Parents on a Reddit discussion feed about the show has talked about the nightmares they've been having over the programme.
One user said: "My wife and I have nightmares about this show. They way they move. It's not even a joke".
Most people were totally freaked out by a character called 'Moon Baby' who has wide pupils and a pale complexion.
Parents on the thread joked that he looked like "a freaky clown" while another said they thought he looked like he was intoxicated.
One more serious commenter remarked: "When something is THIS disturbing for adults and still appealing to children it makes me feel like they know exactly what they're doing and just seeing how far they can push it at this point."
But many were still quick to remind the parents with their scathing reviews of the programme that it is designed for kids and therefore aimed at young minds rather than adults.
A user called Yorkshire_Dude32 said: "Yes, it's jarring and creepy to view as an adult but this is all hardwired viewing for small humans minds to process and engage with, the characters look this way for a reason and it helps the bambinos analyse and recognise little things."
If you've ever watched Moon and Me we want to know what you think...
