A proposed pilot for a Three Stooges television series that never aired. Moe, Larry, Shemp as paperhangers that destroy Emil Sitka’s home!
Jerks of All Trades (1949) starring the Three Stooges (Moe, Larry, Shemp), Emil Sitka, Symone Boniface
A proposed pilot for a Three Stooges television series that never aired. It features Moe Howard, Larry Fine and Shemp Howard as paperhangers who destroy Emil Sitka‘s home. A cute episode. My favorite part is “the great state of (clap clap clap) Texas”. If you see the episode, you’ll understand the joke.

- Filmed on October 12, 1949. This pilot for ABC TV was never broadcast, and was unseen by the public until producer Phil Berle made it available in the 1990s. It made its DVD debut in 1999.
- Due to being shot before a live audience, no sound effects are used when the Stooges are hitting one another.
