It is hard to make a gag in only 18 seconds, but this one didn’t grab me.

Still, as their YouTube logo says, Happy Tree Friends is YouTube’s Most Viewed Animation. If you like your Happy Tree Friends, here’s more for you to enjoy!

Happy Tree Friends “Lumpy’s Lame Card Trick”

Lumpy needs a volunteer to help him with his card trick. Do you have the psychic ability to make him look like a real magician? Step right up, you won’t believe your eyes!

5 Swirlies!

Uh… wow. It’s an interactive episode.

Through the magic of YouTube annotations, you get to help Lumpy with a card trick. The mechanics behind the illusion are pretty easy if you think about it (and many commentators will helpfully explain it to you) but it is still fun and well done.

I also like that each of the six endings has its own unique fun visual gag after the trick is done. And yes, I did play the trick four times.

Super short, but very enjoyable! It’s nice to see Happy Tree Friends do something very different from the formula they have grown into. I’m giving it 5 Swirlies on the idea alone. But I don’t think it’ll end up in the Friday Playlist…

Mime needs a job!

Part 1 of 5, Mime to Five chronicles the attempts by a mime to find gainful employment.

The jokes are mostly based on the fact that mimes can’t talk, and they pretend to act out things instead of actually doing them.

There’s a few chuckles, but nothing I would say that makes this installment stand out. Maybe the next 4 parts will have what this one is missing?
