Which of following three stooges character in you opinion is the funnies?

Moe Howard: The leader of pack with the weirdest (bowl) hair style.

Shemp Howard: He uses his homely appearance for hilarious comic effect.

Larry Fine: He was the middle-ground between Moe's gruff "bossiness" and Curly and Shemp's “clowniness”.

Curly Howard: With high-pitched voice and vocal expressions to match, he carried the bulk of physical comedy.

Each character can pretty much stand on their own for being the funniest, but Shemp somehow strike me as the funniest. His low key comedy (cool under pressure) approach, combined with facial expressions made for some hilarious moments.

Curley's the funniest, but Larry's my favorite.

When Shemp was drafted he crapped in his pants during the physical, on purpose, to get a 4F. Truth. I read it in Moe's autobiography.

Definately between Shemp and Curly, I'll have to land ont he Shemp side. Although the short with Moe as Hitler and Curley as Mousillini was hysterical.

My vote is for Curley, but all of them were great.

I am glad they did not include that in one of their comedy shorts LOL

The vote between Shemp and Curley seem to be too close to call. And that be as well since both are really funny. I only wished they made some shorts where all four of them be in it.

One sketch that is hilarious is when Moe wave his hand in front of face of Shemp or Curly, and their face follow the hand hypnotically unttil it hit floor couple of times. And sometimes they do it to Moe :D
