    The basic idea is that the universe is unjust and gods sends people to hell for "sins" because of his own bigotry.

    Of course, they dropped all that when they realized that gay tumblr ships were going to get more views that whatever the original point was.

      The show was Tumblr as hell from the jump, they didn't drop anything, that's always been the whole point.

        It was Tumblr as hell but it switched from that and a story to tumblr fanfiction of its own characters.

        Even Tumblr will admit that Tumblr can be up its own ass every now and then and see shipping as the product instead of something to compliment it.

    Viziepop is obviously not a Christian though, I think she just likes the edgy gay hot topic aesthetic.

    Tbf while I've heard that Vivzie is kind of a crypto-bigot(not talking bitcoin), you also just like probably couldnt get a show greenlit about just torturing bad people in hell, you might be able to make a french horror movie out of that but idk about an animated show.

    Probably also a symptom of like pop culture trying to be subversive about heaven and hell and all that stuff.

      Sure you could, if it's really cartoony and make it clear that these people are awful and have learned nothing.

        I just dont think that you would get greenlit if you went into any kind of office and pitched "Slapstick Hitler in HELL!", it sounds like a running gag for a struggling artist in a sitcom.

        I feel like the only companies that would consider it, would also just not think that the premise is funny enough to survive beyond one or two short films.

        You make a horny furry show about furries fucking and get mad at me for sexualizing it?!

        E: curiosity got the better of me. How did Vivz call it out?

          If it's what I'm thinking, it's not so much a "call out" as a "fourth wall breaking joke", where a character says something about sexual freaks drooling all over a furry character and then everyone looks at the camera.

        deservedly so, there's enough Loona shit out there that I very regularly see people complain about there being too much of it. I think there's more stuff of her than of any other single character relative to the age of the source media.

    "The reason Milton wrote in fetters when he wrote of angels and God and at liberty when of Devils and Hell is because he was a true poet and of the Devil's party without knowing it."

    Is hell fun, at least? I'll go if it's fun. I don't even care if everything is cast in an eerie red tint.

      Hazbin Hotel's Hell is pretty gnarly. The basis is that hell is getting overcrowded, so there's a lot of hell slums and whatnot. The spinoff Helluva Boss makes it very clear that Hell is mostly the same as the Earth above: work for a living or suffer in poverty. There is an elite class of aristocratic wealth and everyone else.

      I like it, it's like Spencer's Gifts and Hot Topic got together to make a cartoon, lots of "and then the babies died horribly" jokes that are edgy but still feel almost kid-friendly because they fly past you and aren't dwelled on.

      It's the spiritual successor to Invader Zim, is what I'm saying.

        There's a section in one episode which is a minute of a person going through the voice mails sent by their abusive pimp played to the audience without a single joke.
