The Hopeless Reality of ONE 

I’m glad you enjoyed it 😊

Wow, this was a really well-made video analyzing not just ONE, but object shows in general. Nice job T3rror! -Cary

Stone knew this would all happen, yet still lead Liam to this path. In my mind that means after all is done, and credits roll. There is a good ending

“The premise alone sounds like someone describing a drug trip: So then the leave stole the island from the fire, and everyone chased her, so she jumped into a map and went to a place with berries that turn you into metal…How did we get here?” This is the best thing I’ve heard all day.

I love ONE, it's feels like what i've always wanted, a group of people that placed in nowhere but act like how people would actually react, their reaction is so realistic

FUN FACT: in the last episode of s1, if you play the radiohead song "Scatterbrain" right when the play button appears, the music and the animation sync up perfectly.

I heard you using ONE soundtrack in an earlier video, never expected it to FORESHADOW this video. Truly the moment ever.

When I first watched One it felt like when you get older. You can't have all this dopamine filled content you had when you were younger, but instead just need something that changes with you. That's what One is, it's the older grown up version of other object shows like BFDI. You can't just sit watching crap all day anymore and have to face reality.

The concept of object shows in general is pretty fascinating to me. Something about them always had charm

It always bothers me when people suggest ONE as a starting place for those who want to get into object shows, since this video proves it's integral to have an established understanding of the typical format in order to fully take away the commentary, but at the same time, it makes me really happy that such a beautifully made show has been the introduction to the community for so many people and got them interested in checking out the material that inspired it. You did an excellent job covering the series here, wasn't ever expecting the coverage of an object show from T3rr0r but it's very very welcome!! (also thanks for the quick nod to my show BFPOR at the beginning that caught me off guard LOL)

I got really sick one week and watched the whole series in ~one~ sitting. It really left an impact on me, and I’m not even very well versed in object shows to begin with, but I love the idea of objects being human-like and having lives and personalities. A big thing I love about One is that Airy is such an interesting antagonist, seemingly having no malicious intent yet torturing so many people without even noticing their pain. I was dissatisfied by the ending, but realized the series left such a big impact on me because the ending was so bleak and unresolved. I’m glad people are still discussing how great it is!

Watching this again, its genuinely so fun

Another part of ONE I love is how when Bryce is back in the real world, he just... kind of acts like a normal person (if a bit traumatized). He has a minimum wage fast-food job, and lives in a normal apartment. Nothing too out-of-the-ordinary, just... Bryce.

I never expected you to make a video on ONE, or any other object show in general but i'm so pleasantly surprised

I never see ONE brought up by channels not centred around object shows, thank you so much for bringing attention to this show that might’ve not been given otherwise

9:10 something i always loved about stone is that his ASL is accurate, and since ASL was my first language, having a literal show about objects with this much representation of personality is amazing, especially since cheesy probably tried his best to make stone accurate to real ASL. edit: CONGRATS ON BEING NOTICED BY JACKNJELLIFY

Having the big bad die in a freak accident is both funny and unique imo.

This video was an entire jumpscare. The object show community is really awesome and very silly, and it’s a really cool fandom to be in!

You only need to watch ONE once to love it. It’s amazing, and will always be one of, if not my favorite object show.

I have watched ONE ever since the first episode and I'm glad it's getting the recognition it deserves.

Well, I can confirm that the OSC is spreading through RU-vid at an alarming rate.

i like the 17 episode buildup for liam to start gaming in a cave

i love how airy isnt some big bad villain thats trying actively to hurt them, hes just kinda a guy playing sims irl

31:53 I think I've seen a lot of other unique object shows that distances itself away from the traditional object show format, and one in particular that I would really like and would like to bring your attention to is a object show named "LOVE OF THE S*N" created by Maules! (also, unlike help hotline, it's an actual object show and not just a JacknJellify inspired show) Love of the S*n's premise is about a charger block exploring a universe in which exists solely for the purpose of being a sort of waiting room (like the one in HFJONE) in between the deaths and revival of various object characters from various different dimensions across the universe (called the s*n) after he died. Although there are only one episode of LOTS at the moment (along with a few extra videos), the story so far (and characters) are very interesting and sets up an adventure that could, in my opinion, could even stand up as a cartoon show alone, with no affiliates to an object show as it is very distant from the traditional object show formula, with only two things in particular that link to it. A common aspect in various object shows is the insignificance of death. In the standard, more common object shows like as BFDI or Inanimate Insanity, death isn't really that looked upon since the hosts of each object show can just revive the characters at any time. This show takes that idea and asks, "what happens to the characters after they die before they get revived?" and explores a really fun and interesting idea. In this show, after someone has died in their universe, they get taken to a place called the s*n. It is a huge building with multiple rooms assigned to many object characters from across countless universes, these rooms being where the characters go to after death. Each room has an operator, a person who monitors said assigned character's life and also being a sort of guardian after they die, being present in their respective rooms looking after them whilst waiting for them to be recovered in their respective universes. After they have been recovered, they lose their memories of the s*n in order to prevent t he recovered patients from informing other people about it and causing panic. The show starts off with a character named Charger Block waking up in his assigned room in the s*n after he had died. In there, he meets his operator named Michael. They presents themselves as a normal pinwheel object character, but obviously, Michael isn't a normal object character so they deflecting a question regarding their name. After being dead for longer than usual, Michael informs Charger Block about the s*n, and have Charger Block explore the s*n to look for his friend (who died with him), Crown. Despite having only one episode so far, in my opinion, Love of the S*n is a really great and well animated object show that also distances itself from the traditional gameshow formula like ONE and Help Hotline, while at the same time keeping the spirit of object shows intact throughout the show (so far at least). The characters are well written as well, with a lot of good and interesting relationship between characters. It also explores the idea of secrets in the universe that are not present in the actual show (which allows for some creative theories and such regarding the show).

I’m so glad this show is getting the love it deserves

Nobody expected that he is gonna make a object show community video Mmmmmmmmmmm 1k likes and 69 comments real

I love how BFC and ONE work in conjunction as a parody and subvertion BFC is a message about how object shows often copy each other even if on accident because they all try to make the reality show genre with objects Meanwhile ONE is a message about what you can make something unique if you put your mind into itbe it a subversion of the genre or even changing the genre of the object show, ONE goes from the usual reality show to an existentialist Sci-fi mystery series about 3 people wanting to save others

21:34 ANNOYING ORANGE COUNTER SPOTTED

Dude I remember the day ONE 1 got uploaded. I thought it was a joke, that a second episode would never be made. I thought it was funny, but never imagined it would get this far. Great video, great show!

It’s amazing to have such deep emotion from an object show. And congrats to CheesyHJG for releasing 100K since he did. And yes, this show is more than just an object show

ONE is the representation of loneliness and solitarily, and what being alone for too long can do to people. Being severed from reality for too long can break a persons mind. Some disorders from being alone and isolated can make you forget about socializing, forget about empathy and emotion. You may act disorderly. You may act like nothing matters. You forget about what it was like before, what it was like to live and talk to other people. You do things that only someone crazy would do, and you forget that your actions have consequences. You forget about the value of socialization, with Airy being a perfect example of this. (and maybe Leafy from BFDI, she was stuck in Yoyleland for quite a few years..) The thing is, with ONE, still being an object show, there isn't a complete start, and no exact end. You, the viewer, get to choose what happens to the characters. ONE, after episode 18, ended. There is not a episode 19. We have no idea what is happening, where the characters are, or if someone has gone insane and has KILLED someone or something. We choose the outcome. We choose what happens. We had no impact on the actual show, but we can let our imagination take over when its all done. What if Liam killed everyone and got them into the purgatory? What if Liam made his own show and took over Airy's place? You choose. Of course, the ending may be what happens whenever a regular object show creator abandons their show. Beloved characters or not, we don't know why its over. Some cancelled shows just don't have an ending. We can't do anything about it, but try to use our own brains to continue it, or find out why it ended. Being connected to one place for too long can sever your perspective between reality and non-reality really badly. Like how Liam called Bryce "Soda Bottle". What's normal to you may be completely insane to someone else. Maybe they're crazy and you're normal, or maybe the opposite. You could become a regular person to someone who kills people for entertainment, just by being lonely. Oh, yeah, and its also how to add a fun little twist to your object show! :D (Now go hug yourself. NOW.)

idk if this is a hot take, but i do kinda wish the show ended on a "glimmer of hope" scenario. something like liam finally getting something to work on the computer, even if it's not what he needs, he learns something.

NEVER in my life have i Thought i would see Terror review a Object show. Ive been watching you for 3-ish years now? and you never cease to amaze me!

The legend. The guy. The T3rr0r of the internet. He's talking about ONE. A blessing to the OSC.

Just so you know, BFDIA 6 was made this year. After BFDIA 5e released, jacknjellify’s AdSense account got terminated for a few days, making them have to cancel the season (at that time) due to actual budget cuts.

I mean BFDI was about characters that had lives where they live, the announcer is an alien but overall everything is explained, most of the ones made after are just the show and nothing but the show because "Character writing wasn't what I signed up for".

Terror from hating Ryan's World games to object show community video is truly shocking since being popular at this time

The subversion of expectation and how unease ONE was really left a mark by also ending in a tragedy.

I think it’s possible this cycle keeps going in some way.Liam gets lonely and loses social skills after accidentally killing the old contestants or getting them out,forgets about the horrible reality that is one,makes more,and accidentally spin more people into this cycle of despair.

14:11 fun fact: his eyes disappear here because of texty, or that’s what I think, at least. Texty does research while being kept in the garage, and they were put in the garage while they were in the show. When they get back they find out about the seasons, so they contain more info than Liam.

Seeing a youtuber with over 300K subs making a video about HFJONE of all things really puts a smile on my face. As someone who was addicted to this show when it came out, i am SO HAPPY RIGHT NOW HOLY-

I’m so glad to see T3rr0r cover an object show. One is my of my favorite web series of all time and I’m glad to see this wonderful show reach more people.

29:40 It wasn't a lack of motivation that ended it, it was RU-vid banning their AdSense account and then losing out on millions.

Ok besides the depressing and thought provoking video I just watched, I’m really happy someone’s *FINALLY* talking about Help Hotline! It’s a really comfy show, and I think it’s sad that not a lot of slice of life or non-competition based object shows are really noticed in the OSC. If you’re reading this T3rr0r, ty for talking about this truly revolutionary object show :)

WOAH I DIDN'T EXPECT THIS!! Probably one of my favorite object shows ever and shows how you can't just make one into a game show and you can make something special out of it

14:04 the moment Liam looses the defined eyes, he's talking about Amelia being eliminated soon, since that didn't happen, his eyes weren't defined

24:28 Did you hear that? NOT EVIL. Just because you do horrible things doesn't always mean you have bad intentions!

I love ONE so much. I’m so glad you made a video on it, I’m so happy to see it getting more attention. I’ve always loved object shows, and ONE exceeded my expectations

Now that you are talking about object shows, here's an object show that I recommend talking about, "Excellent Entities". ESPECIALLY the season 2 finale, where it deconstructed everything and revealed the true purpose behind the show. And it was one of the first object shows that is not a speed-run one to finish two full seasons without delays or breaks.

I’m super nostalgic for Object Shows, surprised to see T3rror cover one of them. I remember when they were a super obscure thing, and it’s so bizarre seeing it not be now. Object Shows really are getting super popular recently.

I’m so glad someone made a video about ONE outside of the OSC hope it gets more attention. Thank you

I've always loved Airy for multiple reasons, but the biggest reason, while not being the first, is how he is written, more specifically, how he is used as an antagonist. An antagonist is a character that makes the problem that has to be solved by the end of the story. However, there are a lot of people that see this and think "So just a bad guy then?" without second thought. While there is nothing about that, and I've grown to have a love for antagonists like this, (looking at you, Bowser, Eggman, Mr. Business, and William Afton, etc) it flies right past the goal of a unique character and into a copy and pasted character, which can ruin a show if it has too much of that, along with getting repetitive. Cheesy noticed this and decided "What if the torch guy was an antagonist, but not a villain?" and then went with that idea, ending up making one of the best antagonists I have ever seen. (spoken from an airy stan) I also think the monotone, BanBan ahh voice fits perfectly with Airy as it shows how lonely and desperate he really is (the thing he is desperate for being entertainment).

20:46 my theory with the waiting room is that yes there are multiple, one connected to each seperate dimension since we only see the toothpaste guy when people die in Airy's dimension/The Plane, which is why when Liam and Bryce die on Earth they end up in a crowd full of people, since there's always people dying there The way people perseve the room will always be the same no matter what universe though, but the people there will change depending on which universe they die in

I'm so glad you made a video on this! It's pretty interesting!

I love people making unique object shows that gives a twist.

This actually is one of the best reviews of an object show I’ve ever seen. Great work! 👍

Holy hell seeing a video about ONE from you is so exciting

Was not expecting u to cover an object show tbh. Glad u did tho cause I really love ONE it's not like any other shows.

this is why youre my favourite youtuber. Every phase i go into, you make a video about it. I started watching them a month ago, when this came out.

this was my first object show, and i ended up watching a couple object shows after it and came back to it and realized the deeper meaning glad to see more people covering it

This is definitely one of the animated series of all time

When I saw this notification, I thought that I was dreaming... thanks for covering this masterpiece of a show.

oh my god i cannot thank you enough for this video. I've honestly been having a hard time trying to understand the lore of ONE.. (its been almost a year since i watched it 😭) this video just explained it perfectly !! better than all the other videos I've watched about it also not to mention that this video makes me want to get back into object shows since i haven't been very up-to-date with them

I never heard of this dark object show before, this video was really cool! Especially most of the unexpected edits.

I love this show and the OSC in general, very well made video.

This video has completely changed my perspective on ONE and even how I want to tell the story of my show Project: Breakout! Great video essay BTW!

I love this show! Thank you for making a video of ONE.

You making a video about ONE is probably the least that I've ever expected but I am glad you are giving it the attention it deserves.

i never expected an object show to be life changing but here we are

fun fact : liams full name is Liam Plecak, and plecak in polish translates into backpack.

genuinely wasn’t expecting a video on this from you, great video man

I didn't even think you would make an object show related discussion video, not to mention the object show is ONE! But it's a cool surprise for sure! Great job on the video :]

NO WAY HE TALKED ABOUT IT WHAT!!!! Honestly thank you so much for covering this. Now people will be made mire aware of this and check it out. It honestly doesn't even feel like an object show anymore. Thank you do much

The fact that out of all the topics you picked ONE surprises me and makes me happy.

Out of all of the object shows online you chose the one with the best story. I really appreciate that you helped me catch up on the really confusing story. Thanks

Thank you for making this video, without it, I was going to know about this series a lot later, assuming I was even going to know about it in the first place. Also, great video! :)

As an OSC member, this channel is the last thing i’d expect to have an object show video.

i would have never expected you to make an object show video

im a fan of one (and bfdi, and ii, and other object shows), glad you're talking about this absolute masterpiece :D

One inspired me to start working on my own object show with a twist. Still don't have it out yet, but I'm working on it.

Wow I was not expecting Terror to make a video covering ONE. It's a really phenomenal series so I'm glad Terror did. Anyways this was a really nice watch, I've been meaning to rewatch ONE again but this works!

i just started watching today and i finished watching it today. this gave me a rollercoaster of emotions i never felt before and i quickly got attached to the characters. the ending is definitely unsatisfying, sure, but definitely a great show. i don't know if this is going to be continued, but even if it isnt it will still be one of my favs

I LOVE YOU SO MUCH I WAS LOOKING FOR THE "ONE deleted scene 10" TYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY U EARNED A SUB

WOW!!! THAT WAS SUCH AN AMAZING ANALYSIS VIDEO OF AN OBJECT SHOW!!!! OH MY GOSH!!! Before this video (which I actually in fact watched a few days ago and I am finally commenting on it now) I thought object shows were all just about objects and mainly competitions and voting and stuff. But I was wrong!!! This analysis video of the object show ONE really fascinated me cause it not only introduced me to ONE for the first time but it also analyzed and described how unique and interesting it was compared to other object shows. And I will definitely be taking inspiration from this for my upcoming series Ouraniosomaverse due to how interesting, intriguing, overall inspiring, and also how mysterious and eerie ONE is!!! I loved this video so much!!! This analysis video was definitely one of the best analysis videos that I have seen so far!!!! Bravo to you for it!!! :D

neredeyse yerimden fırlayacaktım. bir nesne gösterisi videosu hazırlamanızı beklemiyordum. bu topluluk kesinlikle hızlı büyüyor.

The editing in this video is so well done, great work!

This is the video that got me into ONE, and I really can't thank you enough for that. So for now I'll just say that this is a very well-put-together video and explained a lot about ONE. This video allowed me to get into ONE while keeping the different layers in mind, and as a result I think I had a better experience watching it. Watching ONE without the added context would have probably left me confused and a bit frustrated, and I might not have loved it as much as I did with context. And now it's one of my favorite things ever, and my Liam plushie shall arrive soon. So yeah. Thank you :D 💖

didnt expect terror to make a video on ONE, especially because this ended like half a year ago

My boy finally covered an object show! While ONE may not be my favorite object show (That's BFDI), it's definitely my second and a really good series!

This was a surprisingly well made video good Job.

Im so happy a big youtuber review this awesome show. Thank you!!!

Honestly, as a member of the OSC myself, I would like to see Object shows that step outside the Status Quo of Competition shows, and Try out other Genres, and i feel like ONE nails it on the head

speaking of object shows that have more depth of character, i recommend watching through inanimate insanity if you havent already. it has fantastic writing (especially once getting into season two) and strikes a really nice chord between "typical fun object show" and a more serious tone. i'd say its somewhere between BFDI and ONE in that way. it kinda had the reputation of being "the sad and deep object show" before ONE came around and picked up in popularity

Didn't expect for you to make a video on this. I loved ONE.

I love how good of an analysis video this is on ONE HFJ. For how this series takes the typical object show format of there being a competition with a prize like Inanimate Insanity, BFDI, and other object shows that do the competition format and makes into something very unique with the way that it tells this story with all the lives that have been affected all because of ONE competition. It's what really got me interested when I watched series for the first time and throughout it really kept me questioning with all the clues that were laid into solving the mystery of ONE with who Airy was and where everyone really was. But thank you T3rr0r for this awesome video!

I am genuinely so happy more people are talking about this show

I have a theory on why Liam and Bryce didn’t meet Julien in the Waiting Room. Each worlds have their own separate Waiting Room and code, and whichever entity in that world dies will go to it’s respective Waiting Room. I.e, if Charlotte were to die in Airy’s world, she would be alone in the Waiting Room. But if Liam were to die at the same time she does but back at their original world, he would be in a crowded Waiting Room, because there are others in that world that died like him. But Charlotte is not there, because they are not on the same Waiting Room. Which means that when Liam first died in, he died in the same world Julien did. Hence why he met Julien that time. But when Liam and Bryce died in their original world, they were greeted with an incredibly crowded space with other objects from their world. Another example of this is when Texty were about to send Liam and Bryce into the Waiting Room, but Bryce was sent back into the Plane, leaving Liam to be the only one. In the Waiting Room, for a small moment, you can see a Sugar Cube running away into the distance. And there is no Julien there. But when Liam travelled to Airy’s world, he almost immediately had Texty send them both back into the Waiting Room out of panic. But the kill command was initiated in Airy’s world, the same world Liam first died in. And who does he meet in the Waiting Room then? Julien. Boom, I’m pretty sure this is pretty easy to figure out but I’m just putting this here bc I’m bored.

wasnt expecting an object show video by T3rr0r, this is great

Thank you for fulfilling my NEED for one content now that its over😊

Fun facts that you don’t have to know: Despite the video of Liam and Bryce kissing being shown in the end 32:19. The video wasn’t made by Lilac’s drawing. The one that was made by Lilac’s drawing is sfw and hilarious.
