	@Broken If Three's Company is dated how are the Marx Brothers relevant? Anyway, were there other answers to the Three's Company question? Obviously Chrissy is the original, but what about Terri or Cindy?

	Uuummm....the Marx Brothers are not a famous trio. There were four that appeared in most Marx Brothers movies, Groucho, Harpo, Chico, and Zeppo. There was a 5th, Gummo, who appeared in several movies. But the Marx Brothers have long been considered a quartet, not a trio.

	@Broken I agree with "evilcheeba," in terms of the Three's Company reference being dated... and obscure? That show first aired the year I was born, yet I still knew those names (in addition to the other roommates). Not to mention, they re-run it like 5x/day on multiple channels!

	When I saw "Harry" I immediately thought about Tom and Dick. ...and if "Three's Company" is obscure and therefore shouldn't be on this quiz, then Sporcle is gonna become a lot less interesting as a lot of trivia on this site is more obscure and dated than one of the greatest sitcoms EVER!

	There were more Marx brothers movies without Zeppo than there were with him (5 or 6 vs. 7 or 8), and Gummo never appeared in any movies, so while it may be a little borderline to refer to them strictly as a trio, from a movie perspective it's far from invalid.

	I love when these quizzes throw in something a little bit older -- gives us old farts a chance at getting a good score even if we can't name every pop hit of 2009.....

	@Pogues- Zeppo appeared in only the first six Marx Brothers movies from 1929 to 1933 and appeared in none of their films between 1935 and 1957. Gummo never appeared in any of their films, having left the act during World War I more than a decade before their first film. Because of the length of time that the brothers continued to perform without Zeppo, the Marx Brothers are often referred to as a trio. Now pardon me while I go pay the rent to Mr. Roper and head on down to the Regal Beagle...

	Not to mention that Zeppo always played a "straight man"; Groucho, Harpo, and Chico were the three comedic Marx brothers.

	eric29cocoanuts:	Dec 10th, 2011 at 00:45 GMT		1 point
	The Marx Brothers starred in thirteen feature films starting with The Cocoanuts (1929) and ending with Love Happy (1949). Zeppo appeared in only their first five films; Gummo did not appear in any. So, trio: 8 films, quartet: 5 films, quintet: 0 films.

	Zeppo should be accepted, but if it won't be changed to accept it as a correct answer, perhaps it could be a bonus answer?

	gvigary:	Jan 26th, 2012 at 09:48 GMT		3 points
	Whatever the merits or otherwise of Zeppo, most people would recognise the category from Harpo and Chico, and the other brother who clearly MUST be included is Groucho. Stop whining ;-)
