO YOU GUYS NO ONE YOUR COMEDY WAS A GREAT SKILL MAY YOU ALL R.I.P 😀😁😂😪😭🙏
WoW! I love the stooges since I was a kid. Great memories of rushing home after school with my kid brother. He'd get the TV on while I made us bologna sandwiches for a snack. We'd laugh our butts off. And Moe, what a sweet guy he is here. Thank you for posting this. I'm gonna have to watch them all.
There can be no substitutes. I remember in the mid 1970s when the movie theaters started playing the midnight stooge fests. This was during the drug infested days when we were all wasteoids. You had 300 wasted teens lined up around the cinema on a Fri or Sat night after partying, doing eyepokes, curley chuckles, face slaps, hand waves, hair pulls and nose tweaks, all the girlfriends we dragged with us, shaking their heads disapprovingly, like we don't know these guys. We laughed so hard we didn't have stomachs left. Never any fights, tempers or egos, just hundreds of wasted teens having a blast. I mean we couldn't walk we laughed so hard from the weed, mescaline wine.... The good old days. And we were the second generation of recipients of the stooges. Our dads born in the 1930s grew up with the chuckle heads too. Thanks moe Larry curley and shemp.... For a lifetime of hilarity
Moe Howard appearances on The Mike Douglas Show in 1973,, Moe, despite his age here, was in great form as he chatted with Mike about Three Stooges History and recreated classic Stooges Moments.. Moe passed away peacefully 4 May 1975 r.i.p
my mom would always watch the late afternoon talk shows like mike douglas and merv griffin. i would get to see them sometimes when i got home from school or work. we all loved the stooges.
Ted Knight was a kid during the Depression of the 1930s. I can only imagine how much joy the Three Stooges brought to people during the difficult era. Moe Howard was a treasure as were all the stooges. May they rest in peace.
I read about an account around 1974 of a teenage boy who loved the Stooges and somehow found Moe's address . He wrote him asking if there was any chance he could meet him (expecting nothing) but to his surprise Moe invited him to his home. His parents took him and he got to meet and chat with his idol. He said it was the most thrilling time of his life. Moe even gave him some souviners and of course autographs. He must have been a nice man.
Chip, as entertaining as Moe was w/ Mike Douglas during this segment, I really wished there was an interview of "Curly" (dunno his real name). Besides, everyone loves Curly ;)
I grew up in the 50's with The 3 Stooges. They were great 👍. I watched all the slapping, pranks, etc. I'm not violent...and would not a change a thing! R.I.P.
I am 70 yrs old now and I’ve been watching The Stooges since I was about 6 yrs old. My children have always watched them and so does my granddaughter. Stooges will be FOREVER!!!!
I got to meet them in person back in 1961 when they toured Brooklyn's Walker Theatre with their new film. All us kids were hugging them and they made us feel special.
As a child of the 50s we had enough common sense to know this was humor and entertainment . Today's generation is over protected with no consequences for their actions and words. Let alone respect.
If only that were true, but every generation has had its issues with censorship. In the 1950s, Lucy on "I Love Lucy" was forbidden from using the word "pregnant" on TV and had to tell her husband Ricky that she was "expecting". Not to mention TV shows in the 50s couldn't show married couples in a double bed, they always used twin beds,. Also in 1954, a psychiatrist convinced Americans that comic books were turning America's youth into juvenile delinquents and so comic books were also censored.
I saw this show and it ended with Moe, Mike Douglas and Ted Knight having a pie fight. A truly great moment in that wonderful era of Daytime talk shows long before Springeresque sleaze. ☺
When I was 8yrs old Moe came to my cub scouts meeting in Brooklyn, pack 505 with Officer Joe Bolton a fake TV cop who ran the Stooges shorts on an afternoon kids program . He would bring Moe to these get togethers to help him with a few dollars in his later years. I've met a few celebrities in my life but Moe was #1.
Well I never got to meet a living legend, hope you had a camera with you, perhaps I spoke too soon, I was on the local Bozo show in my city back around 72 or 73 when they still had UHF channels
@@donaldleroy6502 The only real living legend I met was in 1971. I was at O'Hare Airport Chicago checking in for a flight at a service counter. They public address announced for " Mr. Jack Benny please go to a service phone"...a couple of times. Someone says "excuse me". I turn around and it's Jack Benny! My right elbow was against the service phone on the counter. I turned and saw him and I guess he could see my shock and smiled and said " Hellooo!" Like only he could. LoL It was great.
This is one of the reasons why I love CZcams. I’ve never seen an interview with any of the Stooges before and only saw them in their shows. Great to hear and see Moe outside of the show. Also great to see the great Ted Knight as well. Knight was great in Caddyshack which had an awesome cast.
Never saw this before, great stuff. When I was a kid I wrote to Moe Howard and Larry Fine and received in return handwritten letters and autographed photos. This was in the 7Os, when the Stooges were underappreciated ---Larry, unless I'm mistaken, was living in an old actors' home at the time, maybe Moe, too. Of the many things I've lost and miss, those letters are at the top of the list.
I also corresponded with Moe when I was a young kid those letters were the greatest ever! Handwritten on blue Skytooges stationary even. Moe was living at home.
@@bradtaylor5953 He and Larry were always at pains to tell kids NEVER to perform their stunts, it was all make-believe, etc. I've always had a soft spot in my heart for them since then.
Absolutely the BEST comedy trio in entertainment history! And that goes with both Shemp, Curly and the two Joes! The Three Stooges will always be loved by us lucky fans who grew up laughing at their antics! Legends of their Craft...Legends in their own time and beyond! RIP Three Stooges!!! You'll all be missed with love!!!
I met him on the boardwalk at Atlantic City back in 1963, where he was making an appearance. My brother was stunned into silence, but I can talk to anybody anytime- and he was so nice to a little 5 year old girl. He was smoking a big cigar and took several minutes to talk to me. I've never forgotten it.
The Three Stooges are part of my childhood. Next year I will sign up for Medicare, so I have been a loyal fan for many, many years. Thanks for posting this.
Geez ,, Mike Douglas was ACTUALLY the speaker at my College graduation in 1968 ... Still watch the Stooges every Saturday ....for 2 hours .....Have seen every short several dozen times .....and still laugh at every pie fight .and every nyuk , nyuk ..
What's a serious icon. As a child every day in the summer, I used to sit and watch the Three Stooges while eating my lunches. Slam Bang Theatre. I loved it.
I'm curious. Did you grow up in the Dallas area in the 60s??? Because I did and remember watching called slam bang theatre with an Mc named icky twerp.
Thank you for this, they were my childhood heroes!
Your welcome Moe is a legend
Check out Jump in the Saddle on CZcams doing the "Curly Shuffle." Nyuk,nyuk,nyuk.
Have you realized he can swear
They're still my childhood legends and I'm still a child at 56. Watch them every Saturday night at 6 PM.
The guy still is my hero! Did you hear the way he spoke out against slapstick censorship???? An American Legend that will never be forgotten.
I am Generation X, but I've watched every Stooge episode ever made. Love those guys. Heartbreaking about Curly ...
Lol now all you need to do is watch the movies and cameos they had then you'll be all caught up 😂
what happened to curly?
It's strange that Jerry ( Curly) developed dementia so young, died before he was even 50. The stroke he suffered must have been a bad one.
The Three Stooges were legends of comedy. May they RIP
Indeed, inspiration for comedians for eons... RIP!
I Loved Shemp, just wanna give him a Hug, right now... Die Hard Stooge fan... right here...
Love that !,,, thanks for that made my day
May the Stooges rest in peace. They brought much laughter to this insane world and for that we are eternally grateful.

They are in heaven now entertaining God and others and enjoying it.

The Theee Stooges made my Childhood very happy. Me and my Sister would laugh. FUN TIMES. LOVED MOE,Curly, and Larry .Shrimp as well. RIP TO ALL.
Truth Indeed
I loved this. Moe still sharp as a tack. Sadly, he would pass 2 years later. This show was taped in 1973.
Amazing man and him and the boys brought us a ton of laughter that is for sure. A true legend right here!
sounds like he was still pretty sharp in this interview.
Was he joking about Shemp being his real life older brother and Curly was his real life young brother.
the yr after I was born ..
@@matt7iron No, he wasn't joking. They were siblings, all last name Howard.
The world today certainly needs the laughter these guys gave it during the 1930s and 40s.
It was Saturday morning in Medford Mass. in the 60s and 70s watching the 3 Stooges for Me. Good I miss those days.
Moe was truly the boss Stooge American treasure three stooges will always have a special place in my heart Curly and Shemp were always my favorite Moe really owned this interview bravo.
The way Moe chokes up when talking about the original Curley (his brother) really tore at my heart. Clearly talented Moe was obviously a very smart man too... Rip all the Three Stooges. We the fans still love and miss you!!
Yup he really love his brother, especially Curley, what a guy
Curly was the youngest brother. Moe was very close to him
Moe basically killed Curly. All those slaps and blows to the head were more real than most people are aware of. They took their toll on Curly and eventually lead his early death.
Every day.
Curly had high blood pressure which caused him to have strokes. He loved food, so he was eating pretty unhealthy.

Never will be anyone or group come close to their talent or ability, am almost 70 now still watch them and love them.
Laurel and Hardy were the originals and opened the door for the stooges. Love both of them.
it's more like THOSE TIMES & AVAILABILITY OF RESOURCES AT A REASONABLE PRICE are what's gone today. It's all about $$ greed & fame
I'm the same age as you and I agree, they were like no other. We used to run home after school to see the first episode at 3:30 in the afternoon. We did get carried away at times recreating scenes we saw. LoL I'll watch them every chance I get.
The moment someone says "Never" [or "Always"]...it's just a matter of counting down before the "exception" emerges.
@@ThomasFromTN I truly hope someone of equal or greater talent emerges, we need laughter now more than ever .
How polite everyone was back then.
yes, and the host was polite and intelligent enough to actually be quiet and listen to his guest, instead of constantly interrupting and talking over him, like many do these days
Back when people acted like decent human beings and actually showed respect for one another.
I watched a video of people in the 40's in new york, they were so polite and friendly. It is sad to see what has happened over the last 30-40 years.
Listening to this really brings tears to my eyes when I hear it. It was such a heart felt story from a man who has seen so much adversity along with the great success of his career.

In about 1962 or 63 I met Moe Howard and shook his hand. He was my idol back then and still today.
Really? Wow.
Nooooooooooo!!!!
Awesome
You weren't even alive then looking at your pic🤣.. Definitely a troll comment
@@jackaction7077 No troll comment, I was absolutley alive then and I did shake his sweaty hand.

I was 10 years old.
Can you imagine talk shows where they actually let you talk? No commercial breaks in the middle, no cutting off the story. Very nice.
3 Stooges brought so much laughter and joy to millions, and never used vulgar language, or indecent scenes.
I still watch reruns
I bought the whole Stooges library on DVD......Best money I EVER spent....
Moe, Larry, Curly, Shemp, truly the greats! Still watch them today 😁
Larry was my favorite. His reactions and facial expressions cracked me up. Always watch what he's doing, you'll see
Mine as well. Larry's bewildered take on things happening around him were priceless.
Rip Moe. The three stooges are my favorite comedy team. Nyuk nyuk nyuk nyuk. Thanks for posting this.😅😂🤣
Wow Moe was on fire during this interview. I could listen to him talk all day.
Till this day I still dip my butter knife into the mashed potatoes and mix them with the peas thanks to Moe. What a treasure these guys are !
I did that when I was a kid, I didn’t know that was something that Moe did

RIP Stooges. Your laughter will endure in our hearts forever.
This is one of the only times I've seen Moe just being himself. The same with Ted Knight.
Yes, nice to see both actors without their "makeup" on.

A 50's kid here...those were the days my friend. I thought they'd never end.
Sing and dance forever and a day.
Love watching the three stooges as a kid...still do!!!
You could hurt yourself from laughing so hard when you watch 'The Stooges'.
Recently found Moe, Curly and Shemp were my second cousins! Never knew for over 50 years!
I love it " 23 and Three Stooges" lol 👍
Never saw this before, great stuff. When I was a kid I wrote to Moe Howard and Larry Fine and received in return handwritten letters and autographed photos. This was in the 7Os, when the Stooges were underappreciated ---Larry, unless I'm mistaken, was living in an old actors' home at the time, maybe Moe, too. Of the many things I've lost and miss, those letters are at the top of the list.
Oh wow
The Stooges were funny. My Grandfather watched them and my friend Mike likes them alot, even has them on his answering machine !
I also corresponded with Moe when I was a young kid those letters were the greatest ever! Handwritten on blue Skytooges stationary even. Moe was living at home.
@@bradtaylor5953 He and Larry were always at pains to tell kids NEVER to perform their stunts, it was all make-believe, etc. I've always had a soft spot in my heart for them since then.
Luv this. These comics had so much Talent!!!
Moe Howard a legend he remembered his whole stooge life good memory wish they were still around
Me and my dad watched the three stooges every morning before he took me to school
Classic! I really enjoyed watching the 3 stooges! Thank you 👏👏👏👏
How awesome it would be to sit down with moe or curly in their old age and listen to their stories.
Absolutely the BEST comedy trio in entertainment history! And that goes with both Shemp, Curly and the two Joes! The Three Stooges will always be loved by us lucky fans who grew up laughing at their antics! Legends of their Craft...Legends in their own time and beyond! RIP Three Stooges!!! You'll all be missed with love!!!
Amazing footage. Never have seen Moe talk about stooges outside of the shorts. Much thanks for this. I grew up on the stooges as we all did. wonderful
Agreed. Mike Douglas was a trail blazer. Had so many wonderful guests and moments.
I met him on the boardwalk at Atlantic City back in 1963, where he was making an appearance. My brother was stunned into silence, but I can talk to anybody anytime- and he was so nice to a little 5 year old girl. He was smoking a big cigar and took several minutes to talk to me. I've never forgotten it.
My mom watched Micheal Douglas in the afternoon wheni was very young. I remember seeing this appearance. This is amazing!
The stooges are so underrated. They need more praise.
If being the greatest comedy team in American history is underrated 🤔
Lady in a car says to Moe I'm in a terrible dilemma, Moe answers, I don't think much of these foreign cars either.
The Three Stooges are part of my childhood. Next year I will sign up for Medicare, so I have been a loyal fan for many, many years. Thanks for posting this.
I love that man. The stooges were the best! They and Monty Python were the biggest influences of my young life.
This is absolutely priceless! Even touching on today’s topics
I wish I could have met Moe and Larry when they were still alive.
Geez ,, Mike Douglas was ACTUALLY the speaker at my College graduation in 1968 ... Still watch the Stooges every Saturday ....for 2 hours .....Have seen every short several dozen times .....and still laugh at every pie fight .and every nyuk , nyuk ..
Two comedy geniuses, Moe and Ted, cool man both so very funny. Thank you both for making us laugh ☮️
I spent many happy days laughing at them.. laughing is good for the soul. Thank you.. thank you very much.. ❤️
My childhood started flashing before me.
We really need guys like this. Wish I was born a few years earlier so I could see these guys .....and be gone b4 all this nonsense
MeTV still has the 3 stooges shows on TV. I watched them as a kid and still love them at the age of 77.
Would love to have a beer with Moe and listen to his stories. The guy is fascinating.
Ass a kid they were my favorite. Now, my favorite show was, "DR. MOE, DR. LARRY DR. CURLEY".
What's a serious icon. As a child every day in the summer, I used to sit and watch the Three Stooges while eating my lunches. Slam Bang Theatre. I loved it.
I'm curious. Did you grow up in the Dallas area in the 60s??? Because I did and remember watching called slam bang theatre with an Mc named icky twerp.
