Shorts Review: Goat & Guru ‘The Toothbrush’

Spoilers Below

Guru is an elderly, yet spry man just looking to do what he can to get by. His roommate Goat, is…well…a goat and he’s slowly wearing out his welcome. His latest is brushing his udders with Guru’s toothbrush right after he gets done banging out some chick. Pissed off at the situation, Guru heads to the market to get a new toothbrush and is easily sold by a hot tooth brush sales-lady that convinces Guru to try their awesome tool to clean teeth. Unfortunately when he tries to give it for a test run, Guru ends up ruining the toothbrush (and his teeth) which causes the store manager to come out and demand payment on the now ruined brush. Clearly, Guru has no cash, so Goat steps in to offer rides which eventually settles the debt…until next time.

The Bite on Mondo producers seem to like the buddy comedies, with Tuck and Ranger, World Doctors, and Chug & Yank all serving as examples. Fortunately, I think Goat & Guru is ahead of this pack having elevated the game in dialogue, direction, and overall crude but tasty humor. So far, Goat & Guru has been the only one to REALLY test some social limits which is an ingredient that calls both Family Guy and South Park as its masters. The plot stays grounded all of the way through, and similar to BoJack Horseman, the producers for this series are throwing out the book when it comes to animal-interaction with people, and the result is a rather well made effort that should get fans of Bite on Mondo excited.
