This was part of a 3-DVD box-set, and it also came with the Laurel and Hardy shorts Mud & Sand, Just Ramblin' Along, Oranges and Lemons, The Tree in a Test Tube, as well as two other Three Stooges ones, Brideless Groom and Sing a Song of Six Pants, and, on the two other discs, the features Atoll K(or Utopia) and Flying Deuces. Well, thankfully this is the last of the ones with this trio. I forced myself to watch them because, well, people love them, there must be *some* reason, and I already had these three. Other than the audiences' bitterness, I can't see what the explanation could be. I by far prefer the lighter and at times clever slapstick of L&H(guess which of the groups were the reason I bought these; go on) to this angry, violent style. Well, this one goes back and forth between being nasty and silly, but it never manages to actually be funny. OK, At least one or two hits in this don't seem to hurt. Yes, I get it; it's politically incorrect. That, on its own, doesn't make me laugh. If there isn't something entertaining to it... yeah. This one is even racist. I agree with Yes, Dear; that show has one episode where a kid becomes brutal with someone else on account of these things. While it may be a joke there, I think it should be taken seriously. What are we teaching children? I recommend this to fans of them. 5/10
