That was top notch, but I also liked Todd’s 2nd (I think) proposed solution of using magnets to deflect the bullets. I took that to be a call back to Breaking Bad.

Look, Dr. Boots’ List, I don’t know anything about how to balance a state budget - or how a bill becomes a law. I don’t know a lot about a lot of things! But I do know this: nobody deserves Kinja.

Right, I love how Mr. Peanutbutter is basically the typical well-adjusted friend, vacillating between unhelpful (“have you tried NOT doing those things?”) and supportive (the quote you mentioned, seeing BoJack as a fun guy who makes everything more entertaining). The way all the characters have gradually become more…

Honestly I kind of hate that people will watch this and realize what my brain sounds like.

I’m guessing part of the reason Arnett delivered those lines so well is because he’s heard that voice too. For me, what really resonated was the antagonism: the way the voice is really not on your side, not ever. Anything you do will not be good as far as the voice is concerned.

Like a lot of other, this episode hit hard. As I’ve said elsewhere on Kinja, Bojack Horseman and Pearl from Steven Universe are my spirit animals, and if you know what’s up with those two characters, you probably have, or at least recognize, depression. I’ve had issues with depression and, after intuiting it for…

Bojack in this season has a bit/lot of something of all my favourite series. I am totally for the 30 rock wordplay btw.

Yeah when Hollyhock asked does that voice go away it really smacked me hard because it was so obviously a “not at all” answer, yet no one would want to tell their loved ones that. While these episodes are always a kick in the urethra, it is somewhat comforting knowing that there are other people out there that know…

Thank you for sharing.

It’s strange how you can be waiting for something and not know you’re waiting on it. Sitting and watching this with my girlfriend, she turned to me and asked if this is what it was like for me all the time. It was such a weird question, because I’ve struggled with depression and anxiety for such a long time that it…

Yeah, I can definitely believe America hates black people more than it loves guns, but women? Not so much. It probably would have been a better episode if they’d combined the gun control issue with race rather than gender, but I don’t know who the episode could have focused on in that case.

I don’t get your second point about Cartels and big deserts. I’ve been in the US, it’s yuuuuge, point taken.

Yeah, there’s definitely that too. I didn’t know the shooter, but my understanding is there was a history of domestic violence, which is another issue that this country doesn’t handle well, and that also had deadly consequences, considering how often the cycle of domestic violence ends in gun violence.

Oh Jesus, the thing in Plano?

Important note: it wasn’t a raccoon that Courtney Portnoy pulled a gun on, it was a badger. Because he was badgering them.

I came here to say that. The Mulford Act was a direct response to Black Panthers carrying weapons, including inside the California state house.

I was surprised they didn’t mention how this story already happened in real life, when fears of gun-toting Black Panthers led Governor Ronald Reagan to sign gun control legislation in California, because America DEFINITELY hates black people more than it loves guns.

“I’m just saying maybe if we got everyone the right kind of pumped-up kicks, maybe they could OUTRUN the bullets”. This episode is definitely the weak link of the season (It would’ve worked better if they had just focused on one of the stories instead of cramming them both together.) but that out of nowhere Foster the…

Yes it was super over the top but I was laughing so much throughout then sighing and contemplating the garbage fire we live in.

It’s no Ibsen, but there were still a lot of great jokes in this episode.
