There's always time for the Puddin Heads.
I saw a clip of The Three Stooges performing their act on an episode of The Frank Sinatra Show from 1960, and it was incredibly unfunny. Their humour requires the stock sound effects.
Poking a guy in the eye isn't funny. Poking a guy in the eye with the violin bow note is hilarious. Twisting a guy's nose isn't funny. Twisting a guy's nose with the sound of a ratchet is. Unless one is a woman, of course. All they see is the violence.
