Helluva Boss

Helluva Boss is the type of show every adult animation should aspire to be. It doesn't rely on cheap laughs and shock humor like Family Guy and South Park. The writing goes into humor mixed with extensive backstories, lore, and character development. Far different from many adult cartoons.

The voice acting is just amazing. Broadway stars like Alex Brightman, Barrett Wilbert Weed, and Bryce Pinkham, mixed with VA veterans like Cristina Vee, Erica Lindbeck, and Richard Horvitz is a recipe for success. Seriously I couldn't tell that Octavia was voiced by Barrett.

And the animation flows like water it's that good. All of this was done by independent animators who got their careers started through Youtube. Yes I'm serious, this show was done by independent animators no big studios were involved in making this at all.

Everything is just so well done I'm surprised that this is just a youtube show. It's really that good.

My spouse loves this show, but it's really not my cup of tea.

Creative world-building, but the shows attempts to strike a range of emotions with its audience through music, humor, emotion, action. It can often be a hit-or-miss.

The plot feels a bit scattered with each episode contributing little to an overall plot. I don't see much character development & don't feel connected to the characters.

The humor isn't too clever and seems to heavily rely on comments being as vulgar/sexual as possible. Which becomes predictable and lackluster within a few episodes.

Ultimately, I think it's worth checking out the 1st episode. But there's no need to keep watching if it doesn't capture your interest from there.

Helluva boss was pretty hilarious short which in my opinion could work as a full series. Even though this is only a pilot the characters are great and the jokes are funny. I just they can turn this into a series.

A little warning all though it is animated this is not for young children.

"Helluva Boss" is a great show for what it is. It is completely free to watch on YouTube and has animation on par and even better than most modern adult animations. The characters are all very easy to like, despite most of them being horrible people. It is a fun and original show that I feel deserves more acknowledgement. The only minor complaint I have is the somewhat formulaic episode structure and the long waiting period between the episodes. Otherwise it is a great show deserving of praise.

The animation is probably the best I've ever seen from a cartoon, and it makes it even more interesting because it's independent, this is a great recommend watch. The animation industry has been going through so much these days. You have the news that the MCU is overworking, they're animators. Do you have the news that the owl house is getting cancelled. And the fact that animation is struggling so much means that we should at least give props to the independent animation because they are making animations that would've never been made if they were under a TV network and I generally want you all to support shows like.
