Don't Hug Me I'm Scared (Web Series) (feat. Acey Nickel)


Listen Later

Adam and guest-host Acey Nickel retreat to the dark corners of internet lore to discuss Don't Hug Me I'm Scared, a six episode virtual mini-series, which has gone on to spawn a cult following, a full-length Channel 4 series and a copious amounts of Reddit content. In this series, three odd characters (known only as Red Guy, Green Guy and Yellow Guy) live inside of what appears to be a children's TV series, where every week, they are taught lessons about subjects like Creativity, Love and Food. But each lesson comes with a dark, warped and twisted look at the world. Adam and Acey discuss the show's legacy, its commentary on children's media and consumer culture, its parallels to the neurodivergent experience in education. 


CW for torture, cannibalism, gore, loud noises and extreme discomfort.


Acey's Rating: 4.5/5

Adam's Rating: 5/5
