Good luck... yeah i doubt that will work...how many indie animated shows do you see on youtube?(not many...) regardless i think it's kind of silly how there's already so much merchandise for a show that's just a pilot with the statement being "the money you spend on shirts and pins goes towards the show!" but when you only have a pilot....it's kind of difficult to buy merchandise and promote something that may not even come out for all we know leaving the merchandise as some reminder of what could have been Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's something concrete that they can gauge to see how marketable the show could potentially be. It's similar to Shark Tank if you ever watch that. The Network are in the same position as investors.

Jman Posted August 7, 2020 Author Share Posted August 7, 2020 Well I was wrong. Looks like Hazbin scored a deal with A24 (responsible for numerous film and television items including Uncut Gems) and is currently shopping for a distributor.

This is a great opportunity for Vivziepop. All she has to do is not hang out with sexual predators or defend them if any more pop up in her social circle. This isn't even a dig at her, but that'll probably happen again because the animation world can be fucking trash. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m just glad that someone is able to do something in Western animation that isn’t the same six face slurry or desperately trying to be Japanese. It’s its own thing.

Not surprised. A basic search of some of the original voice actors turned up old videos or people talking about old videos where they played online edgelord 'for the lulz'. Going by the comments on the recasts, one of them was still doing some creepy shit too. Yeah, it's nice to have grown up during a time when the stupid shit I said in my teens and early twenties are easily gone from the internet, but it was still mild stuff. I never felt the need to record myself saying a bunch of slurs or rape jokes when there was more ability to upload on youtube because I had some common sense about content on the internet possibly lasting for a long time and knew making videos like that was an asshole thing to do. I also wasn't one of these mostly white suburban spoiled ass folks who went into their twenties thinking that consequences didn't apply to them, so that probably helped too.

Chapinator_X Posted December 29, 2021 Share Posted December 29, 2021 The site’s a bit hokey, but it’s the closest article that talks about the recasting. https://www.thefocus.news/tv/hazbin-hotel-recast/ I just think it’s crazy because Hazbin Hotel has had the same cast for the past two years. Where rather than trying to iron out getting online VA’s unionized for the roles they played, they took the least laborious option and removed them altogether. It’s not shocking since changes are bound to happen when you’re going from a web original to a TV program. I’m mostly surprised they didn’t try to throw enough resources into getting the voices for Angel Dust or Charlie’s singing voice back.

MasqueradeOverture Posted March 19, 2022 Share Posted March 19, 2022 I like the cel-like shadow behind the characters. The fact that they bothered with something as small as that to feel like some demented early-90's Warner Bros. offshoot *chef's kiss* Now I wonder who the writers are involved (my main concern because the comedy writing in the pilot is excrement), but it's A24. There is nothing under the A24 label that doesn't in some way slap excessively hard. Spoiler Including Euphoria, which I will never watch but acknowledge its "slapicity."

Jman Posted October 27, 2022 Author Share Posted October 27, 2022 (edited) A set release date, but still no word on who is distributing it. Given Helluva Boss episodes have been freely distributed on YouTube one would gather that getting A24 means it’s Netflix or Amazon bound. I’m presuming Netflix given they have a working relationship with A24. Edited October 27, 2022 by Jman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
