Wake them up for work, call them to change laundry, make sure they ate.

I don't think Bojack would have been able to live in peace with that metaphorical dagger dangling above his head. At least know that he was held accountable, he can truly move on from those mistakes.

He might very well have let go of that hatred in that moment.

Imagine if Bojack had gone for rehab 15 years back. This show taught me to fix my issues if I recognize them.

I remember when I first started watching the show, I was in a rough space mentally and really immature (I was like 15 or 16 at the time.) I remember Bojack always using the excuse that he was a shitty person because he was depressed and I honestly felt the same way. I felt like I was doomed to repeat the same cycle of being depressed, acting shitty, feeling guilty and becoming more depressed, rinse and repeat. I felt like I shouldn't even bother being a better person because I couldn't. As the show went and I grew up, I realized I was wrong. I'll be 21 next month and I may still be depressed and currently living in a... suboptimal situation, but I've made efforts to be better. I can't say that I've struggled with alcoholism or drugs, or that I've done things as bad as Bojack has, but I've made my mistakes and I've hurt people. Now I really feel like a different person and I've done a lot to better myself in the past few years. I can't take away what I've done, but I've accepted it and no longer feel consumed by regret.

I had the biggest smile when Mr. Peanutbutter cried from getting his crossover

You can see the knock-on effect of his childhood in which his parents abuse him and how he damages the people around him from picking up those behaviours due to lack of self-worth and love. A painfully relatable outcome for me and many others - from something you have little to no control over when you're young, and the only way to stop the cycle from it happening to people like Bojack, passed onto Sarah Lynn, is to find self love and purpose.

The face of depression is coincidentally also my face.

I'm really surprised you didn't mention how Bojack was affected by Hollyhock's words. She tells Connie "you do this thing where you don't think you can be forgiven, so you don't apologize, but I can't forgive you until you apologize". And I think that struck Bojack a lot more than it's given credit for. It isn't just that Bojack can't be forgiven by others until he's apologized, it's that he can't forgive himself until he apologizes. Like he doesn't feel like that previous chapter of his life has closed, "it's the same house, the same town, so how am I supposed to change"; and in going around trying to make things right, he's giving himself the opportunity to apologize to himself and to the people he's hurt, and he's allowing himself to feel like a new chapter of his life ha started, one where he can be better.

I cried multiple times during this episode. It was hard to keep watching the rest of the series, but it was so worth it.

I’m so glad the show ended how it did. I see a lot of people say they wanted BoJack to drown, and that just gives me a visceral reaction to think about. Isn’t it worth so much more to have this character we’ve been caring about for 6 seasons genuinely get better? Doesn’t that give people who relate to him hope that they can get better too?

This episode right here is the reason why I hate it when people say Bojack is irredeemable or incapable of change. I get that what he did was more than just wrong, a lot of the actions he had took were downright disgusting, and cruel. That doesn't mean he can't break the pattern and become better.

It was nice to see BoJack finally get some good in his life. That’s part of why Season 6B was so painful.

also can we address will arnett’s groundbreaking performance as bojack. bojack would never hit as hard as it does without arnett really bringing the pain and honesty in his voice. truly became one of my favorite actors (also arrested development kek)

You should do a spotlight on BoJack’s victims w “a quick one” because I love how they’re the center of the convo bc the victims should always be the priority in stories of abuse. Thank you I’ve never commented before but I love your videos :)

@OsKarMike1306

What I find especially brilliant about that scene is how 1. a pattern of destructive behaviour can be outlined in a very specific way to explore accountability, and 2. it can be especially hard to identify a pattern of abuse for a victim of abuse when they are themselves trying to reconcile their trauma, which ties into narcissism. It's the kind of thing where they say every single bad thing one after the other and it looks somehow worse than in their respective context. What they're trying to say is that "You can make mistakes but these aren't mistakes, they're patterns and their reasoning doesn't matter to the victims". This especially hits when you realize BoJack apologized to everyone close to him, but he'll never apologize to Sarah Lynn, he never apologized to Gina, he never got closure from Herb, Charlotte or Penny and lost Hollyhock. This is why accountability is important: there's some things that you can never fix and it's part of the recovery process to acknowledge that before moving on.

I watched all of Bojack with my grandma (we’ve watched a LOT of great animation together) and I told her when this one was over, “We can just stop here, if you want.” I’d seen the next episode -Season 6 part 2 wasn’t out yet- and I knew.

@@kamreysiner352 well you should definitely continue it, it’s kinda a bummer if you dont watch it :/ i promise there’s nothing bad or good will happen

Not only is this my favorite episode of BH, but your "take me down easy" cover at the end brought me to literal tears. Thanks, Johnny, for all that you do.

the next episode is such a gut punch especially watching back to back. I am so happy the show realistically show cased the positive change in this episode and the lasting impact on others in the next episode. It is so important to see his impact both good and bad. The ending was so satisfying especially after these two episodes.

Alright another Bojack vid, i swear Johnny your Bojack vids are just the best and as for the episode well it was good to see Bojack trying to make himself better, i especially liked when he got his mane cut and that he just embraced his natural grey hair color!!!

What I liked the most about this episode was that it shows progress isn't linear. Self-improvement is a continual climb, with peaks, valleys, and plateaus, but movement has to continue. And for Bojack, it does. And that's very hopeful. I've been loving all your breakdowns of episodes and themes, thank you so much for doing so much work to unpack this show!

I'd really like you to cover "Ruthie" It's my favourite episode!

I found it soo exhausting ahah

This got to me because I’m starting my own journey through therapy and it’s so much harder and more complex that I would have guessed. I love this show so much

This episode does a great job showing how small good actions can have a great effect in the lives of the people around us. For once you see the lives of Bojack's friends actually improve because of him. This episode could easily inspire someone do better themselves, or at least to do something nice for their loved ones, knowing how much it truly matters and how the effort will always be worth it.

I love how relatable this show is, in a way it taught me how to avoid toxicity in my personality and it really helps with understanding mental health. Great video!

7:56 this is exactly how I felt until hearing this. I was writing a story about characters with depression and how they all cope and suffer in diverse ways. When I started the story, I really hated myself and now I'm growing to love myself (this show was a huge stepping stool for me). Upon this change, I feared I wouldn't be able to write such a story anymore because not feeling that broken anymore can threaten how I understand these characters but now I realise that this is the best time to write that story. The characters are now meant to represent me and my depression. The Mc is now meant to symbolize my depression (she is the literally embodiment of my depression, the personified version of it). A frenemy of hers can now represent how I felt I had to present myself. Like I was doing just fine when I clearly wasnt. Knowing there were people who went through so much worse than me. Like I had no right to feel this way so to avoid questions, I'd say I'm just fine. The mc's friend who is a guy is meant to symbolize how I behaved at times when I wasn't pretending to be fine. Distant, disconnected, and not caring about a single thing. The MC's girlfriend who is meant to symbolize the part of me who wanted to change. She's the MC's girlfriend to show how i tried to change myself using that tiny part of myself who wanted to change but it had little to no impact. The frenemy has a secret relationship with a guy she can finally be himself with. This guy is also the MC's best friend. He is the change I took in my life. That little part of me (MC's girlfriend) didn't impact it, the change (this guy) did. In the story I had this character convince the MC that she's broken, she cannot forget the things shes done and the things she's been through. (The girlfriend tried to get her to forget everything and move on while the guy convinced her this is a part of her life now and she has the choice to either let it make her a shitty person and have a shitty life or to acknowledge her pain, her trauma and learn from it) I'm not really giving it away by saying this but in the end she uses her depression as a stepping stool. Like she manipulated the biggest part of her, the part that had the most control and used it to her disadvantage. This is all demonstrated through a series of magic systems and demonic forces (meant to symbolize her depression) and that she is the antagonist of her own story. Lmao... props to whoever read this entire thing.

Damn. "A beautiful show" just got a new meaning for me.

This is genuinely one of my favourite episodes. Bojack is such an anti-hero and even though he's done shitty things, you want him to get better and become a better person in the end

I am always surprised at the parallelism between Diane and Bojack

I like the fact they chose a town full of horses to be the setting of Bojack's epiphany is important because Dr Champ pointed out Bojack's self hatred of his own kind. He's accepting himself as he is in that church, and allowing himself to find comfort in his own kind.

LOVE the cover of Take Me Down Easy! fantastic work on this one Johnny

This may be a really weird comparison (or just an excuse to plug a show I like) but Diane’s conflict really reminded me of the second episode of The Midnight Gospel. If anyone’s interested, it also discusses the fear that fixing your problems will make you less creative. It’s such a good show, I definitely suggest it.

I adore Midnight Gospel! They really are similar comparisons!

I listen to take me down easy on a nearly daily basis as one of my wind down songs before bed. 10/10 recommended

I honestly think that the Horseburg scene is my favorite when regarding season 6. Seeing Bojack come to peace with his own species after so long is strangely beautiful.

Hope you’re okay Johnny. Sounded like a tough episode to record. We love you.

“You can stay if you like. In thirty minutes, we start over.”🌱

When I watched this episode it felt strange. The whole show is about how Bojack has hurt people and fucked up. The catharsis was nice, but it almost felt alien and undeserved. That’s how someone feels when they recover even somewhat from struggling with mental health and depression. The relief and happiness is so sweet, but it feels deceptively tranquil. A calm before the storm. And thats exactly what it is.

I think it's really significant how the pastor from the reenactment practically breaks the fourth wall with the episode's closing line: "Looks like you found some solace in our show. Stay if you like, in thirty minutes we start all over."

I'll never get enough of these BoJack videos you're making lol everytime a new one comes out I almost break a finger trying to open the notification as quickly as possible

I’m literally so thankful for this show and channel. Bojack has helped me deal with so much of mental health and listening to these just add onto that. Thank you :)

the part i’ll always remember from this show is when mr. peanutbutter told bojack on his game show how he noticed how crappy bojack treated him and how he still treated him with kindness, gave me a whole new perspective of peanutbutter rather than thinking he was just naïve

I literally finished the series like 3 days ago I'm so excited that this came out right now

Ur bojack videos have taught me so much ily keep creating

I started crying at the 12 minute mark. Thank you for this video. As someone that struggles with depression myself, this show has helped me a lot and your interpretation helps bring it all together.

This episode always made me wonder if Mr. PB and Pogo were making a mockery of depression. *Long time viewer, love your channel!🍋

These episode breakdowns are incredibly well made and I enjoy them immensely. I miss Bojack's journey so much and it will always be one of my favorite shows of all time.

As if I didn't enjoy Bojack Horseman enough already, your break downs are absolutely legit and make me fall in love with this show over again. Thanks for your thorough work, please keep it up!

I think this episode was very cathartic for all the reasons you gave. But it's that final line by the pastor that gets me. 30 minutes and we start over. I feel like it's a representation of how bojacks change still feels false to him, like its just an episode of horsin around all wrapped up in 30mins, which is a vision he's clung onto for so much of his past about how he wants life to work, but it never does. It makes the entire catharsis of this episode feel somewhat fake to bojack. he had his nice little cathartic moments neatly tied up in a bow, but now reality is about to set in, which we then saw in the subsequent episodes of the season

I like how it kind of foreshadows Todd’s message to Bojack in the finale. His improvement may not last forever, he may fall back into his addiction and toxic ways, but he can always start over.

Seeing the same scene of Diane sitting in the recliner and Bojack thanking her over again, I realize. She's sitting on an open, empty pizza box. Girl what.

the outro to this one was gorgeous. thank you!

This show has helped me so much. And these deep dives help even more. Thank you man

Omg ! What a deep analysis ! Thank you ! That scene at the church and the words of the pastor pufff I remember crying as a baby 🥲

God, you have this way of making me realize how much I love a certain episode without even knowing beforehand. Beautifully done, Johnny :)

I love your bojack horseman episode breakdowns!

Did not expect a free therapy session today, thank you!

This was one of the reasons why Season 6 was probably my favourite. Yes, Bojack has done so many terrible things throughout the show but as the main character, I just can't help but root for him and hope he gets better. While we obviously know what happened afterwards, it's great to have episodes like this where Bojack really did have growth.

I love Mr. Peanutbutter 😭❤ he was a true loyal friend all time

I just wanted to say thank you for making these videos. After rewatching the show multiple times watching these videos lets it stay alive even longer. This is my all time favorite show and Ive only ever had one other in my entire life. This show is so amazing and covers so many important topics while also being funny and amazing as hell. it just really means a lot to me so thank you💖💖

i love the editing on all your bojack videos, it makes the show so much better

I would actually pay to have an hour long special in which we see all the characters lives a few years down the road. Do Todd and Maude get married? Does Princess Caroline discover the joys of Ruthie's terrible 2s? Does Mr. Peanutbutter find someone who loves him as much as he could love them?

This was really my favorite episode, I don't really like to say bojack was a good person, but this episode really addresses his issues and obviously he changes back, and relapsed in healing, it shows how real this show is,and I love it for that.

Thanks so much for covering this episode! It's one of my all time favorites and I feel it totally doesn't get talked about enough. The crossover episode never fails to make me tear up

Thank you for the sequence at the end. That was wonderful.

This is the 1 time they tricked me into thinking he'd get a happy ending, even for 1 second.

Can you do one on why princess Caroline chose Judah over Ralph even though Ralph was so accepting of her and the idea of wanting a family with her.

@dilemmadnb

Because Ralph wanted her to stop working so much, but Judah accepted and admired her as a career focussed woman, which as we know she very much is. That’s why it wasn’t going to work

A lot of relationships don't work out because of timing. Princess Caroline wasn't ready to consider adoption at that time and the stress of not being able to get pregnant while also being a workaholic didn't set Ralph up to be much. Judah is crazy perfect, he's written so perfectly for PC. She's always been a woman that takes the lead but she's also ruthless in pursuit of her goals. She moves fast, talks fast, thinks fast. She needed someone who can handle her pace, not slow her down. Ralph was the simple happy family life that PC yearns for yet it ignores the ambitious personality she already has. She thought she needed to sacrifice that part to be happy but she was already happy being a career woman, she needed someone who helps ease the load of being a working mom. Bonus: Ralph was designed as a mouse to symbolize the chase PC always does for anyone she dates. The other one being a literal child in a trenchcoat to symbolize how PC yearns to have someone to take care of. Bojack symbolizes all of the above plus her trauma of raising a toxic needy mom that she never got closure with.

there’s also the issue of Ralph’s family still holding prejudices against cats. while Ralph proclaimed his love for her to them, he didn’t exactly reprimand them for their bigoted behavior either.
