Authors Saving Throw is now trivia and require Word Of God and/or Word of Saint Paul.


* AuthorsSavingThrow: A common complaint about the original comic series was that Happy [[BeAsUnhelpfulAsPossible took far too long]] (almost three whole issues) to tell Nick [[TheReveal that]] [[spoiler: Hailey was Nick's daughter]]. In the TV show, this is revealed at the end of the very first episode, giving Nick a bigger motivation to search for Hailey from the get-go.

* DancingBear: It’s a known fact this show is undoubtedly one of the weirdest shows ever put to television, and it’s impossible to explain the premise without cracking a smirk or thinking WTF: [[RefugeInAudacity a drunk hitman must team up with the imaginary friend of his kidnapped daughter to rescue her from a psychopath dressed as Santa Clause]]. However, this is all a part of its appeal, with detractors considering it AudienceAlienatingPremise while viewers and critics who enjoyed it say it’s SugarWiki/BetterThanItSounds.
