HELLUVA BOSS SEASON 2 EPISODE 1 THE CIRCUS  

Funny, when they were kids, they had zero idea about their own status, (Blitz being an imp, Stolas being a prince), Stolas said he would work for him :)

i still can't believe they got jafar's voice actor to voice stolas' dad

Stolas standing up for himself is fantastic in this episode and seeing his backstory is amazing he's so cute as a kid

This episode showed us how the dynamic between Blitz and Stolas started and how it has always repeated the same pattern: Stolas is interested in Blitz, Blitz uses him to get something he wants, BUT, in the process, Blitz genuinely enjoys Stolas' company. He enjoyed being his friend that day as kids, and he definitely enjoyed their first sexual encounter as adults (Blitz said he "could do it real fast" and ended up spending the whole night with Stolas and left the next morning). The thing is, they need to break this pattern to build a healthy relationship. They love each other, but they haven't talked about their feelings at all. Stolas started his development already by standing up for himself and demanding the divorce from his abusive wife. Now, I hope it's Blitz turn to start growing and he fights his self-hatred and fear of abandonment (we saw all the things tormenting him in episode 6 of season 1). He's terrified of being hurt and alone, but he also pushes anyone who gets too close precisely because of that fear.

I just want to pick up kid Stolas and give him a hug. He deserved to have parents who actually loved him, even if it is Hell and he's a demonic prince. He's been my favorite character since the pilot and knowing he put on a brave act just so his daughter could have a good childhood makes me love him even more.

Now it makes more sense why Stolas brought Via to a circus/amusement park when she was a kid. He found his first friend there and thought she might have a great time as well

This episode did portray Blitz in a very poor light, but it also showed he had a bad childhood too. Thru-out the first season we saw hints that Blitz had a rough past that altered his views. Hell end of episode seven showed a wall of pictures of people he cares for, with him scratched off or marked away. Blitz is a deeply damaged person. Stolas is a emotionally starved and broken person as well. It is unfortunate that what started their relationship is all on a lie. I am interested to see more on what is going to happen, and if we get more backstory. Cause we have yet to see Blitz's mom or sister, plus how he got his scars. Also how Fizzaroli got his scars and turned into a cyborg.

Stolas talking all horny, all the words that were bleeped and him saying "that was the sound of a fucking divorce!!!" Were all the best and funniest parts of this season 2 premier.

His father was the original voice actor for Jafar in Aladdin.

I love that Stolas stood up to that evil bish Stella and he only put up with her constant insults because he wanted his daughter to have a great childhood now that is a great dad.

I love how absolutely DONE they were with Stolas' dad😂😂

We got a full veiw of the tragedy that is Stolas's life. But we got a hint of the tragedy of blitz. From what we know so far blitz has been playing second fiddle to fizz and maybe his sister even though we haven't seen anything of her but she was a celebrity at least. Then his father only cares about what he gets out of blitz with no care for his safety and he will manipulate to get it. Which if thats blitz's childhood him scamming stolas makes sense but I think he caught feels for stolas and that scares him.

My boy stolus taking anti depressants. And also did y’all notice how blitz and fizzarolli doesn’t have their big white scars aka the patches on their skin and fizz isn’t a amputee yet he has all his limbs when he’s younger but not when he’s older.

It's kinda great seeing Blitz perspective last episode and his feelings and Stolas this episode

They did an insane job with this, they took Stolas as a character who seemed like a terrible person, and then showed why he is like he is, and suddenly his bad aspects suddenly are explained and he seems even more of an awesome char and alot more relatable

Fun fact: Blitzo's interest in pirates in his childhood explains why almost every time Blitzo is using a blunderbusses out of all weapons Edit: Also Stolas and his wife are LITERALLY Johnny Depp and Amber Heard

I have to say this was worth the wait in according to Viziepop we don't have to wait long for the next episode

Fun fact, in the actual Ars Goetia, Stolas is said to teach basically everything having to do with studying nature. Seriously, the list includes astronomy and astrology as shown in the show, but also geology, botany, zoology and mathematics

"It seems like it's been forever" "It Hazbin" 👁️👄👁️ Genius

It was not what I expected, but still very emotional. Fizzarollie, Blitz and Stolas have a lot in common.... All three were abused for something... (I think Blitz abandoned the circus and Fizzarollie didn't want to have anything to do with him anymore and then got in contact with Mammon (Imbodiement of Greed) (3rd absuse)). Stella is actually the worst. She is a perfect example of a toxic, manipulative character. Stolas may not have been honest, but he is not a bad guy. She probably hates herself because she has never experienced love, and accordingly enjoys being able to use others. But, what will happen when she no longer has anyone to abuse? And what if Octavia realizes what she has done?

Stolas: I have a very good memory. Also Stolas: I barely remember your name.

17:47 That's how Fizz dips Blitzo in one of the storyboards in the Season 2 trailer, interesting

Goodbye innocence.

The fact the Butler has a condom on hand...what was he expecting at this circus?

@They call me Hat Guy If you go back to the pilot episode, you now know why Stolas was ready for Blitzo when Blitzo took the book and jumped out of the window and landed on the table.

This show is so good. Hollywood has failed miserably, long live 12 dudes drawing stuff on the internet!

18:55 Chad’s face here is priceless here!

Loveless marriage + Suppressed honriness + Blitzo being a horny manipulator = Stolas and his honriness to Blitzo.....plus he loved Blitzo and Blitzo used him which is sad. Probably feels something for Stolas but he is hateful to love. Hope they work things out

"THAT was the sound of a FUCKING divorce! *maniacal laughter*" LMFAO, I love Stolas! 🤘🤣

The symbol on Stolias's palace is different from the eralier episodes. It is the symbol of his father. Sooo..... each princes has a palace they are being raised alone till they reach adult..?

In the episode with Asmodeus Blitz got sad bc he wanted something more, he was clearly actually starting to love Stolas too but Stolas was thinking he doesn't want it

Fun fact Stolas and his father are part of an actual book with demons which are 72 in total so Stolas might have 70 siblings

Im kinda scared. I love Stolas to bits but the closeup of the asmodean crystals and the song using his original theme... I'm kinda worried that HE is gonna be the big bad of this season

I'm super interested to see which Goetic demon they choose to be Stella's brother since there's about 70 options left from the Ars Goetia text lol Also I'm so glad Stollas finally stood up to and broke it off with his abusive wife Stella. Always hated her

Man that was quick. And very welcome

For me, it was Nightmsre on Elm Street. They tried playing up the creep factor, but Robert Englund seemed to really enjoy his role...

”It feels like it’s been forever” “it (hazbin 😂) “

While Blitz is definitely fucked up, and treats Stolas awfully, Stolas actually treats Blitz just as badly. Stolas fetishizes Blitz in a big way, constantly reinforcing the sexual nature of their relationship to the detriment of the romantic side, and is entirely ignorant of the reality of the class dynamics between the two, unintentionally dominating and humiliating Blitz time after time, while also objectifying him. Even the premise of their relationship is one of authority and domination. Stolas literally holds Blitz's livelihood over the latter's head via the grimoire, and this episode I think has Stolas realizing this a bit, I think. A fan translated the page of the grimoire on Asmodian Crystals, and discovered that they would allow Blitz to go into the human world without the use of the grimoire. I think that Stolas will give such a crystal to Blitz, and it will free Blitz of that aspect of the power dynamic, at which point the relationship will either collapse entirely or it will finally have room to grow into something healthier.

credit to Stellas voice actress for the "what the fuck was that Stolas" sounds super raspy, iiif she gets a song a or something in future, could be a real nice rock vocal maybe

he did "destroy him" giggity

I just subbed I can feel the emotion

HatGuy, your emotions are perfectly on point.

Love how mrs. Hat Guy says "Douche"

You were in the Navy?? So was I. 88-95. Desert Storm. Stolas was great in this episode.

I wonder if the homeless man from the pilot is actually Bliz's father that would be interesting.

19:47 the second hand embarrassment was to much.

23:15 The double lip smack was so funny to me idk XD

As a child, Blitz did not have these white spots on his face and arms..

14:45 PROBABLY BECAUSE HES SCARED U GONNA BEAT ON HIM!! YOU HIT HIM U FUCKIN CRAZY

Perfect

Can't wait for Stella fans to justify this

Is it just me, or does Stolas's singing make me think of a really gay Jack Skeleton? {which isn't a BAD thing for sure! XD}

And if you apply I will hire you...maybe😂

Did they use legit child actors??? Cause they sound like real kids? 😂

If you like anime: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-YZX58fDhebc.html - Ghost in the Shell (1995) My favourite scene ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-33e-i5yPr4E.html - Ghost in the Shell - Making of a cyborg (Opening) 4K It is one of my favorite anime and still holds up, not just because of the incredible animation. This was the true Matrix movie until the (in my eyes) horrible stupid but cool looking hollywood movies came out. Yeah even the first one. Unpopular Opinion, i know.

It was Paimon and Stella's fault. They are terrible. It explains why Stolas slept with Blitz.

18:13 blitzo has marked stolas

What is the significance of those crystals, I wonder.

Poor Stolas he lived his personal hell for 17 years married to Stela. Seriously, this Stela is worse than Amber Heard. I'm glad that after so much abuse our prince has finally freed himself and divorced this thing called Stela. And what a good feeling to see Our Prince defending himself against this cretin, showing that he will no longer put up with any kind of abuse from this Female Monster!

Y si luego de haber robado todo eso a Stolas el padre de Blitzo huyo con el botin y dejo a su familia solos en el circo

Im still to this day surprised there are people that like stella like damn she is a terrible person how can you like someone like that

i want child stolas as a plushie I hate spell check

they didn't retcon shit

This episode is the worst one, a retcon basically Before season 2 it seemed like Blitzo and Stolas were just drunk during some party and got together for one night, Blitzo stole the book but Stolas forgave him and offered an exchange. In pilot Blitzo calls Stolas "priviliged asshole", really? After he felt sympathy towards Stolas and f**ked him out of pity, he now turns into a hater. In episode 2 it seemed like Stella cared about their reputation at least. They could have changed it to Stella being toxic in private, but in public pretend to be a happy queen and tell others about her amazing prince Stolas, and also, Stolas seemed to care about this affair, he tried to calm her down, apologize etc. He can't explain to his daughter what's wrong between them, as if the problem was deeper than "nah yo mama is toxic lol". In episode 5 Stolas acts superior to Blitzo and other imps, like he's the higher race. If he knew Blitzo since childhood he probably wouldn't think like that. And episode 7 perfectly showed that the relationship is not only about f**king, because when it came to them going out, talking, it seemed like there's not much goin on, they don't have anything in common, they don't understand each other. Stolas feels ashamed that people know about this affair, he doesn't defend Blitzo, and Blitzo is disappointed, but he's no better, he invited Stolas only in order to get to the club. This was a lot more complicated before, now it just seems flat "aaaww Stolas is innocent, Stella is evil, Blitzo really cared since the beggining (it's not like it developped)"

if I'm being honest... i was rather disappointed with the portrayal of hte stuff... it's a cliche storm... Arranged marriage partner is a two dimensional arse, and Stella even actively revels in making him miserable. Gay man in unhappy straight relationship. + Implied Love at first sight. (THe moment he sees Blitz for the first time feels very much like that classic moment for that) This isn't meant to sound like hating, but... it feels like there could've been done MORE with it, isntead of using stuff that's been beaten to death, dragged through hell and back, reanimated and beaten to death again. Or at least given a more unique spin. Like, for example, Stolas could've been Demisexual. Meaning he needs an emotional connection for romantic love. Both of htem could've tried to make it work but it just wouldn't work out, so both ended up frustrated by that. And even for Stella there could've been some other side to her instead of "nah, she's just nasty!" Instead of the two being incompatible to begin with, and Stella just being an arse, the two could've tried to make it work, but it didn't work out. This, in turn, begins to have both of them to start growing frustrated. Down the line, Stella migth ahve to take over some of the representative duties Stolas should do, but just has no interest in. Maybe to the detriment of stuff she actually wants to do. Maybe som eother reasons for her to grow increasingly bitter. Maybe Stolas not really being interested in her as part of it? Maybe, which is partially a thing in the episode, Stolas and Stella are seen as a joke by alot of the demon royalty, which pisses Stella off, while Stolas doesn't really care. Which, of course, amplifies her anger at Stolas. Stolas meanwhile misses the emotional support and love he yearns for and just can't get from Stella. Instead it's really just the same old story? And even the portrayal of Blitz's dad is the old "Sells kid for nickle and a dime" abusive parent gag. And then, he wants blitz to rob the place... instead of him just charging a large bill upfront.
