Don't Hug Me I'm Scared - Family (feat.
Ойын-сауық
Hello my fellow traumatized children, welcome back to another round of analyzing the Muppet Show if it was nightmare fuel. If you’re watching this before you’ve seen the actual show, don’t. This episode is all about the importance of family, and how through the power of friendship we can overcome all things. My favorite part of this episode was when Roy went, “It’s Roy time” then Royed all over the place.
Don't Hug Me I'm Scared returned in beautifully horrific fashion. I'm just a random guy rambling about it. Thanks for watching, I hope even if you don't agree with a word I say that you're still mildly entertained. Let's march together into the willing embrace of impending eternity by discussing an adult puppet show:)
Huge thanks to @ComicKirk for gifting his voice to this production. See if you can find all his cameos.

I love the consistent writing that our Red Guy is extremely eccentric and weird among his own kind, despite how low-key he is compared to most of the cast.

The outside world treats Red the same way Red treats Duck and Yellow
I'm unsure if this was mentioned, but the reason why roy shows up is because Yellow guy dialed him up. When the family is screaming at him to make the call, yellow guy dials numbers, screams for help, then dials again and then asks for the food. Just wanted to throw that out there lol

Roy, I believe represents Yellow guys savagery. The true essence of primal. Everyone human being are animals, and you be delusional to think were not. We're just hiding it under our mask to fit into society. That's why we only see Roy once in awhile. When Yellow guy was threatened and new he was going to die. He had to call his primal to preserve himself. In that moment you have no idea what you did because it's not you.
I feel like Roy was angry about the family "stealing" his son (he is abusive father not a absent/neglectful one) and throwing him into the garbage.

It seems to be a common misconception that people think he just up and left when he's ALWAYS around
I feel like Roy saving Yellow was sort of like a "only I can treat my son terribly" because Roy is a bad father, but as other comments have pointed out yellow guy does dial two numbers.
I think the lack of bunk beds really drives in that theme that quite a few episodes share that the teachers are hypocrites. The notebook is fine using the color green until it is Yellows favorite color The butterfly and the cult are fine loving things other than their "special one," but once Yellow tries, he is doing love wrong The Twin talk about bunk beds like it is the most important thing in a family, yet they don't own one Warren says the main three need to be better friends yet is a horrible friend himself (I wouldn't be surprised if he caused his friends to leave him) The boundary teacher from episode 6 of the tv show talks about boundaries yet touches Yellow guy constantly Literally all but one of these directly harmed Yellow btw

Reminds me of how a toxic family members (e.g narcisstic parents) tries to keep the normal one around doesn't want to let them go and tries to make that person stay with them at all cost just to exploit the poor soul. They often manipulate the individual with the "proper family" propaganda to exploit them.
This episode actually reminded me of the uncanny weirdness that can come from going to visit a friends house as a kid. It can be an uncomfortable window into somebody else's lives and some times you see things you feel like you shouldn't be. And you don't have to life skills to deal with it yet. Anybody know what I'm talking about?

This episode takes "my dad could beat up your dad" to a new level
It's interesting that in episode 3, yellow guy is inserted into the role of the mother of the family. Then in episode 4, when he's guessing the password and guesses "rat eyes", duck says "your maiden name", which only a married woman would have.
The reason they don't have bunk beds like they say in the song (in my opinion) is because without having their mother yet, they don't see them selves as a real family

While I do really like your interpretation on Roy, I think he's a distant father who cares about his son but doesn't care in your traditional loving family way. He can't express love but he's there for yellow guy, even in a pushy way. It could definitely be an abusive kind of love though. I think of Roy more as an alcoholic father.

Given that in his only line of dialogue he implies that he is not only responsible for all that Yellow had passed through but also that he planned to put him under worse torture all for an infraction that for his wording and Yellow's personality was likely small, perhaps even imaginiare, I think that is hard to argue that he cares for his son in any way.
It's wild that we saw all three of the puppets families tho. Duck has no one Red guy doesn't actually fit in with all the other red guys Yellow guy has Roy who, given YG has batteries on him, might genuinely BE a computer?

I always saw Yellow's distant and faraway reciting of the line, "Dad..." while sitting at the table later to mean that he's traumatized and conflicted by the fact that his father massacred and devoured an entire family, even if it was to save him.
I’m actually kind of surprised you didn’t really talk about how overjoyed Lily was to “mingle with the cousins.” There is something so wrong with that line.
Probably the most unnerving episode they've ever done. The lighting was phenominal and how the twins acted, the awkward pauses alongside the off counting they did, bothered me so much. Such a good episode.

Thank you for saying that about Roy. It's pretty clear he doesn't and has never cared about Yellow Guy. He probably would've eaten him too if he hadn't moved out of the way.
15:55 I actually 100% agree with you on that,because Roy doesn’t help his son,he just wanted chicken and to murder a family
My favourite idea of the family is that it's actually Roy's family. It has been theorised that yellow guy is made after Leslie, the shows in cannon creator of sorts I believe, late son David. If that's the case and Roy is called yellow guys dad, then it could be theorised that Roy may be Leslie's ex-husband. Back to the idea I believe in, the family could be Roy's side, with Leslie not liking any of them or atleast not liking any except maybe the twins, so she shows them as a bunch of creeps

I find it so adorable when Yellow says, "Dad. I knew you'd come," because Yellow rarely EVER mentions his father. It's just not a thing. They don't appear to have a relationship AT ALL. Roy is only seen with Yellow in the "TIME" episode of the web series, and now in Yellow's thought bubble in the first scene of this episode (and only in context of the twins talking about family members). So the fact that when he was kidnapped and bound to a table full of terrifying family fanatics and forced to be their new Mother is when Yellow was thinking, "I'll be okay, I know Dad will save me, eventually, somehow." That's flippin' cute. I'm glad he was right.

In Jobs, Duck and Red don't want to fall in line the way they are expected to; Red doesn't want a job and Duck doesn't want to be a factory worker. Both of their dreams are crushed under the system until they accept it and become a part of it. -Transportation and Healthy Eating: both of these episodes see characters trying to escape. In Healthy Eating Red has already escaped and is trying to call Duck and Yellow to save them, yet Duck is stopped by the teachers. In Transportation Red wants to escape with Yellow and Duck. Again his efforts are foiled by a teacher when the car breaks down and Lesley restarts the show. In both episodes Red realizes they're in a prison and tries to save himself and the other 2. -Electricity and Dreams: in both of these episodes Yellow for the first time rejects the routine of the show; when he ignores the teachers in Dreams and becomes smart in Electricity. Both of these episodes also reveal who is behind the show (Roy and Lesley), and how they are running it (the machine and the dollhouse). In each a showrunner confronts a character and gives them the power to stop the show. Red succeeds when he pulls the plug but Yellow fails when he shreds the book.

Also YES YES YE I love LOVE how this show is an adult show but isn't like you said , sexual , or even in my opinion , overly grossly Gorey , like this show is so tame compared to most adult shows that when they showed Duck peeing for like that split second in the coffin I was genuinely caught off guard . Lol
This episode takes one element from episode 4 if the KZread show which I think is neat, The Apple tries to initiate a lesson on healthy eating, perhaps a more educational one since it's now June 20th and not June 19th, but Lily and Todney interrupt and kill the apple to push that its because they aren't a family they can't open the chuddle dollips, and now they need to be taught how to have a family. It's sort of like how in episode 4 if the KZread show, the lesson was SUPPOSED to be taught by the globe, but Collin interrupted this lesson and hijacked it to teach them about computers.
The family scent bit makes me laugh every time xD Family is my favorite episode, I love the songs especially Duck's solo song. I love the way it reminds me of the first Texas chainsaw massacre as well.
"Its Royin' time" *Roys everywhere*
most people get the saying "blood is thicker than water" as meaning, the bonds between relatives is stronger than the bond between friends. That is because the saying has been abreviated. The full saying is "the blood shared on the battlefield is thicker than the water of the woomb", meaning that friendships and shared experiences forge stronger bonds than the happenstance of a genetic connection.

thanks for the flashbang at 15:02 really got me serious for a second
I really like the messaging through each episode and the original web series. There’s a message being sent but through the duration of the video it shares other narratives. Like with family, it starts very heavily with Lily and Todney pushing the nuclear family ideal and refusing that anything else, especially the three main characters, could be a family. As the episode progresses we get different forms of family. Ducks lack of any family, Red’s desire to find his family (putting himself in risk and giving a lot of himself for it) only for it to be not what he was expecting and him to be disliked by his bio family. And yellow, who’s dad has been speculated (or just is, in my opinion) abusive. All three have a different view on family (either not caring for it or wanting it deeply) and all three have a mostly disfunctional form of a family. But they find solice with eachother. TL;DR I like the pro found-family narrative and how all the characters have dysfunctional families showing all the different kinds of hardships
Great stuff!

i reckon that the teleportation powers of the twins is actually a big part of the episode; and the house is sort of a construct of a teacher like how in the originals tony or colin or shrignold could bring the guys to the future or a digital world or the love cult; they basically teleport the characters around and bring them to their "places' like id imagine even if their transport journey let them out into a 'real" world (not the real world) stuff like petersons and sons and friends bits and parts ltd or todney and lilys house wouldnt be "real' places they could go visit of their own accord
I like how no one notices that Leslie isn't the most powerful in the show because if you pay attention there are more stairs behind Leslie which means there's someone more powerful in the show that has been introduced yet or maybe it's just roy

Kurtis Conner reference at the end. Perfect!

I was rewatching this episode and wanted to note to you that the House Wallet (where Duck keeps the photos that are not them) still has their IDs in it and Duck's ID still has the big 'X' eyes showing he's still dead. Nice bit of continuity.

yeah its pretty obvious to anyone watching Roy only wants the chicken, what with him saying "yum yum yum" and shots emphasising that he's looking at the chicken and not his son. One COULD argue he may have come to save Roy for his selfish sadistic reasons at first but at the end of the day he wants that chicken more than he wants his son. I think what's even more egregious how people say he "ate the family"when it's more likely he just murdered them normally because they were in the way of the chicken, the thing he actually wants to eat.
