Plot: In an attempt to find a non-violent alternative for reducing Hell’s overpopulation, the daughter of Lucifer opens a rehabilitation hotel that offers a group of misfit demons a chance at redemption.
Season 1 of Hazbin Hotel was not that good in my opinion.
Pros: Every voice over performance was good. The songs were very catchy. How they did with the animation was superb and Alan was such a dislikable dick that you love to hate.
Cons: The show itself over time does get to be obnoxious and unengaging. I became less engaged with its structure as it was going on. Some film shots did feel jarring and the premise does get convoluted as this series goes on.
