Shemp's uncle dies leaving him a large amount of money...if he gets married in 48 hours. He tries to get married with predictable and unfunny results.I'm not a big fan of the Stooges. I don't find violent slapstick all that funny and this one is VERY violent. It's amusing at first and there is a fun bit with Christine McIntyre but at the end it turns really violent and the fun stops. Larry and Shemp both have pieces of hair torn out, Moe sits down on a bear trap and (worst of all) Shemp has a woman get his head in a press which she continuously turns with graphic crunching sounds. That's not funny at all...it's sick! Also the portrayal of women as doing anything for money is troubling. I originally saw this as a little kid on TV and had nightmares all night about it! Sick and unfunny.

If you like The Three Stooges you'll undoubtedly like this 17 minute short. There were certainly some amusing moments in it, but like all the Stooges' work, this revolves around their particular style of slapstick comedy, and I have to confess that somehow the Stooges just never really did it for me. Their slapstick always seemed angry rather than funny, and even though it was obviously fake, their antics always seemed more likely to cause hurt rather than to cause laughter. In this short, the slapstick revolves around the attempts to find Shemp (who is a Professor of Music in this) a wife, because he's just inherited half a million dollars on condition that he marry within 48 hours of the will being read. One of his students is interested, but once word of the inheritance gets out , there's suddenly a long line-up of potential brides, and a pretty good cat fight emerges between them. Fans of the Stooges will enjoy. For me, it has all the elements that drive me nuts about them. 4/10

This was my first taste of the long-running trio and, quite frankly, I was left wondering why they remain so popular if this was typical of their output. Then I watched Disorder in the Court, made eleven years earlier, and I understood. This was the Three Stooges long past their prime, rehashing old gags that were performed better by their original owners, and missing the zany touch of Curly, who had suffered a stroke earlier the same year. I really can't understand the high rating and praise for the film on this site, because there isn't much to laugh at here. Only the final scenes, which look like they've been dreamed up by some Eric Stanton devotee, come even close to raising a smile. Avoid this one unless you're an undemanding die-hard fan.

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 Brideless Groom! All appearing in this short are Dee Green, the beautiful Christine McIntyre, Doris Houck, Alyn Lockwood, Johnny Kascier, Nancy Saunders, and Emil Sitka. Green and McIntyre provide great performances here! There are so many funny parts here. This is a very hilarious short. There is another similar Three Stooges short like this one called Husbands Beware and I recommend both!
