            We need more of that. Tuca&Bertie gets pretty raw too, take a bite.

                Initially Tuca’s energy was off putting for me, but she’s right, she’s an acquired taste.

            And I can’t think of any other show, cartoon or live action or anything, that was anywhere close to what this horse cartoon was.

              I think it was the most honest portrayal of mental illness in a show I’ve ever seen. not judgy about shit either and didn’t make it the only defining feature of a character. the writing was excellent.

            Sometime you need surrealism to get you close to reality.

              I think you can get away with more and be more honest when a talking horse is the star

                Plus the whole, “why the long face…” and whatnot. Show is deep.

      Is he who Bojack horseman paralleled? Or is it just a common trope.

        I think it’s just a Hollywood cliche with enough truth it plays out in the real world here and there. a lot of the show was a commentary on LA culture and how it’ll swallow people.

        there are a lot of parallels here but I’m sure it’s a coincidence, but it shows how right the series got it.

        that show really hit me. I feel really bad for Matthew Perry, I didn’t know anything about his struggles until now and it’s really sad. the world really eats some people alive.

        I always thought that it was David Duchovny, but I guess that it could be Matthew Perry, or a combination.

          Doubt it’s Duchovny. Bojack was on a Full House style family sitcom, nothing like X Files or Red Shoe Diaries.

            In that case you’re probably right, so he’s Bob Saget then?

          Did Duchovny have a drinking/drug problem? I know he was a sex addict (which, in retrospect, makes Mulders porn addiction a lot funnier), but otherwise he seems like he has his shit together
