BoJack Horseman Logo.svg

BoJack Horseman is an American adult animated tragicomedy created by Raphael Bob-Waksberg. [1] All six of its seasons were released through streaming on Netflix. [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] The series stars Will Arnett as the eponymous character, BoJack Horseman, the now-irrelevant star of the 1990s sitcom Horsin' Around. [8] The series mainly revolves around BoJack's planned return to relevance with an autobiography that he dictates to his ghostwriter, Diane Nguyen (Alison Brie); other individuals in BoJack's life include his agent Princess Carolyn (Amy Sedaris), his freeloading roommate Todd Chavez (Aaron Paul), and television star Mr. Peanutbutter (Paul F. Tompkins). [9] BoJack Horseman satirizes Hollywood, celebrity culture, and the entertainment industry. [10] [11]

After coming up with the idea for the series in 2010, Bob-Waksberg successfully pitched BoJack Horseman to Netflix in late 2013, where the entire first season was created in only 35 weeks in order to comply with a set release window of summer 2014. [12] Over the course of six seasons, 76 episodes of BoJack Horseman were released between August 22, 2014, and January 31, 2020 [2] [13] —including one standalone Christmas special. [14]

Season one of BoJack Horseman was met with mixed reception upon release, particularly due to its drastic tonal shift halfway through, with viewers mainly only watching the first few episodes of the season. [15] [16] Each subsequent season would receive universal acclaim, according to the review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes. [17] [18] [19] [20] [21]
