I don’t think not wanting a library filled with fake books after years of saying you don’t like surprises is any more cruel than fracking in the backyard when your spouse said the only issue she was adament about was no fracking.

They’ve been foreshadowing this for a while, Diane still being fundamentally unsure about what she wants in life and whether she’s actually in love with Mr PB or simply trying her best to love him.

Again, I’m surprised with the casual mysoginia in this one. They are not women hard to please: Mr Peanutbutter neglects them until he is afraid suddenly and wants to make a dumb big gesture. It’s a character very distracted, focused in himself. That we see him ALLOWING Diane to write against fracking as a gesture of…

I meant to follow up on Mr. PB’s line about being five fights away from another divorce in an earlier season, but failed to keep an accurate tally. Anyone else here have the hard data?

Man, that’s going to be kinda odd next season. BoJack is finally starting to turn things around in his life just when Mr. Peanutbutter’s is crumbling. And it seems like Diane might come around to BoJack given their imbibed pow-wow in “Underground”.

The Belle room was her personal fantasy, dating back to her troubled childhood. What Mr. Peanutbutter gave her was his interpretation of it. While it was not how he intended the gesture, he essentially took a dream that she cherished and shattered it.

Alright, I’ve been dying to bring this up here since I spent way too long researching this yesterday after my rewatch of the series.

I oftentimes wonder how the writers do it with this show. Diane’s reaction to Mr. Peanutbutter’s library gesture was like looking at an optical illusion - with a variety of possible images that can be seen. You sit down and watch it, and think her reaction is entirely selfish, and borderline cruel to someone who…

I’ve never had any faith that Diane and Mr. Peanut Butter could make their relationship work in the log run. It doesn’t make much sense to me that she’d marry him in the first place.

Diane opting out of the discussion of the house was a big red flag about committed she feels to the relationship.

I think many people are also in the same boat as BoJack, where they would like to be better but aren’t sure how to go about it, so his journey muddling through really resonates (present company included).

About Butterscotch never producing his novel...

Okay according to this, it would depend on how extensive the DNA testing was, so it would be possible for them to erroneously conclude that BoJack is Hollyhock’s father.

I rewatched this episode today and what struck me was the shifting Sugarman/Horseman family portraits. Child Beatrice and child Bojack are positioned next to and somewhat facing each other as one phases into the other. She looks “faraway sad,” while he forces an unconvincing smile. They’re kindred spirits here, two…

The season had been teasing a grander view at Bea’s backstory for a while, and it was genuinely moving to see it all play out here, albeit through the warped lens of her addled mind. By the end of the episode, I felt like I understood the decisions Bea had made, the perfectly relatable reasons she’d made the mistakes…

This is one of my favorite episodes of the season. It’s packed with excellent writing, clever use of timeline, and gives us a glance into so many of the characters’ lives you forget they’re not doing that much interacting with one another outside their own lives.

Once I got to this episode (in admittedly short order), I was amazed how subtly they’d planted the seeds for it. There’s a conversation with Bojack 2 or 3 episodes prior where she mentions something about itching or crawing sensation in the skin (I can’t remember the wording) while describing emotional issues, and it…

I love that one of the books on her shelf is “Me Meow Pretty Someday.”

This is the point when PC’s compartmentalising coping strategy starts to infect everything that she does.
She prides herself on being a multitasker, being able to effortlessly switch roles as required or whenever something goes wrong, she’ll lock it in a mental box and get on with her new focus. What happens at the…

She wanted to keep trying to get pregnant despite her many miscarriages, while Ralph was ready to move on and consider other options for having kids. I think her argument was, she took that as him giving up easily, or not being able to deal with her when she’s down, and didn’t think Ralph would be able to stick with…
