Happy Tree Friends
Cute, cuddly and horribly wrong
Created by Kenn Navarro, Rhode Montijo, Aubrey Ankrum
On YouTube Premium, Mondo Media
A deliberately grotesque comedy that weaponizes the contrast between cute aesthetics and graphic gore, built on shock value and the repetition of accidental carnage.
This action and adventure comedy is drawn in simple appearance and combines cute forest animals with extreme graphic violence. Each episode revolves around the characters enduring accidental events of bloodshed, pain, dismemberment and/or death.
