The Three Stooges have been cracking up movie and TV audiences with their antics for 94 years. From their start in films with Ted Healy in the early 1930's, through their glory days with Columbia, to their own feature films in the 1960's - the Stooges film career spanned over forty years, and they're still popular today!
There are a total of 1235 short subjects, feature films and other media in our Filmography that had one or more of the Stooges appearing in the cast. We have logged every film appearance the Three Stooges - all six of them (seven when you count Ted Healy!) - ever made, including their solo appearances, and their radio and TV guest appearances as well. We have even logged 322 different tributes to the Stooges made in films or on television.
