[@luigiwiiUU]

@@SlySquriel you might be onto something

[@amityisprecious1334]

Ever heard of the theory that Bojack did die and how "Nice While It Lasted" was essentially Bojack's view from halfway down and closure as he imagines how everyone's life would happily go on without him while he regrets not giving his friends a proper goodbye? All this being connected by the heartbeat monitor at the credits of "The View From Halfway Down" and the heart beat monitor at the very start of "Nice While It Lasted" stopped at the rooftop scene, which meant he finally died at the end of the episode.

[@mhb7509]

@@amityisprecious1334 yeah maybe... but then again saying it's "his view from halfway down" would be kinda contradictory because that moment for secreteriat is anything but peaceful and resolute it's on the contrary about making a point that even the ones who think they're ready aren't and I think it would be wierd to make a whole episode where the dead express their regrets and how unpredictable and unfair death is to then give bojack, who's always had his karma, a closure episode. But on the other hand i guess since the view from halfway down (the episode) is just bojack's imagination the right thought process to remember is that of bojack in two episodes instead of secreteriat's in the poem. And then he still wouldn't have gone entirely at peace because of the conversation with diane where she says how bad the phonecall affected her and if he actually died that's even worse. But the message is still really different in the 2 scenarios. I wonder what they meant...

[@Omes299]

He wasn't redeemed, tho. Him not dying wasn't about redemption, it was about consequences. If he died, sure he would have faced "the ultimate consequence" in death, but he wouldn't have to DEAL with it. The entire show, Bojack constantly gets away with HORRENDOUS acts with little more than his guilt. Him going to prison and living to hear all his friends tell him they still don't forgive him is why he survived. It was so therapeutic to hear the characters tell Bojack that they're happy he's alive yet don't want to be friends with him anymore, wishing him the best from a distance. All his destructive behavior had consequences, but the whole show it was the other characters who had to deal with those consequences. Sarah Lynn's overdose, Penny and Gina's PTSD, yet all Bojack got was Guilt, and his close support system would only real slap him on the wrist. Seeing the support system say "We want you to be better, but we can't keep being there for you" was a very real and human moment.

Something random I noticed upon my rewatch of the show - in the “Bojack the feminist” episode, the whole shenanigans of that episode start when Bojack was on the talk show and said “don’t choke women” - which I think was a definite foreshadow to him choking Gina later in the season.

It's interesting how most of the trauma in Bojacks family can be traced back to Crackerjack's death in one way or another. And how it doesn't get remarked on. Not least because he was one of millions, and how much other trauma must be out there because of the war even generations later.

[@Goomyx1492]

It really shows how much of a snowball effect trauma can have. From Crackerjack to Honey Sugarman to Beatrice to Bojack and then to Hollyhock (and others). It's tough because people causing trauma for others are also often just victims of trauma themselves. It's kind of all of their fault and none of their fault at the same time. It just shows why mental health support is so incredibly important, and unfortunately under-emphasized in the world.

[@joeybar.]

lin manuel miranda horse haha

[@bluesira]

I think Bojack himself does not realize the connection directly, but they do allude to it constantly with how Crackerjack and his death was such a huge influence on Beatrice and how that trauma in her family affected her raising of Bojack, continuing the line of trauma. It is brought more prominently to the front in The View From Halfway Down when Crackerjack is one of the dinner guests at the table in Bojack's dream. Crackerjack talks about the sacrifice of war and Bojack calls attention to its pointlessness, overall. I believe they are making a commentary about how one young man in millions lost his life (seemingly insignificant), but all the roots of this family trauma can be tied back to this one tragedy.

I remember when I first watched escape from LA, I was 16 so just a year shy of Penny's age and while we are not that similar, I understood why she'd find comfort in a relationship with BoJack. I understood it was terrible, but I resonated with how she wanted to be treated like an adult and BoJack spoke to her like an equal. I didn't ship them, I just understood it. Then when I rewatched it as a 22 year old, I could clearly see how BoJack was not acting his own age and how creepy it was for him to go to prom with a bunch of teenagers. He didn't speak to Penny like an equal because he respected her that much, his own emotional maturity is just stunted. These things that didn't seem strange to me at first became obvious when I was a bit older. It proved that Penny really didn't understand what she was getting into with BoJack, because at her age, I didn't understand it fully. That difference in perspective really hit me when I thought about it.

As someone who had gone through this kind of thing before, I wasn't going to get my hopes up. If Todd was ace, great, and if he wasn't, that was fine too, the show was already one of my favourites. And then they actually said the word. And they introduced other asexuals. And showed the colours of the flag on the meet up sign. It occurred to me when watching all of this that I'd never actually heard the words "I'm asexual" on a TV show before. It made me so unexpectedly happy, and still does even after however many rewatches. The bojack horseman team did more to give us asexual representation than any other show I've seen so far, and I will never not love the show for that.

TRUE. And the fact that hey never made it seem like it was something ‘wrong’ with any of the ace characters (especially with Yolanda’s family) was so crucial.

@@Jurgan6 did make me miss the good old Bojack-Todd dynamic. After Todd’s speech to Bojack about how his biggest problem is himself, their relationship never recovers and the Todd hijinks feel less connected to the Bojack plots (not that that’s a bad thing, just that it feels significantly more separate). But for sure, ending the show and seeing Bojack and Todd pre character development felt like a rewind on so much depth for the show and writing.

Something I’m learning from watching the series a second time is how princess Carolyn and Diane are completely codependent on bojack’s chaos.

It makes me wonder what the creators’ relationship to addiction is.

[@bluesira]

It is an excellent portrayal of the toxic relationship between codependents and narcissists. The previous needs to feel needed and like they are wanted and part of something bigger, while the latter craves attention and someone to fawn over their troubles. So the Bojacks of the world attract the Princess Carolyns and Dianes of the world, while those two subconsciously seek out the Bojacks of the world. It's a vicious cycle.

STRONG disagree on The Kidney Stays in the Picture. The episode plays off Todd's insecurities and delves so far into his childhood in such an amazing way. For most of the early series Todd didn't have confidence. He avoided talking about himself and when he did he was defensive or self deprecating. In season 5 Todd starts finally appreciating his own life direction, aimless as it may be. Jorge opens up all of those old insecurities again, and shows us how Todd lost all of his motivation in his childhood. Showing Todd struggle with his past relations was honestly a beautiful way of finishing his arc.

The extreme cognitive dissonance people seem to have with where food comes from, absolute insanity. So many people I know will eat (factory farmed) meat three times a day but as soon as they are confronted with how their deli meat came to be they get furious all of a sudden, and not at the meat industry, but at activists and vegetarians. They will say how they can't watch all that cruelty, how it is stomach-turning, that you are a bad person for making them feel that way, and then right away they turn off all sense of guilt and morality and keep stuffing their face with meat. Absolute clownery lol. Even if you're not a vegetarian or an activist but just make a statement about factory farming being terrible in every aspect and maybe not eat meat 3 times a day people will get super mad at you because apparently their identity hinges on consumption of animals.

[@safkaesque]

thank you so much for putting Good Damage as high as you did! I’ve been rewatching bojack a lot and i adore that episode and especially the relationship Diane has with Guy and her own self living in Chicago

[@jan_Atu]

It's funny bc I constantly want to say "oh why is this episode so low". There are just so many amazing ones...

[@fishgirldotcom]

I can’t count the amount of times I went, “Hollyhock, noooo 🥺” while watching Bojack for the first time through.

[@tabifiedler6944]

The amount of times I say it on every viewing🥺she’s my favorite BoJack character (next to Diane).

[@kieravermeal9127]

When Todd is at the Asexual meetup, you can see Yolanda!

[@dangkhoa0202]

Huhhh how did I never notice that 🤯🤯🤯

[@zsuzsigrobler6143]

And here I was thinking that she only knew Todd was asexual thanks to her compace.

[@jooree7696]

Probably Erika was there too. Just guessing

You’re sleeping on That Went Well, but I’m also the type who likes episodes about handling character deaths just as much if not more than episodes where the character dies. Putting the fallout of Sarah Lynn’s death against the payoff to every running joke throughout the season was an inspired touch. Deep moments of sadness balanced by a moment of pure hilarity.

[@flawedsanity]

Yeah, I agree. It's one of my top 10 episodes definitely.

[@ultratog1028]

Fun fact @9:00 the "Walt Disney misspelling Disney" is based on a true story where they lost a battle with a small themepark because the trademark for Disneyland was spelt "Disneylland" in the original trademark.

[@sassyblondewriter8239]

WHAT? that's amazing

[@Arlyneya]

This is amazing. Would you consider one day making a version that is a bi-monthly curated box of snacks? That would be awesome. :)

[@Ch0nks]

Free churro is my favourite episode of Bojack horseman, but it left me completely mind-blown just watching Will Arnet speaking continuously for 25 minutes was an absolute masterpiece. Knowing how Bojack despises his mother and making jokes towards her saying "knock twice if..." to take a jab at her but also still show that even in death he's still seeking some sort of validation from her really made me shocked. After it cut to credits the only word that came from my mouth was... Wow

[@ndm13]

I think Good Damage is underappreciated. Definitely an episode I go back and watch on it's own. Granted the whole storyline of Diane properly managing her depression is really powerful to me, and Good Damage plays a big role in that.

[@katiesharp8601]

The amount of friends I have who watched the first three episodes and deemed the entire thing as shit is unbelievable. I'm like PLEASE give my favourite show a chance, I promise it gets better!!!!!

[@beluzzi]

Finally a tierlist that recognises "The old Sugarman place" as the best overall episode.

[@jill5917]

I love all the Princess Carolyn centered episodes (she's my favorite character too) but "Time's Arrow" made me more emotional than any episode of any TV show I've ever seen. I've re-watched it twice and it still makes me cry.

[@uglyaniimals]

yea i think that might be my pick for favorite episode. i was SHOOK after i watched that

[@bean3041]

Another thing that I love in the episode with Yolanda’s over sexual famil is how, sometimes, as someone on the asexual spectrum, that’s what the world feels like. The world is strangely over sexual when you look at it through an asexual lense

[@VictorTorres-fi7mu]

Im so glad that the old sugarman place is number 1. this is definitely my favorite episode with the view from halfway down a close second

[@LunalynDragon]

THANK YOU! Best Thing That Ever Happened is SO underrated and I'm glad to see it get the appreciation it deserves in this list!

[@lextownsend]

The Best That ever Happened is so personal to be, I remember being exactly like PC with an ex and that “I love you as much as I can love anyone” just ruined me. I was never enough and always trying to make things work and wanted to stay around, fix things and be acknowledged.

[@whiteasian3636]

35:15 this episode has my favourite Tod moment. It’s the one where he goes into pickles chat and tells her that his favourite way to relax is by taking a bath only for the camera to pan to him hiding in the bath tub

[@superzack247]

The ending of still broken always gets me and is one of my favorite moments in the entire series. The wide shot of Herb and Bojack staring at the fake sky has been my laptop background for years (before that it was the scene with the "oh no they disn'nt" banner). Also, really happy with your top choice as it is also my favorite episode. Really appreciate all the effort you put into making this, great job!

[@prolitium4112]

You're the kinda KZbinr I watch and go, "Fuck, I wanna be friends with them." Your insightful commentary on all of my favorite TV shows is a really nice way to get a new perspective and understanding of a lot of things that were already meaningful to me. Love your content man and this whole video is one mad-lad move, bravo.

[@caitlinangelo998]

I'm incredibly biased and Hooray! Todd Episode! is easily one of my favourites. As an asexual, Todd coming out was a huge monent especially since he was always my favourite character in the series. But mostly, i started watching BoJack at a time when i was forced to question my identity. Seeing Todd accepting his asexuality was a huge comfort. This episode felt really personal to me and came at the perfect moment, so it holds a special place in my heart.

[@ChaiElemental]

As an asexual, I completely agree.

[@whydidyoutubeputmynameherefml]

Good Damage made such an impact on me. Throughout the show we see Diane struggle with wanting to be happy and more carefree, but feeling weighed down by trauma and the horribleness of the world. It makes her so frustrated that she can't tackle her problems in a profound way, that she can't get that sense of closure she's been obsessing over. But something inside of her has so much fun and ease with writing about something that's just.... fun. She rejects it at first, but then finally starts to understand that maybe it's not such a bad idea to actually focus on something thats just fun and easy. It's very much a metaphor for how broken people often get stuck in overthinking about anything that causes them agony, and lose the ability to live in the present and find fullfilment in things. I related to this a lot, and after some reflecting I pushed myself harder to focus on my hobbies as much as I can. And for those hobbies to not be centered on expressing big meaningful ideas all the time. I even bought a colouring book and the time I spent with it were times I finally felt a sense of peace. That's what that episode did for me.

[@JerichotheSplendid]

I had watched each bojack series as it was released on Netflix but recently went back and watched it all again over a weekend and it was a completely different experience. Almost every episode took on a different meaning which led to 'The view from halfway down' being one of the most effective and brilliant episodes of tv I've ever seen. Really enjoyed this list.

[@elizabethallen813]

Undeniably The View From Halfway Down will forever and always be my favorite episode of anything ever. The feeling when you realize what's going on. All the talk about what makes life meaningful. Secretariat's titular poem really hit me hard. The music and background ambiance was astonishing and I'll never forget how I first felt listening to that poem. That feeling of... "I don't want to go but it's too late and nothing I can do can change it" hit me so close to home and I will never forget this masterpiece of an episode

[@jaysonlagrou262]

Same I wish I could relive watching that episode for the first time
