Vees clip, though there isn't much here that they haven't already shown.
Velvette's VA continues to struggle with holding an English accent.

Rather hear that than Aussie Cherri.
Charlie and Vaggie clip that has to throw in her calling Charlie "babe" to remind people they're supposed to have any kind of romantic chemistry.

First off, what the fuck is up with Charlie's face at the end? That's something I wanna punch, not laugh.
Anyways, dear Lord, that section where Vaggie discusses her new name made me wince at all of the voice replacements.
- Stephanie sounds sooooo bored and gives the same flat delivery regardless of the situation.
- Not only does Blake make Angel sound too feminine to the point where that's as if that's all to him, isn't he suppose the oldest of the 3? He's in his 30s, late 30s at that, with Vaggie and Cherri being in their 20s, or at least 20 coded if Vaggie isn't human, yet he sounds like a teen going through puberty.
- An Australian accent doesn't fit Cherri... at all.
With how inconsistent her accent is I thought her being British might have been a last second addition only done after the actor was hired, kind of similar to how Cherri wasn't Australian until after the pilot lines were recorded, but no it was in the sheets.
I did some digging, and it looks like Izzi from Zoophobia having a relationship with Cherri predated ADDICT. Descriptions noted him having an Australian accent, so I guess that's where Cherri being Aussie came from? Viv's workaround was to have either Cherri slip the accent out occasionally or do it lightly like her audition sheet instructed to explain why she didn't have one in the pilot, but because the pilot isn't an official part of the show, Viv must've said "Screw it" and had Krystina do a thick ass accent, which is so distracting, especially since she isn't Australian. Doesn't help the last Helluva Boss episode that came out before Hazbin S1 focused on an Australian who was voiced by an actual Aussie, which for some reason they felt the need to hype up long before Mammon was revealed to be it.
It's funny how Valentino's VA also can't keep his accent consistent, at this rate Viv should have just wrote them to not have actually been British and Latino, and just decided to pick up the accents for style points or something.
Didn't they say Val's inconsistent accent is because he's "code-switching"? And even though Joel's Latino, that's not what Viv intended when writing Val, even though I could've sworn they confirmed he was Salvadoran, and someone had had to quickly clarify he and Vaggie weren't related. Viv said that Val was the hardest to cast, and only brought in Joel who she knew from Western Energy after being unable to find an actor for him.
