Rating:  - Buy it! 4 1/2 stars for three of the better Shemp episodes.
I would give this tape 5 stars, but then there wouldn't be any difference between these very funny Shemp episodes and the extremely fine ones, the classics, most of which had Curly.
The best on this tape, in my opinion, is "Hula-la-la" (a near classic), where three dance instructors are hired by a Hollywood Studio and sent to a South Sea Island to teach the natives to dance. (The natives just happen to be cannibals.)
In "Fuelin' Around" Larry is mistaken for a brilliant professor. Foreign spies try to get his secret formula for rocket fuel. The real professor and the spies are about as smart as the stooges themselves.
"Hot Scots" is a great skit (also nearing classic proportions), has some good jokes at the expense of the Scottish, and a good Scotland Yard spoof. McMoe, McLarry and McShemp get hired as "yard men" and end up as sleuths in a haunted Scottish castle full of McSurprises.
This one is definitely worth buying.
