Helluva Boss's latest episode proved to be a massive hit, attracting an impressive five million views within the first twenty-four hours of its release.

As the acclaimed indie adult animated series concludes its run in 2023, fans eagerly await the arrival of its sister show, Hazbin Hotel, on Prime Video in January 2024.

Helluva Boss’ Midseason Special Shakes Up the Series

appeal stems from its availability on YouTube. In contrast to many streaming services, the show is not restricted by a paywall, making it accessible to all viewers. Both Helluva Boss and Hazbin Hotel’s pilot episodes have amassed impressive view counts of 59 million and 91 million respectively, attracting a dedicated fan base. It remains to be seen whether these numbers will also translate to Prime Video upon the arrival of Hazbin Hotel, and whether fans will show their support by purchasing the exclusive Season 1 merchandise for the show.

Introducing the Prince of Greed, Mammon, played by Michael Cusack from Smiling Friends, the mid-season finale showcased his character as the employer of Brightman's Fizzarolli. Recent episodes have heavily focused on Fizzarolli, particularly his secret relationship with the Prince of Lust, Asmodeus, portrayed by James Monroe Iglehart. This dynamic serves as a parallel to the show's main couple, Blitzo (Brandon Rogers) and Stolas (Bryce Pinkham), who have been separated since Season 2, episode 4, titled "Western Energy." However, both Blitzo and Stolas play an important role in the unfolding storyline involving Fizzarolli and Asmodeus. Fans eagerly anticipate the impact of this happy couple on the more turbulent duo. Hazbin Hotel is set to premiere on Prime Video in January 2024. For a sneak peek, watch the trailer below for a glimpse of the show's opening song, "Happy Day in Hell."
