This is an unbelievably pathetic attempt to spin a mildly interesting premise into some sort of dumbed-down version of "Who Wants to be a Millionaire". The paralyzing stupidity of the contestants is hard to watch, as is the self-righteous smugness of the kids. Foxworthy basically just stands up there making fun of the adults for taking so long to answer the questions, when we all know that he's the most clueless one in the room. The questions simply aren't believable (what random group of five fifth graders is HONESTLY going to know who the first impeached president was?). Whereas Jeopardy or WWTBAM are fun to play along with, this show moves SO SLOWLY that it's impossible to get any sort of feel for the flow of the game. Avoid this show at all costs...the less we watch, the sooner it will be off the air.

P.S. - What's with the random camera shots of the one little girl laughing hysterically?

This was a truly pitiful performance by one of the greatest comic trios in cinematic history. As a huge stooge fan, it was a heartwrenching film to watch. I kept waiting for SOME interpretation of the signature slap-stick comedy that makes the stooges so great, but I was sorely disappointed. At no point in the movie did the stooges display ANY ounce of humor, but instead made feeble attempts at more serious stage roles. The script is pathetic, and as a result, the stooges had no chance at making an even remotely entertaining film. DO NOT waste your time by seeing this movie, but PLEASE....do not make the mistake of basing any opinions of the stooges solely on this film. The stooges are incomparable geniuses, and should be remembered for their outstanding work - their short films - and not for utter embarrassments such as Snow White and the Three Stooges.

Marblehead Manor was truly an outstanding comedy series, and I only wish that more episodes were made. Paxton Whitehead easily steals the spotlight in his role of Albert the Butler, a witty yet manic servant to the Stonehills (Bob Fraser and Linda Thorson). Whitehead & Fraser's onstage chemistry is absolutely genius, while a young Michael Richards adds a hilarious facet to the show as the nieve yet lovable gardener - a much more settling role than his signature character on Seinfeld. This series is a "must-see" for anyone who can get their hands on it.
