‘BoJack Horseman’ reaches emotional finale

Robert Kinnaird MULTIMEDIA EDITOR February 11, 2020

It is impossible to express what BoJack Horseman can mean to people without discussing the kinds of people who find themselves drawn to this show. BoJack is a show that offers us a mirror to reflect our worst selves. It gives us the opportunity to confront some of humankinds ugliest aspects and forces us to confront the fact that some things can never be forgiven. BoJack lets us see the worst of ourselves, either in the dysfunctional horse who cant help but make things worse, the high-functioning cat who poured everything into a career that gives her nothing in return or the human woman who wrestles with a very real depiction of depression. The show that sold itself in the first season as a goofy little cartoon featuring a washed-up horse became a place for people to realize that they arent alone that Hollywood stars and celebrities can be just like us, even when thats a bad thing.
