Rating: 5 stars
Summary: OMG! They killed Cuddles! And Giggles! And Petunia!
Review: This sick, twisted stuff is right up my alley! I was somewhat infamous at my high school for drawing stick men having similar
misadventures, so a few of my old classmates might think I was part of the genius behind the Happy Tree Friends. I was not, but it does my heart good to see someone cashing in on this insanity! Handy (who has no hands) really cracks me up because you'll just miss seeing him doing impossible things like building a treehouse or bowling, but now that you are watching him, all of a sudden he's helpless to save himself or his friends from their horrible fate!

Watching this DVD is kinda like watching a medley of Kenny's deaths on South Park. The ones with Flippy the crazed Vietnam vet even have a slasher movie type feel to them.

Yes, indeed , do NOT buy this DVD for young kids. It could be very traumatic. Let them learn on their own what a sick world it is before adding to the distress.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Weak.
Review: This was disappointing on so many levels.

The animals dont even talk or anything, the intro theme song is about as long as the episode, they just bounce around and then get killed, pretty boring stuff. I dont understand why people get so excited over this.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Looney Tunes they ain't.
Review: Unlike many of you lucky people reading this review, I do not own a computer. I must purchase my cds, dvds and etc. over the internet on a Webtv (MSN, ask around). It does not download movies, music and it does not work half the time. What Webtv is also incapable of doing is downloading episodes of the Happy Tree Friends from their website. So when I found out that they were putting episodes on a dvd I went out and got my copy and let me tell you, I was not disappointed. I found out about these zany little guys from a family member and I was hooked from the start. The Happy Tree Friends consist of the cutest, cuddliest lil animals you've ever seen. You then get so sick from their cuteness that you just wish someone would come up and gut them like a fish with a long, sharp hunting knife and then play with their lower intestine, 5 seconds later that's exactly what happens to them. These lil guys get stabbed, crushed, cut, electricuted, drowned, sufficated, Bar-B-Qed, decapitated, and thrown into a jet engine (I left some stuff out, you know, for the children) all in the name of funny. And it is, from the time you press play till the end, if your not giving out at least one chuckle, then you sir (or ma'am) do not have a sense of humor. The dvd includes 14 episodes from the website (about a min. and a half a piece), the very first episode ever made (call it the test run), and a "never before seen episode" that you can only get here. It has 4 "smoochies", that's when they get one of the Happy Tree Friend members, puts him or her in a box on your tv screen and then you decide the lil guys fate. From choking on a carrot to seeing them sneeze their brains out (literally) to suffering from carbon monoxide poisoning to seeing them eat nine eggs then watching as they hatch in their belly and busting out like that thing in the first Alien movie, Mwa-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha. You get a commentary for most of the episodes from the creators them selves, and as you watch and listen to the commentaries you get to see the "Storyboard to episode comparisons". They have bios on 17 of the Happy Tree Freinds and you can read them all here. They have a "Pop Corn Video" were they take an episode and treat it like VH1's Pop-Up video. And last but not least, you get to see how some scribbles on a napkin made by some drunk frat guys late one Tuesday night became what is now known as one of the weirdest, wildest, funniest shows on the internet today. HAPPY TREE FRIENDS, FUN FOR THE WHOLE FAMILY (I'm serious, I showed this dvd to my 5 and 10 year old cousins and either their very sick or have a great sense of humor.)
