Happy Tree Friends: Still Alive
- "Fear not, true believers! Happy Tree Friends is back and very much Still Alive!!!"
- — Official website
Happy Tree Friends: Still Alive is an episode collection from Happy Tree Friends. It contains five episodes, which are "Going Out with a Bang", "A Handy Nanny", "An Inconvenient Tooth", "Just Be Claus", and "In Over Your Hedge". Still Alive was teased on October 28, 2016[1], more than two years since "Dream Job", the final episode of Season 4, was released. The pack had a dedicated website where visitors could watch the trailer, read through the FAQs, or make a purchase. According to the website, this decision was made due to the show's lack of budget[2].
Prior to the pack's full release, visitors to the Still Alive website were able to pre-order the pack for $4.99, which was then raised to $6.99[3] after release before it was lowered to $5.99. It contains the five episodes, five background design videos, five original episode storyboards, an animation process video, and a writer's session video. It also features a short called "Blood Donor" which thanks the buyer by name. The episodes themselves would be gradually released on the official Mondo website and YouTube for free, with a different release order, so the order is "An Inconvenient Tooth", "Going Out with a Bang", "Just Be Claus", "A Handy Nanny", and "In Over Your Hedge", though on YouTube, "A Handy Nanny" was released last instead of "In Over Your Hedge". The extras were never officially released to the public, with the exception of the "Blood Donor" short and the writer's session video, the latter of which is exclusive to the official Mondo website.
List of episodes[edit]
Episodes contained in the Still Alive pack are officially not considered to be part of any numbered season despite having episode numbers on the titles on the official Mondo website. They are also distinguished from Seasons 3 post-"Wrath of Con" and 4 by having the show's title card consist of a dark green cover with spinning light green flowers, the Happy Tree Friends logo in a yellow and purple flower, and the words "Still Alive" beside it. The credits background is also dark green and does not have the Mondo Media logo behind the book at the top.

The reason we haven't been able to make new episodes in a while is because there has been no budget for it. We all love the show and have been trying to think of new ways to make more episodes. Our hope is that those of you who have a few extra dollars to spare can kick in to help us pay for the show so, we can parlay that into even more episodes after this batch. So on and so fourth.
