we made it to the end 🎉 hope y’all enjoy 💙
Loved it! Nice to be here Matt!
Yay
Yes
This almost looks like social commentary. How the smart is either forced to be dumbed down or control those who they consider beneath them.
That's what I got out of this one. Well, off to listen to some music.
You should react to film theory explaining this cuz you might need to do it to understand what was actually going on
Oh and i forgot to mention....brace yourself.
God, Lesley's "because it's so FUNNY!!!!" and "YOU'RE NOT MY REAL SON!" startled me so much the first time I watch the episode!
the entirety of lesleys scene i watched the first time holding my breath, too terrified to even move. i loved it
I find Lesley screaming “FUNNY” ironically very funny itself
But you aren’t my real son…
Here we go, what I consider to be the most disturbing episode of the series. And for good reason too. Having a full on HUMAN appear in a world of puppets is just beyond uncanny
ong lmao was struggling
@@MathewMcKenna And yes you were right, someone DID get electrocuted!
Then Sesame Street be over there like..
It's weird enough that an actual human showed up in the show, but she's also patched up like some kind of doll or something. So creepy!
@@charlesroberts-moses6074 See I was fine with humans in Sesame Street because they didn't look like maniacs about to tear my limbs off like this woman is.
“Something shreddable” is such a good ending for this series, and the camera work really helps make you feel hollow as the book is ripped to pieces.
The reason we focus on that staircase as hard as we do when Yellow Guy first gets batteries is to show that the camera doesn't restrict his view anymore. He has his own view point.
This whole time, that staircase was there... but through the entire first season they don't see it because that's where the camera's PoV is.
[Spoiler]
That's why in the final moments the camera just pans... and pans... no staircase, just the view of the original camera. The answers stuck out of view, out of reach.
A year late, and I don't know if this was just a throw away joke, but it seems that Red Guy and Duck were able to break free of the restricted camera view as well, with the lights off. They were able to find the bathroom (which again, could have been a throw away joke), but it's interesting to think that maybe they could have found the stairs too, if they kept searching
I love how there's no real ending to this series, they're so close to figuring everything out and then it's just ripped away and we get to know that the characters are still stuck in that nightmarish loop
The only time red guy shows emotion is when he is finally escaping and it’s so sad
Also the paintings on the wall imply that he had gone up the stairs before so they are stuck a loop and it’s so sad 😢
Well it's only season 1
ITS TIMEEEE
as soon as i saw this i was like”oh he is gonna hate this one”
1:13 yellow guy spoiled the entire episode
10:47 if u look closely ducks face is on the pot
15:46 fluffybird momment
Fluffy bird
Couple moment
Maybe Stain Edwards is the urn ashes? But I also suspect that Stain Edwards is the experiment.
@@guns102 ; They are indeed both, there were multiple red guys and ducks, why wouldn’t there be multiple Stain Edwards?
You ever think about how yellow guy spoiling the episode implies he has been upstairs before and only has a vague memory of it? And he just keeps doing the same thing over and over
Poor guy doesn't even realize the experiment is probably Stain the Forever Boy
I NEVER EVEN THOUGHT OF THAT
OH NO.
NOOOOO STAIN
NOOO STAIN EDWARDS THE FOREVER BOI-
Little interesting thing worth noting: Just before the scene where Yellow Guy accidentally decapitated the figure of Duck Guy while putting it on the house, we can see a dead headless Duck Guy while the other 2 are wondering in the darkness.
Fun fact: at 8:32 you can hear red guy and duck talking about Stain Edwards the forever boy, and how they're doing experiments on him, so the thing at 11:36 is stain Edwards
wait, would that them confirm that the duck killed in ep2 was stain edwards??
@@waddledeedeee i guess so
@@CoolCactus405 :(
@@waddledeedeee well he's still alive (even if he is getting tortured)
@@CoolCactus405 everybody's been shown to have backups that replace the originals. Stain Edwards is kind of like what they all are before they become their characters. He's a symbol of them having backups.
The actual nightmare they're all going through is the process of machine learning. The one backup that actually makes a good decision is kept while the all the other ones are killed. That's why dying is seen as good. When one of them dies that represents General progress. The bad decision has been pruned, and the new duplicates are going to have slightly better chances of doing the right thing.
The reason this works so well is because it's modeled after evolution. However, evolution is blind. It can produce some wonderful results, but it can also create the giraffe, which has an incredibly long aortic problem.
So while it can seem like they're not progressing, they shredded the knowledge of leslie, it's a process of evolution. This will result in a fitter scenario, letting them live longer.
After all, if your entire life is an educational video, don't you fear someone who's already educated?
Yellow guy's answer to the crossword puzzle was a description of their house, and was also his dream monologue at the beginning of the last episode when the theme song went dark: big ones above them, and then even bigger ones (and a lumpy one, which is Stain the Forever Boy being eternally punished for murdering duck guy) and on top of that smaller ones (the doll house, which curiously is also inside of his ear canal in the Friendship episode along with clues that he's battery operated).
This explains the framed pictures of him ascending the staircase, because he has clearly done it before. The symbols on the cover of the book are the same characters he drew in the "spatial distribution" puzzle he showed red guy, so he would have understood the book, and may have seen it before. One of the symbols (a clue) is duck's name, because we also see it on the computer keyboard in the Friendship episode.
1:11 Noticed how Yellow Guy already knew that the room above had the Big Boys, and the one above that had the Bigger Boys, and the one above that had a miniature version of their house. That explains why there are pictures of him going up the stairs and opening the door, because he's done it before.
We need a new thing to keep traumatizing him... Has he seen salad fingers?
i like rusty spoons
@@MathewMcKenna I’m gonna take that as a yes
@@MathewMcKenna I recommend 'Shadowstone Park' if you have not already seen it. It is by the same channel that made Charlie the Unicorn and Llamas with hats. It is not as talked about as the other two series but i think it is really interesting and deserves more attention. Its not that scaring but it is pretty existential.
@@4wingedowl I love Shadowstone Park! Definitely hoping Mathew checks it out.
@@MathewMcKenna I've seen a rusty spoon. They look gross.
"You're just puttin the plates in the bin-"
"noe"
"yeh"
😭😭😭👏👏❤
the whole wholesome bit with red guy and duck caught me so off guard when I watched it LMAO i was genuinely like 'are they forming a gay relationship in the middle of this wtf is going on rn' i was so confused
Duck is the dad, but red guy might be a girl with long hair
@@arthurjeremypearson or
They’re both guys
Gay people exist arthur jeremy pearson
But duck being the dad makes sense yes
@@arthurjeremypearsongay people exist bro its okay 😂
@@arthurjeremypearsonWere you on drugs?
I truly believe Yellow Guy is the main character for learning more about where they are. Red Guy is the main character for trying to escape wherever hey are. Duck, I think was placed there to keep the two of them stuck in whatever hellscape Red and Yellow are in.
Explains why he has no connection to anything in the lore. Not being sponsored by Roy or being his son
@@plaidhatter1674 Ya and they showed how easy it would be to just create a new Duck. I'm pretty sure the real duck died, but they were such perfect replikas that nobody would be able to tell Duck isn't the first Duck.
The first half of this episode is freaking hilarious. The second half is a slow descent into something halfway between an existential crisis and nightmare fuel (although strangely wholesome at that one part)
This is definitely one of my favorite episodes from the new show
The extra sad level to it is that at the beginning yellow guy already says everything that's about to happen. Meaning it has likely all happened before.
I love how you just LITERALLY predicted everything in this video !
“It’s when you can’t remember that over the top of you there’s bigger ones, that are bigger and bigger, and the Over the top of it there’s smaller of all of it at the top of that” big boys room, and bigger boys room, and the dolls in Leslie’s room
This is definitely a show where just watching an average day or even them being stuck somewhere would be entertaining as hell
Speaking of that, umm… I don’t think you’ll every watch Panty and Stocking With Garterbelt
@@hdanimatesorsomething I'd want him to watch other anime before PSG
What an episode to end the first season on... In retrospect, there ended up being a lot of hints at where the series was going, not to mention a lot of call-backs to previous episodes, particularly once we reach Lesley. As for Lesley herself, hoo boy there's a lot to unpack with her. She's one big mystery with this series, and makes me wonder if she was an unseen presence in the original TH-cam series, since this episode seems to kill off all the previous "teachers", including the ones from the TH-cam series. It's clear that they're seeing things up for more mysteries and questions to be answered should this get renewed for a second season (which I hope it does, there's a lot of talent going into this show). I think what I like most about this episode, though, is when the Yellow Guy becomes intelligent, because once he does he reacts to everything how basically the audience would react to it. Granted, he's used to all of this so he doesn't freak out or anything, but he does begin to question why all of it is happening and wants answers as much as the audience does. Really makes me feel bad when he becomes dumb again by the end, and not just because he shreds the book that might be the key to everything. Electracey (that robot thing) is also probably the nicest of the teachers we've met, nothing but helpful and friendly, and for that she gets her batteries ripped out and replaced with Yellow Guy's nasty once and acts drunk for the rest of the episode. At least she survives by the end, unlike the other teachers.
Lil useless theory, the wires in the "pet animal" are because Lesley (or whoever it was) used it as a test before giving Yellow Guy batteries.
Hey Mat, thanks for getting me back into dhmis! I wasn't in a rush to get back into the series that came out on TV, idk why, maybe laziness. But when you reacted to all the episodes I knew I had to watch myself, and I've had a lot of the same reactions as you so thank you! It's been a wild ride, your reactions are awesome as always!
Love watching your reaction to creepy stuff! It always makes me laugh.
What about my shredder is my ringtone, so while watching this I thought someone was calling me
the bigger ones above, and above that, and a biggest one, and then a smaller one (he was describing this Simulation, Nightmare coma, actual Hell, whatever it is house), if you look at the house you see the levels, he made it to the attic, but above the attic would be above the house...they drove out of the range of the puppet land, but not...above it, where the creator would be...the puppeteer.
i’ve been waiting for this i cant wait to see your reaction! 😊
4:37 " are they all just gonna be *shredding* "
bro ur like uncovering the lore of this just off feelings.
It really holds its name's reputation... I feel like I've been beaten down and now I wanna cry and not be touched
Fun fact: the bigger boy’s experiment is Stain Edwards the Foreverboy from episode 2, death.
This is just the season 1 finale... I can't wait to see season 2.
any idea when season 2's coming?
Yaaaaaay yayayay finally
This one is a real game changer, so happy we finally get your reaction to it
*also it gives us the wonderful shredder song...*
Oh I just realised after watching this show so many times. The experiment is probably stain edwards. Guess he didn't die after all.
Hey Mat, I know you probably won’t see this but if you like dark comedy/horror shows like this then I highly recommend a British TV show called ‘Inside No.9’ it’s REALLY great 👍
the original youtube series will make you slowly mentally waste away from the rising tension that it constantly creates. the tv series, on the other hand, burns it straight into you BRAIN by picking the perfect times to interrupt you and subdue you.
15:46 I KNOW WHAT YOU ARE
I hope it isn't too long untill new episodes are released. I WANT TO KNOW WHAT HAPPENS NEXT!!! 😭
i honestly keep on forgetting about the hamster part in electraceys song and im always eating when rewatching this episode, someone scold me already
*Stop eating when rewatching this episode*
How'd I do?
Finally!! I've been refreshing this channel every hour for the last 5 days waiting for this video!!!
So... are reactions to the Film Theory videos about what the heck the show means next in line?~
RemGames theorized are amazing too. They made a coloration too
"We've been waiting for you" means that he's been there before.
1:13 Yellow Guy is talking about the rooms and he doesn’t even know, he went into the bigger boys room, then the even bigger boys room then the small toy version of their house in Lesley’s room
Remember the “ones”. “Bigger ones above the other ones.”
Also did you notice that the intro to the last episode directly tells you what’s gunna happen this episode?
I have been waiting for this, this is my favorite episode
You HAVE to make a reaction video of film theory’s video of this
But they do want the best for him. Every time one of his backups dies, it's a backup that was making a bad decision. Now they can make a new set of backups based off of the one that made a good decision.
That's machine learning. That's how machine learning works. It makes a whole bunch of variations of the same "attempt at an intelligent process" and kills them all off except for the one that makes a good decision.
We are witnessing an artificial intelligence going through the thought processes of trying to figure out the best way to choose between breakfast cereals.
the best episode in both series dude god i love the existentialism
they have announced a season 2 btw or season 3 depending on how you look at it.
i was legit just thinking of this... maybe the lady controlling all this had a son that looked like yellow guy and gave him (the son) a doll (yellow guy) but then the son died due to a car accident because in the last episode the narrator for the little town sounds like the lady and then she was honestly super horrified to yellow guy getting hit by a car??? no idea... just thought of it randomly when watching the last episode
I HAVENT WATCHED IT YET BUT IM SO EXCITED
"What the hell is going on?" The best song in the show, that's what
not every side character is dead. roy is lying there, but he's still alive.
The finale!
man love the reactions hope the new season comes soon so you could watch it :)
I've been checking your channel to see if you reacted to the 6th episode everyday since you uploaded your reaction to the 5th episode lol
Amazing how much the previous episode foreshadowed the finale
WOAH 40 minutes ago? I love your content and check it out every time you upload. Thanks for putting yourself through this lol
THIS VIDEO WAS HILARIOUS!! I think you really should react to Ride the Cyclone, it such a good musical!!
YES
You know, this episode is kinda weird. But glad that you're done with the series. But can you react to Fnaf songs again?
Matt (game theory) has done some theories about DHMIS, you should watch them.
not asking for the usual today, hope you had a nice christmas
That "No... Yeah..." is the best thing ever.
I was rushing to finish the video I was just watching 🤣 I was excited
If you want to know what the heck actually happened. Remgames had delved in deep in the theories. To the point of being invited to Game Theories. He had six episode of them, so go check it out.
I so hope we get a season 3 or 2 (if you consider the TH-cam one season 1) this story has me so hooked and I hope they eventually figure what is really going on. Also the lore of this series is so sad.
Amazing world of gumball is getting a new season!
13:26 The most normal British woman
Yes I’ve been waiting for this!!
i swear you literally predicted everything in this episode
9:50
Because they're big boys.
Try and keep up mate.
you should watch the game theory on this, it may just be a theory but it makes alot of sense
film theory*
hey matt, i have two things to say!
one, this video was great and i can’t wIt to see more and
two, could you do a video about reacting to splatoon music? i know this is probably not the place to ask but i think it’d be really cool to see!
if you do this video, i have some suggestions if that’s okay :
Clickbait
Splattack
Candy Coated Rocks
Anarchy Rainbow
Spicy Calamari Inkantation
Bomb Rush Blush/Tide Goes Out
Fly Octo Fly + Ebb and Flow
Thanks for reading this if you do see this!
Hi Mat, I don’t know if you’ve seen or heard of the Dream SMP before, but there’s an animator known as Half Draws who did an animatic called Vantage that I think is worth your time to review.
maybe we are at the top of the stairs, i mean we know it goes further then just the lady and we do have acces to the lower stages 🤷♂
Next we get Matthew to watch Analog horror
They experiment on pink clay who became Duck
Yes, we have reached the last episode!!
Please check out The Amazing World of Gumball episode called ‘The Shippening.’ It’s basically the creators of the show calling out their fans in the most hilarious way.
Would you ever consider watching the theories that are coming from this series, even if it's not a reaction but for your own curiosity on your own time?
I've had a theory for awhile now thay there's only been one season because you're SUPPOSED to watch the same episodes over and over again, since it's been obvious that David has done this before and no matter how many times he's tried he keeps going back to his normal gullible self.. the cycle repeating.
If you haven't already, I recommend listening to the Spooky Month soundtrack by MasterSwordRemix. Some songs I highly recommend are "Compliments To the Chef", "Scary Swings", and "Friendly Nightmares".
You: when I go soul searching, I dont come across people torturing small animals.
Me: you arent searching hard enough XD
if he thought episode 5 was meta i’m exited to see what he thinks about episode 6
This was episode 12, he's already reacted to 6
@@Ashurman666 They're reffering to the new show. In the new show this is episode 6, even if it's the "overall" 12th episode of DHMIS.
Next video is watching the Game Theories of DHMIS calling it now
we did it!!
Absolutely adored the reactions for this series also…. Maybe the reason Yellow guy doesn’t shred his guitar with the others is because he shreds the book at the end? 🤔
14:28 "I'm not having a good 'TIME' right now."
Well apparently it's not just you Matt
Time itself is not having either.
That was "on time".
Okay I'll stop
no, keep going
Ya gotta react to Remgames theories now!
watch his first film and the latest one You're growing up fast champ 🏆
you should listen to the zelda breath of the wild soundtrack ljke my personal favourites, revalis song, sidons song and the main title/trailer theme. also the slight lore behind the champions songs a.k.a the s.o.s signals in the music. really good songs and some can actual bring quite a bit emotion. :]
loved this series and your reactions!! could you react to the walten files next?
This is my fav episode
BROOO YOU NEED TO WATCH THE SEASONS OF INFINITY TRAIN
I love electracy best teacher
God bless!
When he said "I feel like someone is gonna get electrocuted" Ohhh when I thought of Yellow guy-
yellow guy's batteries hurt me in my feelings
16:20 Wow, that’s really something to mull over isn’t it?
