The THREE STOOGES - Ep. 23 - BackToTheWoods 

Larry: all for one Moe: one for all Curly: every man for himself 😂😂😂

They did the NBC jingle! lol

1:22 Judge: Order! Order! Curly: Order? I’ll take a ham sandwich. Judge: Hold thy tongue! Curly: Not tongue, ham.

I feel they captured the quiet dignity of the indigenous people

1:14 NBC Chime Theme. 😂

Moe: Fire at Will! Curly: Which one is Will?

Nyuk, nyuk, nyuk

"I'll be back before thou can say Ticonderoga. If thou can't say Ticonderoga."

This one used to be on all the time when they ran 3 stooges shorts at 11 pm on the family channel. It never gets old

When I used to watch this as a kid in the Sixties I didn't get the cultural references. The two racehorses mentioned, _Whopper_ and _Rosemont_ were two actual thoroughbreds. The latter was most famous for defeating the popular horse _Seabiscuit_ in 1937. Also Larry's reference to being in the "WPA" which he says stands for *Willing Pilgrims Association* but audiences at the time would know those initials stood for The *Works Progress Administration* a New Deal program under Roosevelt. The WPA supplied paid jobs to the unemployed during the Great Depression in the United States, while building up the public infrastructure of the US, such as parks, schools, and roads. Most of the jobs were in construction, building more than 620,000 miles (1,000,000 km) of streets and over 10,000 bridges, in addition to many airports and much housing. New York's LaGuardia Airport is a WPA project that's still around. Also part of the WPA was a grant for Orson Welles and the Mercury Theater to put on plays

11:59-12:01 We’re trapped like rats. You gettin personal?

10:10 FIRE IN THE HOLE! 🦃

Great comedy team ❤

My dad still laughs at when Moe breaks character & starts talking with present-day vocabulary around 4:28-4:34. As a kid, I never thought about that & it wasn't until I got a little bit older when I finally caught wind of it & asked him about it.

LOVE the SOUND EFFECTS!!! The SILLINESS is just BRILLIANT 😂. LOVE IT ❤.

Judge: Ye are accused of doing battle with his Majesty's guards. What say ye to the charge? Larry: I can explain, judge. You see-eth, it was like this-eth... Judge: Guilty! I sentence ye to Newcape Prison for 40 years! Ye to 45! Ye to 50! Larry: 40? Moe: 45? Curly: 50? I got 50. 50. 50, 50, 50, 50, do I hear 55, do I hear 55? Going once, twice, do I hear 55? Who'll make it 55? Judge: I shall! Curly: Thank you. I... Woo! Judge: 55 years for the lot of ye at hard labor! Prosecutor: But, your lordship, t'would cost the crown a pretty penny to feed yon wastrels for 55 years! Why not send them to our colonies in America to fight the redskin savage? Curly: Mmm, I just love corned beef and savage! Judge: Silence! I now sentence ye knaves to defend our colonists from the savages! Moe: Gadzooks! They'll scalp us alive! Curly: Not me! Nyuk nyuk nyuk nyuk nyuk!

6:58-7:12 Boston Downs, weather clear, track fast, first race Whopper 2-1. They're off! Who's in the quarter? Whopper! Who's in the half? Whopper! Who's in the stretch? Whopper! Who's the winner? Rosemont! Who's the winner? Rosemont.

12:24 Screaming 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Curly: Well since there's no place around the place, I reckon this must be the place, I reckon 😂😂😂

5:41 - 6:02 Curly getting kicked in the butt by Moe and Larry, while dancing always cracks me up! 🤣🤣🤣🤣

The first Stooges short to re-use old footage; the canoe scene at the end is from Whoops, I'm an Indian! (1936), which was why they changed clothes before boarding the canoe (to match the footage - "On with the disguises!"). The tune when they drop balls connected to their chains is the NBC theme. The music box tune that the Stooges and female Pilgrims dance to is Beethoven's Minuet in G Major, WoO 10, No. 2. Larry's (Larry Fine) reference to the WPA would have been familiar to audiences in 1937 as the federal government had established a "Works Progress Administration" to hire millions of job seekers to carry out public work projects during the economic Great Depression of the 1930s. The firearms the Stooges are carrying when they arrive in the American colonies are exaggerated versions of a "blunderbuss". This firearm functioned like a shotgun, with the gun shooting a load of projectiles that spread out upon leaving the barrel. The story has no ending. The Stooges escape with their lives, but they leave the situation worse for the starving colonists, with the natives worked up, openly hostile, and thirsting for revenge.

This episode is in my top 10. Larry's legs between the tree One paddle across the lake . Classic !.

They dance so gracefully. Good decent gentleman.

His “wail” at 12:24 gets me every time 🤣🤣🤣

One of the best episodes by far. Such high energy.

🤣 YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEES!

Moe: Fire at will Curly: Which one is will.😂🤣😂🤣

Happy Thanksgiving

Moe: toose !

Much like with Whoops, I'm An Indian!, Back To The Woods would not be deemed politically correct these days, and I can imagine it being more controversial than the former due to it's depiction of Native Americans. All that is completely understandable, but I actually really like this short. The opening scene with the trio's trial is humorous, and it's interesting how their sentence is chosen. I can imagine some finding that the dancing scene goes on for too long, but I find it to be just the right length, and it's funny how it ends so abruptly. Many enjoyable gags follow, making for an enjoyable experience. I don't really have an issue with stock footage being used at the end, as it's minimal and they added a different sound effect anyway. It's a short I really enjoyed back in the day and still do to this day. Where it ranks for me: #13
