That's a toughie ...

I know this has to be wrong, but ... the Skipper and Gilligan (Alan Hale Jr. and Bob Denver)?
 

Are they a couple of Cowboys? I only am guessing that because, coincidently, they look exactly like the two who were just pictured in meanderer's video called "Silver Screen Cowboys" in the "Cowboy Heros" thread post #69 (Days Gone By forum). They show up at the 2 minute mark and 2:15

Just so you know someone is thinking about this :), the guy on the left looks a little like Jerry Lester (Broadway Open House, Dagmar), but I don't really think that's right because it would mean he got younger looking as he aged. Still thinking.... :confused: Any hints?

Yes.

I also know that Shemp was a terrible replacement for Curly - no one like Curly!

Curly replaced Shemp...
.By the 1920s Moe had teamed up with boyhood-friend-turned-vaudeville star Ted Healy in a "roughhouse" act. One day Moe spotted his brother Shemp in the audience, and yelled at him from the stage. Quick-witted Shemp yelled right back, and walked onto the stage. From then on he was part of the act, usually known as "Ted Healy and His Stooges". On stage, Healy would sing and tell jokes while his three noisy stooges would get in his way. He would retaliate with physical and verbal abuse. His original stooges were the Howard brothers and Larry Fine. Shemp played a bumbling fireman in the Stooges' first film, Soup to Nuts, the only film in which he plays one of Healy's gang. Healy was always the main attraction of the act, and his stooges were in constant disagreement with him over billing, money and management. Tired of what he considered Healy's domineering handling of the Stooges' career, Shemp left Healy's act in 1932 to pursue a solo film career and was immediately replaced by his and Moe's younger brother, Jerry (Curly).[SUP][3][/SUP]
