Don't Hug Me I'm Scared

Don't Hug Me I'm Scared is a British comedy horror web and television series. The series consists of a six-episode web series and a television series on Channel 4. Web Series Episode 1 (Creativity) [Various objects are shown; an international letter, a newspaper, a hat, a jar, and a few other things. The calendar says it's the 19th of June. Written on a post-it note is the phrase "get creative". The scene cuts to the three characters; Red Guy; Yellow Guy; and Duck Guy are all sitting at a kitchen table, looking bored. Suddenly a sketchbook flips open and begins to sing. The others look at it in surprise.] Sketchbook: What’s your favourite idea? Mine is being creative! [with a lightbulb above itself] Yellow Guy: How do you get the idea? Sketchbook: I just try to think creatively. [the individual syllables appear on-screen] Now take a look at this orange! (Ooh), Tell me please, what do you see? Duck Guy: It's just a boring, old orange. Sketchbook: Maybe to you, but not to me. I see a silly face! [an animated orange with a silly face appears], Walking along, smiling at me. Duck Guy: I don't see what you mean! Sketchbook: Because you’re not thinking creatively! [the word appears in whole on-screen; lifting up a page and showing some hair] Now take a look at my hair! (Cool) I use my hair to express myself! Red Guy: That sounds really boring. Sketchbook: I use my hair to express myself! [slightly more aggressive] Now, when you stare at the clouds in the sky, don't you find it exciting? [pointing outside a window at some clouds] Red Guy: No. [word appears on-screen] Sketchbook: Come on, take another look! [takes out a magnifying glass and holds it up to its eye] Yellow Guy: Oh, wait! [While the next part is sung, the clouds morph into the various shapes.] Yellow Guy and Duck Guy: [clouds are turning what they say] I can see a hat! I can see a cat! I can see a man with a baseball bat! I can see a dog! I can see a frog! I can see a ladder leaning on a log! Sketchbook: I think you're getting the hang of it now! Using your minds to have a good time! [pointing at a picture of a brain with the word "time" written underneath, the letter "i" having been replaced with a clock] Yellow Guy: I might paint a picture of a clown. [with a clown painting] Sketchbook: Whoa, there friend, you might need to slow down! [Suddenly the clown painting is covered up by falling black oil.] Here's another good tip— Yellow Guy and Duck Guy: Yeah? :Sketchbook: Of how to be a creative whizkid! Go and collect some leaves and sticks [reveals leaves and sticks under a page] And arrange them into your favourite color! [points to a colour wheel, green noticeably absent] Red Guy: Blue. :Duck Guy: Red! :Yellow Guy: Green! :Sketchbook: Green is not a creative color. [holds a big cross in front of the word green] :Yellow Guy: Oh. :Sketchbook: There's one more thing that you need to know Before you let your creativity flow Listen to your heart! [reveals a drawn human heart under a page] Listen to the rain! [reveals rain under a page] Listen to the voices in your brain! [points to a picture of the brain] Sketchbook: Come on guys, let’s get creative! [The last two words are on a fridge written in magnetic letters, but they turn into 3D models and fly out at the screen.] [The next few scenes are composed of the characters doing various "creative" things, such as Yellow Guy making a model out of sticks and googly eyes; Red Guy spreading glitter everywhere; and Duck placing the letter D down. The camera then goes back to the shot of the three main characters at the beginning of the episode, but it also turns into a 3D model and spins around. We can see the film crew behind all of this. As we return to the original angle, Yellow Guy and Duck have grown larger, and the 3D model turns back into real life. The creative scenes suddenly become very dark, and the music slowly becomes disturbing. Red Guy has a heart that he spreads glitter on; Yellow Guy covers his model in random objects; the three start dancing maniacally while the words "get creative" are hung up like balloons; the clear sky turns to a thunderstorm in an instant; Duck takes a piece of cake where the inside is made of blood and organs; it turns out that Duck was writing "DEATH"; some flesh disappears into a mousehole; Yellow Guy shakes uncontrollably; and skulls appear around the word "DEATH" before Duck pushes the potatoes that made them away. Suddenly everything goes back to normal, however, all the characters are horrified about what just took place.] Sketchbook: Now let’s all agree to never be creative again. [Sketchbook closes] Episode 2 (Time) Tony the Taking Clock: There’s always time for a song! Tony the Taking Clock: Now you can see the importance of time, it helps us make pizzer and keeps things in line. Duck Guy: But when did it start? Yellow Guy: And when will it stop? Tony the Taking Clock: Time is important and I am a clock. Red Guy: If we run out of time, then where does it go? Yellow Guy: Is time even real? Does anyone know? Duck Guy: Maybe time’s just a construct of human perception, an illusion created by- Tony the Taking Clock: Meh, meh, meh, meh, meh, meh, meh, meh, MEH, MEH, MEH, MEH, MEH, MEH! Tony the Taking Clock: It's out of my hands, I'm only a clock. Don't worry, I'm sure you'll be fine. But eventually, everyone runs out of time! Episode 3 (Love) Duck Guy: (swats fly) Pesky bee! Yellow Guy:(sees butterfly) A little baby pigeon. Red Guy: Now we've eaten the chicken, I don't know what to do. Duck: Maybe we should look for our friend. Isn't that what friends do? And we have finished our chicken picnic… Episode 4 (Computers) Red Guy: Oh… I guess it’s my turn to choose a card. Let’s see… what’s the biggest thing in the world? Duck: Hmm… that’s a tricky one. Yellow Guy: A mountains? A sky? A windmill! Duck: No! Red Guy: Shut up! Colin: Don’t touch MMEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!! Yellow Guy: Wow look, nothing! Episode 5 (Health) Duck Guy: No! Enough! I don’t want to do this anymore! (Duck Guy knocks over the camera and runs away) Steak: That wasn't onion paste, you shouldn't eat from a stranger's plate.. The Healthy Band: Stranger's plate.

I am a file, and… You put documents in me… and, um… ah doo doo doo, oh file. Funny... silly file.. ah doo doo doo... You know, it did it like a song? Other Red Guy: That sounds really boring. Red Guy: I wonder what will happen. Television Series Jobs Briefcase: Almost forgot my briefcase! Yellow Guy: Look, he’s one of those guys who has one of himself.

We're supposed to be getting our jobs started today. How do we get out of here, or away from YOU immediately? [the employees continue working, ignoring Duck's request] How strange! They're pretending they don't respect me. Employee: I like my child, but not as much as I like… lasagna! Red Guy: You’re just jealous cause I’m actually good at it.

Warren: How could a confident, handsome worm- EAGLE have trouble keeping friends? Good question- Red Guy: Because of the way you look. Warren: The way I...

Duck: Reminds me of an infection I had up my... Red Guy: Or was it the voice? Colin: He looks like a tumour. Duck: And he stinks. Yellow Guy: I know, it's because you've got beady eyes like a rat.

You may feel like you're alone But no matter how much the wheels turn The journey always ends up back at home Electricity Duck: Okay, one across. The clue is opposite of down, two letters. Hm, that's a tricky one. Red Guy: Opposite of down... hm... try above. Duck: Above. A-B-OVE, no. Yellow Guy: Hey, I know. It's when you can't remember that over the top of you, there's bigger ones, that are bigger and bigger. And then over the top of it, there's a smaller one on all of it at the top of that. Electracey: I'll be leaving then. I'll just go back in my box then, shall I? But I'm going to take all the lightbulbs and the CDs and electric whisk with me. Is that cool?

Electracey: Go on, try it! Red Guy: Why? Electracey: Try it! Red Guy: Okay, fine. Electracey: Try it! Red Guy: All right! Uh, no. Yeah it doesn't work. (Phone Rings) Red Guy: Oh, no, actually it does. Hello? Electracey: Oh, that's because my real phone is inside! You see? Red Guy: Not really. Duck: That's a weird thing to do.
