  You missed the worst part about the basic premise. Supposedly, Hell is growing too powerful, and Heaven wants to prevent that, but then we learn that the devils literally cannot harm angels by any means except the weapons of heaven. Which somehow Vaggie doesn’t know already despite being part of the death squad.

  10 people on the writing team is an immediate red flag, too many cooks comes immediately to mind.

  a cool plot would have been a "crabs in a bucket" scenario where the truly despicable and unredeemable scumbags of hell band together to prevent other citizens from being redeemed, out of envy/spite against heaven/a desire to bolster their own forces.

  One piece of Advice about Advice I&apos;ve taken to heart is: <br>&quot;Find people who love your work, then ask them what they didn&apos;t like. Find people who like your work, and ask them what they liked and didn&apos;t like. Find people who didn&apos;t like you work, and ask them what they liked.&quot;<br><br>Because through rose-colored glasses, all those red flags just look like flags.

  This is a very random nitpick, but most of the cast died during different times, but Rosie, Alastor and Mimzy are the only ones who act like they’re from a different time period. It would’ve been interesting to see everyone have certain mannerisms and values that tie in with the time they were alive.

  It feels like Vivziepop wants to have these &quot;chaotic evil&quot; characters but can&apos;t follow through because that would mean people seeing her overly beloved OCs as the bad guy, so you end up with this dissonance of having and archon of hell giving you self-care advice.

  I think Charlie&apos;s main daddy issues come from the fact that since her dad was depressed, she lacked support and time spent with him, and overall feels his absence. <br><br>But...<br><br>The show doesn&apos;t show any of this in a cohesive way, instead turning to lame exposition and refuting it&apos;s own narrative.

  So essentially, Hazbin Hotel is the subreddit &quot;I&apos;m 14 and this is deep&quot; incarnate?

  It’s crazy how the pilot was way better written than the actual show.

  It is kind of funny how this show depicts hell as LA

  About the scene where Husk just states everyone’s issues out loud, maybe it would’ve been better if those assumptions were just completely wrong. It would establish that Husk thinks he knows everything when he actually doesn’t. Idk what the writers would do with that from there, but I think it’s a start
