I imagine everyone who sings praises of this show, especially those who laud how 'depressing' it is, fail to realize that Bojack is just an insipid knock-off of Dostoevsky's Underground Man.
Why would you ever watch this when Dostoevsky already did it 1000x better?
Bojack Horseman is literally Plebbit: The animated series.
The first season was really hard to get into. The second I couldn't even bring myself to get through the first episode. It started off as depressed horse dude does dumb shit as a washed up drunk. Which was fine. But it quickly turned into some awkward forced relationship shit and it killed any semblance of originality the show had.

The world is full of dummies who know shit about literature so when a show tries to have even the littlest bit of depth to it, it's the greatest work of art to them.

So you're saying all I need to do to make a critically acclaimed TV show is rehash concepts explored by classic authors inbetween flippant gags?
Why are always the people who don't like it that starts Bojack threads?

Probably a coincidence, nothing is new under the sun, etc.
For example you could also argue Birdman shares similar themes as well.

Couldn't be more wrong, but that's ok

Dossy didn't have a kickin' theme song.

Literally, yes.
An adaptation of one of my favorite authors (when I was in high school) with ironic animal puns and fun voice actors? What's not to love?I unironically love Bojoack.

There's no need to lie. You weren't reading Dostoevsky in highschool.

Holy shit, what kind of pleb are you?

>character is an insipid fuckstain who pisses away money and goodwill to fuel his weak, fractured ego
If I wanted to watch a show about myself I'd get a webcam.

Dostoevsky isn't as funny.
