Vaudeville started in the 1880's. It was very popular in the US and Canada from 1880 until the early 1930's.
While the Stooges were making the two reelers they only were shown in movie theatres and not on television. It was not until after they ended their contract with Columbia, after the 1958 season, that Screen Gems bundled their two reelers into packages and sold them to television stations. Station KTTV in Los Angeles is believed to have bought the first package and began airing them in 1959.
No, they are separate entities and genres of Art. That's not to say that there might not have been a ballet dancer on the act in a Vaudeville show; there probably was. Vaudeville was like a 'variety show': music, a comic, juggling, the dance troupe, etc...
