wacky concept

At Clipton Barber College, Professor Kapouris (Billy Gilbert) is developing a new depilatory cream. He's also the coach of the school shaving team as they take on rival school Beardsley. The shaving competition takes place in the fully packed football stadium like a football game.

The wacky competition concept is a little fun. It's cute for about two minutes. Sure, this short is not even twenty minutes. Still, two good minutes are not enough when the rest is a bore. The comedy is not funny. I'm not interested in the test drama. The romance isn't anything. Somebody had a weird idea after watching football.
