Your Pretty Face Is Going to Hell is an American television series on Cartoon Network's late night programming block, Adult Swim. The series made its official debut on April 18, 2013, on Adult Swim. The show is 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.
On May 12, 2016, the show was renewed for a third season,[1] which premiered on October 23, 2016.[2]
