History Film / DizzyDoctors

''Dizzy Doctors'' is the 21st of the 97 shorts made by the Larry/Moe/Curly incarnation of Film/TheThreeStooges. Here, the Stooges are lazy and unemployed husbands whose wives threaten to throw them out of their home if they don't find work. After several false starts, they land a job selling bottles of Brighto -- and naturally, HilarityEnsues while they try to hawk the stuff.

** Once inside the hospital, a call board is heard paging "Dr. Howard! Dr. Fine! Dr. Howard!" This is a reference to a similar scene in the earlier Stooges short ''[[Recap/TheThreeStoogesMenInBlack Men in Black]]''.

* ContinuityNod: The Stooges' wives in this film are named Corabell, Dorabell, and Florabell. A later short, ''[[Recap/TheThreeStoogesTheSitterDowners The Sitter Downers]]'', shows the Stooges marrying the three girls and subsequently botching up a prefab house they're trying to build. In a sense, that later short can be seen as a {{Backstory}} to ''Dizzy Doctors''.

** Moe's line "Hello, everybody. We just brought the moon over the mountain" is a reference to the Kate Smith hit song "When the Moon Comes over the Mountain."

* HarmfulHealing: Strongly implied about Brighto, the product the Stooges are trying to sell. Despite ''not knowing what it's used for'', the trio runs out to try and interest strangers in their product. They do so by passing it off as a spot remover for clothing (it eats the fabric off a policeman's coat) and automobile cleaner (it strips the paint off). When the Stooges head back to their boss complaining that the product doesn't work well, he indignantly states that it's ''medicine''! One wonders what might have happened to anyone unfortunate enough to take the stuff.

* ShoutOut: Once inside the hospital, a call board is heard paging "Dr. Howard! Dr. Fine! Dr. Howard!" This is a reference to a similar scene in the earlier Stooges short ''[[Recap/TheThreeStoogesMenInBlack Men in Black]]''

* ChaseScene: In the Los Arms Hospital, they re-encounter Harry Arms, the man whose car they ruined; he's the director of the hospital where they're trying to sell bottles of Brighto. The boys frantically run through the hospital trying to escape him and the hospital personnel.

''Dizzy Doctors'' is the 21st short in the 97 shorts of the original trio's run. In this, the Stooges are lazy husbands that are unemployed, so their wives are threatening to throw them out of their home if they don't. The job they get is selling bottles of Brighto, and naturally, HilarityEnsues during the sale.

* ChaseScene: In the Los Arms Hospital, they encounter Harry Arms, the man who own a car they ruined, again; whose the boss of the hospital they're in. And the boys make a run for it around the hospital (via ScoobyDoobyDoors).
* IAteWhat: During breakfast, Curly eats a bar of soap, which he mistakes as cheese. Moe takes the bars and points it out to him. His response...

* ScoobyDoobyDoors: During the ChaseScene.
