I don’t know if any video stores have it, but it’s on The State’s video “Skits and Stickers (stickers not included).” I believe that particular skit is the very first one.
Death to the Snuggles bear!

Death to the Snuggles bear!
Oh good. This thread lets me know I’m not alone.
Both my daughter and I thought Snuggles was a jerk for treating that poor hedgehog thing like that. All the wanted was some attention and to help out.
Snuggles, you’re a dick!
All I want is to stuff that little fuzzy bastard in a dryer and turn it on full blast until the motor burns up.
He’s a porcupine. And I agree, the Bear is Evil.
The Snuggle Bear is under your bed. Tee-hee-hee.
The porcupine is great, I agree. And so is the State sketch with the bear. But Dijon Warlock, that was just mean. Have you noticed how since he got “hip”, the Bear has sort of pointy, devil-like eyebrows? Ooooh-eeee-oooh.
Now, for a hijack. Don’t you think that the turtle was the best animal to take over for the Cadbury Bunny during those auditions?
It just occured to me that at random moments I have been saying “Ooh, whee, I’m snuggawe saawft” like the porcupine.
I’m not as hardcore anti-Snuggle as some of you though. I think he’s rather like Scott Evil. He’s the Diet Coke of Evil - just one calorie, not evil enough. But only when he’s getting a kick out of berating poor Porcupine. Otherwise, he’s just annoying.
Darn cutesy baby-talk muttering plushie advertising tool.
I have to ask…would you toss in a fabric softener sheet, with him?
Ranchoth
(What music would be best for death-by-dryer? “There is a season (Turn, turn, turn)” or Johnny Cash’s “Ring of Fire”?)
“You Spin Me Round (Like A Record)” - Dead or Alive
or
“How Dry I Am” - various cartoon characters
And this is nothing like being timely and topical (rimshot).
I know that accuracy matters to you, Eve, so I’m taking the liberty of correcting your misconception. It actually is “Snuggle Fabric Softener”.
If I’m being west-coast-centric here, and your region knows it as Hellman’s or something, please forgive my presumptuousness.
I share everyone’s relief that I’m not alone in my loathing of the Snuggle Bear and empathy with the porcupine. I’m not even terribly concerned that there are so many of us with such strong feelings about this. (I only hope someone brings this thread to the attention of the head honcho at Snuggle.)
I’m a little surprise, however, that no one’s raised the issue that’s concerned me for years – what exactly is the connection between the Snuggle Bear and the Pillsbury Dough Boy? Are they in cahoots? Are they related? Are they the same being in different disguises? What is their ultimate goal?
Oh deluded fool! Can you not see that he is sapping your will with pleasantries? The soft velveted touch, that somewhere back in your mind calls up the embrace that cuddles the infant… the relaxing music, so like a child’s lullaby… the subliminal imprecation to ‘just relax and I’ll take care of everything’? This is the siren song of tyrants everywhere! That velvet conceals paw and claw of steel! When you’re not looking, deaw widdle Snuggles will creep from the laundry basket and tear your heart out.
I’m sure whoever approved that advertisement is now on an unexplained ‘leave of abscence’.
I am glad it has been established the animal who “snuggles” berates is a Porcupine, instead of a Hedgehog. I had a Hedgehog for about a week. They eat cat food-and live in a cage. So guess what their poop smells like? Ya-cat poop, but in a little cage. It is disgusting. They also do this wierd little thing where they “self annoint” meaning they puke up this foamy stuff on their backs and rub it in. That is why I had to find “Heidi” a new home. Well that and she escaped one night and crawled up in the wall behind (of all things) the dryer! We had to take apart the wall to get her out!
So anyway Porcupine=cool…Hedgehog=not all that cool, Snuggle bear=bad, very bad, not snuggly and his fabric softner smells like old ladies perfume.
Oh and the Pillsbury Dough boy=cool, someone mentioned him and Snuggle being partners or some such crap. Not true, not true at all. Dough Boy would never be seen in the same circle as Snuggle. Snuggle hangs out with other wannabes like Barney. That’s what I hear anyway.
So Ron Jeremy is now starting to do TV commercials?
I wonder who is going to be next, Linda Lovelace as Mrs. Olsen or John Holmes as Mr. Whipple?

Damn you guys are twisted.
I loved that bear as a child!
Okay, maybe I’M twisted.
Hmm, my first post here. Howdy to everyone.
Anyway, just had to comment on this thread. I really don’t want to kill the happy go lucky feel of the thread, however I feel compelled to share this.
THIS IS NOT A JOKE, IT’S VERY TRUE.
My stepbrother and I were very close when we were younger, and we always felt he was a little strange, perhaps troubled as a child. We never thought anything of it besides maybe some counceling for him until summer a few years ago when he murdered his sister and mother.
Every night he slept with a snuggle bear doll as a child.
Perhaps there is some link to twisted psyche and that image? Oft times it’s the image the actual thing represents rather than it’s physical presence. A tiny bear doesn’t scare me. However the image of a demon bear or rather the concept of something hellish itself guised as an earthly animal cartoonized for the kiddies… that gets me.
Wow, scratches head woulda never thought my first post on the thread would end up like this.
Oh well. Had to quit lurking sometime.
Linda Lovelace passed away a few months back.
John Holmes has been dead a while too.
Now for the warning.
Do NOT go to the Snuggle Fabric Softener site unless you have a popup killer! It is a Popup Hell site, and each and every popup features the Evil One dead center of the image. It is a not very subtle message, methinks… “Your soul is MINE! You cannot escape my snuggly-soft clutches! Muhahahahahaaaaaaaaaa!”
I think the only way to conquer him is to throw a towel that’s been dried on a clothesline out back over him.
So I’m not the ONLY one feeling for the little prickly fella! I thought the bear was kinda smarmy, too.
Here’s what we do - find the stories-high hedgehog from “Mony Python’s Flying Circus” and have him put the fear of God into that snotty Snuggles! That’ll learn 'em!
“Dinsdale…!”

This is a recurring fantasy of mine. I share with you a detail from my fantasy that makes the image more concrete.
Y’know the sound when you have a shoe in the dryer?
