Skibidi Toilet is a machinima web series created by Alexey Gerasimov and released through YouTube videos and shorts on his channel DaFuq!?Boom!.

Since the first short was posted on February 7, 2023, Skibidi Toilet has become viral as an internet meme on various social media platforms, particularly among Generation Alpha.

The show has a wide range of licensed products, and Gerasimov is "in talks" with Adam Goodman and Michael Bay for a film and television series adaptation.

The series depicts a conflict between Skibidi Toilets—singing human-headed toilets—and humanoids with CCTV cameras, speakers, and televisions in place of their heads.

Skibidi Toilet is produced by Alexey Gerasimov (Russian: Алексей Герасимов, born 1997 or 1998),[1] also known by his alias "Blugray" or the name of his YouTube channel, "DaFuq!?Boom!

[15] Every episode is produced using Source Filmmaker, a free Valve-published 3D computer graphics software, often used to create and edit clips and movies online.

[18][19] Ultimately, Gerasimov said that Skibidi Toilet's backbone is the other machinima videos created using sandbox game Garry's Mod, which were popular in the late 2000s and number in the thousands.

[28] The lifestyle magazine Dazed called Skibidi Toilet "frenetic, unpredictable, funny and at times genuinely unsettling.

[29] Cartoon Brew, an animation-focused website, wrote that while Skibidi Toilet "may look rough around the edges compared to major studio fare [...] there is no question that Gerasimov is a filmmaker who understands pacing, camerawork, sound design, and how to tell a story.

"[2] Many publications highlighted a viral tweet in which Twitter user @AnimeSerbia called the series Generation Alpha's Slender Man.

[31] The Washington Post noted the series' uniqueness in creating a narrative entirely out of short-form videos and YouTube's ability to stay relevant while competing with TikTok.

[42] On 24 July 2024, it was announced that filmmakers Adam Goodman and Michael Bay were "in talks" with Gerasimov for a movie and television series adaptation of Skibidi Toilet.

[16] The announcement was skeptically received: The A. V. Club said it would be difficult to "translate [...] Internet subculture into traditional formats",[43] and Gizmodo wrote that a movie would have to be "unfathomably expensive to present an experience that's somehow 'deluxe' to its inspiration".
