It is a great show with lessons and it shows that not all rich people are happy
... View MoreSeriously though. Best show currently on television. At first, I thought it was another cartoon for adults only with poor drawings. But it's not. It's different. For one, the jokes are funnier and the sads are sadder. The first season starts out more of a plain funny show, but beware this show will break your heart if you stick with it. It is also a really clever show - I'm sure that I'm not smart enough to catch all the references but sometimes I get the jokes and that feels good. Also, this show may be one of the depictions of depression on TV and movies ever.
... View MoreBojack Horseman is one of the most brilliant shows I have ever seen.It's witty,clever and heck it is also very depressing.Some episodes made me feel like choking with guilt.The characters are excellently voice acted and I liked Aaron Paul's voice of Todd Chavez.I love to see a happy ending for Bojack which may not happen any time soon :( .Animal puns are too clever and find myself laughing every time.I request everyone not to miss this gem of an animated show and watch it now.The main character Bojack...Horseman obviously is so relatable.This story tells you that money doesn't bring happiness nor any thing in life,It is to be accepted,experienced within you.Can't wait to re watch it and break into tears.
... View MoreThis show is funny, heartbreaking, and endlessly insightful. It is full of silly animal puns and dark, soul crushing looks into the existential nightmare we all collectively share navigating this thing called life. Will Arnett is an unbelievably talented voice actor, bringing the titular character to life and making him endlessly relatable and empathetic even though Bojack could easily be played as a hopeless, narcissistic monster. The rest of the cast is equally fantastic. You love these characters. You want to hold them and protect them from the vapid void of Hollywood but at the same time you realize that even though these stories are set in an atmosphere so removed from your own life, these stories are painfully familiar. You want to help them because they are you. But at the same time, this show never falls into the trap of casting its characters as clear heroes or villains. That determination is left up to the audience. Every character is fully formed. Shown to have good and evil desires, and their choices, and their actions are yours to interpret and judge. The show is rife with puns, visual gags, and layered jokes and it gets funnier on every re-watch (much like Arnett's other vehicle Arrested Development). If anything about this show is turning you off, please ignore that instinct and give this show a chance. I am so annoyed at myself for waiting so long to get into it and so glad I did. It is incredibly entertaining and incredibly thought provoking. You will walk away having experienced something more akin to fine art than a cartoon with anthropomorphic animals.
