Since we've been discussing the Shemp shorts on a weekly basis now, what would you consider to be your ten favorites?

*My list would be:

Self-Made Maids
Goof On The Roof
Scrambled Brains
Heavenly Daze
Brideless Groom
Who Done It?
Three Dark Horses
Listen Judge
The Tooth Will Out
Dopey Dicks

*Not really in any particular order, aside from Self-Made Maids.
If there's no other place around the place, I reckon this must be the place, I reckon.

Top 10 may be a bit hard, especially since I have not watched most of these shorts in over two years.  I really like the majority of those shorts, but SELF-MADE MAIDS?  I hope you contribute when we get to that one, because there'll be some counter opinions for sure!

Yeah, call me an oddball, but that's always been my number one favorite Shemp short. It's just so different, and it always cracks me up. I'll be there for sure!

So far I can only think of Sing A Song Of Six Pants, Out West, Dunked In The Deep, and Listen, Judge.

I forgot about Blunder Boys - just about everyone else added that one to their list. Definitely a great one!
