Freaky Fred Reanimated!

120+ Animators come together to re-animate a classic Courage the Cowardly Dog Episode; Freaky Fred.
This is a tribute and labor of love to one of the greatest cartoons made during the early 2000's.
Courage the Cowardly Dog stood out a lot to me growing up. There wasn't a show like it, nor has there been one since.
A one of a kind creepy, yet goofy, kids show that isn't afraid to disturb the heck out of you, yet give you plenty of laughs along the way.
Thank you, John R. Dilworth, for giving us such a wonderful show.
Please enjoy everyone's hard work!
- Joshua 'Zeurel' Palmer

If you're an animator and would like to try out for the next reanimated I host, follow us on twitter and twitch to have a chance to jump on! The next one I'll be hosting will be announced sometime in December!

[@gudik1525]

Why did you say this?

[@monkeyscientist9913]

Gotta love how Fred in rhyme in his head, while speaking in short burst sentences or single words in the "real world". He's like one of those unhinged people in real-life who just seem socially awkward, but are hiding their darker tendencies and nature from the world. That's some surprisingly grounded writing for a show about a pink cartoon dog screaming at monsters.

[@stardusth2o]

The scariest part about Fred is that he represents the way that so many children have their own personal boundaries and even their physical wellbeing disregarded and are forced to deal with adults who have foul intentions just because they’re family or close friends.

[@darinlunderman8063]

...and the dynamic of how Fred is viewed & treated by family/friends just because he is one of them. Muriel seems blissfully unaware of what is going on between Courage & Fred, representative of how some people close to a victim do not notice how predatory individuals are taking advantage of their loved one. And in Eustace's case, he knows that Fred is a weirdo and probably shouldn't be around Courage...but he doesn't care, representative to how some people close to a victim are apathetic jerks to their loved one. The two orderlies from the madhouse represent the system coming to take away the creep, Fred, when the situation is finally brought to their attention. However, that is only a solution when it is properly reported on a case-by-case basis. There are many 'Freds' in the world, and they aren't reported on enough because too many family & friends seem to have a particular perception or attitude of what is going on. It's funny how a kids cartoon can make us think.

[@marquistf1996]

Very much this. And I felt this way even as a child when I watched this. You summed it up perfectly

[@bonbonsucree6670]

This is a wonderful plot episode and executed wonderfully. Abuse (particularly towards children) unfortunately goes unnoticed because family and friends "cover" it up and brush it off... Really big W for bringing this subject up in a children cartoon

[@aneldritchfrogman1966]

Extremely Violently Violet PLUMS Whats funnier is that I think that’s the point, Fred isn’t a awful person at all. He just has a mental discorded that makes him want to cut hair and gets satisfaction. He was never mean to any of the characters or even courage, he just couldn’t help himself so he had to limit himself at the tail

[@-Imtryingatleast]

The reason why Fred is so creepy despite the fact that he is one of the most "innocent" antagonist is because this episode can be interpreted in really different ways, especially because of the word "naughty" and the way he describes his obsession with hair You can't trust him because everything about him reminds to a r@pist, the scene in the bathroom, the word "naugthy", his storys, even if at the end is not supposed to be an analogy of that, they nailed the creep behavior with him, making him scary or uncomfortable for people

[@jailbirdsjailhouse852]

@@BitterSweet5950l I'm aware of that people shouldn't be ashamed of their kinks but I'm talking about how Fred's obsession gone too far that it started to affect his mental health and people around him.

[@chloerogers8841]

I think that the scariest part of this episode is the fact that this might've happened IRL. Think about it, all the other bad guys are aliens, demons, cannibals but Fred's a guy with a hair fetish

[@YourLocalPoshBoy]

Ehh I don’t think it’s a hair fetish. It’s called Trichotemnomania, it’s an obsession of cutting/shaving peoples hair to the point of baldness. I think it’s like an obsessive-compulsive habit, Causes of trichotillomania is said to be a way of dealing with stress or anxiety. a chemical imbalance in the brain, similar to obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD) changes in hormone levels during puberty.

[@ly.fkitweball]

this episode was made to simulate a pedophile, so yeah, it fits

Fred is freaky, but it isn't fair to call him evil. He just has a compulsion when it comes to cutting other people's hair. Once he starts, he can't stop himself.

I had never realised that this episode highlighted pedophilia. The fear/creepiness courage feels from Fred is exactly how a kid would feel in the presence of a molester. Muriel sitting outside the closed door is a repredentation of adults ignoring red flags by relatives/friends who in most cases indulge in such activities. Children who have faced abuse keep on figthing with it till adulthood. The trauma is too complex for a simple mind to process.

[@Mikescool444]

​@@torterra1826it’s not a fetish, it’s a crime. Pedo rape children, what can be worst seriously ....

[@Johnaaaathyn]

To be completely honest the word p***philia triggers me, perhaps because I've seen the effects of it firsthand. I mean Courage definitely gets assaulted in this episode, but I really don't think it's supposed to be taken that seriously. For one, Fred doesn't limit his fits of mania to children. It seems to just be implied that whether you're a person or an animal, even Fred's own pet, nobody is safe from his shears. Courage, Muriel, and Eustace act the same way as they do in every other episode. There's nothing particularly menacing about Muriel or Eustace in this episode. Eustace would have slammed the door on Courage even if Courage had walked in the bathroom alone, let's be honest. I also think the mark left on Courage at the end, "With Love, Fred," is just a last laugh from a goofy villain, but I suppose you could see it as mirroring the permanent scars of real life trauma. I don't buy it though. But of course you're free to see it how you want as well, that's the great thing about art. I just feel like I had to defend my own thoughts on the episode after reading such a crude theory.
