Saul G. @SaulG0onMan Sep 28 Bojack Horseman season 2 elaborates further on its characters, particularly the protagonist BoJack, offering a nuanced and dark portrayal marking a turning point for the show, as seen in the penultimate episode See more Jack K @twistedmazeboi Sep 12 This season is a major increase in quality from the previous season and does a great job and getting you hooked to the storyline and making lots of characters very likable. This season also starts exploring more of the themes of depression and regret and makes the show feel like its not just a comedy anymore. See more Kevin P @RT55971421 02/23/2025 A stellar improvement over Season 1! So many great subversion and deconstruction of typical Hollywood happy ending tropes like finding love, getting the dream job, saving the world, etc. The show has great humor and a nice contrast as the season starts off cozy and hopefully before pulling the rug with some harsh emotional twists by the end as BoJack takes such a dark path once his good life starts crumbling in the pursuit of happiness no matter how many people he hurts in the process since he refuses to back down until everyone pushes him away. Episode 1 "Brand New Couch" A solid intro into BoJack starting his dream job with a brand new attitude on his 1st day on set at Secretariat. Great running gag with "What are you doing here?". There was a funny flashback "Can someone put some alcohol into my mouth?" followed by Beatrice's chilling yet oddly sincere in a messed up way statement to Bojack "You were born broken. It's your birthright. You're BoJack Horseman. There's no cure for that". Episode 2 "Yesterdayland" Great episode introducing us to new love interest Wanda, who's very charming as a romantic foil to BoJack and is adorably played by Lisa Kudrow. Todd's Disneyland subplot was hilarious with a great twist on the legal loophole of how his theme park's name avoids copyright. Great line about the age of stagnation from Kelsey about Bojack, Wanda, and unintentionally Diane. Episode 3 "Still Broken" Good aftermath episode about Herb's funeral. Herb is such a nice and supportive person in the flashbacks and there's some decent character development with the Horsin' Around crew. Episode 4 "After the Party" Nicely paced episode that sheds light on each of the three leads and their romantic relationship issues . Episode 5 "Chickens" Bizarrely funny episode about how the BoJack universe gets their meat food in a world full of talking animals. Episode 6 "Higher Love" Solid episode about saying the L word for the first time when dating and an amusingly Dark subplot about erotica asphyxiation. Episode 7 "Hank After Dark" Very insightful and poignant episode about Hollywood sexual predators escaping justice thanks to the system that benefits them. The fee has aged very well with its themes and planted the seeds for Mr. Peanutbutter and Diane's gradual drift apart. Episode 8 "Let's Find Out" Solid episode about BoJack and Mr. Peanutbutter sorting out through their differences with some great gags about their bizarre game show and Daniel Radcliffe's hilarious guest star parody of himself. Episode 9 "The Shot" Getting the perfect shot in the white house Episode 10 "Yes and" Breakup with Wanda after Dianne moves in after being disappointed by Cordova and BoJack being disappointed by Secretariat being ruined (ahead of its time with AI replacing actors) as they enable each other and push Wanda away (also great contrast with Wanda's toxic positivity clashing with BoJack's toxic negativity). Great line from Wanda about how "When you look at the world through rose-colored glasses, all the red flags just look like flags". Episode 11 "Escape from L.A." Infamous Episode that harrowing subverts the self-discovery plot with how far BoJack will go to be selfish in his quest for happiness at other people’s expense Episode 12 "Out to Sea" Nice resolution to everyone's downward spiral and the first time BoJack actually shows genuine appreciation for Todd after his hilarious escape from his improv cult. Princess Carolyn gets a nice win with her new agency company and Mr. Peanutbutter does a sweet gesture for Diane. The episode ends with a great lesson of "It gets easier, but you gotta do it every day. Thats the hard part." From the recurring background character Baboon jogger.

See more David W @RT91245001 02/04/2024 BoJack Horseman's second season really gets into the story's main groove. The season is sufficiently episodic that a newly viewing friend can easily watch a couple of episodes and pick up on the story while, at the same time, the show leans into the serialized and deep storytelling that longtime fans love. I would definitely watch this season again. See more Read all reviews
