Hey everyone, thank you so much for your response on my video! I really appreciate all your feedback, whether you agree or disagree. I'm thinking about making a follow up replying to the comments and theories towards the end of the month, so keep your eyes peeled 👀 Thank you, again!! -600 Colour
My one disagreement on your analysis of 'Friendship' is that its more of a parody/criticism of those 90s-2000s antibullying campaigns and toxic friendships. As the 'Ok Stop' organization Warren was once a part of, and is still appropriating, is a clear reference to the kinds of anti-bullying catchphrases you'd see in schools. Warren is also a textbook example of an abusive/toxic friend, as he doesn't so much want friends but the idea of friendship that he can control. Its why he insists on calling himself an eagle, he's pretending to be something he's not, a literal parasitic worm, so people will trust him.

One theory, albeit one that is a stretch, is that what Lamp said about reincarnation is true, and warren was reincarnated as a Worm instead of his favourite Animal, an Eagle. It's also possible other people were reincarnated as objects, which could be what the Teacher characters are.

I have a mini theory about it. The Lamp from the Dreams episode reappears in Death for a brief cameo and tries to answer Yellow Guy's question "Where do we go when we die?" The Lamp goes on a detailed, almost comical explanation about how everyone who dies is transported below the Earth and meets the council where they have to relive their life as a performance for a pound. In the first episode you might remember at the end, the briefcase tosses a coin (possibly a pound) into Duck's eye. So the cast could be dead and in the afterlife.

TBH I've been kind of disappointed with how little coverage this show is getting on youtube. It's mostly just reaction videos and the occasional non-spoiler review, so I'm really happy to see a video like this which goes a bit more in depth into this incredible show. As for the theories in this video, I'm not sure i agree with a whole lot of it, the idea that the Mulhoven sequence is a representation of something that actually happened to the characters is pretty farfetched, as it isnt presented any differently to sequences like yellow's retirement party, or the transport montage. And the idea that Leslie is yellow's mother doesn't seem to have any compelling evidence pointing to that either. Although the theory of Duck being a former soldier does make some sense, as he does seem to be frequently placed near war memorabilia or discussing the military, however the photo of him in a spitfire Duck did say wasn't something he ever did. All in all, any interpretation of this show is just as significant as any other, and I appreciate you sharing yours. Great Video.

I feel like there's something significant being implied by Yellow Guy's ascent through the house and through the big boy's and bigger boy's rooms, where they are very obviously warped versions of Red Guy and Duck, but neither room has a Yellow Guy variant (unless you count the test subject from the bigger boy's room), but they all seem to be pretty familiar with Yellow Guy Personally I think it either means that yellow guy is linked closely to Lesley and by proxy fairly important throughout the house, or that he is wholly unrelated to everything happening and is not really supposed to be there at all

@@danielshore1457 I thought something like this too, especially after spotting him playing 'jump the lump' when he was in his own head playing with his brain friends, and later in the episode the worm telling him to get it looked at. Also he has a D on his clothing and the dead guys grave is marked David, not Duck. duck keeps insisting he's not dead and its not his grave.
Whilst I agree with the anti-authority theme is more prevalent in this series, I do think that they also tie in with the "parody of common topics in kids shows" theme that the original series seemed to have: Jobs' is about how sometimes kids shows try and make having a job sound more special than valuing childhood and spare time Death is the most genuine lesson even it's a bit cruel, because it's the only subject that isn't covered frequently in kid's media. Family's is fairly obvious, making fun of people who value blood ties over everything, even if their family is full of awful people Friends is about anti-bullying programs and how their advice might just lead to friend groups being torn apart. It's worth pointing out how the episode also has strong ties to the internet, and whilst this might just be because both this episode and the original computer episode were both episode 4, I think it's also poking fun at online anti-bullying initiatives (ie BullyHunters) Transport is probably the hardest but I think it might be about how one doesn't need to pursue something greater to enjoy life Electricity is about how kids shows often try and to portray anything that is new as being automatically better I also read a theory that Time Child was going to be about the trope of "cool kids who force you to do dangerous things to be considered their friend" but spun in a far more positive light, where he is doing his best to teach the lesson instead of torturing them.

another thing in support of David being YG's real name, the Coffin originally thought Yellow Guy was the dead character and might've made the Gravestone before he realized his mistake
Lesley isn't the overseer of the house though. When yellow guy starts to leave, you see in the background there's another hidden staircase which leads to another floor above Leslie, which you called the attic stairs at 6:35 . Every flight of stairs is quite literally ascending levels of consciousness, so if there's anything above her (which is assumed since there's another flight of stairs), then she's just a fake overseer. Whatever he would have gotten from the book would have been a false truth

That’s what I thought, every level is ascending in consciousness! The first level they are on this show, more like they were in the first season, following the motions. Not really thinking introspectively about themselves or their lives. (I think this is to say how some people are “npc like.”) But in this season they leveled up (the blackboard chalk scene with algorithms written all around while red guy and duck sat) and got to thinking. Ie red guy trying to escape in Transport. He realized he wasn’t happy and there was more to life than just sitting in the house and listening to the teachers. The next level up is in the white science looking room. I think this implies the third season will be them using technology to advance themselves to the last level: finding God (?) (like man is on track to do) / oneness with the universe/all knowledge having. Which is where Leslie (old woman) is. She is the creator. Problem is yellow guy skipped a level, so he got sent back. Gotta work to get to that level. I think this is all a spiritual reference for human kind’s expansion of consciousness 🙏🏼😁

I have a TON of theories about this show but one of the main ones I have has to do with the order of the last two episodes. Just like how people theorised about the youtube episode 6 being a prologue, I also think that TV episode 6 isn't in chronological order and happens before episode 5 and that's because of the intro. The part where Yellow guy describes his dream and enters a downward spiral when he can't remember the entirety of it aligns PERFECTLY with the plot of episode 6 when you connect the dots.

I think you're onto something, I mean Yellow has definitely made this trip before because of the photos...
I love that you're as deranged as I am and family is your favorite. Also such concise analysis. You've basically summarized every Easter egg and piece of analysis I've seen in countless other videos, but in 7 min. Love it
I think the stairs in the attic just proves Lesley wasn't the mastermind behind it all as she tried to lead Yellow Guy to believe, she may know who the puppetmaster(s) are, but they're above even her. Her book likely didn't continue all the answers, just ones plausible enough to trick the trio into believing that's the truth and moving on. I believe the series creators may have been in the even higher room, or Yellow Guy, an older version perhaps.
See, with my theory, is that every episode they forget everything that they’ve done the episode before. Unless, of course, they see it. Let me explain, it’s like a trigger. If any of you have PTSD, or trauma, you may have had one before. Seeing something, smelling something, hearing something, touching something, or even tasting something can give you a trigger. This happens to Yellow Guy in the original web series when all of the teachers taunt him in his dream, with Red Guy watching. As can see, Red Guy didn’t necessarily have one, but he experienced something that could possibly be traumatic, although they basically experience traumatic shit all the time. Duck Guy was definitely traumatized watching Yellow Guys arm be severed apart by the machine in Episode 1 of the new series, which could maybe cause something in a newer season (if it is happening). All of these could lead to them finding out. That book that Lesley gave them had all the secrets that could unlock so much to them, but they shredded it because of Yellow Guys ignorance. In Episode 5, Red Guy doesn’t want to go back to their “home” because he wants to find something new. Something different. But what they don’t get yet is that they are stuck in a maze, and are unable to find the exit. Red Guy freaks out at this and tries finding any way to leave, because he knows some shit is going on, because compared to both Duck Guy and Yellow Guy, he’s the more intelligent and precise one. But that all changes when they get restarted back at their “house.” When Yellow Guy mourns over Ducks death, he digs him up, does that mean Duck Guy is still dead? When Red Guy was stuck in the computer realm in the original web series, did he ever leave it? When Yellow Guy ate Duck Guy in the original web series, did he eat him on purpose? This show is so confusing, but these just might be my overthinking dramatic brain speaking, and this show could just be for comedy.
It astounds me how I was completely correct in how some theorists can't tell what a gag and a story-aspect is.
that one outro duck sang is still stuck in my head

and the documents he forged that led to many deaths
Oh my god the batteries in Yellow's chest represent a pacemaker.
My one quibble with your proposed backstory for Duck is that the memories shown by the grave aren't his. David is inscribed on the tombstone and it's implied that they got the wrong headstone since Duck comments that he didn't do any of the things shown in the little slideshow. Otherwise brilliant!
This show slaps, I really hope we get a second season, it was nice to explore the characters more and see the interactions between them, stuff we didn’t get much of on the web series.
Regarding Roy in Mulhoven, my thought on it was that he ran the webseries, but Leslie took over the TV series from him and is trying to keep him out (hence why we only see Roy in flashbacks, hiding in the background or in disguise). It could be that Roy taught David about topics of insurance and other more mature subjects, trying to help out his son. Perhaps he blamed himself for David's death, hence why he would have made the Yellow Guy robot to look like his son, and why YG isn't exactly the brightest kid. He blames himself because he thinks his lessons made YG careless, hence why the lessons in the webseries have relatively incompetent teachers and contradictory lessons. Compare that to when Leslie takes over. She tackles more mature subjects (jobs, death, family), and by the end her meddling (in the form of elec-tracy) leads to Yellow Guy becoming intelligent again. And what happens when he leaves Red Guy and Duck? They end up blowing the fuses, and stuck in darkness with Roy's teachers. My theory is that season 2 of the TV show will give a sort of rivalry between Roy and Leslie, the two of them eventually resulting in a conflict with our main 3 at the center. If Duck is indeed a war veteran, like a lot of theories say, then He may very well be the first to notice the conflict going on. However, he's shown himself to have quite an ego, so he may not realise the danger they're in until much later. Red Guy will be forced to intervene, and perhaps the three of them will have a schism. I think Duck will end up siding with Leslie, while Red Guy sides with Roy. Yellow Guy is caught in the middle, and has to make a choice. Does he trust a guilty father, who tried to use manipulation to prevent a tragedy from occurring again? Or does he trust an absent mother, who, based on the context in the Mulhoven scene, was the one who unalived David? He's shown himself to have a closee link to Roy, and Roy even showed up when YG was in danger (in the family episode).
i like that i was able to pick up on all the messages now that i’m 18 it makes me appreciate the series a lot more
I think Yellow Guy is alive and in a simulation, and Leslie is testing him. Red Guy could be a sort of agent who's supposed to help Yellow while keeping tabs on him (we know that, unlike the others, he can leave the house whenever he pleases). Duck is probably just an NPC designed to round out the crew.
i dont know why but i just felt like a comfortable happiness watching red guy, yellow guy, and duck head bang to being on the internet 😭😭😭
Given the web series is connected, I think Red was a friend of David and the end of the web series was Red trying to get his friends back, possibly being a friend to David and his possible Grandpa being Duck. I mean Episode 5 was very much beholden if the classic characterization of Red but given the more energetic attitude if the series as if he woke up to it all again.
There’s also this kinda post apocalyptic motif in the show, real dog bones in the ground in a pan to ducks grave, Lesley not knowing what a bird is and calling it a rat, and of course the trash heap. Weird to think about it
I was thinking about Leslie as Yellow Guy's mom and began to wonder why she is human (or human to an extent) and Roy is a puppet and it makes me think maybe Roy is also dead and living there against his will

The Brain friend theory: Red guy and duck are yellow guys brain friends In the brain friends episode you can see that when yellow guy goes into his brain, he turns into an animation symbolizing a deeper more internal version of himself. Later in the episode he goes as far as entering an even deeper level of self( probably his brains original thoughts before consciousness ). The animation also looks another step further away from realism( again symbolizing an even deeper, more inner, state of himself) But at the end of it, the brain worm eventually finds the yellow guy and brings him back again slowly in order from almost 2d to puppet form again. But as we can see from the last episode, their world is not a world with only puppets because there is a human presented. It is shown that the characters we see on screen are not actually characters but toys she plays with and creates scenarios with which are the adventures we see our three protagonists endure throughout the episodes. So if that’s the case, I question how the yellow guy found his way into the real world if he is supposedly just a toy. My theory is that yellow guy hasn’t left his brain yet. If his inner self is defined in a 2d animation style, one layer above of that state of consciousness would be the claymation. Their world as puppets could possibly be another state of mind just higher than the claymation but not completely real yet. When yellow guy is speaking to the woman in the room he asks: “can’t I stay here with you?” To which she replies: “oh no, you’re not my real son” I think this means yellow guy is a real boy just a layer inside his brain which is perceived to be a puppet like universe. And I think the woman saying this could possibly be his mother trying to convince him to come out like the brain worm.

Leslie is not in control, because there's another upstairs above the attic that means that there are even more people in control of this messed up children's TV show, I think that roy is the main one in control of this series, he's in every episode for a reason.
I thought the pink blob killed the duck in that one scene but what threw me off was in episode 6 as yellow guy is walking upstairs to find lesley you hear red and duck talking to one another and you actually hear duck say "then there was the pink blob thing that looked just like me" now I'm all sorts of confused.
You deserve more subs
Can we just talk about how good the series is foreshadowing is in the series? Family is a particular perfect example of it for me, since they use Family Game Time, as a great way to foreshadow Yellow Guy being turned into the families mother, by having Lily and Todney give him Mother’s Piece, and telling Duck it should only be touched by Mother (Yellow Guy), when he attempts to take it off Yellow Guy. I think the Newspaper in Death, is also used pretty well. Since not many would notice it would actually foreshadow Warren the Worm, in Friendship, and how he was fired from the OK Stop organisation for harassment.
the CGI of the friendship episode reminds me a lot of late 90s cgi cartoons like the Jellikins!
My original theory on the friendship episode was that the "Voices in brain" Mentioned by notebook were the brain friends, its a large stretch I just thought that would be pretty funny.

3:20 there is also a nazi symbol in the time episode supporting that duck fought in ww2
Another theory is that yellow guy has a brain tumor and its all in his imagination, we first see 'lump' as the claymation thing that appears when duck dies in death, is hinted at in multiple background images, appears again where yellow guy is in his head playing 'jump the lump', again later where he asks worm to play the game with him and worm tells him he should get it looked at.

I wonder if yellow guys real life counterpart is above Leslie. I have almost no reason to believe it is other than the fact that Leslie said "you're not my real son" but when I think about it, we see yellow guy get hit by a car in one episode, but it's never stated that the real life YG died for sure. But if we can assume he didn't (still holds up if he did, but it's a bit more morbid that way), that would explain why he would be above Leslie, as his character is an insert for a real life counterpart. And since yellow guy is the target in all of these lessons, and seems to feed into the teachers. It's only correct to assume that Leslie is making the show centered around him, and probably looks to him for show ideas, and since these are assuming to be kids shows, it's only fair to assume a child is the top of the chain. To further reinforce the fact that a child or money, or simply there is no deeper meaning to the show is at the top, yellow guy said in episode 6 the opposite of down is "a bigger one on top of that, and a bigger one on top of that, and on top of all that, it's a little tiny one on top of it all."

If Yellow Guy is meant to be a recreation of David. What does that make Red Guy and Duck? Maybe their recreations of other family members. With red guy being his Uncle and Duck being his grandpa.
One thing sitting in the back of my mind is if there is any chance that the Vicar might be a 'father' figure for David. Not sure how often those terms are interchangable in the UK.
You are the only person I have seen that noticed the same thing I noticed when the blob edward was in the same position as the rocking chair. I do not believe the "duck" we were seeing after the blob episode was the same person until some how he was "replaced" again. I don't know if he dies again in between that but, in episode 6 we see the tortured blob edward with the "bigger guys"
3:10 if it's showing david's memories and it's clearly duck doesn't that mean that he is david or does it show the memories of who's in the grave
I have a theory about episode 2, I think the replacement duck is actually David, because they could get Duck and David confused because they look the exact same.
Does anyone else think ducks pocket square looks like a pink triangle (circa 30's germany)? That's it that's my contribution.
It's VERY interesting that Roy isn't yellow in the Mulhoven section 🤔
There are constant references to beings living inside the earth, which makes me wonder if Lesley is one of those beings.
I'm just here to say that I think Yellow Guy is David. Purely based on the fact that Roy has a monogrammed pair of overalls and Yellow Guy's overalls are also monogrammed.
themes: cigarettes.
My interpretation of the Jobs song was more of that you spend K-12 talking about jobs like some vague future thing, planning what you want to do later on, but then time keeps moving forward and eventually you're just dropped off into the first shitty labor job you can find. K-12 makes you dream of being an astronaut, a CEO, a firefighter, a vet, but doesn't really give you the steps you need to take, and then one day the vague concept of a job disappears and you actually have to go get one, and if you let yourself get caught off guard (like when the briefcase disappears) it's going to be something you hate like food service or retail, and you could end up stuck there if you don't seek out some form of higher education.

But if Leslie is Yellow Guy’s (possibly David Rateye? I dunno) grieving mother, and she’s the puppet master, then why would she put him in such awful situations? Like drowning in oil, torture, put in an electric chair, or have his whole skin and body rot? Why would she let probably her interpretation of her spouse torture her boy? Great theory, but Yellow Guy being the main target of anguish throughout the series when his mother is behind the scenes doesn’t make much sense to me, especially when she’s mourning him. If it’s true, shes amongst some of the worst mother’s in media for standing by and letting him suffer more than Yellow Guy already did in life.

Since the show came out, I've had several theories, and I keep changing them. My personal theory is that Yellow Guy, whose name is likely David was hit by a car while chasing a bird and died. Lesley, his grieving Mother created the show to cope with her loss, and yellow guy is sort of like the replacement for her son. I actually believe that Lesley is slowly turning herself into a Puppet so she can be more like yellow guy. It sounds crazy at first, but notice how her face has stiches in it, and has a yellowish tone to it. It's pretty clear she's mentally unhinged.

@@jonnyb.animationstutorials7119 For sure the demeanor of the show, from ambivert and restrictive to insanity, would portray the turn of an unhinged individual. But blaming the child for the sins of the father is uh…rough. Mourning and blame are contrasting emotions with the death of a child, I still don’t think “David’s” torture throughout the series would make much context. I don’t think, even if Roy did leave the family for the pursuit of wealth, that a mother would take her anger out on a recreation of her child. I think she would be unhinged with love and grief if this was the case. The show is a symbolism. David, as the child, being tortured and targeted by teachers to show the depravity of the creators upon the most vulnerable. Their abuse and restrictions only further a broken and confused world view that finds no consistency. It’s fun to think of the show as a narrative story, but I don’t think that’s it’s intention. I could be completely wrong with season two, but I don’t think there’s enough to go off of to assume any narrative is beyond symbolism.

Maybe she's angry for different reasons, like she purposely created the show and world he lives in and made him to be like David, but for some reason despite looking like him and all that can be, he just can never be David? Either he acts too aloof and forgets everything or he questions her authority too much and maybe she's taking out internal anger at herself towards him. Idk I just keep thinking about that one black mirror episode, where this girlfriend purposely orders a clone of her boyfriend but in the end grows to hate him and try to figure out ways to end it. Maybe there is an anger that truly resides in that Lesley won't be able to get her son back at all and now she's stuck with this thing that looks like him but is nothing like how she remembers. "You're not my real son!"
I thought that Todney's name was Tommy for a while too
6:35 they probably didn't kill the original duck, and killed the replacement. why? because we know that original Duck can't bleed, its only smoke that comes out of him, not blood.

Yep stain replace the duck guy because if you look closely you will see worms in his neck
My main theory is that yellow guy is an adult
Yellow guy name is Doi Idk I just know
Assuming stain and duck didn’t swap positions of screen then yes the clone did kill the real duck
That symbol is Red's name
How can I support this show legally. I live outside the UK.

Very difficult to due, best option is to get a VPN and connect it to the UK
The Friendship analysis is...kind of a stretch. Yeah I thought it was a parody of those out of touch campaigns aimed at kids. Like D.A.R.E and such.

I firmly believe that Lesley is David's mom but yellow guy isn't David. "You're not my real son". Lesley is also not in charge he just has to mind the house the characters. They're all "dancing in in chains". What about the lamp's speech about the re-enacting your life after you die for the counsel?
no one ever mentions the D on yellow guy's clothes
A D written on his what?
Isn’t he a crow not a duck? He introduced himself as a crow thing in the titles song…
I'm real okey ı'm reallllllllllllllllllllllllllll
I am not British, how can I legally support this show? It aired on Channel 4, I know we have American BBC, but I don’t think we have American Channel 4. I’ve been thinking about showing this series to my family and having a watch-together, but if I can’t do that legally, there’s not much I can do outside of hooking up my computer to our living room TV and playing the illegal KZread uploads.
Yellow guy is not a child he is 38

Yeah, he just has stunted development due to having bad batteries.

1:54 i kinda disagree with all your views on the morals jobs: yes in this one i agree but i think its more of a larger, low end jobs tend to be like that overall amazon is just the biggest punching bag rn for how particularly horrible it is family: the possee is not a found family neither at the start or at the end and both families are shown to be similar in how both want to get some material thing marked as "family" the family combo for the old timey family and the family sized pack of chips in the gang frienships: is about how friendships can be toxic in non easily vissible ways exemplified by warren the eagle by, altering his story to make himself feel more important, forcing people to do something they dont want to do, and a form of unwanted flirting near the end transport: is a romp about travel, stuff like duck getting all the fun stuff, the vehicle breaking down, and someone attempting to keep going with the plan despite no one else wanting it and giving some forshadowing for the next episode elecricity: i agree with most of what you said but i disagree with the price of elecricity bit, since the bill is dismissed as bollocks by the smart yellow guy, i also think theres a secondary theme about education content, on how its either super dumed down, confusing and trying to do too much at once (big boys room), or how it encourages experimentation without any point (bigger boys room) i fully agree with your opinion on the death episode
