Just like in a Spongebob cartoon, you learn in "Happily Buried" that square is the shape of evil! What do I mean? Well, in this short from MGM they announce that waffle iron sales are way down...and soon, to help remedy the problem, the owners of the Four Square and Magic Circle waffle companies are going to marry and merge their companies. But when he insists their waffles be square, she realizes he's evil and calls off the marriage! What's next in this weird tale of love? And, how can an odd Hindu mystic (Benny Rubin) help out the angry lovers?
Like any MGM production, this short is well made and features some of MGM's lesser-known contract players. The biggest negative is the leading lady's singing...which I found a bit painful. However, on balance it's pleasant and a decent time-passer.
