...I mean, yeah? you don't think him nearly strangling a woman to death is kind of too far, narratively?
Yeah, it's too far. BoJack has gone too far almost every season at least once, and he wasn't supposed to seem sympathetic there. That was the whole point of Diane calling him out at the premiere after he said "We're all fucked up, so it's ok". There will definitely be people who continue to justify his actions, but BoJack hasn't really been the "good guy" of the show since New Mexico.
We’re not supposed to like him, or other people like him, they’re pouting out a huge cultural issue where people continue to defend terrible actions because they view them in light of a person they connect and sympathize with. It’s a toxic thought process we’re all guilty of..
The entire season was about how uneasy the people who make the show are about the audience sympathizing with Bojack
This show has a really unique and interesting ability to REALLY ramp it up in the last 2-3 episodes of each season. Without fail, the season always ends with 2-3 HOLY SHIT episodes that really get to you
for some reason i laughed really hard when bojack was trying to put all the pieces together and says "what do all these things have in common?" while drawing a line to the picture of Common
I feel bad for laughing at Mr Chocolate Hazelnut Spread in tears in the dressing room. And when he goes on that rant about how alone his dad must be. It’s so funny and sad at the same time. You really just want to hug him.
The robot had the best lines this season "I LOVE IT WHEN YOU CALL ME FATHER" Also this line came out of nowhere: "You ever try one of those '95 zins? Good year for Zinfandels. Bad year for Oklahoma federal buildings."
I admit that I got a bit of... themed episode fatigue halfway through the season, this one seemed like more than usual. It was tough to progress the plot til later in the season because of it, I tend to love the show more when there are less episode-long gimmicks.
I also felt that but I do think that it was intentional, like the themes served to develop Bojack's increasing detachment from reality
Weren't there only 3 "gimmick episodes"? The monologue episode, the therapist episode, and the usual trippy episode 11?
Halloween episode for sure, plus I would count Diane's trip. By no means are any of these bad episodes, most are GREAT episodes, but for the overall flow of the season it takes me out of the actual plot
Yeah, definitely forgot about the Halloween episode. I guess it's all up to personal taste. I thought they added a lot to the season as far as creativity went and didn't mess with the flow or pacing at all.
how old are Princess Carolyn and Mr Peanutbutter that she was an intern and he was married in 1993, and PB is dating someone who was born a year he was married to Katrina yikes, I know Bojack is 54 from Free Churro, I have a hard time getting a sense of how old anyone is on this show; I think Todd is mid 20s and Diane is mid 30s I guess looking for the owner of a blue Tesla people say buying used is actually better for the environment but hey you tried this is from ten minutes with Tim Allen I get that there's a smoke monster but other than that it's Gilligan's Island am I written by Albert Hammond and Diane Warren and originally recorded by Tina Turner and popularized by Ace Of Base because Don't Turn Around I get that they're in a glee club but why are they singing when they're not in the glee club it doesn't seem realistic I'll be on you like Urkel on Laura, will I do that
