A humanoid horse, BoJack Horseman -- lost in a sea of self-loathing and booze -- decides it's time for a comeback. Once the star of a '90s sitcom, in which he was the adoptive father of three orphaned kids (two girls and a boy). The show was the hottest thing around, then suddenly, was canceled. Now 18 years later, BoJack wants to regain his dignity. With the aid of a human sidekick and a feline ex-girlfriend who is his agent, he sets out to make it happen. But Hollywood is vastly different from those days, and getting used to stuff like Twitter may take some time. This first animated series from Netflix -- with plenty of references to sex, drugs and alcohol -- is not for the little ones.

Maeve McDermott USA Today If you're looking for a compelling-enough reason to start watching an animated comedy about a horse instead of the other critically-acclaimed series sitting in your watchlist, it's "Hank After Dark." Nov 16, 2015 Full Review Sonia Saraiya Salon.com Truly, I cannot entirely explain it; and yes, it might be better stoned. But it is a reminder of the gorgeous possibility of animation, the seductive pull of a world with different rules-even for us lonely, disaffected, cynical adults. Nov 16, 2015 Full Review Ian Crouch The New Yorker [It] makes eccentric use of the best innovations in contemporary television comedy: finely tuned and obsessively curated throwaway jokes and gags; unexpected allusions to high and low culture; clever continuity and layers of self-reference. Aug 18, 2015 Full Review Randy Dankievitch TV Over Mind There's not a lot of excitement to be had in "Brand New Couch," despite the titillating title; however, as a reintroduction in Boj's world, it does well to establish some of the themes to be explored through the season. Mar 11, 2020 Full Review Daniel Kurland Den of Geek Watching BoJack, both the character and the series evolve, is a marvelous, honest experience, and its second season is a worthy addition to the show's library. Rated: 4/5 Feb 28, 2020 Full Review Chris Cabin Collider This tonnage of sardonic yet quasi-sincere encounters and connections only intermittently aspires to belly laughs... but it's unerringly fascinating, clever, and beguiling in its emotional resonance.

Kevin P 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. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/23/25 Full Review Martin D Season one wasn't the best but season 2 they knew what they were doing This season is a really good one in fact I've heard it's 1 of the best ones you can watch It is a really good season with great episodes that are explaining a lot Rated 4 out of 5 stars 12/21/24 Full Review Gil R It’s insane how much of an improvement this season was compared to its predecessor. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 11/20/24 Full Review Santino P This season is incredible, we can see the development of our favorite horse, we meet new characters and old ones too, new problems come to Bojack's life, alcohol, depression and drugs, without a doubt a season that shows us what life is, of the horse with one of the darkest stories on TV Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/19/24 Full Review David W 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. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/21/24 Full Review Gol B This is a masterpiece Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/08/23 Full Review Read all reviews
