That said, I watched it in about five to ten minutes bites a night until I was done because that’s all I could take. In many ways, it’s barely interesting.Īnd yet, I found myself kind of riveted, and I thoroughly enjoyed it. So, yeah, I’ll offer up some sort of review.īut I’ll warn everybody now, before I spend a lot of time discussing Kook’s Tour, it is not easy to watch.
After all, this final “film” was actually a failed approximately one-hour TV pilot, and if it’s a footnote in TV history, it’s a pretty significant one. The footage was shot on cheap film stock, and so for those who watch it today, the color looks a little, let's say, tired.Ī review of Kook’s Tour somehow probably belongs on The TV Professor.
The photo is in black white, but Kook's Tour was in glorious color. Editor's note: 'Streaming Time Capsule,' assuming the name sticks, is going to be a semi-regular feature on The TV Professor, looking at some of the unusual and maybe worthwhile, and maybe not worthwhile, TV show oddities that you can find online.ĭuring the worst of the pandemic, I found myself watching some really strange programming on streaming services late at night, and one of the stranger ones was Kook’s Tour, the final 'film' of the Three Stooges, which was shot in 19.
