was that Benny Schwaz (ep 9)

Spoiler

singing that song on the radio while princess carolyn was driving away from the restaurant?

sounded a lot like him

 

[NightShift]

I love it when shows have that one episode that is so weird and different like episode 4. That ending fucking killed me.

 

[Blitzrules240]

This show has some real impressive direction that often has me see a voice actors name and be astonished they were that person.

Some of the VA on this show is the best I've heard from a number of people

Major props to Kristen Schaal in EP 11.

 

[supernormal]

Why don't they release this on blu ray. I wanna have this show as a collection item.

 

[Blitzrules240]

Oh God, the end of EP 11.

My gut.

 

[OniBarubary]

I'll be honest; I really liked Episode 4 but I think I liked Episode 9 better. The dialogue between Bojack and PC is just so...on point and real. When Bojack said

Spoiler

"I do love you, by the way. As much as I'm capable of loving anyone. Which is never enough. I'm sorry"

I teared up because PC's face went through such a complex series of emotions.

And then that ending. Woof.

And even with as...really heavy as that episode was I think it also had some of the funniest jokes or sight gags of this season. The whole conversation with the dude at the bar. The assigning of kitchen jobs. The pay off to the food critic and the donkey family.

 

[Odrion]

So how would you guys compare this season to season 2? I just finished the second episode and man I don't know...

 

[Raxus]

It feels like they keep upping the budget for this show every season. Episode 4 just shows that off.

 

[Blitzrules240]

Damn, I'm finished.

This show is incredible. I'm just sitting here thinking about life right now....

Spoiler

Fuck, what else is there to say...

 

[OniBarubary]

Hey my prediction about usage of the word fuck was right!

 

[Narag]

Another good season down. Time to wait a year.

 

[Complex Shadow]

This show... Fuck...

 

[kris.]

this show's never actually made me shed tears up until the end of episode 11. i'm at a loss for words.

 

[Archurro]

That ending.... Easily the best show on TV.

my personal episode rankings:

Spoiler

11 > 12 > 9 > 4 > 6 > 7 > 10 > 2 > 8 > 1 > 5 > 3

Random thoughts on the entire season:

Spoiler

I really liked the return of Benny Schawz's rabbit character and Vanessa Gekko with the way their characters are treated. I had a feeling PC screwed over Laura and it was going to fall apart, but it did a great job of showing not every antagonist is two dimentional bad guy.
BoJack has a daughter? I really wonder how that's going to turn out, excited for that arc
That episode 10/11 spiral for BoJack as rough. Personally the hardest episodes I've had to get through in the show.
Don't like the setup for conflict between Diane and Mr. PB for next season.
I really hope it works out for PC this time. Episode 9 is fantastic in exploring her history and her personality.
I got spoiled on Todd's asexuality in an interview, which is a shame as I thought the show handled it well and in an interesting way.
That final shot of the suicide attempt/horses running was amazing.

 

[El Odio]

Got up to episode 4 with my friends before they decided to go to bed tonight. I'm sup er glad because episode 4 was probably my favorite episode of the series so far. Also that

Spoiler

cats in the cradle

joke in episode one had us all in tears. Cant wait to get back to it tomorrow.

 

[B33]

Episode 4 is astonishing. I love the ending.

 

[higemaru]

The whole season was great. Impeccable writing as usual and the budget increase is reflected in the animation. Stellar all around.

Now I have to wait another month for my other favorite show about self-destructive types in LA, You're the Worst, to premiere. And after that, well, I don't know what I'm going to do with myself.

 

[OniBarubary]

Oh my god, they telegraphed that ending to Episode 12 so well.

 

[TheGreatDirector]

Oh my god, they telegraphed that ending to Episode 12 so well.

Yeah, it was exceptional.

 

[SalvaPot]

I liked like they didn't went the expected route

Spoiler

of having BoJack win the Oscar and then have a whole season of him been miserable and getting more parts and feeling he didn't deserve it all because he was digitally replaced in the actual movie

Also, whatever happened with the

Spoiler

journalist that BoJack confessed to? Ana said she handled it,

but I guess I missed what exactly she did?

 

[Odrion]

okay, episode 4 is what I was wanting

 

[IsayFever]

Just binged the entire season, and my god was it amazing. The ending is just so hard hitting.

 

[MMarston]

I'm only on episode 8 but am I right to assume that Bojack

Spoiler

just got someone pregnant

?

Just a y/n would suffice.

 

[golem]

Shitshow lmao

 

[daveo42]

Episode 4 was one of the most bizarre, magical trips I think I've ever seen in a television show. Fantastic start to finish. Laughed my ass off, felt good and loved the absurdity that was the end.

Spoiler

Bojack never does catch a break

Edit: Episode 5

Spoiler

Oh fuck Bojack. Don't do that to Todd man. Please don't do that to Todd. Also, Diane pregnant?! Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa?!

The hits just keep coming.

 

[Atrophis]

The marathon begins now. Hold me boys.

 

[ShinLad]

Binged it and i'm an emotional mess. One minor spoiler question.

Spoiler

Did they ever tell how Anna "took care of it" from the first episode with the manatee leaving the recorder on while Bojack spilled his guts about New Mexico?

 

[Maximo]

Episode 4 was great now I know why everyone keeps mentioning it, always wondered how that side of the world worked.
The ending for it got the biggest laugh out of me.

 

[Muskieratboi]

Loving Season 3 so far as I've been watching it, but god-DAMN that first episode!

Spoiler

The "Does Bojack have a Horse dick or not" Question is asked.. and then AVOIDED. ARGH!

 

[Atrophis]

Half way through. Episode 6 was something else holy shit. Amazing treatment of the subject.

[AHA-Lambda]

Anyone know what the last song of Episide 12 is?

 

[Grazzt]

Just finished. Now I'm depressed.

 

[TheGreatDirector]

Just finished. Now I'm depressed.

Episode 11 has such a bummer ending. It's still affecting me after sleeping last night.

 

[Fitts]

Episode 4 is awesomely refreshing! What a unique (and often gorgeous) addition to the series.

 

[Orbis Tabula]

Just finished. No plot spoilers, just my general feeling. This season was great. The only thing that I can point to as a reason I wasn't totally satisfied is that season 3 had to follow the incredible season 2. Like, if Season 2 hadn't happened, I'd be saying this is the greatest thing ever. Now, it's only one of the greats. Haha. But no points docked for that. It was great and affecting, and everything I watch the show for. The wait for season 4 will be a hard one.

 

[Nyx]

I love it when shows have that one episode that is so weird and different like episode 4. That ending fucking killed me.

Came to post about that ep, it was surely something else!

This show's damn good.

 

[etrain911]

I found myself really confused with Todd's relationships and whether he was

Spoiler

asexual or aromantic

?

The creators said in an older review that

Spoiler

he's asexual.

 

[SDCowboy]

I love how the series is very classic Simpsons in that the episodes tend to have a deeper meaning in the end than just being funny.

 

[redhood56]

Damn just finished episode 4. Emmy worthy

 

[Sblargh]

Finished the season. Kind of crying now. Wow. What a punch in the everything. Fuck fuck fuck it all.
Fuck it all.
Jesus.

 

[daveo42]

Episode 10 just got real. Maybe a little too real.

 

[Sblargh]

Ep. 4 is probably the one that deserves an award, yeah, I would even say it was made exactly in order to be an award-bait self-contained episode.
But that 10-12 stretch. Jesus fuck dude. Man, I'm about to start crying again. Jesus.

 

[Jackpot]

It's kinda hard to root for him after what he did to that deer's family in S2.

 

[OniBarubary]

I think the reason this season feels so much more...hopeless or rough or hard to watch is that

Spoiler

in previous seasons Bojack fucks up and he does it with pretty much self-contained people within that season. He fucks up with Diane but they're still friends after. He fucks up with Herb and Penny and Director Lady and all these people who aren't permanent mainstays in his life. It's funny we can compartmentalize it like that, where because he fucks them up then they're not in the show anymore we sort of move on to to the next one. And when he fucks up with consistent presences in his life they still stay with him. In this season, after 2 seasons of his relationships with people like PC and Todd he finally goes too far with them. And it hits so hard because they're finally fed up. Todd's take down of Bojack was so fucking harsh.

Yes, exactly, it may be argued that

Spoiler

the lines he crossed last season were much more serious, like, the teenager daughter stuff is way more serious than sleeping with Todd's friend who is not really actually even his girlfriend, but he finally managed to be self destructive enough to be truly alone. And that's it by the end of the season, he is alone, he burned bridges, you can believe he actually is about to commit suicide because his safety nets are pretty much all gone. And while season 2 ended on the amazing upbeat note of the baboon saying that every day gets a bit easier, this one ends just empty. And even if he is about to, I don't even know, become a wild horse, it doesn't matter, does it? It's yet another wacky Bojack attempt of proving to anyone who is trying to listen that he is good, but he isn't, Todd gave him the truth, he either actually becomes an honest good person or all of this is just bullshit.

 

[obin_gam]

Is it worrying I kinda relate to Bojack on the latter part of the season?

 

[MMarston]

Episode 10/11/12 has really put me in a very dour state in the hour since I watched them (although they were still pretty entertaining when they were meant to be).

I mean, I am veeeeeeeeeeerrrry far from having a life as fucked as BoJack and yet the themes those last few episodes dealt are resonating so much with me. Almost too much for some reason


Shit, I need to call someone

 

[Geist-]

Ep.12(?) spoilers: You know, the reveal that Todd

Spoiler

is an asexual was really surprising. How often does that show up in television? LGBTQ is big right now, but how often does the lack of sexuality come up?
