Why I think that killing off Adam was the biggest mistake Viv could make
TW: ranting and spoilers
This entire blog is just gonna be me going on a rant about my opinion on why I think Adam shouldn't of been killed off and why he shouldn't be killed off so early and shit , not only did I not see it as unnecessary for the plot, but there's so much Vivienne could of done for his character other than just throwing the whole character away in just one season , I'll be listing things for what they could of done for Adam's character
1. Plotholes
I'm just gonna say it right here and right now, Adam was killed off waaay too early and not only would we be left with many many plot holes like, where is both of his sons (Caine and Abel), the potential they could of used for his character, and ect.
2. Character potential
^^this fucking scene^^ , because the thought of when Adam first pulling up and being like "Hello, Adam here!!" Is just so fucking funny to me (just less plagiarized, and more unique)
and maybe his arrival leads to his words "Hell is forever" ,his own song gets used against him sense not only did he have the audacity to go to the hotel to get back into heaven but he has said it himself, how redemption isn't possible
But references aside ,Adam can have some potential for his character, like maybe he not only comes to the hotel not only for the intention of going back to Heaven because he hates being down in hell but also for the intention of plotting some revenge for what the hotel residents all did to him
,but the longer he stays there the less and less he tries to plot his revenge , the more and more he realized how flawed heaven and heaven's people are most of the time, and ect.
And ect. and he's so indenial of it at first and doesn't want to believe it but no matter how much he tries there's no denying it , deep down he knows it's true but he doesn't want to believe it
3. Character potential (again)
Like maybe Adam has become fallen in the first place because not only did him sinning in Heaven eventually catch up to him, but maybe also because after finding out the exterminations were unnecessary after Sir Pentious entered the heavens gates, it was finally time for Adam to take his fall
They can also actually start touching on Adam's trauma and how it affects him, his trauma being : being forced into a relationship the moment he was created (Lilith and Eve) , having to be the father and/or decendant of all of the human race , having been kicked out of the garden after Lucifer has second handedly invented evil into the world , and said evil causing his son to kill his other son(which is his and God's fault also)
Like maybe sense Vivziepop is putting a slight different spin to things to Hazbin hotel, she doesn't really having to follow the entire list (sense it's her show) , she can still do something with some of it and still find a way to bring it up and with that it could be the reason behind how he behaves , his personality as a whole, and why he wears that narcissistic mask (while it doesn't necessarily excuse his actions)
4. Character design
If Adam was to somehow end up coming back as a fallen angel, as a sinner. Viv can find a way to go crazy with his fallen design, like any other cartoonist in this world, I know that those cartoonist has seen fanart and fan creations of their shows, movies, and characters
I've seen my fair share of seeing really really good fallen designs for Adam and I'm fucking here for it , they're all so good
,it just needs to happen
5. Character development & redemption arc
Like mentioned in Character potential 2 , Adam can have some potential for his character, like maybe he not only comes to the hotel not only for the intention of going back to Heaven because he hates being down in hell but also for the intention of plotting some revenge for what the hotel residents all did to him
but the longer he stays there the less and less he tries to plot his revenge , the more and more he realized how flawed heaven and heaven's people are most of the time, and ect.
And ect. and he's so indenial of it at first and doesn't want to believe it but no matter how much he tries there's no denying it , deep down he knows it's true but he doesn't want to believe it . Like maybe Adam just still acts the same but without him realizing it or acknowledging it he's just becoming a better person and maybe even comedically he just thinks that the misfits gave him a disease /illness when that's not the case
Maybe in the next seasons he could even become a better father to his sons, Caine and Abel but similar to Lucifer, let them do their own thing sense those two are basically adults now and hey, Adam could be more like a cool dad
I feel like Adam has more cool dad energy
6. The relationships he'll end up making
Just imagine the relationships Adam slowly but gradually builds during his redemption arc, like maybe him and Charlie ending having like an fun uncle and niece kind of relationship or something, maybe slowly but gradually he becomes like another friend of Angel Dust's, and ect.
As he processes through his redemption arc he can end up making friends and building relationships down in hell , possibly in the near future Charlie, Vaggie, Angeldust, Alastor, Cherri bomb, Husk, Nifty, Razzle, and Lucifer doesn't fight against him but with him if another threat were to come
7. There could be another antagonists that's worse or maybe even a bigger threat than Adam
Maybe another antagonists could be made that's more of a mystery and even a bigger threat than Adam , that's just like Adam (or not) but amp up the bad traits he has, maybe this time Adam could be the one helping the others fight and rebel against this guy in his own way
8. Another musical number
Another musical number with them singing badly about heaven in song in the near future but this time with Charlie ,Vaggie, Angeldust, Alastor, Cherri bomb, Husk, Nifty, Razzle, Lucifer, and most of all Adam but the reprise has a metal spin to it and this time Adam joins in and does it with his guitar
9. Another reason she shouldn't of killed off Adam is because she'd be killing off fat /plus size representation
Another reason I feel like Viv shouldn't of killed off Adam is because she'd be killing of fat character representation and I wouldn't want a chubby character like Adam to be killed off
,of course we have Mimzy now but she doesn't count sense she's just one character and only just one character and as much as I love Mimzy I feel like the show needs more than just one or two fat characters
And for the people that think "He isn't chubby" , try again and look at him again , how he sits , lays down (like how he was laying after her got shanked in his arm by Charlie), and ect.
10. I just want some vulnerable moments with Adam
Whether that be Adam bawling his eyes out, having a panic attack, having a mental/emotional breakdown, or ect. I just want to see a vulnerable side of Adam, Adam angst if you will
Okay I'm done ranting, bye <3 <3

Learn more about sleep’s impact on your learning, memory, immune system and even your genetic code – as well as some helpful tips for getting some shut-eye.
I love how I started out writing a comic book, while thinking I must be cis and pan, and now that I’m nearing the end of it, I’m trans, non-binary, and aroace. Granted, before that I thought I was cishet, and kinda just denying way too many fucking things about myself. Upon admitting them through storytelling, I somehow feel much much gayer. This is probably because I feel more comfortable in my skin now. Thank you for my TEDTalk.
Total Watch Time of the Life Series (Updated)
This is an update from my original post now that Wild Life is over.
I recorded the total watch time for all POV's for each Life Series Season, then the Life Series as a whole to find out how long it truly is.
Third Life is about 3,616.53 minutes or 2 days, 12 hours, 16 minutes, and 32 seconds with each episode being about 36 min and 9 seconds long and having a total of 100 episodes.
Last Life is about 4,634.98 minutes, or 3 days, 5 hours, 14 minutes, and 59 seconds with each episode being about 36 minutes and 47 seconds long and having a total of 126 episodes.
Double Life is about 2,889.22 minutes, or 2 days, 9 minutes, and 49 seconds with each episode being about 36 minutes and 66 seconds long and having a total of 80 episodes.
Limited Life is about 3,446.57 minutes, or 2 days, 9 hours, 26 minutes, and 34 seconds with each episode being about 34 minutes and 7 seconds long and having a total of 101 episodes.
Secret Life is about 6,004.83 minutes, or 4 days, 4 hours, 4 minutes, and 50 seconds with each episode being about 41 minutes and 42 seconds long and having 144 episodes. (Etho combined sessions 8 and 9, but Jimmy had an episode after his death so it balances out)
Wild Life is about 6,095.53 minutes, or 4 days, 5 hours, 35 minutes, and 5 seconds with each episode being about 43 minutes and 32 seconds long and having a total of 140 episodes.
Real Life (If your including it) is about 399.87 minutes, or 6 hours, 39 minutes, and 52 seconds with each episode being about 30 minutes and 45 seconds long and having a total of 13 episodes.
As of writing this, the total run time of the Life Series (excluding Real Life) is about 26,687.66 minutes, or 18 days, 12 hours, 47 minutes, and 40 seconds over the course of 691 episodes. If you are including Real Life, the total run time of the Life Series is about 27,087.53 minutes, or 18 days, 19 hours, 27 minutes, and 32 seconds over the course of 704 episodes. That is over two and a half weeks of non-stop watching, not including adds, loading, bathroom breaks, etc. For reference, the total watch time of One Piece is around 2,6208 minutes, or 18 days, 4 hours, and 48 minutes long. The Life Series is the new One Piece, thanks for coming to my Ted Talk
Y’all hear me out… if stickler and henchman don’t dance together in the new f**king episode when it ever comes out I’m sending a nuke to Netflix’s- like please. Stickler needs to feel loved too 😭 I don’t know if I’m just overstimulated over the thought or that I’m going crazy over the ship. thank you to coming to my Ted talk 🥲
So I have a theory as to why we enjoy angst and our favorite fictional characters getting hurt/sick/etc. Besides the relatability aspect to it, I think it has to do with getting an adrenaline rush without anyone being in actual danger, since we wouldn’t act like this with people we know irl if something happened to them—it’s much like rollercoasters and riding off of a high of thrill without you or your loved ones being in any real peril.
This is my favorite TED talk by Mikhail Kazinik called “The school is dead, long live the school”.
The point of his TED talk is that the school system is not teaching the right way anymore. The school used to teach to create the image of the world, but it now teaches the subjects without associative thinking.
“We shove information into our poor children like bags […] and where do we put the bags after that? To the junkyard. Because the school’s task is to ignite, and not to shove information.”
