I just recently got a radio interview on CD from late 1974 of Moe Howard (of the 3 Stooges), about 6 months before he died of cancer. He states his favorite shows....they were All In The Family, Sanford And Son, and "what's that new show with that puerto-rican kid? The one with Jack Albertson"? The interviewee said "Yeah, that's Freddie Prinze- Chico And The Man." Moe said "yeah, I like that show. Jack Albertson, he's one of the best in the business." I thaught that was a nice compliment..especially being a Chico and Stooges fan.......he said he didn't like Mary Tyler Moore.....also to all you out there.......sorry I haven't posted in so long.......I have more to post later......I still remember and love this show...........

That's interesting. I don't care for the Three Stooges myself, but my hubby and daughter are huge fans. I know Freddie was a big fan of Groucho Marx, I wonder if he liked the Three Stooges. I bet he probably did. And I bet Moe Howard might have known or worked with Jack Albertson in vaudeville. Wouldn't surprise me.

Wow Scott that was interesting... I didn't know that! My husband also is a huge Three Stooges fan and I have watched and thought what is so funny?!?! I believe it is a dude thing that all men enjoy the show. Thanks for the cool information though!
