Made2Express There’s A Crowd from Arthur, it teaches a good lesson about jealousy. But the part where Prunella got her leg stuck behind her head as a child TRAUMATIZED me.
Courage is the most MVP cartoon character, he's living in such a horror life, always protecting his owners no matter what fear comes at him, this dog is my childhood hero
What adds the cherry on top for disturbing is his monologue on the bus. He states that what you are hearing is in his head. Meaning other than what he says directly to Muriel and Courage, he is shaving courage in complete silence in the bathroom. The entire time he monologues and hears music in his head, overpowering the dogs screams.
I saw this episode as an adult and it triggered some nasty memories. It is absolutely a metaphor for sexual abuse. Having the metaphor being hair is a brilliant one, because hair is a huge part of your identity. It's one of the few things about your body that you can control and it shapes how people see you. To have someone forcibly take that away without your consent, especially with no way to defend yourself, and ESPECIALLY when the loved ones meant to protect you laugh, ignore, or enable the abuser... do I really need to elaborate? And after the abuser gets what he wants part of you is missing.
Omg same, I literally can’t watch this without crying, it terrified me as a kid bc I resembled something that I eventually went thru and I think it scares me more than it as an adult than it did wen I was a kid
GOOD! I'M NOT THE ONLY ONE WHO WAS TRAUMATIZED BY THIS CARTOON!😏 NOT THAT IT WAS GOOD THAT YOU WERE AFRAID, BUT I DIDN'T HAVE MY 📱 THEN, SO I DIDN'T KNOW THERE WERE OTHER KIDS AND TEENS WHO WERE SCARED OF THESE CARTOONS!
@@newguy3588 thats because she thought Eustace was going to the hardware store like he was supposed to else pretty sure she would of tried getting him out
The Amazing Deadpool idk man, I definitely see some metaphors. Not child molestation, but definitely some kind of sex offense or deviancy. Especially with how he explains how his interest in hair developed through his youth.
It is not a child molestation. The character represents someone with a twisted fetichism. Some people are into weird stuff... feet, domination/submission (masochism/sadism)... it is about twisted fantasies and inclinations that even "normal looking" people have.
0:06 "I am so thankful to God that I did not watch this episode when I was a kid." Good for you, dude. I had to watch this behind a couch when I was 6 because I felt so disturbed and uncomfortable whenever Fred came on the screen.
@@blujaebird trichophilia, it's not an allegory. Also he's shaving it's not really the same as hair grooming. Also grooming involves gifts and stuff, from what I saw he got really excited and couldn't hold back because of his trichophilia
Fred was my favorite. To me villains who smile, laugh, and talk in rhyme are the best because its something more sinister if you clearly enjoy harrassing people rather. Those that are quiet, slow, or brooding just aren't scary.
I fucking hate this guy, the only difference between him being a metaphor and not an actual pedophile is the fact that it’s not on adult swim.. that’s why homeboy is ending this video on such a positive note. I’m confident this episode encapsulates the helplessness of a child being molested more* than anyone other from of media ever.
after i heard fred was a metaphor for csa, it made so much fucking sense to me bc something about him is legitimately SO triggering/terrifying. especially with him being a family member and all and how courage was forced to "play nice" even though he was SO scared i feel so sick watching this episode
Lmao same. At this point it's almost impossible that there's an episode of CTCD that I haven't watched. I was a little disturbed to watch it when I was a kid, but it was still fun to watch. Also- Ren and Stimpy was the only show that I haven't watched as a child :')
Ikr! I see lots of comments saying how creeped out they were from this show. But I always loved it, was never scared watching it. :) Still love it and I appreciate it more now as an adult. ❤️💙
I have a friend with a fucking bald fetish. I almost got banned from his discord server for calling him “freaky fred” but with the fancy meme text like FreakyBob
The most disturbing thing about this was unlike other villains he didn't even do anything technically evil to him and still scarred him the most .... Just goes to show the deepest wounds are mental ones
I used to love this episode as a child, but now, I LOATHE it; Not because of Fred's disturbing nature, but of the way he abuses Courage and Muriel is outright unsympathetic to the poor dog. What really angers me about this episode is the scene where Fred forces pancakes down Courage's throat and chokes him. If that isn't anger-inducing, I don't know what is.
Took the words from my mouth. It was so disturbing. As a child this was a funny episode but as an adult when I see the context of it's actions and associating them with child abuse this is just disturbing.
Dude, I keep coming back to see it as some kind of sexual abuse, but in a way that kids will not see But remember, reaching out to get help takes a lot of courage
I think this episode is a metaphor about child predators. Because of how courage is often meant to act as the child of the family, his owners are like his parents, and as kids watching the show, we are meant to relate to courage the most. In addition to this, Fred only has an interest in courage, not Muriel, even though she has hair on her head too. The girl that he shaved the hair off of resembles a child a lot. In fact both his past victims are small and innocent looking. Not only that but often times molestation happens by someone you know, a relative for example, and other members of the family disregard them as a possible threat purely because they are family, entrusting them alone with their children, which is exactly what Muriel allowed to happen, and even after he is taken away to the asylum, she still sees him as completely innocent, which reflects the reality of child predators far too much to ignore. To top it off, the way Fred says "naughty" has such an undertone of sexual deviancy for it to simply be about serial killing. That's just my opinion though :)
@@ibrahimihsan2090 the more hair the better for Fred right? How is it for pedophiles? The younger the better right? I think that’s how the hair is portrayed.
i actually watched this episode when i was younger, i really remembered it. i wasn’t traumatized or anything, because i really like weird stuff. but it was a pretty interesting episode, you can say the least
I have to politely disagree. In terms of being SA'd, you do NOT have to forgive to heal. With time, I stopped feeling so angry at my abuser, but I never forgave him and never will. Because what he did is not OK, and he knew that. You don't have to decide that "nah, it's OK" because ultimately it doesn't affect your ability to move on. They're responsible for hurting you and nothing changes that whether or not you forgive them.
I wouldn't say forgiveness is saying "That's okay." That's denial, not forgiveness. It's not okay to hurt people, and lying about it being okay isn't the same as forgiveness. Getting along with someone and saying it's water under the bridge isn't forgiveness either. Forgiveness is a conscious decision to let go of anger and resentment towards someone who has harmed you, deciding to let go, and move on.
Man just like Goosebumps, Courage The Cowardly Dog is one of those shows that I love watch as a kid in day and I get super excited 🤗 but when it's bedtime Nightmares begins 😨
Damn man, thank you for the kind words and motivation I’ve dealt with some traumatic events that has split my family apart for years and I’ve been holding on to a grudge to that person that caused all this pain and heartache. It’s time to forgive and move on but never forget. Thank you again, all the aggression and anger I have towards them is not worth it and I need to let it go and live my life and live it to the fullest
The reason why people don't share traumatic experiences with friends other than embarrassment is the baggage it holds. Think about it, you're unloading your baggage onto a friend who, most likely won't know what to do with said baggage or, you may not have any friends you can safely trust with that information because most of your friends are simply friends of convenience. If you're trying to get over a traumatic experience, seek professional help if you can afford it. Trying to get through it on your own is possible but, past traumatic experiences can subconsciously hold you back in life until you get to the root cause and deal with it. Stay safe out there folks.
When I watched this episode back then as a kid I actually thought that *Fred is a nice guy,* other characters act nice but is actually evil. Meanwhile Fred looks evil but never did anything evil to Courage or anyone in the Household. Its just that his obsession for hair makes him look evil.
To be honest I didn’t find this episode creepy as a little kid for me it was a normal cartoon episode Now as almost 18 I realise how creepy this episode actually is
I watched this episode (a long time ago) and almost DIED when Murial told Courage to the bathroom with Freaky Fred. That was years ago and now I don't even watch Netflix, but somehow seeing Freaky Fred again in this video reminded me lol.
There is no other episode Like Freaky Fred A sinister grin to Fill your heart with dread One would start to think He was off his meds For if he was, Fred became really... NAAAAUUUGHTYYYYYY.
This episode is the scariest for me. Fred's behavior reminds me of my abusive father - he kept a nice facade, but once nobody was around, he would do horrible things
It amazes me how even the scariest and most disturbing episodes of Courage the Cowardly Dog have the most beuatifull messages. These episodes arent just nightmare fueled, but we as children could learn something from them back in the days.
Tbh when i was kid like 8 or 9 years old i loved watching Courage the dog and never got disturbed or scared no matter how disturbing it is , i just find it interesting xd
The Great Fusilli is the most disturbing to me. That episode really stuck to me as a kid and still remember to this day. Courage playing with his owners's corpses is so messed up holy shit
Freaky" Fred, despite how creepy he is, it's strongly implied that he genuinely loves his aunt Muriel. And the feeling is mutual, as she's shown to dote on him despite his more...unpleasant, tendencies.
Honestly, the story Fred told us about his girlfriend was very suspicious.... He referred to her as a "girl." Like was he dating a child at some point in his adulthood? I hope he was also a child when he "dated" poor Barbara.
I'm also grateful I never found this when I was little. I can already count the sleepless nights I also love how you use the song of healing. It fits perfectly
I remember watching this cartoon 20 years ago when I was a kid. I thought the cartoon was very entertaining and was excited for the new villains with each new episode to pop out on Cartoon Network. but now after 20 years and as an adult, this cartoon is truly disturbing. how the hell was this even allowed to exist as a kid's show is beyond me.
I remember watching this episode and the thing bothering me the most is Courage being forced to eat the pancakes and Fred shaving him, razor going through the pancakes. Shit didnt sit well with kid me
I’ve always thought this episode was so creepy. But for me the part that stuck with me was the song that played while they showed Fred. I actually remember sleeping after watching this episode when I was a kid and I couldn’t stop thinking about the song all night. It was such a great episode.
I don't know about you guys but instead of getting scared and traumatized from courage episodes as a child instead I enjoyed them. You see courage episodes schedule in CN here in my country is 6-7 in the morning where I always wake up before going to school. I always feel sleepy after waking up so my mom decided to make me watch cartoons and guess what I enjoyed courage episodes and even help me remove the sleepiness. I don't know if I still dont understand adult humour but as a cartoon it entertained me maybe because its unique and different than the cartoons back then but as of now every episodes that I watch makes sense now that I'm an adult.
When I told my parents I was molested by a family friend many years later they denied it and pretended that it could never happen...I love my parents but they really let me down that day...
I watched this episode when I was a kid. And for some reason I wasn’t scared I thought that it was just weird. But looking back at it now. Yeah it pretty creepy and what makes it even worse is that there real people out there like Fred who used others for their sick twisted little activities. It scary and terrifying I feel bad for Courage he just want a normal life but nope weird shit keeps happening to him.
I can't help but laugh when I watch this episode now, becuz I have a client that I watch at my job(which is composed of group homes for mental/psychological disabilities) who is obsessed with wanting to get his haircut and always wants a barber, and if he doesn't have his way he tries to chase or beat people up, I can imagine him being the only person Fred turns down and ends up getting chased by him🤣🤣🤣
As always, love your videos, so full of inspiration, and especially this video. Dealing with past trauma and going through the healing process is extremely hard but this just reminded me to keep pushing forward, thank you for all the beautiful videos you create!
Him: I'm glad I didn't watch this episode as a kid Me someone who watched it and has been traumatized from the "la la, la la, la la, la": I've seen things you ain't seen before.
For me it was the most normal episode. Fred was the most normal villain, just a next-door psychopath. But already as a kid I thought that shaving innuendoes murdering.
Dude,you are amazing. You don't know how much that ending speech you made about traumatic experiences and dealing with them helped people. Instant subscriber,because man,I felt that.
Lol I watched this episode as a kid, but freaky Fred didn’t creep me out. Until the music started playing and he was shaving Courage. As a kid there was just something so haunting about that 😆
Hey man I know how it sucks and I am very grateful that I found your RUclips channel!! It really s helped me a lot of time and it showed me to tell myself at sometimes in our life it's OK of something you can't change yourself and accept it and strive for the greater then today . And man you make great videos keep making them I mean it , it really helps a lot !!
this show was more interesting than entertaining as a kid but smoking a joint n watching this show as an adult creeps u out now that u somehow can notice the narrative more better and its scary if they was to make these episodes into a horror movie that would almost seem realistic. this show is based off horror flicks btw but as an adult u can kinda imagine how terrifying it would be with acting. this is why courage the cowardly dog show stay one of my favorite shows till this day, it's so unique and mature but i wouldn't recommend my children to watch this until their old enough. still i give this show 5 out of 5*'s, especially freaky fred and his poem 👍
I remember watching this episode as a kid i never got scared of the whole episode but i got so scared of the music that started playing when fred was shaving courage and i was all alone watching that in the living room, i got so scared i left without turning the tv off and went to my grandma's house (my mom and my grandma's house are connected to each other) and stayed there for few seconds and went back to my house to see the episode finished.
When I was 4 or 5 I watched this episode. This character scared me when I was young. Until now I can still remember his face. I saw many kinds of villains but the only character I remember is Freaky Fred. Now I'm not not scared of him. Who designed him? The real designer is good at making scary villains.

He's a very good dog
Agreed
Same
sad that it's gone though
He is the definition of courage which is how he got his name.
No matter his fear. He faced whatever it was and made things right
In my opinion the most disturbing episode of this show is literally every single episode
Including the episode with the Duckling?
The first season had a lot of horror to it, but season 2 and especially season 3 they experimented and didn’t do that much horror episodes.
This show was the nightmare fuel of my childhood... And I still get the creeps watching it now
Lol when i was a kid i always enjoy this cartoon as a normal cartoon
Is better than the poppe show

But that is the point of cartoons and art... you dont really need this channel to get life lessons from them
Well to be fair, these cartoons are much deeper in meaning than you realise
I think what's most freaky about this episode is the Fred is a human and not a monster
👐🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃
and yet he is more scary
I thought most monsters are humans that Courage just imagines as monsters
The fact that this happens in real life is actually scary

I have to politely disagree. In terms of being SA'd, you do NOT have to forgive to heal. With time, I stopped feeling so angry at my abuser, but I never forgave him and never will. Because what he did is not OK, and he knew that. You don't have to decide that "nah, it's OK" because ultimately it doesn't affect your ability to move on.

get an ice cream, it helps

The reason why people don't share traumatic experiences with friends other than embarrassment is the baggage it holds. Think about it, you're unloading your baggage onto a friend who, most likely won't know what to do with said baggage or, you may not have any friends you can safely trust with that information because most of your friends are simply friends of convenience.
If you're trying to get over a traumatic experience, seek professional help if you can afford it. Trying to get through it on your own is possible but, past traumatic experiences can subconsciously hold you back in life until you get to the root cause and deal with it.

When you're old enough to drink take a shot every time he says naughty
To be honest I didn’t find this episode creepy as a little kid for me it was a normal cartoon episode
Now as almost 18 I realise how creepy this episode actually is
Watch freaky Fred reanimated, it is even more scary.
Bro Gooseworx did such a good job on that one scene, holy shit it was kinda creepy
@@crackasilly I really like awesome saurous and cutenikechan’s scenes :3
@@algebruhhhh how is that cringe tho-
It's really impressive tho
Muriel: What a lovely visit.
Tom the cat: Don't... you... believe it!...
I really don’t remember any other episode except this one, but for years all I remembered was
NAUUUUUGHTYYYYYY
I watched this episode (a long time ago) and almost DIED when Murial told Courage to the bathroom with Freaky Fred. That was years ago and now I don't even watch Netflix, but somehow seeing Freaky Fred again in this video reminded me lol.
I remember watching this episode at first i said "well he dosent look harmful" and then that bathroom scene made me say "ok put him in alcatraz"
There is no other episode
Like Freaky Fred
A sinister grin to
Fill your heart with dread
One would start to think
He was off his meds
For if he was, Fred became really...
NAAAAUUUGHTYYYYYY.
This episode is the scariest for me. Fred's behavior reminds me of my abusive father - he kept a nice facade, but once nobody was around, he would do horrible things
It amazes me how even the scariest and most disturbing episodes of Courage the Cowardly Dog have the most beuatifull messages. These episodes arent just nightmare fueled, but we as children could learn something from them back in the days.
Tbh when i was kid like 8 or 9 years old i loved watching Courage the dog and never got disturbed or scared no matter how disturbing it is , i just find it interesting xd
As a childhood these type of horror episodes were my nightmare but now I really miss these cartoons
To be real tho, fred’s got some talent if he can shave hair into cursive writing
There are ppl simping for him there are Wattpad storys "FreakyFredx Reader" and fanarts that are "naughty" idk
can’t blame them tho 😳
The Great Fusilli is the most disturbing to me. That episode really stuck to me as a kid and still remember to this day. Courage playing with his owners's corpses is so messed up holy shit
I watched most of courage the cowardly dog when I was little including this episode. It was the weirdest most awesome stuff and I remember all of it
This episode is definitely up there. Still remember seeing it once at night as a kid and just struggling to sleep for days.
Kavalli Kyorshiro ever watched windmill vandals??
Freaky" Fred, despite how creepy he is, it's strongly implied that he genuinely loves his aunt Muriel. And the feeling is mutual, as she's shown to dote on him despite his more...unpleasant, tendencies.
It also seems that he doesn't want to scare her, as shown by him not putting up a massive fight when the police come
Honestly, the story Fred told us about his girlfriend was very suspicious.... He referred to her as a "girl." Like was he dating a child at some point in his adulthood? I hope he was also a child when he "dated" poor Barbara.
I also want hope about that
I remember seeing this episode...it came alongside the evil mattress when it premiered. Yeah...It was a weird night.
The final words were very powerful and touching! Thank you for your thoughts & analysis, Christian!
I'm also grateful I never found this when I was little. I can already count the sleepless nights
I also love how you use the song of healing. It fits perfectly
The headshaving fetish is actually pretty common on RUclips and DeviantArt.
wtf
Why is it common on YT? Hair Cake... Beauty at it's finest
honestly I'm not even surprised Deviantart is full of weird shit
WHAT
Is this a rule 34 thing or are kinks just any and everythang
I remember watching this cartoon 20 years ago when I was a kid. I thought the cartoon was very entertaining and was excited for the new villains with each new episode to pop out on Cartoon Network.
but now after 20 years and as an adult, this cartoon is truly disturbing. how the hell was this even allowed to exist as a kid's show is beyond me.
I remember watching this episode and the thing bothering me the most is Courage being forced to eat the pancakes and Fred shaving him, razor going through the pancakes. Shit didnt sit well with kid me
Plot:
Insane guy with a hair fetish visits his aunts house and shaves dog
I’ve always thought this episode was so creepy. But for me the part that stuck with me was the song that played while they showed Fred. I actually remember sleeping after watching this episode when I was a kid and I couldn’t stop thinking about the song all night. It was such a great episode.
when i watched freaky fred my mom was terrified of me and why i was watching it. tho i did get a little spooked
As I'm growing older I just started to realise how much creepy those childhood cartoons were. 😱
Ngl this episode made me stop watching Courage as a kid. I was way too creeped out by Fred and he legit gave me nightmares.
He didn’t really scared me when I was a kid. I thought he was just being weird and had a weird way of trying to be nice.
I feel like the speech about trauma is most relevant with his trauma of losing his birth parents to the Evil Vet when he sent them to the moon
I don't know about you guys but instead of getting scared and traumatized from courage episodes as a child instead I enjoyed them. You see courage episodes schedule in CN here in my country is 6-7 in the morning where I always wake up before going to school. I always feel sleepy after waking up so my mom decided to make me watch cartoons and guess what I enjoyed courage episodes and even help me remove the sleepiness. I don't know if I still dont understand adult humour but as a cartoon it entertained me maybe because its unique and different than the cartoons back then but as of now every episodes that I watch makes sense now that I'm an adult.
I always thought that Fred was on Antidepressants, which is why he always smiles
Woah, that is a good examination.
You don’t know how many times my mom had to change her bed sheets after I would soil my breeches.
When I told my parents I was molested by a family friend many years later they denied it and pretended that it could never happen...I love my parents but they really let me down that day...
I watched this episode when I was a kid. And for some reason I wasn’t scared I thought that it was just weird. But looking back at it now. Yeah it pretty creepy and what makes it even worse is that there real people out there like Fred who used others for their sick twisted little activities. It scary and terrifying I feel bad for Courage he just want a normal life but nope weird shit keeps happening to him.
i watched that episode the other day. i woke up the other night and remembered how fred said "naughty" and i was laughing so much
I remember when I watched this episode as a kid I was so disturbed...
I can't help but laugh when I watch this episode now, becuz I have a client that I watch at my job(which is composed of group homes for mental/psychological disabilities) who is obsessed with wanting to get his haircut and always wants a barber, and if he doesn't have his way he tries to chase or beat people up, I can imagine him being the only person Fred turns down and ends up getting chased by him🤣🤣🤣
As always, love your videos, so full of inspiration, and especially this video. Dealing with past trauma and going through the healing process is extremely hard but this just reminded me to keep pushing forward, thank you for all the beautiful videos you create!
Him: I'm glad I didn't watch this episode as a kid
Me someone who watched it and has been traumatized from the "la la, la la, la la, la": I've seen things you ain't seen before.
Freaky Fred was the only character in the show to really scare me as a kid, in fact I'm still scared of him
For me it was the most normal episode. Fred was the most normal villain, just a next-door psychopath. But already as a kid I thought that shaving innuendoes murdering.
Dude,you are amazing. You don't know how much that ending speech you made about traumatic experiences and dealing with them helped people. Instant subscriber,because man,I felt that.
Lmao courage is so terrified of getting his fur shaved he wouldn't even be scary to me lol
I never got nightmares from watching courage the cowardly dog but that episode was the only episode that truly horrified me when I was a kid
Freaky Fred is one of the few reasons to why I keep my lights on at *night*
Chianos The Inevitable ever watched windmill vandals??
Fred didn't shove Courage in the toilet, courage was hiding in it
One of the best episode especially Fred's "NAUGHTY" was superb !
I love the idea that you added the true lab undertale theme
I remember seeing this episode And sleeping like a child...
When i was kid..
love how you showed clips of 13 reasons why when talking about traumatic experiences.
Lol I watched this episode as a kid, but freaky Fred didn’t creep me out. Until the music started playing and he was shaving Courage. As a kid there was just something so haunting about that 😆
Hey man I know how it sucks and I am very grateful that I found your RUclips channel!! It really s helped me a lot of time and it showed me to tell myself at sometimes in our life it's OK of something you can't change yourself and accept it and strive for the greater then today .
And man you make great videos keep making them I mean it , it really helps a lot !!
I had nightmares about every episode of this show, but it was also one of my favorites
You scared the crap out of me with the beginning and I watched this already months ago and I'm glad I didn't see this when I was younger too
The creepy music still gives me chills
This guest episode disturbed me the most back then when I was little, still gives the creepy feeling
this show was more interesting than entertaining as a kid but smoking a joint n watching this show as an adult creeps u out now that u somehow can notice the narrative more better and its scary if they was to make these episodes into a horror movie that would almost seem realistic. this show is based off horror flicks btw but as an adult u can kinda imagine how terrifying it would be with acting. this is why courage the cowardly dog show stay one of my favorite shows till this day, it's so unique and mature but i wouldn't recommend my children to watch this until their old enough. still i give this show 5 out of 5*'s, especially freaky fred and his poem 👍
I remember watching this episode as a kid i never got scared of the whole episode but i got so scared of the music that started playing when fred was shaving courage and i was all alone watching that in the living room, i got so scared i left without turning the tv off and went to my grandma's house (my mom and my grandma's house are connected to each other) and stayed there for few seconds and went back to my house to see the episode finished.
That scene in the 1st few second would have been enough to tramatize me as a kid.
When I was 4 or 5 I watched this episode. This character scared me when I was young. Until now I can still remember his face. I saw many kinds of villains but the only character I remember is Freaky Fred. Now I'm not not scared of him. Who designed him? The real designer is good at making scary villains.
This was the episode that gave me PTSD, and the only episode i remember because it was VERY scary
