Scare PewDiePie is an American web television series, starring PewDiePie. The series was produced by Maker Studios and Skybound Entertainment, with Robert Kirkman serving as executive producer, and premiered on February 10, 2016 exclusively for YouTube Red, YouTube's subscription service.
It featured PewDiePie exploring sets, designed and based on the horror video games which PewDiePie played and commented over on his YouTube channel.[1]
10 episodes were produced and filmed in Los Angeles, California during September 2015.
There was a planned second season that was to be released on March 9, 2017, called Scare PewDiePie: Multiplayer, where PewDiePie was going to be joined by fellow YouTuber Jacksepticeye, but the show was cancelled before its release.
Plot
In this reality-adventure series, PewDiePie encounters terrifying situations and sets inspired by his favorite survival horror video games he previously played over on his YouTube channel. On some "levels", he is joined by other YouTubers, who follow and help him, including Markiplier, Smosh, Game Grumps, and MatPat.[1]
Production
Development
In September 2015, PewDiePie announced through a vlog that he was working with a camera crew, shooting a show on location in Los Angeles.[2] At the time, PewDiePie did not reveal whether it was to be shot for a television or online audience, confirming that he could not speak too much about the show's details at the time.[2]
In October 2015, YouTube announced YouTube Red, its paid subscription ad service that would offer subscribers an ad-free experience, which would also allow users to download videos for offline viewing.[3] In addition, the service would be launching original content exclusive to YouTube Red subscribers in 2016.[4] This original content was announced to including Scare PewDiePie, the aforementioned series which PewDiePie hinted at.[5] Scare PewDiePie was announced as one of the initial original series of the service, set to be produced by Skybound Entertainment as well as Maker Studios.[6][7]
After the series was announced, PewDiePie spoke about his experience shooting the series, stating, "Shooting a show like this in a completely new format has been so much fun," and adding, "we just wrapped shooting but I still feel unsure every day if I'm safe or not from another scare."[7] During a press release, Skybound's co-founder, Robert Kirkman, stated, "Working with Felix, YouTube and Maker Studios on this venture has been creatively exhilarating and just plain fun. I trust audiences will love the show as much as we loved creating it."[5]
On June 23, 2016, YouTube announced that Scare PewDiePie, as well as another YouTube Red show—Foursome—will both be renewed for a second season.[8] However, on February 14, 2017, YouTube announced that Scare PewDiePie would be cancelled due to a controversy surrounding anti-semitic jokes and imagery used by PewDiePie in his videos.[9]
