The Three Stooges were active in Hollywood for five decades, producing 190 short comedy films that vary in quality. Over time, the Stooges' lineup changed on multiple occasions, though Moe Howard and Larry Fine remained consistent for nearly 50 years. In 1934, the trio of Moe Howard, Curly Howard, and Larry Fine signed a deal with Columbia Pictures, which would become their home to produce both short films and feature movies throughout their careers, reaching popularity in the era that few comedy groups have ever achieved.
