It is the perfect show for anyone who has a weird demented sense of humor. I bought the Overkill DVD which features 50+ episodes of brutal morbid death of cute innocent animals. Then, out of nowhere comes some disastrous thing that Kills all of them in brutal ways. It features cute cuddly animals who start out with a happy thing like, playing on a merry go round, going to the zoo, sitting around a campfire. This show, however, is nowhere near kid friendly. I have seen all of the episodes or at least all of the ones which I am aware of their existence. Well, Happy Tree Friends is possibly the best cartoon on the internet. According to the website, the idea for Happy Tree Friends was conceived by Rhode Montijo when he drew a yellow rabbit (slightly resembling Cuddles) on a piece of paper and wrote "Resistance Is Futile" underneath it. Though it is obvious what each character's reaction is, their words can barely be understood. The show is nearly free of dialogue when the characters do speak, their words are severely garbled. While the violence of these deaths is compared to that of The Itchy & Scratchy Show (a short cartoon featured on The Simpsons), the deaths in Happy Tree Friends are even more graphic and more drawn out. Every episode features at least one character's violent and bloody death, except the two episodes: "Out on a Limb", "Nuttin' but the Tooth","Asbestos i can do" and possibly "House Warming" (which still featured blood and gore and characters who would have possibly died of blood loss or shock). " Notwithstanding the cuteness of its characters, the show is extremely violent. As indicated on the official site, the show is "not recommended for small children. ![]() Warren Graff is also credited in creating the Happy Tree Friends. Happy Tree Friends is a flash cartoon series by Mondo Mini Shows, created by Kenn Navarro, Aubrey Ankrum and Rhode Montijo. I the other hand anyone with an innocent sense of humor and weak stomach should stay away. 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. 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. 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 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. Every episode features cute innocent cuddly animals getting slaughtered in the most gruesome ways possible. A.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.
