BoJack Horseman Season 2 now on Netflix!

Yay, it’s here! I’m 5 episodes in. Favorite line so far:

“You think Drew Barrymore doesn’t have a frolicking meadow? That is the dumbest thing I’ve ever heard.”

Really, nobody else watches this show? It’s fantastic.

I enjoy the show, even though I’ve never quite been able to figure out why it works. I guess because the entire idea works just fine without all the crazy anthropomorphic animals and other such things.

I’ve got lots of friends who are die-hard fans.

I can’t figure it out myself. :confused:

It works for me because I think the jokes are very funny. Well, some of the jokes are very funny: I think it’s somewhat hit-or-miss but on average it’s quite good.

My only criticism of Season 2 is that it seems to have some “filler” episodes which don’t have much to do with BoJack and the movie he’s starring in.

I loved the first season. I’m not sure if I can watch the second. I was not expecting such depressing episodes by the end of the first.

I do want to find out what happened with Nick and his job at the business factory.

I’m on the last (I think) episode from the first season. I’m not sure that I find it especially funny but it is oddly compelling. The fact that the episodes connect probably helps a lot – if they were stand alone, I’d be less inclined to see what’s next.

Really? What was depressing about them?

I don’t think humor is any good if it doesn’t get a little dark. Dark, depressing stuff is the kind of stuff that needs the light of humor shone on it the most. That said I don’t even think this show is that dark, but it is hilarious.

Do you mean Vincent Adultman? I’m not a fan of how he turns out.

I came here to laugh, not to feel.

Finally watched the show (I missed the first season when it came out as well). What an utterly amazing achievement to create one of the emotionally demanding, yet at times incredibly emotionally rewarding, shows on television today and it’s about a talking horse. It’s definitely in my Top 10 shows on the air (so to speak) at the moment. I don’t think I’ve seen a show that deals with depression in such an honest way. And interestingly, it seems like it switched from being a comedy with dramatic elements to the opposite - a drama with comedy elements, and it did so brilliantly.

Yes, it’s interesting how they followed the exact same pattern of Season 1 - Half of the season is episodic surreal sitcom, with things getting back to the status quo more or less at the end, and the other half is serialized, with storylines following from one chapter to the other, and more of a dramedy.
