Don't Hug Me I'm Scared

Three non-threatening puppets sit around a table while a singing notebook encourages them to be creative. This is the simple idea here and it is laid out to be a very convincing children's television show as the notebook sings about imagination and creativity in a very generic way. This song is catchy but also has some really great lines and moments – "green is not a creative color" being my favorite because it made me laugh and also reminds us that generally trying to "teach" creativity will just need to reinforce bounds rather than encourage freedom.

The notebook gets what it wants as the three characters start to explore whatever comes to their imaginations, leading to some disturbing images and situations which very quickly take the cheerful little short out of the world of kids TV and into the dark world that lies inside. It is very cleverly done because it is funny, spot on as a satire and really well made. I see that the film has 12 million views on YouTube and, although I had never heard of it, I am not surprised that it struck a chord.

I remember watching this British comedy horror web series for the first time in July 2013 and I was twenty-three years old in that year. I thought I never saw any web series like that before in my entire life. It's kinda very dark, bizarre and disturbing but it's also very funny and entertaining. I absolutely love the series. It appears to be a dark version of an American children's television programme Sesame Street.

It's definitely not for kids as it seems to be way too frightening for kids as we know.

Anyway Red Guy is my favourite character in the series and my favourite teachers in the series are Tony, Colin and Sketchbook as well.

First episode from a provocative serie, it is far to be a comfortable animation. It reminds "Sesame Street" and this is the first piece of its eccentricity. It is an eulogy of creativity but its tools are far for children. It propose the happiness as rule but, in same measure, a bizarre cake. Sure, it is an Youtube experiment. Nice. And bizarre.

Honestly this is less of a review and more of a head's up. There is a dont hug me I'm scared tv show coming out on channel 4, a British channel. I love the series and I am very excited for the show so that's your warning.

The characters are learning something but there is always something that goes wrong. It is very interesting and will give you chills. It is violent and disgusting.
