The sequence after he leaves Artemis' place felt like a direct reference. High and out-of-control on a bender before he gets back to the plot.

Wait… they put in a reference to the highly overlooked early '90s Bill Murray movie Quick Change?
The term "lounge" is not used in America in that sense. Living room would be the most common, but "family room" will also show up. Even "parlor" is a highly unlikely outside possibility (this would most likely be a formal living room used with guests that wouldn't have a TV), but "lounge" is pretty exclusive to…
I take it nobody who made this saw Tron?
Especially since it's only in that film, not Wages of Fear.
Calling the police to force him to leave, sure, but the age of consent in New Mexico is 17. According to the law BoJack was in the clear. It's simply a pretty bad idea and a serious breach of trust for his friendship. We know all the details that go into it having been the wrong decision to make, but objectively……
Based on Simpsons commentary tracks they probably spent hours trying to come up with a good gag there and couldn't. Eventually someone just suggested going with the meta joke instead and it was even funnier than anything they could have come up with.
Some of it is also because L.A. is a sprawling suburban mass while we live in a dense, urbanized city. There's just a massive cultural disconnect there.
And not one joke about how "Franny and Zooey" is the only other work of his that most people tend to know. That's the "take that, hipsters" joke that would have really pushed it over the top.
You say that, but a lot of people go shopping for BDSM equipment at the hardware store. Rope, chains, duct tape, free paint sticks that make great paddles… yeah, it's absolutely a thing.
I feel like they pick and choose the originals that they're going to put effort into. There are the ones that clearly stand a chance of taking off that get a lot of promotion and a good budget and then there are the documentaries, licensed off-network exclusives (typically foreign shows), and other stuff that they…
Speaking of doing the same schtick and Parks and Rec I'm slightly amazed that we don't have Jason Mantzoukas on the show yet. His particular version of self-absorbed craziness is perfect for Hollywood parodies in general and this show in particular.
And now I want to see the alternate reality where Jessica Walter was on Just Shoot Me!.
I'm still amazed people praised it so much. It was fun, but it tried way too hard to rip off every single aspect and story beat of the film rather than just creating it's own thing. It didn't do a terrible job when it made it's own plot so why try so hard to steal an existing one?
Look up the original ending for Being John Malkovich sometime. It involved a puppetry contest against the literal Devil, Malkovich as the world's new evil ruler, Lotte living in Central Park with her new lover (the chimp) and a group of animals as part of a resistance group… yeah, things got weird.
Hey now, blues also involves bragging about how your sexual prowess is, in part, due to your magical abilities.
Because they specifically added her into the show just to give someone for Rigby to date who also worked with Margaret.
Personally I've always preferred the UK's "Bum Fancier". Not to be confused with the less similarly tramp-oriented "Fancier Bum".
And that's why he didn't get laid once in college.
Absolutely and many have been the times when I couldn't find precisely the game/show/movie/book that I wanted at the moment, but it's still the general reasoning in my mind behind rating everything on the same scale.
