Watching DON'T HUG ME I'M SCARED for the FIRST TIME has absolutely changed me as a person - help me

OPEN ME :D

[MathewMcKenna]

lmao thank u for coming along sorry to scar you & i hope u enjoy 🙃

[JuneLotte]

What's super interesting to me is the creators of this show did a special episode on The Amazing World Of Gumball! There's an episode of TAWOG where Darwin finds his old toy puppets and ends becoming obsessed with them. I recommend watching it it's a really fun episode.

[ffeah]

'cannibalistic implications are not my favourite thing in the world'

Well.. youre gonna hate the healthy eating video, arent you? Hahaha

[Glitchyybean]

1:37 "Why are you laughing Andrew? Why is Andrew laughing!!?"

Andrew knew and just couldn't wait for the reaction, it's obvious 🤣🤣

[ebbamattsson]

Mat: its the same day again, June 19
Me, a theorist: *visible excitement*

[GooMoo-Yippee]

Gosh I'm so hyped for the new series in channel 4.

Loved this series and now I can't wait to see what their cursed brains have come up with

[Scchrn]

oh my god I didn’t know how much I needed this (this is going to be one of my favorite reactions from you definitely)

[sinister]

Mathew: "its music, how bad can it be"
Oh Mathew... *you have no idea*

[sillycar]

I watched the first video of this series when I was 6, I actually stopped watching after it got all weird (cuz I was terrified) and never heard the "Now lets all agree... to never be creative again." until I decided to go back and watch the whole series

[karmanwilmot]

🤣 Don't Hug Me I'm Scared was a big part of my teens days. I don't get disturbed as easily as others so I found them entertaining and intriguing 😅. There is a whole film theory series about DHMIS(Don't Hug Me I'm Scared). It's actually really interesting.

[jarbies]

i really like the subtle message every episode has about companies, producers, and organizations coming in and forcing kids programming to push their agenda

[avery_is_gone]

Matthew needs to watch more of DHMIS, the videos gain more lore and get more unsettling, before the show returns

[sillyguykyle]

KEEP GOING it gets even better. I watched this series when I was like 9 or 10, probably what got me into the unnerving type of horror. Someone else in the comments said this but after you're done with the series you should watch Matpats theories on it, it explains a lot. June 19th isn't just a random date choice, there's a bit more to it.

For sone reason I remember seeing Creativity on Cartoon Network as a child and I know that couldn't be possible but that's how I remembered it. It made me get into DHMIS when I was like 11/12 and me and my sisters loved it. That and Salad Fingers. Funnily enough, I find those creepier as an adult than I did as a kid

[Sunxflare]

While this is creepy, if you watch all of the videos, you’ll understand the story a bit more. It’s the story of children’s programming, subliminal messages, and corporate corruptions of small projects. It’s a great and terrifying story.

13:41 after 2 years, this face from Mathew is still priceless

[thedisneybroentertainment]

“I’m sure you’ll be fine, but eventually everyone runs out of time.”
Genuinely made me think for a minute-

[owlesent]

don’t hug me I’m scared honestly traumatized me as a kid but seeing Matthew react to it and laugh at parts made it a lot better for me

[ProdigalDaughterAlice]

I want you to know that large parts of tumblr used to draw attractive humanoid versions of Notebook and Clock and shipped them with each other. The internet is quite a place.

(For real though I love these videos and watching you lose your shit over them is delightful please do do the rest. I still like the first one best as a stand-alone with its criticism of poorly designed education and the way that ‘creative thinking’ is often encouraged only when it fits in certain predetermined channels, but they all build on each other to a great finale. Love it.)

As one of the people who watched it as kids, yes I am messed up.
I feel called out. Remember to take a break if you need one and relax with something positive. I loved the reaction regardless ❤️
