Happy Tree Friends

Happy tree friends slams into action...with many DVD's out, tons of merchandise and a successful show altogether getting all this from animal cruelty is genius as well as disturbing. So I have given a 9 as It is a very addictive show and you should watch it even if you like animals...I have 3 cats which I like and I still find it funny...by the way it is animated, I'm not that sick. Anyway in conclusion you should definitely get the DVD's, get the merchandise, get the £1 keyrings off ebay because this is about to become your life and the animation is like you've never seen animation before. Definitely the one to watch if you don't feel queasy at a bit of blood.

Happy Tree Friends is a show that started as a internet shorts that became very popular and gained it's own TV series that now aires on G4. Every episode features cute innocent cuddly animals getting slaughtered in the most gruesome ways possible. The internet shorts were about 3 minutes long so the writers didn't have much time to tell a story so they usually went to the violence really fast but in the TV seven minute episodes the writers are able to tell a nice story in which a character faces a normal problem and tries to solve it and always while trying to solve that problem the character would cause the other's character's deaths and it's own. Some characters like Cuddles, Toothy and Sniffles die in almost every episode they featured in so you can predict that they are going to die while other characters like Flippy and Splendid rarely die so the writers sometimes try to surprise fans when they kill these characters. The animation is done in flash and it takes about 6 months to do and it's really good and impressive for a non-mainstream cartoon. Even though the show makes me sick sometimes I still find it really funny and addictive and I think anyone with a twisted sense of humor will enjoy it. I the other hand anyone with an innocent sense of humor and weak stomach should stay away.

I give this funny show a 9.5

This show is so funny and gory. Don't let the kids watch it :) the negative reviews come from mothers finding their kids watching this show. Those mothers should really make their kids watch nick jr and pbs kids and pay attention to what they are watching. I wouldn't consider this a review, but a lesson, to mothers not paying attention to what their kids are watching. Over and out ;)

I used to watch this when I was younger. Probably not a good idea. I had a wallpaper of Cuddles about to a stick a fork into a power outlet, although my favourite character was Flippy for some reason. When I was younger, I hated seeing blood and guts (and still do), but the cartoonish nature of the violence was bizarre enough to be entertaining. The scenarios are so unpredictable and ridiculous that I couldn't be disturbed. Strangely, I can't stomach this show now as an adult. I suppose I'm just too anxious now and the anticipation is too much for me to bear. Recommended for morbid children. Not recommended for anxious adults.

It's like "Shirt Tales" and "The Get-Along Gang" had a knife fight that turned into a blood orgy. It's great!

Think what The Simpson's Itchy & Scratchy could do without a censor using pastel colored cuddlies in the tradition of Hello Kitty. It's like a 2-D animation version of "Meet the Feebles" without any of that pesky dialog.

Heads roll, eyes gouge, blood for ketchup, combat flashbacks, and each episode resets so they don't get rid of any of the cast. Four stars.

Check it out.
