There's a reason why this is one of the most-discussed episodes of Bojack Horseman. Not only does it take a big swing with its storytelling, but it also has some of the greatest and dialogue and character reflection I've ever seen on television. The way they dive into Bojack's familial relationships and display them with such care and complexity is nothing short of brilliant. All three of them feel like fleshed-out, fully "real people", even if I still despise two of them.
Plus, the episode goes by in about five seconds. This is approximately my twentieth time watching this episode (no, I'm not exaggerating), and every time it feels like a five minute monologue rather than a twenty minute one. The pacing is so consistent it's hard to tell that you are speeding through the minutes, and the writing and dialogue is absolutely engaging and impossible to turn away from.
Thank you so much for watching and supporting, and I hope I didn't let you down on this one! I know this episode is hugely important to a lot of people, so I hope I captured most of why it's so great. Let me know if I missed anything- and thanks for supporting us here on Patreon, folks!
