Yeah. Too bad it doesn't go anywhere after that episode. I know that episode was produced before a conclusion on the matter was definitely made, but a what if/logical conclusion would have been nice.
Oh, not sure. I'd have to re watch. I seem to recall the reference coming up once before.

Amazing season, this is such a great show.
Yeah, he does. The first time it doesn't ring any bells, but when she is mentioned again, and mentions "that" show, he remembers who she was.
Edit: Oh my God, just saw the site xD it's glorious.

Season was fantastic. Episode 11 was probably my favorite of the bunch.
was stressing so hard about Bojack hooking up with Charlotte's daughter... He was so close to doing the right thing.
Damn this is a really excellent show. I loved how episode 7, Hank After Dark,
Episode 7 and 8 back to back are really just top tier work. Episode 11 was dark as everloving shit. Sometimes I don't know how the show still manages to be funny when juggling the depths of humanities fuckedupness.
plays so masterfully with the whole Cosby-like controversy, whilst exposing how fucked up it is the way we treat situations like this merely because the individual accused may be perceived as "nice." And when Bojack admits he's hurt Diane never apologized for the way she treated revealing his most tender emotional baggage, it just felt raw and real.

only up to Episode 2 so far. pacing myself a bit.
I have one real beef with the show so far, though.
Infuriating!

The fountain in front of the Elephantè Restraunt was changed. The elephant is no longer pissing into the gator's mouth.
Infuriating!
Just finished. Amazing season and a step up over season 1.

Spoilers:
That "If you ever try to contact me or my family again, I will fucking kill you" at the end of episode 11 hit like a truck. Damn. That's how you use cursing in a show.
I hope we didn't see the last of Wanda. I loved her character.

Goddamn, this season really doesn't pull any punches. I've been in a bit of a downer mode the past few days, it certainly isn't helping. :lol
Episode 9 spoilers:
But on the other hand, (episode 9)
So far, it feels like this season has been a lot less about BoJack and a lot more about the people around him. Not that I mind at all, just an observation. Seems like it's all leading up to these final three episodes, though. (episode 10)
Episode 9 spoilers:
BoJack breaking down and crying was rough, dang.
But on the other hand, (episode 9)
that gag with Ethan Hawke cawwing in the empty studio had me in tears. Fucking hilarious.

BoJack sliding back into the darkness, feels bad man.
I found that to be one of the strongest scenes, specially considering
the speech the director (can't remember her name...) gave him. It hit too close to home for him, yet he still wouldn't break in front of others. His mom did some serious damage. Only after watching a second time did I connect the crying with the cigarette with the flashback at the begining.

That
I can't believe they actually got him to do it.
Paul McCartney cameo came out of no where, and it was great.
lol same, and llama del rey.
For me, one of the best (or most surprising, I guess) moments was when
At that point I knew things were going to
.
Also, those last three episodes, damn.
This is such a fantastic show. Hopefully S3 comes around sooner rather than later.
Kelsey Jannings was revealed to have been fired. The way the producer (Lennie?) talked about her firing in such an offhand way was fucking ice cold, and it sucked to have a character who was growing on me leave like that, but at the same time, it was really effective.
go downhill for Bojack
Also, those last three episodes, damn.
Bojack is really excellent at sabotaging himself.

I cannot believe how fucking heavy this show is.
This may honestly be one of the best shows to tackle depression I've ever seen.

I'm not an NPC. And neither are we.
This show is something else. This season was definitely a step up from the first, everything was firing on all cylinders every episode.
Episode 7 was my favorite
Episode 11
Episode 12
just perfectly capturing the bullshit the media does. Especially that Kanye bit. Damn.
Episode 11
I think he was going to totally have sex with her. He just got rejected by this woman he's been idolizing as a perfect solution to his problems so yeah, he's gonna be a shit person in dealing with that.
Episode 12
WHO IS JILL PILL

Steve, the dog with no powers that we let hang out with us all for some reason
Episode 2.
"Oh no they Disn't"
Also, Wanda is Lisa Kudrow? Goddamn, didn't see that coming.

Just finished the season. So good. I'll echo everyone else by saying "fucking episode 11".
That was basically the opener to episode 8.

I can't believe I never noticed it before, but during the opening credits when he gets drunk and backs over the railing, he passes his own pool, meaning everything after that point can't actually happen.
Is... Is the entire series a flashback/hallucination as he falls to his death?

Huh, I just remembered the opening even though that was by far my favorite episode.
I'm five episodes into the first season. Ughh, guys. This show is not clicking with me. The commentary "asides" about American militarism and patriarchal effects on teen pop stars are the best part so far, even though they're shoehorned in to give a pulpit to the writer. I've smiled twice. I'll press on.

These impressions are enough to make me check this show out, about to watch episode 1. It's pretty crazy how great the user reviews are on both meteoritic and rotten tomatoes compared to critic's reviews. If I remember right, it takes a few episodes to really get good?
EDIT: Haha, the comments right above mine are saying just what I thought I remembered hearing.

Well shit. That was incredible.
Really hope they bring Wanda / Kudrow back next season. She was one of the high points of the series.
"I guess when you see someone through rose tinted glasses, red flags are just flags."
That hit pretty deep.

Lol I don't know why but the bit with (episode 3)
had me on the floor. So absurd.
the two cellphones falling in love
Saw the entire season in one sitting, pretty solid, i loved it!
Highlites for me:
-This isn't anything new or spoilery, but i liked that they played up the continuity bits in the intro, last season the only change in the intro was the D off the Hollywood sign (which btw, was awesomely implented into the "lore" of the show), but this season having so much things happening and reflecting in the intro was a very nice touch.
No need to spoiler this, she had it on season one too.
Highlites for me:
-They adressed where the meat comes from. It had been hinted before with some of the Cow waitress jokes, but they actually made an episode to adress it, never saw it coming.
-Diane basically turning into Bojack, im not talking only about becoming a slobby mess, but how she acted in her birthday by being super stubborn and not recognizing what mr. PB was doing for her, the Hank episode, the way she realized she couldn't cut it for what she thought she wanted to do, it was an interesting thing because she always played herself as being better than Bojack, and it was like she was realizing she's not so different
-I specially loved how they were building up Princess Carolyn's sub plot as if Rutabaga was gonna screw her over only to have HER screwing him over at the last moment, she is my fave character and this moment was so satisfying.
-Mr. Peanut Butter was written SO MUCH BETTER this season, he quickly became one of my faves over the season, before he was kind of annoying.
-Writing out Vincent was a good move, they quit while the joke was still funny instead of running it into the ground, kinda mixed feelings about we as viewers finding out he actually was 3 kids in a trenchcoat (as opposed to the theory that only bojack saw him like that) but i loved that nobody in universe found out.

I agree no need to spoil, but 1st season was This American Life vs 2nd season's Serial.

FFFFFF I WISH THIS WAS TAGGED
My biggest gripe:
Jill Pill (who I bet will be a pill bug or married to one). I don't mind the S3 story hook, or the fact that she's someone from BoJack's past we didn't know about, but it bugs the ever living shit out of me that she's someone from BoJack's "other TV show" that we never even knew existed. I have a hard time imagining a justifiable reason to hide that from the audience. Just seems like they decided to bolt that onto BoJack's past, was it ever even mentioned in passing?

Herb's cancer going into remission, then him dying from a car crash/peanut allergy or Todd working on Disneyland for the past five years
