One of latest shows of The Three Stooges and Joe Besser is great replacing Curly and Shemp, they receives a message from the bankrupt father asking to them some help, they headed to his father's ranch searching for Uranium, at cottage they have they great funniest scene in this short on a bunkbed at sleep time, another was on the rocks when Moe and Larry were handling with the dynamite to explode when Joe tries warning Moe for something, Moe doesn't wants to hear nothing, then Joe sit down on ignition key, what a blast, later they find...well see by yourself, unfortunately just few shows went to sales on official DVD, they easily could put the whole catalogue on sale to an small dealer, in my opinion it has a strong market to explore!!

I believe that this remake short is far better than the original short, which featured Curly. The original Curly short has a dragging opening scene in a barn, and a terrible joke in which Curly says, as the Stooges are about to drive off a cliff, "Don't look now, but I think we're about to be killed.

This short is a somewhat remake from the Classic Curly short Oily to Bed, Oily to Rise, which was released in 1939 when the boys were hitting their prime, the stooges father is in need of a serious operation and like what happened to Curly in the aforementioned 'Rise' Joe makes a wish and it comes true, Moe tells Joe that he thinks that he's haunted and Joe says 'I'm SCAAARREEEEDDDD'.

I agree to the person that said joe was haunted.the funniest thing in that one was the bunkbed scene and i was expecting them to have a bunk accident like curly always did like in sweet pie and pie,g.

The Three Stooges has always been some of the many actors that I have loved. I love just about every one of the shorts that they have made.

Whenever we are feeling rather low we put on a "Stooge" to lift our royal spirits. As a rule we avoid a selection from the Joe Besser stooge catalog.

Yes, there are a couple of good scenes in this one, and I do mean only two. The uranium mining scene and the bunks scene.

This short comedy has some good moments during the kind of complicated mix-up that Leon Errol's short comedies often have. This is not one of the best ones, since it takes more time than usual to set things up, and then even after that it has some slow stretches.
