Oh man, so pleasantly messed up and weird. The folks who makes this stuff are frighteningly good at taking the bright and cheery world of children's television and making it disturbing. This short, which turns a chipper lesson on healthy eating into a bizarre Soylent Green style bit about the puppets being turned into food and fed to one another builds to its reveal slowly and creepily. The bird realizing something's wrong and not being able to get away and the repetition of the song made for a nice unnerving atmosphere. And details like the giant can eating the bird's organs or the spaghetti that looked like the red mop guy were freaky as all hell. This gimmick could wear out if overdone, but these short clips feel like just enough.
