Premise
Happy Tree Crossovers centers on the lives of happy people. It intentionally tricks parents and teachers into thinking it's a show for kids who want to put a show children can watch. Each episode normally starts out with the characters living their lives normally, but a sudden event unintentionally (sometimes intentionally) caused by another person leads to many of the characters being subjected to very extreme and cruel graphic violence deaths. Each character suffers brutal pain, murder or mutilation by the end of each episode, but always return alive and well by the next.

Early concept
There were some posters made from January 2003 to September 2004 during the plans, hinting the vast changes between the pilot and these posters, to the finished concept on air today.
