Reviews

tomascaffa As most reviewers have already said, this show has an unexpected depth in so many issues such as depression, society, happiness, relationships and meaning of life. At first, I thought it was a typical american sitcom with easy jokes and simple storyline because the half of the first season is like that (I think they're just trying to introduce the characters) but as the story unfolds, the viewer is presented with a representation of flaws in every single character. From the low self-esteem of Bojack to Todd's problem of finding himself and ignoring it by doing nonsense and stupid projects. Undoubtedly, a very interesting show where several conclusions can be made, I strongly encourage you all to watch it and draw your own conclusions about all these issues the show embrace, because that's the most enjoyable part of Bojack Horseman in my opinion.
annabaloo Seriously 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.
bhojrajsapkota-63235 This is one of the best Netflix adult comedy series.
elliest_5 Please excuse the tone of this review, which is more of a love-letter rather than a descriptive evaluation, but I believe that "BoJack Horseman" is a high quality, unique, and groundbreaking show. Here's my ten reasons why, having watched up to season 4 at the point of this review:1. "Slapstick subtext" (not my term - look it up to see the original analysis): What this show does is that it gets the characters to casually drop bits of deep and highly conscious self-psychoanalysis in the most low-key/non-dramatic way. What normally remains in the subtext of a typical drama (e.g. viewers can infer deeper conflicts and emotions from subtle cues in the acting) becomes fully disclosed in the most explicit way and in the most unexpected moment (i.e. no drum-roll, no climax). It's slapstick because it's in-your-face, it's funny because it's unexpected, but it's also highly meaningful.2. It digs really deep. This show tackles the most crucial questions about human existence head-on and it unearths the deepest, most difficultly expressed, feelings/hopes and fears of the characters and of the audience.3. Attention to detail (part I). The creators have paid attention to every little bit of the background of each scene. An obvious rewatchability factor, this element is really impressive. There's hidden jokes and references almost in every frame.4. Attention to detail (part II): Continuity. It's just really well- planned and well-executed. In each episode you will find links and references to episodes even a season or two back, and you will struggle to find even the smallest continuity error (I don't think I've ever noticed any, despite multiple rewatches). They even add little bits of retcon to rectify implausibilities of older episodes and make the show's universe even more consistent. 5. The acting. It's top-notch, the main actors are totally nailing it and there's an impressive cast of guest/recurring actors who are doing an equally good job (I suspect more and more big names will guest star as the show's popularity keeps increasing).6. The music. The creators have an excellent taste, each song selection and each original piece is incredibly fitting and meaningful.7. The humour. (The very fact that I got to point 7 listing this show's strengths before getting to what would be the obvious main quality, is telling within itself). This show is hilarious.8. The tongue-twisters. People say this show is "very punny" and it does indeed include a lot of word-play, but its signature move is the Dr. Seuss-like rhyming tongue twisters. They just add to the show's uniqueness and they are funny and fun to try and repeat.9. The anthropomorphic animals. What I thought might be off-putting before I started watching this show (especially since I have a weird fear of horses) is actually incredibly cleverly done and adds a lot both to the characterisation and to the humour. You quickly get over the implausibility of the premise that this world consists of a mix of humans and human-sized/human-like animals when you think that a lot of people that you know - though not everyone, hence the selective animal...isation - actually remind you of animals (right? think of those Benedict Cumberbatch - Otter memes), not just in terms of physicality but also in terms of character/disposition. The added humour comes from the fact that the animal-like characters have real animal properties and reactions mixed in with their otherwise human behaviour.10. Its take on social issues. No matter where you stand on social issues/ politics (and I happen to stand with the creators on most issues, as far as I can tell) you've got to hand it to the show for throwing in references and making a point about a variety of issues in a low-key, non-patronising way that does not interfere with everything else going on in the plot/humour/character development.I could go on but I'll stop here. Just go watch this already!
