The kids mistake Miss Crabtree's brother for a potential boyfriend, and plot to discourage him The original theatrical film shorts released from 1922 - 1944 were titled "Hal Roach's Rascals"; another name Roach tried during the silent years from 1922 - 1928 was "The Terrible Ten"; But since the first short was titled "Our Gang", the public began to refer to them as "'Our Gang' Comedies"; so Roach finally adopted that name for this series of shorts; and by the sound era (circa 1928) "Our Gang" was the official name; The first Little Rascals "talkie" was "Schools Out" (1928); Quite a few child actors were used for years until they began to get too old, at which time they were unceremoniously replaced by a fresh face; Several TV actors got their start working in this series including Jackie Cooper (1929-1931), Robert Blake known as "Mickie" (1939-1944) and West-coast local TV children's show host Johnny Downs (1925 - 1927)
