Your Pretty Face Is Going to Hell

Hell is hiring

A live-action workplace comedy about Gary, an associate demon, as he attempts to capture souls on earth in order to climb the corporate ladder of the underworld. Gary hopes to advance in Hell, but he may be too stupid, lazy and kind-hearted to realize his dreams of promotion. Meanwhile, Gary's intern Claude is more talented, more devious and will do whatever it takes to impress Satan.

Mixed review

I actually enjoyed this and thought it was quite funny, despite being quite extremely vulgar (it's not for everyone, that's for sure). There are serious problems with it, however. It plays into the woke agenda in several episodes, unfortunately.

There is a bit where Satan laments that fewer people are going to Hell because there's more diversity and less racism. Really? "Diversity" is just code for anti-white; it's a form of racism.

And in traditional Christian theology, those who reject God and do not repent of their sins go to Hell, not progressive Leftists. Wokeism is not morally superior, though it imagines it is. The show is confused on this point.

Probably the worst one is an episode (forget which one) where Satan kills a right-wing radio host - based on Alex Jones I think - and takes over his job. The idea being that conservatives are going to Hell, Not Leftists? Not Communists? Hitler is shown in Hell but not Stalin or Mao? It's lop-sided.

In the episode "Conceal and Gary" (S4E11) there is an offensive depiction of aborted babies as being in Hell. Any Christian knows they go instantly to Heaven. I am serious. As a Christian, I find that depiction wrong. It's a comedy show but if anyone deserves to be in Hell, it's the abortion doctors and those who promote abortion (e.g., Planned Parenthood), not the victims of it. At least they had one episode where a physician who conducts euthanasia (in a rather bloody manner) is shown as damned.

The depiction of Heaven in another episode is rather tepid: golf and baking. I didn't find that offensive, however. At least this show conveys the idea that Heaven and Hell are real, even if they are portrayed satirically. Yes, I know it's a comedy but these woke elements marred what was otherwise a funny comedy.
