Don't Hug Me I'm Scared

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.

Don't hug me I'm scared is quite simply a very entertaining comedy horror while also parodying the style of children's television shows.

This show is scary. More so than the original YouTube shorts. Not only does it body horror shock you to the core but it's psychological horror is also surprisingly effective.

This show is also absolutely hilarious. It's fantastic sence of deadpan humour really juxtaposed the sheer horror of the situation at hand and also never interrupts the horror when it goes full on.

The show tricks you with long stretches of unsettling comedy only to be suddenly hit with sudden and extreme violence.

You will never predict it's next move story wise, that is for certain.

Absolutely watch it, there is nothing quite like it.

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!

First off I just want to start by saying how much the wait was worth. It was worth it definitely, this show is one of the weirdest (in the good way) shows I have ever watched. It was like watching the muppets but much more dark and scary. It's so hard to describe why it's such a perfect show, it's more of a "watch and you will see" type good. I hope this show goes on as long as it needs too cause I could watch a 3 hour movie with just these 3 puppets and not be bored the whole time. If you like horror but not too much and the muppets. You will love this show to death. A must watch, and in my opinion a masterpiece. Very short review cause I just wanted to say how good the show is while also supporting it the most I can.

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.
