After losing his second brother, Moe seriously considered retiring from the act. However, a few years still remained on their contract with Columbia. The group decided to enlist comedy veteran Joe Besser as the third Stooge, and he appeared with the team until their contract expired in late 1958.
The Stooges enjoyed a resurgence of popularity by the 1958-television release of a number of early Three Stooges shorts. With Curly-Joe DeRita now in place as the third Stooge, they made several full-length films in the 1960’s. They remained active with both television and personal appearances until the deaths of Moe and Larry in the mid-1970’s. Curly-Joe, the last surviving Stooge, died in 1993.
