2000: ABC Debuts its Three Stooges Biopic
The Farrelly brothers aren’t the only Hollywood superstars to shine a spotlight on the Three Stooges. Today in 2000, ABC debuted its own Stooges film, executive produced by Mel Gibson. The Three Stooges offered a dramatized look at the famed comedy group’s ups and downs, told through the eyes of Moe (played by Paul Ben-Victor). The film also starred Evan Handler as Larry, Michael Chiklis as Curly and John Kassir -- the voice of The Crypt Keeper in HBO's Tales from the Crypt -- as Shemp. You can see the entire film for free,
