I'd say she's more "(successful) Andrew Dobson", especially going by aspects like her reactions to critique, how her shows are cobbled together from years old ideas (that said you could argue that's not really exclusive to either but still...) etc.
I thought that was Stella at first, lol.Yet, they still want to pull off these cheap-ass pathos moments like:

Awwww, the temu irkens and their balto oc (who are also hitmen who murder people for profit, innocent or otherwise) are having the big sad moment. Don't you wanna cry as well, viewer? It's really saaaad
Mom, no!
LoL, good point. With Dobson being a creep "male feminist ally"... yet she is inverted?
"Here are the two puppies you always wanted Stella."
It is funny going back and seeing people disappointed at how Stella turned out. They got accused of being mad that the show didn't turn out like their headcanon but really they're only guilty of having too much faith in Viv.
Stella is so justified in hating Stolas that Viv is afraid to give her an ounce of characterization. She introduced Andrealphus for the sole purpose of being a villain you can't sympathize with who also kinda hates Stella for some reason.
Oh my god, what the hell is going on with Loona's body? Or lack of body I should say. Her neck must have been stretch out if her arms are hanging that low to hug and she can still managed to lean her chin on Moxxie's head. I suppose her tail is the body since it's attached to nothing.Yet, they still want to pull off these cheap-ass pathos moments like:

That is not a flattering angle for Loona at all. It's like those screencaps of front facing Simpsons characters.
I'm sorry but why does Loona have an entirely too-human face in this screen cap. Like either make it anime-esque and go all the way with the "wolf" or have your human-faced dog shit actually look like what it's supposed to be. There are too many artists, and nobody can stay consistent or on-model to begin with.Yet, they still want to pull off these cheap-ass pathos moments like:

Yeah the drawings in this show can be really wonky in certain places, though I can't really blame the poor animators for that either; I mean, just look at most of the designs. Lack of neg. space, no composition, details not wrapping around the forms they're framing, and shoddy construction all around! Good luck trying to move these guys around without having to "cheat"!
That; also the characters, even in their watered-down forms aren't really designed well at all for quick or easy animation.
I'd be willing to bet there is porn of Loona more on-model than whatever the fuck this is.
Viv already made Stella a complete psycho bitch from day 1 since the S2 opening episode has a picture of Stella as a child strangling small animals, because fuck any sort of nuance.
The retcons with Stella's and Stolas' marriage would be tolerable if it simply boiled down to them being fundamentally incompatible people, and how arranged marriages almost always end in disaster. Since Helluva does touch on themes of Hell's society being fundamentally broken, a rewritten storyline could actually help reinforce this theme by making even members of the upper class miserable because of it instead of just Stolas being sad since Stella is just an evil bitch.
You have to wonder what exactly the plan for Stella was at the beginning. She went from someone who was reasonably mad at her husband for cheating on her to a cartoonishly evil supervillain who hates her family and was always born evil.
I was thinking recently about how the demo version of "You Will Be Okay" explicitly references The Book of Revelation and that Stolas believes Octavia will be saved on Judgement Day. "And if the heavens crash aground / I know you'll hear the trumpets sound / and you'll be okay".
Is Jesus Christ canon in this show? I really hope they don't make a fursona for Him. Even when it's supposed to be a positive "take" it's always the grimiest thing when people do that.
The closest reference would be Blitzo saying, "Christ on a stick, I guess there is a God," in the pilot, but that likely doesn't count according to Viv.
