Don't Hug Me I'm Scared

I remember watching and loving the original YouTube episodes years ago, and boy were they something else. These long-form episodes continue the brilliance.

"Messed up seaseme street" is a common trope, but Don't Hug Me I'm Scared is the peak. The songs are catchy, the characters lovable, and the storytelling just the right balance of charming and terrifying.

This definitely has a different vibe from the original YouTube shorts, but not for the worse. I immediately felt like re-watching all six episodes again after finishing, and I am sure I'll re-watch them again shortly after that. Fantastic job!

Honestly this is the best ad probably the only good animated horror we've gotten recently next to mad god, and that one still got a little rusty, and besides for that movie we barely got a glimpse at good horror animation maybe even since 2012, i can't even start to believe what this Youtube internet series has become, it is incredible and i barely can see anything wrong with it at all

i'm so glad this show exists and i'm also glad that the gore isn't terrible looking and overused in one whole scene, and when they try to make it seem like a "sesame street clone" and they don't fail at doing so, amazing show, really.

I first saw Don't Hug Me I'm Scared back when it was originally released an eternity ago. Checked occasionally to see if they plan on releasing new episodes and was happy to see a new season uploaded on YouTube. The show gets 10/10 for originality and the ability to induce existential fear into viewers. They seem to have cracked a formula that combines story, visuals dialog and editing that makes people feel extremely uncomfortable. Based on the low number of ratings and reviews on Imdb (15 at the times of writing), this show is by definition a hidden gem and I hope it gets recognised soon so that we can keep seeing more of it.

My son introduced me to the YouTube series and then the songs were permanently in my head. A seemingly harmless show which devolves into dark and twisted chaos before the clouds of naivety block the receptors again and we and the characters go back to our blind conformity.

The first episode looks to be based the following day if the calendar is to be trusted which it could just as likely not be. One minute your going with the flow of lights and colours and tunes and the next your eyes and bleeding and you realise you've been breathing the toxic fumes of betrayal. In other words it looks like fun and games but perl the Veneer away and see the rot within.

Well Done Joseph, Becky and co.

The genius British web-series created by Joseph Pelling and Becky Sloan has been green lit for a while. And after years of setbacks and delays, it's finally here.

The show is toned down and different from the original version. Much slower, and the episodes are mostly dark throughout rather than having a horrifying build-up. That said, it's different, but still a great show. The songs are still catchy, the puppet work is still impressive, and the humor is still.

Honestly, I am disappointed that we didn't get Wakey-Wakey, and that most of us will probably never see it. From what is on the internet. Wakey-Wakey seemed much more in the spirit of the original. However, this new take on DHMIS is still great, and just another reason why everyone should watch the original show.
