Your Pretty Face Is Going to Hell Funny Bits
Only live action short that should be on AS
Warning: Spoilers
I have been quite critical of the fact that AS has live action shows. To me the whole point is to have adult cartoons. However, when I came across this, I found it instantly funny. Compared to eric andrea show, and Tim and Eric, this is actually funny And even compared to some of those out there cartoons they show on their late night super stoners, this actually has a plot and good acting. I was disappointed that they have only made 7 episodes and haven't seen anything since. I am now hearing that it may be another year before more episodes come out. Like most networks even adult swim falls to that age old truisim, If its good they cancel it, if it sucks it gets green lit for 3 seasons

Almost makes you want to go to Hell.
I love this show. The writer and/or creator's interpretation of Hell is hilarious. Eddie Pepitone playing himself cracks me up every time. Sometimes it gets a bit gross but not enough to stop being funny. It's a shame that this show isn't a half hour. Even though I like most of these short shows, I never liked the short format. Anyway, one of the best AS originals. Watch it.

Always delivers in the oddest way.
Warning: Spoilers
Adult swim on Sunday nights is the greatest experience I have ever had losing sleep on the start of a work week. This show lampoons the corporate work environment, religion, pop culture and everything in between set in the modern Christian projection of Hell. Not for the squeamish or those without a sense of humor. The character Gary, (with one R, not 2) Is one of the most like-able characters on television. I look forward to ending my weekend with a laugh, and this is an awesome way to end the weekend and start the work week. If you like Downton Abby, South Park, or Fox News, you're going to hate this show, but if you like the strange experimental humor that is quirky then Adult Swim has a place at the table left open for you.

Awesome show. Great acting. A must view for comedy lovers.
Awesome show! I have never seen the acting of Henry Zebrowski (the actor who plays Gary, the main character) but I was amazed at his abilities and the subtle movements and faces he makes that really sells the jokes. The back up cast of Matt Servitto (the devil), Dana Snyder (Gary's old roommate)and Craig Rowin (Gary's intern) really complete the ensemble of excellence this show has achieved in my eyes. I am a huge fan of the work of Dana Snyder, and it is great to see him on the screen as a person, rather that a squid, a milkshake, or some weird programmer in a viking hat (code monkeys). I really hope this show lasts for more than one season, and that Henry Zebrowski gets the recognition he deserves out of it. The first episode I watched about 5 times in a row, and didn't get sick of it. I was fiending for episode two and was not disappointed when it finally came to air. I am now eagerly awaiting episode 7, and will loyally follow this show till it's end.

Hell Hath No Fury Like a Workplace Comedy
Speaking as someone who never warmed up to Adult Swim's live action shows, Your Pretty Face is Going to Hell is a gem that makes me laugh without fail every time I watch it.
No two episodes ever feel the same, the acting is hilarious, and the over the top special effects are great (most notably the spider creature that appears from time to time). Henry Zebrowski's portrayal as the oafish demon Gary reminds me of so many people I've met in my life. Gary is a lovable loser who never gets lucky but by God (or in this case by devil) do I find myself rooting for him. Opposite of Gary there's Claude, played by Craig Rowin. Claude acts as Gary's antithesis. He's sharp and cunning and constantly trying to better his position in the office, sometimes at the expense of his fellow demonic co-workers. I like the chemistry between Gary and Claude on the show, I feel that they're very organic and relatable to anyone who has ever worked in an office.
However, Matt Servitto's portrayal as the head honcho Satan makes this show for me. My father worked in corporate and was in charge of a lot of people. Throughout my life I saw glimpses of his work life and annoyance/happiness with his employees. Servitto's performance reminds me soooo much of the way my father behaved. Just his unimpressed facial expressions and the way he stares at his employees gets me rolling with laughter. I do realize that this is a very personal opinion, but I think anyone who's ever had a strict boss can relate to Servitto's Satan.
The only downside to Your Pretty Face is Going to Hell is its run time. I would really like to see it lengthened to thirty minutes. Some would argue that it is best suited for a small run time, but I think it has the potential to spread its leathery, bat like wings and expand.
To sum it up, Your Pretty Face is Going to Hell is a unique comedy with no equal. I highly recommend it.

I LOVE this show!!!
I am so happy there is another season of this show, it's really FUNNY! There are so many tag lines, I love Matt Servitto as Satan, he really nails it - AHA! I like everyone one this show. I wish it was longer than 12 minutes. This show is the only reason I watch Adult Swim, until there are new Squidbillies. Even though the name is a mouthful the premise is hilarious and I like that Gary is nice, I don't remember what he did to go to hell, maybe they haven't explained that yet. This is one of the few shows I would actually buy the DVD set of, its pretty quirky and I love Gary's mistakes - Hail Satin!! I guess its kind of like The Office only in Hades and everything is on fire and the other workers are just trying to not get tortured, but there are so many opportunities for jokes, and the elevator is always full of scary things that come running out at you and of course you have to scan an ID to get the elevator to come to your floor and the ID machine will only read your card after the 700th time you scan it. This show is FUNNY!!

Fun stuff
I just finished binging this during my free Hulu trial and really enjoyed it. Very creative and gets funnier as it goes along. My only confusion is I could've sworn Satan was being played by Brendan Fraser, and actually looked it up on IMDB to verify it, only to find I was wrong. But it's a terrific idea and I kept expecting it to get old fast but stayed funny throughout.

Arguably the best show on Adult Swim
I don't know where the hater gets his idea that this is garbage nor do I know how this can be called a sample of GOP politicking since the show was around before the last election. Some people just have to find a way to politicize even the most absurd things I guess. All I do know, for sure, is this is one great episode after another. Gary, very ably played by Henry Zebrowski makes this show pop with his perfect timing and delivery. Claude, is another great character. He's Gary's intern and he is constantly undermining Gary and sucking up to Satan, to no avail. Satan by the way is played by Matt Servitto . He does a superb job. There are several episodes that stand out and I honestly can't think of a miss in any of them. The only problem I have with this show is that it only runs for roughly 12 minutes. I could absolutely watch this show everyday and never get bored with it. I eagerly await the next season.

I'm not in Hell watching this...
Another clever witty 15 min romp from the best network a 40 year old kid could find. The main character is a lovable screw up that reminds us of a lot of " fat guy" characters from the past but he brings his own persona to the table in Hell and kills it. The rest of the cast are so much fun to watch you actually want more than the 15 minutes allotted. There is nothing else like it right now and you can see it developing and getting better each episode.
I know several other viewers currently willing to sign over their souls to Adult Swim pending they make more episodes.

You BETTER WATCH that POTTY MOUTH before you end up being SATAN's TOILET!! :O
This show is DISGUSTInG, GROSS, Horrible FX and make-up, cheap sets, and not the greatest actors, BUT that just makes it EVEN FUNNIER!! :D Got hooked on these little shorts years ago when they 1st came out and I LOVE THEM!!!
As a very little girl, I imagined the Devil cooking people in a huge skillet with a large spatula. :o That's what growing up Catholic does to you. So this show feeds into my childlike ideas of what to expect if YOU ARE BAD when I was 4 to 7 years old. And it's hilarious now as an adult, having 1st hand accounts of how really HORRIBLE and EVIL A LOT of People on this Earth Really ARE!! :O So it's a joyous escapism. But this is NOT a Show for the little ones.

Funny as hell!
This show has made me chuckle in every single episode at least once, and that makes it worthy to me.

Laugh Out Loud Funny
Definitely one of the finest, most consistently hilarious American comedies in the history of television. It betters 'The Office' for best workplace comedy and also succeeds as an amazing horror comedy; YPFIGTH didn't run long enough. Adult Swim badly need to bring this one and The Venture Bros. Back!

AMAZING SHOW. So Unique and Intelligent
I absolutely love this show. I get that technically an Rating of 7.6 is really good, great even but somehow it seems far to low for a show of this quality with this much going for it. It's one of those shows that are so well written and acted that you just don't get tired of it. But this one goes even further joining some elite company in my book, I have probably watched every season so far 15 times in a row (I'm not exaggerating) every time I finish it all I wanna do is start it again. There has only ever been 2 shows that I can replay basically indefinitely and not get tired of it, this show is one and the other is Archer. What I love about it is they aren't afraid to poke fun at the silliness and non sense related to religion and christianity specifically. They bring up and point out the errors and mistakes of christianity and it's bible in a subtle way. It's just a fabulous show that being a show with such short episodes makes every second count and packs a lot into those 12 minute episodes. If you read this and the other comments and you still don't go watch it I don't know what is wrong with you lol.

And a half
This came up when I was searching for something. Watched 1 episode( was sick of looking for an hour) and thought it's ok I'll come back later if I don't find anything. .. So, again last night ... I ended up watching all but like 4 episodes! I do still think it's stupid in parts but I really like it! The episodes are super short too which I like( don't need a 45 min show unless it's a slow building Drama. I feel it's more of a guys show( I'm female) but I do like a lot lot of shows that probably are. Gary was a god choice for the lead. Idk why but I kept thinking it kind of reminded me of Silicon Valley( another show I put off for a long time that I ended up really liking). Going to finish tonight then search again forever for something. Sigh...

Give this show the recognition it deserves
This show is the when package. Writing, visuals, acting. It is a straight up surreal experience. It gives me mighty boosh vibes as far as really bringing you into another reality. With so much great content being made this show is one of the few that I will go back and continuously rewatch all the episodes consistently.

Hilarious!
I was on the lookout for a new show to get into and decided to give this a try on Hulu. After adjusting to the sheer grossness off life in Hell, the comedy comes fast and strong!
Matt Servitto stands out as Satan giving an Emmy caliber performance if I ever saw it.
Think The Office...set in Hell...but funnier.

Best short comedy series I have ever watched!
I'll sum it up in one word - hilarious! A+ for originality. Put together a Halloween costume with the shirt, dockers, shoes, some mismatched horns and don't forget the red shiat... I can't seem to find any merch for the show? bobble heads and t-shirts. Tell me who the hell I need to pay. You guys are missing out on millions maybe even billions!

Great
Warning: Spoilers
Love the show I must have watched the Marathon on the adult swim channel about 20 times can't wait for another season. I was surprised to see all the actors are veterans or been in a lot of stuff. I think that's what makes the show better.
