Dizzy Detectives (1943)

Another Hilarious Stooge Short With A Cat

[10/10 · 15 December 2015]

I am making an observation here. I notice that if there is a cat in a comedy scene in a Stooges short that I always laugh at loud at that particular short even if the cat isn't in that particular funny scene. I'm a big cat lover so I always notice cats in their films. In this case there is a rocking chair vs cat's tail scene that made me laugh until the end, it was just one of the scenes here that had me really laughing. The lifted carpenter part is just the funniest thing they ever did, but also the boys had some really good lines here. Curley goes thats a chimp, Larry goes thats a gorilla you chump, is just one of them. As far as other episodes I laughed out loud at with cats in them, I can think of the exterminator skits, Ants In The Pants and remade Shemp version Pest Man Wins, and in the kitchen scene with Larry in Malice In the Palace. This short, even though some of it and the material is recycled is still one of the best. 10 of 10.
