#I NEED HER to focus on Charlie and Vaggie and the actual rehab group she's writing

My Spindle/horse feelings are complicated for reals, but Loser, Baby is gunna be in my head for the next five years, right next to Fuck You, which i wish had a better title, if I wasn't sold on Husk before I am now

Fuck it okay I’m gonna watch the 2nd ep of Hazbin, I’m gonna be brave

This ep isn’t as grating as the first for me, but good LORD does this show have no idea who to focus on. The title suggests it’s going to be about Alastor and Vox’s rivalry, but it switches like halfway through to focus on Pentious coming to the hotel?? While also throwing the side plot with Angel Dust and Valentino at us too??? Please for the love of god pick a focus for each episode

The song still comes out of basically nowhere but is overall pretty fun and catchy

Vox is literally just Alastor’s body with a square head I’m sorry I had to say it

I fucking hate Valentino, like viscerally hate him. I feel gross every time he speaks. Someone needs to rip his throat out with their teeth by the end of this season or sooner

Pentious being the villain who consistently fails at being a villain is admittedly pretty amusing. I’m a bit of a sucker for men who are absolutely pathetic

Now that I’m thinking about it, how does Charlie actually plan on redeeming sinners?? It feels like the hotel’s supposed to be like a rehab center, with group therapy sessions and the like, but her methods are clearly pretty childish and ineffective. I’m assuming she’s maybe going to have an arc where she realizes it’s going to take more work to rehabilitate sinners, but given that she’s literally grown up in Hell you’d think she’d already know that

Wait a fucking second actually, what if instead of being Lucifer and Lilith’s daughter, Charlie was an angel who came to Hell to try and help redeem sinners? Her naivety and positive outlook would make way more sense if she hadn’t actually grown up amongst the carnage in Hell. I came up with that in like, 30 seconds and I already think that’s a way more interesting premise

I also know the whole “they seem like good friends” is a common meme used when describing f/f couples but god Charlie and Vaggie are not written like a couple at all. They barely interact, and nothing they say or do explicitly communicates they’re a couple and not just friends. Just a kiss or some kind of show of affection or just one of them calling the other “babe” would be enough and yet there’s just, nothing

Any m/m couples are portrayed as either horrifically abusive or aggressively one-sided too. Damn this show is just doing an equal disservice to both the girls and the gays

How do Overlords work?? Does a sinner have a random chance to become an extra powerful demon when they enter Hell? Or is it tied to how much sin they commit when they’re alive? What do Overlords even do? What’s their end goal?

Okay Charlie's fluffy bed head is actually pretty cute

Oh okay we're gonna have a happy apology song seconds after Pentious literally set up cameras in the hotel?? Kinda feels like we didn't put in the leg work for an entire song once again but here we are

Why does Charlie have more chemistry with Pentious than literally anyone else so far

Overall, not as painful as the first ep, still horrendously bad pacing and overall just feels extremely rushed.
