This is interesting to me. You say you're trying to see it as a showatcher, but it seems clear to me that you are looking at it from a bookreader offended by changes. Because:

1. You assume that watchers have a long enough memory to remember Violet, her appearance, name, and role.
2. The woman being hunted is not Violet. Her name is Tansy, and this was her first and last appearance.

So that scene was explicitly there to introduce the concept that he hunts innocent women and has his dogs eat them alive while he watches gleefully. Yet you say that the showrunners are trying to make him likeable?

As far as being badass, I think that was more to establish that he is dangerous, because he's a villain.

As far as pretty boy, the internet's definition of pretty expands and contracts as needed. Fit, decently-groomed, healthy-looking young men are almost universally considered attractive on the internet, when it suits someone to claim that the media only represents pretty people.
