Three Stooges character actors

I’ve watched the Three Stooges shorts for over twenty years, but I’ve still never seen a credit for the over-weight middle-aged guy in a moustache who always play a cop or some other foil. You know who I’m talking about.

Who is he, dammit?

Vernon Dent?

I second.

Another foil during the earlier years was Bud Jamison, a tall, stoutish, chap who had a tragically short life.
