I only watched 3 episodes of this yet and I can't say if this is a parody or a drama.

It's the dram equivilant of a sitcom where there's a baseline state it always bounces back to after stretching it in one direction. You could say it's committed to being normal.
>there's a baseline state it always bounces back to
did you even watch the show? this is what bojack thinks, not how sad horse show actually works. bojack thinks his antics don't have consequences but they always do, sometimes seasons later
It runs in a cycle and they just rant it for as many seasons as they could get away with to keep themselves in work.
I don't really see how this invalidates what I said
it's made clear again and again that bojack thinks reality works like in horsin' around. this is either a coping mechanism or just a result of his alcoholism and drug abuse
There aren't complex consequences of the plotlines in this show. Stuff comes in and then goes when it's been used up, like the owl chick. Sarah Lynn dying seems like an exception, but she only appeared a couple of times so it's not like there's a huge difference between "before" and "after" this event.
true. bojack also gets away with a lot of shit, but that might be because he's rich
agreed
>bojack also gets away with a lot of shit, but that might be because he's rich
It rarely invokes this idea. Shit just happens and then goes away. How often does Bojack use his wealth to solve problems or how often does he get unasked for favors from people trying to curry favor? He's a has-been.
>true. bojack also gets away with a lot of shit, but that might be because he's rich
That's literally why. He's rich and famous and people love him.
Woops
That's a sexy Daria. Too bad she got fat.
watch F is for Family or Moral Orel instead, this is just Californians patting each other's backs
The first season is notoriously inconsistent and you should consider sticking it through until the end of season 1 and go from there
I understand not liking Bojack but your description of the show is inaccurate which makes me think you didn't actually watch it. Plus your suggestions to an alternative are pretty shitty and unsatisfying.
I was extremely indifferent about the show the first few episodes. Show doesn’t really get its footing until the middle of season 1 or a little after that.
It’s a good show. For me, the hardest part was an episode where a character says “suck a dick, dumbshits” a few times over in an episode.
There’s lots of waifus too.
Get of the internet, Martin Scorsesse.
The main thing that pisses me off is that the cat isn't even 1% as sexy as the cat from Infinity Train. Put me right off.
Yeah, it's weird how ugly they made Princess Carolyn. Every other woman in the show, Human or furry, looks cute or pretty, and so do lots of the furry guys. Mr. Peanutbutter is a handsome dude, but they make PC look like someone's 80 year old grandma. Cats are adorable, there's literally no way you could make a cat character ugly unless you're actively trying. Maybe they were.
Yeah, that's the point. Her biological clock is ticking and she wants a big family
I felt the way you did and kept watching and I regret it. You should drop it. Literally the entire show is whiney despondent hipster "I'm depressed so I'm downward spiraling and downward spiraling makes me depressed" forever.
Imagine how based this show could of been if Bojack ran off with Penny instead of getting caught fooling around in the fricking driveway and they went around the country fricking shit up like Bonnie and Clyde.
Of course that would be too alpha for the self hating low t writers, but still fun to imagine 🙂
I mean this is basically what happens when bojack and sarah lynn go on that bender. until she dies of course
that was the first time I cried as an adult watching a cartoon
You're a pussy as homie for crying, but that scene was still pretty rough. It definitely gets you emotionally invested and really hit close to home for me personally.
There's a lot more going on under the surface that you might not catch at first. I was surprised at how deep the show could get at times. There's a lot of social commentary that shits on hollywood and celebrity culture, which I can respect. They also really go all out with the wordplay and background gags.
There's also a lot of pretty clever visual metaphor. Pic related.
The show gets a lot better in the 2nd and 3rd seasons. If you aren't sold on the show after seeing the drug trip episode (S1E11), though, Bojack might just not be the show for you.
In a better era of Cinemaphile I would think this is some expert bait
I get where you're coming from, since my post is not a far cry from, "You guys just don't get it!" But I really do think there's a lot the show has to offer that got totally overlooked by the majority of its viewers.
I mean, when they pull shit like this:
?t=67 (From s1)
?t=29 (s4)
I can't not appreciate the writing a bit more than its contemporaries.
Sorry but these clips are cringe
I was mainly referring to the lines, "Where do you/the stars go?" to show the parallel between bojack's fantasy and reality.
Also, "They're (stars) still there, we just can't see them because the sun (see: son) is shining so brightly."
Like come on, that's clever as hell.
That's not clever its obvious Hollywood is fake? Wooooah sooo deep and original.
I gotta say, this scene fricking broke me.
Kinda wish he hung out with these horse bros instead of going back to his mom's house
I still don't understand this scene even after seeing it multiple times
Care to elaborate?
You can't judge Bojack after 3 episodes, it starts like a comedy about Charlie Sheen. Give it time.
>that episode that deals with beatrice's dementia
REGULAR
I thought the first episodes were pretty bad but it picked up steam by the middle of the season. Give it until The Telescope. If you're not sold by then you probably won't be later either.
It should have ended with season 4.
*mogs your shit show*
It's a parody that turns into a drama for a few key moments.
