    Good one!

    The Three Stooges has always been some of the many actors that I have loved. I love just about every one of the shorts that they have made. I love all six of the Stooges (Curly, Shemp, Moe, Larry, Joe, and Curly Joe)! All of the shorts are hilarious and also star many other great actors and actresses which a lot of them was in many of the shorts! In My opinion The Three Stooges is some of the greatest actors ever and is the all time funniest comedy team!

    One of My favorite Stooges shorts with Shemp is none other than Heavenly Daze! All appearing in this short are Vernon Dent, Sam McDaniel, Symona Boniface, Judy Malcolm, Marti Shelton, and Victor Travers. There are so many funny parts here. This is a very hilarious short. There is another similar Three Stooges short like this one called Bedlam in Paradise and I recommend both!

    go to hell

    Shemp is denied entry into heaven. He is given a chance to enter if he can reform his cousins, Moe and Larry. The two remaining Stooges are hopelessly crooked and clueless. I like the sleazy Shemp in heaven. I like Moe and Larry fighting over the inheritance. I like most of this although I would prefer the Stooges to end this by going to hell.

    My favorite Three Stooges short!!!

    HEAVENLY DAZE is my favorite Three Stooges short. I am only 12 years old, but I'm a big fan of the Stooges. In the short, Shemp learns he can't get into heaven until he reforms Moe and Larry. Shemp is my favorite stooge. HEAVENLY DAZE is a great short. You won't be disappointed.

    My rating: A

    Dear, Uncle Mortimer....

    Who's to say what goes on in the mind of a stooge like Shemp Howard. At the pearly gates of heaven, Uncle Mortimer informs Shemp that he can't gain entry until he goes back to earth to reform his mischievous cousins, Moe and Larry.

    Of course, the hook here is that Moe and Larry can't see Shemp, which leads to some hilarious setups of Shemp dishing out some abuse on Moe for a change (and Larry). Shemp also finds time to frighten the boys butler--a role I've always enjoyed being played by the great Sam McDaniel, who nearly steals every scene he is in (says which).

    But alas, this was all just a dream & Shemp takes a pie to the kisser to end this wonderful short....

    classic stooges....

    If "Heavenly Daze" isn't my favorite short, it's damn close to the top. The ever-underrated Shemp Howard shines in this film. I always bust a gut on the scenes in the stooges "new" digs when Shempie is scaring Moe & Larry's butler to death (played hysterically by Sam McDaniel who nearly steals every scene himself). A definite stooge classic I recommend to anyone with a funny-bone.

    10/10

    Storyline

    Did you know

    Edit
    • Trivia
      There was a false rumor for many years, centering around Larry Fine's injury involving a fountain pen stabbing him on the forehead and Moe Howard angrily chasing Jules White around the set, saying he promised Larry would not get hurt. Larry, in fact, did get hurt by the pen, but Moe chasing White around is not true.
    • Goofs
      The hat Shemp supposedly levitates--visibly attached to a string--does not move in sync with his gestures.
    • Quotes

      Moe: Hey, there's something funny going on around here... I got it, you know Shemp said he was coming back to Earth to haunt us.

      Larry: Ah let him come, I ain't afraid of that fat head.

      [Shemp hits Larry in the stomach and the head]

      Larry: Moe, why'd you hit me for?

      Moe: I didn't touch you.

      Larry: That's what I was afraid of. Shemp's here! It's him! His ghost just hit me!

    • Alternate versions
      The AMC Cable Channel shows a severely cut version of this short that lasts about 5 minutes. I. Fleecem, the Heavenly Switchboard Operator, and the Heavenly Train Announcer are not seen or heard.
