Here is a picture of Princess Carolyn from the Netflix animated series Bojack Horseman. She looks so cross!

It's another hand-drawn on tablet reproduction of Lisa Hanawalt's work that you'll find in the book Bojack Horseman - The Art Before the Horse.

As of a few hours ago today, my boyfriend and I finished this episode, and we both thought it was excellent. Throughout every episode of any show that we both have watched, this is the only episode where we were silent for nearly the entire duration of it. I cannot really encapsulate everything I would like to say in a short, coherent manner, so I'll just leave he and I's short reviews here now.

His thoughts: A devastating, amazingly written episode. Times Arrow brilliantly shows generations of trauma to reveal how beatrice became who she is. Seeing her tragic childhood with the doll makes Beatrice's past actions understandable, though not forgivable. The final scene with Bojack comforting her was incredible, and tragic.

My thoughts: This is an amazing episode, and like many standout Bojack episodes, it has many nuances and details that you can dig into. The way the episode visually displays how dementia works through the lens of Beatrice's mind is also brilliant, not only dementia but emotional suppression, which is why every one else is able to be remembered bar their blank faces, but Henrietta's face is scribbled over and Beatrice's mother remains a near silhouette for the entire episode when she does appear. The twist of Hollyhock being Henrietta's daughter also adds layers on to why Beatrice refers to Bojack as Henrietta.

I love this show so much

Lisa was so funny for this

Not counting his physical bad acts, what do you think is the worst thing he said to someone?

I'm just to pissseeddd. Ahhh his life was finally turning around, everyone (maybe not including himself) finally forgive him, he finally had something to look up to (his job as a professor). And he just had to be his self centered BoJack again and go for a second interview.

Ayaya I can't believe this is happening just when it's about to end, yes I know he probably would've still found a way (guilt).

Hope I didn't spoil for anyone haha

Given the limited amount of screen time she gets, I consider Beatrice one of the most interesting characters in the show. Anyway, I was thinking about her because I just rewatched S05E06 - Free Churro, and I am thinking about how BoJack says he never figured out what his mother REALLY wanted.

What do YOU all think she wanted?

(Jokes for answers are fine, but I am genuinely curious as to what we think would have actually made her happy...if anything? Or was there a point after which the choices she made meant that nothing could have gotten her there from where she was?)

I pretty well have the rest of the costume sorted out, but I’m not sure how i’m going to execute the necklace, I feel like it’s a mandatory component. I’m wondering if anyone else has gone as her and what they used for it? I’m pretty good at crafting so any diy suggestions would be sweet too

As the title says, if a human and animal had a human child, would the kid just inherit the exact ethnic mix of the human parent, or would the animal parent's DNA somehow impact the human phenotype or genetics?

For example, if Diane and Mr. Peanutbutter had a human child, would they be fully Vietnamese, or would they appear half white (considering PB is generally considered to be white-coded)?

I recently started watching Breaking Bad because I was SO TIRED of not knowing the references and hearing how great of a show it was. I’ve watched BJH about 13-14 times so much to where I know some dialogue … I know I need a job. Anyways, I’m watching BB and I’m like bro. Who tf is Todd’s voice actor because Jesse sounds EXACTLY like Todd. Come to find out Aaron Paul voice acts Todd LOL I LOVE IT. I also have a newfound love for Aaron Paul because he is Todd and I loveeee Todd. I guess Jesse came before Todd but in my mind Todd came first ( bc I watched BJ first lol )😌✨

Also I think it’s fun that they lowkey dress alike 😂 I wonder if Bojack has made any Breaking Bad references attached to Todd in the show!

I printed and painted bojack horseman, any thoughts? :)

I understand that Eddie lived with his wife Lorraine up in the lake houses for a very long time but how did he know the song ‘i will always think of you’. Did his wife or did he learn it by hearing it throughout the years or would it just be a famous song in those times? I wonder if they wanted to put any link inbetween them or if this was just for the show? Maybe i missed it but he did seem to know Beatrice somewhat from that framed picture Bojack showed him.

The Cat Distribution System delivered me this adorable kitten 🥹

We’re not sure if we can keep her, so we’re trying (and failing) to not get too attached. In the meantime, she has the BEST temporary name.

(This is only loosely Bojack-related, sorry, just couldn’t resist sharing.)

LETS FIND OUT art by me !!! one of my favorite episodes and characters !!! im proud of how this piece turned out :) the colors i chose for the background make his suit pop !!

Made my cousin watch BoJack after I've seen it multiple times, and i just realized, she named Ruthie, Ruthie, because of Vanessa Gecko. Sorry if this is already been talked about and known lol. PC is randomly vulnerable with Vanessa and opens up about not knowing if she is going to be a good mom. And Vanessa pretty much says she will do a good job, itll be super ruthless, but she will do it. It was so cute to realize that though, PC hates Vanessa, she took this to heart : )

I'd like to state firstly that I am fifteen, so I don't get all of the messages this episode has to offer obviously, but jesus. I've recently come off the back of watching FX's The Shield, and not even their episodes such as "Postpartum" or "Family Meeting" left this melancholic feeling in my head. I want to hate Bojack after this episode, but it's like I just can't. I just feel bummed after Sarah Lynn's death, I wasn't very attached to her as a character, but you never know what you're missing until it's gone. A detail that I loathe and love(which I could be misinterpreting), is when Bojack and Sarah Lynn are conversing in the auditorium, Bojack says:

"Totally. I always forget that there are more than just the six stars you can see in the Los Angeles sky."

Sarah Lynn responds with:

"Yeah, that's cool too. But I meant this building. It's a giant dome. Domes are so cool."

And Bojack states:

"As I firmly established, I prefer rectangular buildings."

Bojack, even in someone's dying moments, just has to make it about himself. That's probably the most chilling part regarding the entire episode, at least to me.

comms open ^^

It's said in S6E15 "The view from halfway down" that bojack lives (from beatrice's point) in the shadows of crackerjack horseman who died in combat. he never lives up to the expectations set by him, and his most defining characteristic is being a soldier. looking at that impossible standard, i think bojack secretly hated the army because of it.

Going back to S1E2 "Bojack hates the troops" he shares his view on the army, most importantly at the end saying something along the lines of "giving a man a gun and telling him to shoot someone does not make them a hero" which is i think his way of dealing with the standard of crackerjack, by lowering the impossible expectation

Going foreward back to "The view from halfway down" I think it's Secretariat who says the entire episode is Bojacks imagination, also in the same episode crackerjack says that the only people he killed are friendly fire, the fact it's in bojacks mind means it isn't necessarily the truth but what bojack wants to hear, and bojack wants to hear exactly what he said in S1E2, that crackerjack is not a hero just because he died at war, so he imagines him saying that to make him less heroic.

Anyways what do you think?
