In an [[alternate history|alternate world]] where humans and tailless [[Anthropomorphism|anthropomorphic]] animals live side by side, [[BoJack Horseman (character)|BoJack Horseman]], the washed-up star of the 1990s sitcom ''Horsin' Around'', plans his big return to celebrity relevance with a tell-all autobiography that he dictates to his [[ghostwriter]] Diane Nguyen. BoJack also has to contend with the demands of his agent and on-again-off-again girlfriend Princess Carolyn, the misguided antics of his freeloading roommate Todd Chavez, and his friend and rival Mr. Peanutbutter, who is also Nguyen's boyfriend and later husband. == Cast and characters == {{Main|List of BoJack Horseman characters}} *[[Will Arnett]] as BoJack Horseman, a self-loathing alcoholic [[horse]] currently in his 50s, whose acting career peaked when he starred in a successful '90s family sitcom called ''Horsin' Around''. Though he began as a young bright-eyed actor, he has since grown bitter, deeply depressed, and jaded towards Hollywoo<!--NOT a typo--> and who he has become post-fame. BoJack has been shown to be caring and insightful, but his insecurities, loneliness, and desperate need for approval often result in self-destructive actions that devastate those around him. Arnett also voices Butterscotch Horseman, BoJack's physically and verbally abusive father. *[[Alison Brie]] as Diane Nguyen, a human [[ghostwriter]], a nice, well-reasoned, misunderstood intellectual, and a [[Vietnamese-American]] [[third-wave feminism|third-wave feminist]] from Boston who lives with her rich and famous boyfriend (and later husband), former sitcom star Mr. Peanutbutter. She is intelligent and sympathetic. While writing BoJack's memoir, Diane and BoJack initially develop a strong friendship that becomes increasingly awkward and strained after BoJack develops romantic feelings for her. Diane travels to the war-torn Republic of Cordovia to make a difference, but discovers that this life is not for her. Ashamed of returning to her husband, she develops a severe bout of depression, during which she drinks heavily and sleeps disheveled on BoJack's patio furniture. She is able to reconcile her feelings with Mr. Peanutbutter and gets a job at VIM ghostwriting tweets for celebrities. She is subsequently fired from VIM, and is hired to write for a feminist blog. She is a graduate of [[Boston University]]. *[[Amy Sedaris]] as Princess Carolyn, a pink [[Persian cat]] who is BoJack's agent in the first three seasons and former on-and-off girlfriend. Earnest and unflagging, Princess Carolyn was a top agent at Vigor agency through her dogged pursuit of new talent and large network of odd personal connections. Though she struggles to find a balance between work, her troubled personal life, and taking care of BoJack and her friends, she enjoys her fast-paced hectic lifestyle. She left Vigor to start a new agency with her then-boyfriend and coworker Rutabaga Rabitowitz. After recognizing his lack of trustworthiness and confronting her fear of being alone, she ultimately decides to leave him and run the new company named VIM by herself. After several setbacks, Princess Carolyn closes VIM in Season 3, only to reopen it as a management agency. *[[Aaron Paul]] as Todd Chavez, an unemployed but well-meaning and friendly 24-year-old human [[slacker]] who ended up at BoJack's house for a party five years before the beginning of the series and never left. Although BoJack constantly voices disdain for him, he secretly cares about Todd, continuing to financially support him and sabotage his attempts to gain independence. Todd has been shown to possess a plethora of skills including an understanding of Japanese, entrepreneurial know-how, having allied with Mr. Peanutbutter for various business ideas, and writing and composing his own [[rock opera]] – ''Newtopia Rising, Book I: The Search for a New Utopia''. His rock opera was eventually sabotaged by BoJack, who took advantage of his former addiction to video games. Todd puts the pieces together of what BoJack did string map style and begins to question his friendship with Bojack. Todd also has an uncanny knack for getting himself in absurd and extremely dangerous situations when his friends aren't around, such as getting into gun fights on several occasions, ending up in prison, and in one case switching places ''[[The Prince and the Pauper|Prince and the Pauper]]''-style with a Cordovian dictator. Todd's friendship with Mr. Peanutbutter landed him various jobs creating seemingly useless products. He sees the best in BoJack, despite his multitude of problems. He's usually happy, even when being insulted by BoJack. He is also almost never seen without wearing his signature yellow beanie. In his teenage years, he was an aimless skateboarder, and the object of affection of his schoolmate, Emily. It is revealed in the season 3 finale "That Went Well" that he is [[Asexuality|asexual]]. *[[Paul F. Tompkins]] as Mr. Peanutbutter, an energetic and cheerful yellow [[Labrador Retriever]] who is BoJack's former sitcom rival and Diane's boyfriend (and later husband). Mr. Peanutbutter was the star of ''Mr. Peanutbutter's House'', which, according to BoJack, "borrowed the premise" from ''Horsin' Around''. He had a stint at filming a celebrity reality show called ''Peanutbutter and Jelly''. Despite their rivalry, Mr. Peanutbutter cares a great deal about BoJack's opinion and admires him for his work on ''Horsin' Around''. He has an especially good relationship with Todd, and his positive attitude and financial resources combined with Todd's outlandish schemes and plans often result in the two starting questionable business ventures, such as a Halloween store that is exclusively open in January. In the episode "Let's Find Out", Mr. Peanutbutter starts hosting his own televised game show after his film company enters bankruptcy due to his and Todd's extensive expenditures on useless products. In "Hank After Dark", it is revealed that Mr. Peanutbutter was formerly married to a woman named Katrina who was emotionally abusive. His second wife was famous actress [[Jessica Biel]], who is portrayed as being obsessed with her celebrity status and people recognizing her. He grew up on the [[Labrador Peninsula]] (in this universe populated entirely by [[Labrador Retriever]]s), where "nothing bad ever happens". "Mr." is his actual first name. He is a graduate of [[Northwestern University]]. == Episodes == {{Main|List of BoJack Horseman episodes}} {{:List of BoJack Horseman episodes}} ==Music== {{Infobox album |name = BoJack Horseman (Music From The Netflix Original Series) | type = soundtrack | artist = Various Artists | cover = BoJack Horseman OST Front Cover CD.jpg | released = September 8, 2017 <small>(Digital)</small><br>September 29, 2017 <small>(CD)</small><br>December 8, 2017 <small>(Vinyl)</small> | recorded = 2013–2017 | genre = [[Pop music|Pop]], [[Alternative rock|Alt.

"[It] is perhaps a little more clever than it is uproariously funny, but it is often very clever, and, moreover, well-tuned to the ludicrousness of the sort of low-level fame that surrounds BoJack".

Ben Travers of [[IndieWire]] believed one possible reason for mixed reviews of the show was critics reviewing only the first half of the season, with the second half changing drastically in tone and developing a darker and deeper meaning.

He also praised ''[[The Simpsons]]'' as an influence for being able to tell sad stories without sacrificing humor.<ref>[https://www.pri.org/stories/2017-09-21/horsin-around-bojack-creator-raphael-bob-waksberg Horsin' around with 'BoJack' creator Raphael Bob-Waksberg], 15:00–20:00.</ref> Based on storyline similarities and graphical nuances, the series has been said to have influences deriving from ''[[Californication (TV series)|Californication]]'', ''[[Two and a Half Men]]'' and ''[[Daria]]''.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.inverse.com/article/4785-the-inspiration-behind-netflix-s-bojack-horseman|title=Who is BoJack Horseman About?|publisher=|accessdate=March 24, 2018}}</ref> == Addressing social issues == Since its first season, ''Bojack'' has addressed many hot-button sociopolitical issues. Its creator, Raphael Bob-Waksberg, once said that he considered the concept of "political correctness" something that other comedians and media creators should view as more of a responsibility:<ref>{{Cite news|url=https://www.vice.com/en_au/article/8xx9mg/the-creator-of-bojack-horseman-on-why-political-correctness-isnt-censorship|title=The Creator of 'Bojack Horseman' on Why Political Correctness Isn't Censorship|date=2017-08-10|work=Vice|access-date=2018-03-21|language=en-au}}</ref> In a 2017 interview with VICE, he said, <blockquote>"I think most people who argue for what you might call political correctness, are not actually arguing for censorship. They're arguing for self-control and self-restraint. They're arguing for people to be conscious of the power they have, right? And I believe that I have a lot of power, as someone making popular entertainment. I do think we have to be careful about the art we put out."</blockquote>The seventh episode of the second season was perhaps one of the most notable examples of the show's voice on this issue. The episode entitled "Hank After Dark," commonly referred to as "the [[Bill Cosby|Cosby]] episode,"<ref>{{Cite news|url=http://www.papermag.com/bojack-horsemans-bill-cosby-episode-is-equally-hilarious-and-devastati-1427606437.html|title=BoJack Horseman's Bill Cosby Episode is Equally Hilarious and Devastating|date=2015-07-21|work=PAPER|access-date=2018-03-25|language=en}}</ref> follows Diane and Bojack on a book tour as they field questions regarding allegations that have just surfaced about a comedy legend, Hank Hippopopalous. In the third season, the episode "Brrap Brrap Pew Pew" (episode 6), Diane accidentally announces she is getting an abortion via pop starlet Sextina Aquafina's Twitter account, and Hollywoo gets swept up in talks about the practice. The fifth episode from the fourth season, "Thoughts and Prayers," took a similar satirical approach towards the [[Mass shootings in the United States|frequency of mass shootings]] and the [[Gun politics in the United States|gun debate in America]], after Diane fires a gun for the first time and one of Princess Carolyn's projects get caught in the crossfire, launching a debate on whether or not women should own and use guns.<ref>{{Cite news|url=http://www.slate.com/blogs/browbeat/2017/10/02/bojack_horseman_s_thoughts_and_prayers_episode_skewers_rote_responses_to.html|title=BoJack Horseman’s Mass Shooting Episode Reminds Us That "Thoughts and Prayers" Won’t Stop Gun Violence|last=Martinelli|first=Marissa|date=2017-10-02|work=Slate|access-date=2018-03-25|language=en-US|issn=1091-2339}}</ref> One of the show's most significant interactions with sociopolitical themes comes from Todd Chavez's open [[asexuality]],<ref>{{Cite news|url=https://www.pride.com/tv/2017/9/12/todd-chavez-tvs-first-openly-asexual-character-and-people-are-emotional|title='Bojack Horseman's' Todd Chavez Is Doing Big Things for Asexual Visibility|date=2017-09-12|access-date=2018-03-25|language=en}}</ref> which is fully addressed in season four. In the last episode of the third season, Todd says "I’m not gay... I mean, I don’t think I am, but I don’t think I’m straight, either. I don’t know what I am. I think I might be nothing." == Syndication == On July 26, 2018, [[Comedy Central]] acquired exclusive linear television rights to the series. The series will premiere on the network after the ''[[South Park]]'' season premiere on September 26, 2018.<ref>{{Cite
