The Wiere Brothers
The 'Wiere Brothers' were a comedy team who appeared in 1930s and 1940s films, and as live performers from the 1920s to the late 1960s.
The names of the three brothers were:
* 'Harry Wiere', (June 23, 1906 - January 15, 1992)
* 'Herbert Wiere', (February 27, 1908 - August 5, 1999)
* 'Sylvester Wiere', (September 17, 1909 - July 7, 1970)
The Wiere Brothers were vaudeville performers who occasionally appeared in films and television. Their films include Hands Across The Border in 1944 with Roy Rogers, Road to Rio in 1947 with Bob Hope and Bing Crosby, and Double Trouble in 1967 as three detectives on the hunt for Elvis Presley. In 1962, the Wiere Brothers had their own TV series called "Oh, Those Bells!" that aired on CBS. The show included a lot of slapstick but only 13 episodes were aired. After Sylvester's death in 1970, Harry and Herbert Wiere discontinued their act. Harry Wiere did make one appearance on the TV series Bionic Woman in 1976 as the Tipsy Man.
