Now, Harry is a self-centred bully, and Snape is the OnlySaneMan of the cast.

[[caption-width-right:355:Alas, a cornucopia of awesome.]]
NeilCicierega, of {{Animutation}} fame, created two flash cartoons featuring hand-puppet versions of the main characters from ''HarryPotter''. The humorous cartoons quickly gained popularity (even with Rowling herself and DanielRadcliffe), and the ''[[http://www.potterpuppetpals.com/ Potter Puppet Pals]]'' series was born.
Eventually, Neil and his friends moved on from animated shorts to live-action shorts featuring real puppets, and they've even done a couple of live shows with the puppets. The series is most famous for the number of [[MemeticMutation memes]] it has spawned.
Also, Neville is a butternut squash.
'''Shorts include''':
* "Bothering Snape": Ron and Harry [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin bother Snape]].
* "Trouble at Hogwarts": Voldemort invades Hogwarts, and it's up to Harry, Ron, and Hermione to stop him.
* "Potions Class": Snape describes Potions Class to Harry and friends in a ''very'' disturbing way. Not to mention Dumbledore wanting expired gorilla milk for his bowels.
* "Wizard Angst": Harry's feeling cranky and pubescent today, and he doesn't know why!
* "Mysterious Ticking Noise": The entire cast sings along to a mysterious ticking noise [[spoiler:which unfortunately turns out to be a pipe bomb]]. (Yes, this includes Voldemort.)
* "Wizard Swears": Harry, Ron, and Hermione learn magical profanity.
* "School is for Losers": Harry Potter says school is for losers!
* "The Awakening of the Incorruptible" (later renamed "Albus Dumbledore Lists Your Good Qualities"): The most epic Potter Puppet Pals short ever.
* "The Vortex": A strange vortex appears, and Ron finally goes through puberty.
* "Ron's Disease": Ron gets Wizard Lice, and only Hagrid can cure it.
* "Snape's Diary": Harry steals Snape's diary, and he reads it aloud to Ron and Hermione.
* "Mustache Buddies": Voldemort decides to grow a mustache and has Snape do it too.
* "Ron's Parents": Ron has parents, Harry doesn't.
* "Harry's Nightmares": Harry recalls a series of horrible nightmares.
* "Draco Puppet": Harry introduces us to the [[ShowWithinAShow puppet's puppet version]] of Draco Malfoy.
* "Ginny": Harry flirts with Ron's hot younger sister.
* "Neville's Birthday": Harry, Ron and Hermione attend Neville's birthday party on threat of expulsion.

[[caption-width-right:355:Alas, a cornucopia of awesome.]]
NeilCicierega, of {{Animutation}} fame, created two flash cartoons featuring hand-puppet versions of the main characters from ''HarryPotter''. The humorous cartoons quickly gained popularity (even with Rowling herself and DanielRadcliffe), and the ''[[http://www.potterpuppetpals.com/ Potter Puppet Pals]]'' series was born.
Eventually, Neil and his friends moved on from animated shorts to live-action shorts featuring real puppets, and they've even done a couple of live shows with the puppets. The series is most famous for the number of [[MemeticMutation memes]] it has spawned.
Also, Neville is a butternut squash.
'''Shorts include''':
* "Bothering Snape": Ron and Harry [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin bother Snape]].
* "Trouble at Hogwarts": Voldemort invades Hogwarts, and it's up to Harry, Ron, and Hermione to stop him.
* "Potions Class": Snape describes Potions Class to Harry and friends in a ''very'' disturbing way. Not to mention Dumbledore wanting expired gorilla milk for his bowels.
* "Wizard Angst": Harry's feeling cranky and pubescent today, and he doesn't know why!
* "Mysterious Ticking Noise": The entire cast sings along to a mysterious ticking noise [[spoiler:which unfortunately turns out to be a pipe bomb]]. (Yes, this includes Voldemort.)
* "Wizard Swears": Harry, Ron, and Hermione learn magical profanity.
* "School is for Losers": Harry Potter says school is for losers!
* "The Awakening of the Incorruptible" (later renamed "Albus Dumbledore Lists Your Good Qualities"): The most epic Potter Puppet Pals short ever.
* "The Vortex": A strange vortex appears, and Ron finally goes through puberty.
* "Ron's Disease": Ron gets Wizard Lice, and only Hagrid can cure it.
* "Snape's Diary": Harry steals Snape's diary, and he reads it aloud to Ron and Hermione.
* "Mustache Buddies": Voldemort decides to grow a mustache and has Snape do it too.
* "Ron's Parents": Ron has parents, Harry doesn't.
* "Harry's Nightmares": Harry recalls a series of horrible nightmares.
* "Draco Puppet": Harry introduces us to the [[ShowWithinAShow puppet's puppet version]] of Draco Malfoy.
* "Ginny": Harry flirts with Ron's hot younger sister.
* "Neville's Birthday": Harry, Ron and Hermione attend Neville's birthday party on threat of expulsion.
Some of the fans of this series made {{Fanvid}}s of these {{Fanvid}}s, using the same or similar programs and posted them on {{YouTube}}.

!!This series provides examples of:
* AlternativeCharacterInterpretation: [[invoked]] All the characters is exaggerated and twisted versions of the original Harry Potter characters, all in the name of RuleOfFunny. Dumbledore is an outrageous ditz, Ron is a pathetic, effeminate YesMan who adores Harry despite constantly being insulted by him, Harry is a self-centered {{Jerkass}} who is desperate for attention, and Snape is a ComicallySerious loner who nobody takes seriously because of his tendency to get angsty over almost everything.
** Dumbeldore also happens to be an android. A ''gay'' android.
*** And yet only half of that is alternate.
* AudienceParticipationSong: The "Avada Kedavra" song in the live show
* ButtMonkey: Ron.
* CanisLatinicus
* ChristmasEpisode: The Yule Ball 2010 live performance.
* ClusterBleepBomb: Dumbledore's recitation of The Elder Swear in "Wizard Swears", also invoking NoodleImplements to a degree:
---> Your mother is a ''(censored)''-ing ''(censored)'' Lorem Ipsum ''(censored)'' Admitum Venium ''(censored)'' Treguna ''(censored)'' hippopotamus ''(censored)'' republican ''(censored)'' and Daniel Radcliffe ''(censored)'' with a bucket of ''(censored)'' in a castle far away where no one can hear you ''(censored)'' soup ''(censored)'' with a bucket of ''(censored)'' Mickey Mouse ''(censored)'' and a stick of dynamite ''(censored)'' magical ''(censored)'' '''alakazam!'''
** Note that it takes him no less than ''forty-three seconds'' to say this.
* ComedicSociopathy: Poor, ''poor'' Neville. Haha.
* CompletelyMissingThePoint: In "Snape's Diary".
-->'''Snape's Diary''': I was at the Yule Ball with Lily Evans. I asked her to dance. She asked me to die. Would that I could Lily...would that I could...
-->'''Harry''': "My mum was awesome!"
* ContinuityNod: In "Snape's Diary", one of the diary entries is about "Bothering Snape."
* CuckooNest: Occurs in "Harry's Nightmares" as a ShoutOut to ''ShutterIsland''.
* CurseCutShort:
-->'''Ron:''' Maybe he's in ''loooove!''
-->'''Hermione:''' Who'd fall in love with such an a-
-->'''Ron:''' Maybe he needs a hug!
** Harry says "What the f--" just as [[spoiler:Neville is exploding]] in "Neville's Birthday".
* TheDitz:
** Ron.
** Dumbledore, who most definitely qualifies.
* DrivenToSuicide: [[spoiler:Harry]] at the end of "Ginny".
** [[spoiler: Neville ''[[YourHeadAsplode Self-]][[SelfDestructMechanism Destructs]]'' when he realizes that no one likes him. [[CrossesTheLineTwice And yes, it's funny]].]]
* EasterEgg: [[spoiler:"Follow the butterflies, follow the butterflies, WEE~!" "Ronnicus Explodicus!"]]
* EvenNerdsHaveStandards: In "Neville's Birthday", after Harry and Hermione inform Neville that nobody likes him:
--> '''Ron:''' Even ''I'' look down on you! ME!
* EverybodyLaughsEnding: Done with a beautifully nonsensical twist in "Wizard Angst".
* EverythingsBetterWithPlushies
* EvilSoundsDeep: Voldemort is depicted with a deep, reverberating voice.
* FantasticRacism: {{Lampshaded}} when the Draco Malfoy puppet says "I'm really proud that I'm pure-blooded [[FreudianSlip white]] -- I mean, [[LastSecondWordSwap wizard]]."
* HalloweenEpisode: The Youmacon 2010 live performance.
* HeroicSociopath: Harry. At one point he leads a half-awake Hagrid all over the school grounds to club everyone in sight. [[RuleOfFunny Except Voldemort]].
* HollywoodPudgy: Harry constantly makes snide remarks about Ron's eating habits and weight, despite Ron obviously being build from the same puppet template as him.
** Which is hilarious, considering that Ron in the books is extremely tall and thin.
* HomoeroticSubtext: Ron has an obvious one-sided crush on Harry.
** Apparently Harry returns Ron's feelings on a subconscious level through his attraction to Ginny, who is basically just Ron with TertiarySexualCharacteristics.
* GilliganCut: The end of "Wizard Swears"
* GroupHug: The end of "Trouble at Hogwarts". It's a pretty weird version, though, considering one of the members of the group is a naked old man...
** And in "The Vortex": "Lose some weight before you hug me, Ron."
* {{Jerkass}}: Harry.
* KickTheDog: Harry mercilessly picks on Neville, Ron and Snape.
