    Not that good.

  2. Andrew says:

    They say that despite the fact that he always played the straight man, Zeppo was the funniest of the brothers.

    Just something I read the other day.

    • Ruby says:

      I read in one of Groucho’s autobiographies (because he had about six billion) that he actually resented Zeppo for being the most talented. When they did ‘Animal Crackers’ on Broadway, he understudied for the three others.

      One night, Groucho was rushed to the hospital to have his appendix removed, and Zeppo took over his role. The next morning, Groucho saw reviews that said that Zeppo was funnier in the role than he himself was, and dragged himself back to the theatre as soon as he was even remotely able to so that Zeppo wouldn’t get more popular.

    • Joey says:

      Zeppo was funny? If only he was funny on camera.

  3. Sally says:

    Zeppo was very funny. Have you actually seen a Marx Brothers movie?

  4. molesticide says:

    come on chumps harpo was the funniest.

    and yes, zeppo was hilarious, but no, you cannot tell this from the movies.

  5. wimple says:

    I like that Karl got a bit of a nod there.

  6. Andy B says:

    Points for mentioning Gummo, even though basically no living person has seen him as part of the troupe.

  7. jamisings says:

    o/` Lidia oh Lidia say have you met Lidia? Lidia the tattooed lady! She’s got eyes that folks adore-so – and a torso even more-so! o/`

  8. catgirl says:

    This one is hilarious!

  9. joni mitchell says:

    actually, karl was a lot funnier than all of them.

  10. ClickClick says:

    Once again, Zeppo takes a fall for the team.

  11. Bloobeard says:

    Richard Marx’s hair deserves a column of its own.

  12. Ryan Thompson says:

    Zeppo always gets shafted. :|

  13. NemesisKismet says:

    It’s okay if no one knows he was funny… He’s sure as hell more handsome than the other brothers.

    But Chico and Harpo will always have my heart. XD

  14. Jen says:

    I didn’t pay that much attention at first, but after a minute, the Karl Marx thing made me giggle a little bit.

  15. siirenias says:

    “My favorite Marx brother was Karl.”
    – Some strange artist.

    Necro’d for the luls.
