Bad comedy timeing. By the time you get a laugh it's over.
Each episode is only a few minuts long and has a the same openig and ending which takes up most of the video.
THIS IS NOT SOUTH PARK WITH ANIMALS!! THIS ISN"T WORTHY
OF TOUCHING MR HANKY'S POO TRAIL!!

Happy Tree Friends...

They are cute and funny. I could suit this only over 12-old
people, because it is so VIOLENTIC! It reminds me from Ren & Stimpy, South Park and Beavis & Butthead. It is comedic, and many cute animals habit the episodes. There is Cuddles the yellow rabbit, Sniffles anteater (he is extra CUTE!!),wicked
Vietnam Veteran mink Flippy and the mischievous raccoon burglars Lifty and Shifty.

If you are young, but like cartoons, buy this if you want.
I liked this, because the cuddly characters and big fun

If you're even looking at this review, you know what Happy Tree Friends is, and what to expect. You'll already know whether or not you'll find the stuff on this DVD funny.

But I wouldn't really reccomend you buy this DVD, unless you just have to have the cartoons on a disc. Considering the price, and the ridiculously short run time of the DVD, this is very poor value for money - especially when you consider there's a second volume that could easily fill out this disc. The compression isn't very good on this one, so I doubt it was a space issue.

While I love the Happy Tree Friends, I just can't imagine parting with that much money for so little. I reccomend just watching them online.

This is in the same vain as south Park or Spike and mIke Sick and Twisted, where it's violent disturbing cartoon skits, what makes it enjoyable is that it's always witty. I recommend this DVD, there is a little redundancy when you go from one skit to another, in that it lags due to the "intro" they have on the onset of every skit.

I love Happy Tree Friends. Don't pay attention to some of the negative reviews. Love them or hate them. If Itchy and Scratchy from the Simpsons crack you up, then buy these DVDs. Vol 2 has a great inside look at the creators of the HTFs. lol all of the way.

Happy Tree Friends are like Itchy and Scratchy for the even-shorter attention span. With their pastel colors, big round outlines, and situations that would be painfully predictable if they had any story to them at all, the best thing about this series is the infectious theme music. Unfortunately, said theme is missing completely from this DVD. For the full experience, visit the Happy Tree Friends' website. This is how these cartoons should be viewed, anyway. At least the Flash will load, there; the copy of the DVD that we viewed was so poorly compressed as to be unwatchable, plus it crashed every computer and component dvd player we played it in.

After reading many of these reviews I find that some people just don't know how to laugh. THESE ARE CARTOONS! It is not real and they always come back to life for the next eposide. Sure, a cartoon skunk getting his head fried off at the local burger joint by a chipmunk that is having a viet nam flashback is a bit grotesque, but thats why its funny. That is why there is a disclaimer at the bottom of the webpage saying "not for small children or big babies" or something like that. This truely is a funny cartoon and good for days when you just want to laugh right now instead of watching an entire hour and a half video.

My Dad first showed me this a few weeks ago and I've been watching it ever since. This is the funniest cartoon I have ever seen. If you haven't seen it then just imagine the Itchy and Scratchy show from the Simpsons now just imagine 100 X funnier than that. If you don't believe me go to happytreefriends.com and see an episode for your self and see how extremely funny this is. This is a must have DVD for all!

If you don't like cartoon violence, don't even watch. These little creatures take cartoon violence soaring to new heights. Basically, there is a cast of adorable characters who just happen to have minor problems - Flippy has Vietnam flashbacks that make him go on killing sprees; Handy is the handyman that has no hands; Lumpy is, well...Lumpy. Each cartoon is only about a minute long, but it is always fun to watch the different ways the writers of the show come up with to have the characters kill each other off (always purely by accident). It is just a fun show, NOT FOR KIDS, that you watch when you need your spirits uplifted.

This was disappointing on so many levels.

The animals dont even talk or anything, the intro theme song is about as long as the episode, they just bounce around and then get killed, pretty boring stuff. I dont understand why people get so excited over this.
