Absolutely incredible show, especially being an animated show of such bizarreness. It allows it to explore stuff in a way that other shows can't. Some of the episodes in season 4 was something else.

 

And the new season is out now so there's something to watch on telly again.

 

Just seen the episode with the summer house and the flash backs to his mother's youth. The lobotomy ending was just :|

 

I love how quickly it escalates to ridiculously heavy.

That's early on in the season isn't it?  The whole season is heavy, but the penultimate episode takes it to a new level and just left me sitting there for a good ten minutes.  I'm not going to issue any spoilers or go into detail for you, but I don't think I'll ever see an episode on a TV show like it again.  It was 10/10.  There's also an episode with Princess Carolyn that's incredibly well done.

 

To be honest, I'm amazed Bojack hasn't got much traction as a show over here in the UK.  Maybe it's because it's only on netflix.  I only stumbled upon it by chance.

I've been meaning to watch it for a while because I really like Will Arnett, tbh I didn't even realise Alison Brie was in it. 

 

It's terrific though. I was expecting something just like Rick and Morty so I'm really thrilled it's got a **** load more depth than that. 

 

Think it's a lot better than R&M tbh.

I actually think BoJack is Will Arnett's best work, which is weird as it's a cartoon, he's great, and it's impossible not to hear the Final Countdown without thinking of where the lighter fluid came from.  But despite it being a cartoon, I think he nails it every time.  I was reading something at the weekend that if they were casting Bojack today, they wouldn't have cast Alison Brie, not because she's not good, but because they'd look for a Vietnamese-American actress.

 

Rick and Morty is great TV, but you can pick it up whenever you want, whatever mood you're in.  I find with Bojack, you've really got to sit down and switch on.

 

By the way, if you like Alison Brie, I recommend watching Glow on netflix.  That's a good watch too.

Binged the entire new season this weekend. A slightly different feel to the previous seasons, but still terrific stuff. Bold, clever, funny writing. Probably the best depiction of depression on the box at the moment and it's lead by a talking horse lol

BoJack is a very special show - it tackles complex issues about depression, self-belief, anxiety and the hardship of relationships; all whilst being very funny, very clever and stacked full of nods to 80s / 90s culture.

 

It's made me laugh a lot, cry a little and has helped me make sense of some issues that I've gone through in the last few years. Very powerful for an animated show.

Only one season of The Sopranos to go. Genuinely don’t want to get the end of it as that’ll be it. Some amazing characters in this show 

I’m rewatching it for the 5th time now, near the end of season 4. It has to be my all-time favourite drama show.
