1. Why is Curly's sexual orientation mentioned?
What an odd thing to include. It's not included for Shemp though. :shrug:

2. The Web Site labels itself a "beta" version...
...and they do include that on many of the profiles, so I'm guessing it was just an omission.

3. Curly was funnier but
I think many of the Shemp episodes had better writing.

Take that terrorists!
