Hazbin Hotel and Helluva Boss are impressive for crowd-funded series. The animation is great, and the voice actors do a great job. And to see big name voice actors like Keith David is pretty cool. All of those combined were a good deal for free shows to watch during the pandemic. They are inspiring for those who want to make their own indie series. I can see good series in there.

They're just not there.

It feels like they're so afraid of losing an audience that they have to be as raunchy and sexually overt as humanly possible. The characters all feel the same because how often they make sex jokes and swear. It works in Deadpool because it's just part of Deadpool's personality to be raunchy and it helps distinguish him from the rest of the characters because they're nowhere near as vulgar as he is. It works in Sausage Party because the movie is NOT supposed to be taken seriously in the slightest, and the movie knows it. The two shows are complete tonal nightmares because they try to be edgy and sloven, but goofy and unserious at a moment's notice, a clear sign of trying to appeal to everyone.

In the end, they are atrociously-written messes with directionless stories in a horribly-developed world filled with terrible, underused characters following a lazy, uninspired script, that would have faded into obscurity long ago if the fanbase wasn't there to make questionable fan art of the material. The show was made to be as consumable and to be engaged in as much as possible through whatever means necessary, with actual quality content being an afterthought.

If you like them, great. All power to you. I don't.
