Havent been following much but apparently they completely defanged Alastor and made him into fraudulant bitch? Turns out that he didnt make a deal with some sort of mysterious, uber powerful entity that might even border on being eldritch in nature, its just some random bitch that may or may not be a sinner herself (with apparently that much power to share).
Why the fuck modern entertainment just cant help itself? Seems like everytime they have one of those type of mysterious OP chess player characters, be them good or evil, eventually they will get deconstructed and made weaker and pathetic, all disguised as a clever twist and "humanizing" the character.
A large appeal about Alastor was just how in control he was of the situation and hell, for all its faults, S1 at least maintained him a powerful character that could hold its own against Lucifer (if there was a moment to remind us Alastor is sometimes a big fish in a small pond it should have been then but they didnt, soo...) and he also was tricking other big players of Hell so to now just reveal him as not really all that is just another example of irony poisoned subversive modern writing.
People LIKED to see Alastor coming out ontop against the big players of Hell since it really made this WHOLE thing, right down to renovating the Hotel, as part of a big scheme of his while also there being the possibility of a somehow even bigger player that he is serving (tho possibly is also working against secretly).
Oh well, I guess its on the audiences at this point, I suppose.
