An incredible mix of disturbing and absurd with a children's show setting. The songs have been stuck in my head for days, and while watching I both laughed and shriveled up into a shivering ball. This is a great series of short films for thos who love absurdity.

This looks like a weird ripoff from the Muppets. It is just hard to explain. When one of the characters was putting gold glitter on a heart I just freaked out and wondered if this meant anything. I'm ready to watch the next one! It is weird and but it isn't that bad!

This is the first episode in a six episode series of short films don't hug me im scared. This was a really strong opening for a YouTube series this kind of story telling and design can be seen on television, yeah it's that good but do not show that to your kids. This show is not for kids because it's a horror spoof on children's TV programs. And I have to say that it's worth your time.

"Don't Hug Me I'm Scared" is a British award-winning 3-minute cartoon by Joseph Pelling and Becky Sloan. It is usually never a good sign if the filmmakers appears as voice actors themselves, but I guess here they did a fine job. Early on, I wasn't yet sure if this film is a parody or really takes itself seriously, but the longer it goes the more obvious it becomes that it is all just a spoof. So it's nothing your children (or you) really need to see. There are a couple sequels here, but this first one here lacked the creativity to really make me interested in these. The song was kinda catchy though and probably the highlight from the whole thing. The rest of the watch was definitely pretty awkward, but neither funny nor entertaining I have to say. Not recommended.
