Excellent!, 16 May 2000

A great short. I like how there is magic mayhem, and it looks like they've turned the stooges into women. Another great scene has the stooges wrapping shirts around a pipe to stop gas from escaping. I think people should see this show. It's pretty good (not the best show on earth, mind you).
