Emil Sitka ~

The Fourth Stooge

        "The most important actor in most Stooges films, besides the Stooges themselves, was the sharp-nosed, wide-eyed Emil Sitka... His presence was such a mainstay of the operation that many thought of him as an undeclared 'fourth Stooge.'"

                                       -Moe Feinberg, Larry Fine's brother

                                         Larry The Stooge In the Middle

This is the top half of the cover page of Emil Sitka's script for the live-action sequences of the TV series THE NEW 3 STOOGES (1965). It reveals the actual working titles for these short, two-part comedy vignettes, which were used to introduce the animation as well as provide a short epilogue. Often called "live action wrap-arounds," they were really independent little productions, and out of forty-one episodes Emil had a role (or two) in twenty-three episodes. You can see some of his notes regarding his working dates on the page above.
