The saddest thing about BoJack is being moved to tears by the tragedy of it all and to find it so relatable but when you try to share it some folks can't get past the cartoon horse. Great analysis. Immediate subscribe.
@@Johnlindsey289 It's not that the show is hard to get past, it's the people who can't see cartoons as anything other than 'For kids' despite all evidence to the contrary.
@@peytonmac1131 Outdated views they have.

I remember hearing testimonials from people who survived their jumps from the Golden gate bridge. They say that the fall is so long they had time to regret their decision. I wonder if those real life stories inspired the writers of BoJack.
One testimony that truly stuck with me was someone saying something roughly along the lines of "It was the moment that I jumped that I had the realization that every thing that was wrong with my life was within my ability to fix and change. Everything except for the fact that I had just jumped"
The View From Halfway Down should be recognized much more than it is. I remember watching it for the first time and getting extremely unnerved throughout the entire thing, and when the shot came of BoJack “dead” in the pool I literally burst out into tears not realizing there was one last episode afterward. I cry about a lot of stuff but I didn’t expect THAT kind of feels trip from BoJack Horseman. I mean we all knew where it was going when the final: “Sarah Lynn?” came before the credits when she died but holy shit this episode hit HARD.
The View From Halfway Down and Free Churro (the episode where Bojack monologues at his mother’s funeral) are some of the greatest moments of beauty and devastation in any art of any medium.
@@DanMAD For me with Rick and Morty it was the last line of the last episode of Season 4. “Holy shit I’m a terrible father.” For some reason hearing Rick ACKNOWLEDGE his biggest mistake with Beth and feeling enough shame not even be able to face the family was kind of a mind blower for me due to Ricks psychopathic sense of narcissism. It was a very human moment for him. He cloned his daughters to keep them close to home (in a literal and figurative sense) and ended up losing them both.
Secretariet's poem flew over my head the first time too. I remembered his suicide but couldn't process the words he was saying at the moment. Your breakdown sent an eerie chill through my whole body, put a lump in my, and an exhaustive "wow" came out of my mouth when he was done. I love this show so much. There's always something new to unpack.
The view from halfway down poem isn't just what Is being read, it's the whole performance. Herb intervening, him panicking. It's all part of the poem and is so real
I've seen some folks talk about how the poem "The View from Halfway Down" switches from 3rd person to 2nd person to 1st person and how that's representative of a countdown to the end, but I think it also reiterates the point that you made about Todd's speech to BoJack too. BoJack always wants to blame everyone else for his problems and remove all responsibility from himself. But in these last fleeting seconds of Secreteriat's/BoJack's experience, he can't point to "him" or "you" anymore, because there's finally that realization that the weight of his choice and his actions are all his own. He can't distance himself from that anymore, and that's why the final part is all in 1st person.
Ya definitely gotta up the volume on those movie/show clips. Couldn’t hear a word from the movie clips. Other than that, I enjoyed listening to your commentary.
@@Klaux 79 upvotes at the time I post this. Adding mine, that's 80 people that didn't think so. It's not an opinion thing. It's a fact. The cuts are SUPER quiet compared to the commentary.
I agree on that take that BoJack Horseman as a TV show is an experience, since the first season back in 2014 (in a time where the adult cartoon tv shows were just adult swims random cuts and the whole "absurd humor" overall was declining) all the way through early 2020 where the show has ended, I grew up so much. Usually one can say they grew up watching a TV show referring to the childhood, but in my case, I was finishing college and getting through the adult life experience and relationships, and the show was so real and human, the subjects that it touches and the viewpoint that it gives to the audience are very valuable. So I can say I grew up with all the characters, the harmony that it is shown between characters through seasons it's outstanding.
Love this take. You got two of them, but I would have included how the use of an f-bomb is limited to one per season, usually after Bojack does something unforgivable to someone else. There's plenty of cursing in the show, but the f-bomb brings extra punch to each gut-wrenching scene.
This is amazing! I always love watching Bojack Horseman analysis videos and yours was great! This channel is gonna go places I can feel it! Keep up the great work!
Bruh that is so true, Bojack is such a powerfull character and an very intresting one as well. And the story he tells from he's series i think really touches and interacts with a lot of people who may have simmilar problems. I think that when the series espesially just becomes amazing is at the last three seasons when Bojack and the people around him get actually real. And i am honestly sook that someone could do, this good of a job putting the whole storyline together in such a beatifull way to watch. I was really sad when the series ended but it did wrap up pretty well and honestly i didnt expect anything mpre from it. It was definetly a nice expirience!
Excellent job man. You definitely deserve a kudos for being able to dissect this master class writing. I would really be glad if you can elaborate and make a video about "the view from the halfway down". Thanks for this video. Connection between inglorious basterds and bojack was spot on
"you have to be better" Todd's rant always reminds me of one of my mantras... "It isn't the mistakes you make that define you, ITS WHAT YOU DO ABOUT THOSE MISTAKES.
Hey omg I fucking love your bojack videos ur free churro video was perfect and put into words how I felt about the episode just wondering what was the end song you used
Great video about my favourite show and piece of media ever!!! I'd recommend you make videos about more popular things, whilst making whatever you want, you have potential. Again, great video.
Ok, the video is amazing, but since you emphasized the concept of choice, I feel like you should have added the Angela Diaz speech about the concept of Bojack making these bad choices
If I can be beautifully honest as a critique . The comparison of Christoph vs Farmer to Bojacks inner turmoil of trying to do good seems like a comparison made to sound like what you’d expect to hear in a film essay type video. I wouldn’t think to comment it but the whole Inglorious Basterds segment, but the fact it took up such a portion of the video- in my opinion just seems like a really flashy way to introduce the fact that yeah, Bojacks destructive ways get in his own way. Don’t quite see the connection beyond that sentence. Don’t really believe it’s necessary to get deep in the characters of this classically suspenseful scene. I hope I’m not sounding rude, commenting to actually be constructive. I’m in the middle of it still but it’s still a gripping video so far.
I love how todd is introduced and designed to look like a dumb deadbeat couch surfer, but ends up being one of the most successful, emotionally mature, and intelligent people in the show

Clever use of their network's restriction of 1 f bomb per season. Breaking bad for example had the same restriction after season 1.
when todd said it:(
@@MrWhygodwhy bojack was on netflix. There was no such limit.

I don't think that BoJack ever wants to "do" the right thing. He just wants to be regarded as someone nice, he just wants people to like him

The French Farmer. Even though he's a rancher. The Francher
The writing that goes into this show I feel like doesn’t get enough Praise I swear. I love this show. Good video keep it up 👍🏾

Watched this and the comparison between that and 13 reasons, and this shit is BANGER!! Keep up the Mf work!!
View from Halfway Down gave me an existential crisis the first time and it's still hard to return to but so well made
Idk how your video included my favorite movie and tv show that have nothing to do with each other but it did, tips hat*
Every single time I watch this part of the view from half way down I cry. Every fucking time.
The analogy between BoJack and the two characters from IG was actually really rather clever - well done! Great video.
this show taught me more about art than any classroom and made me a better human being
hey man!! just got this recommended to me now and it's amazing!! :D +1 subscriber
I love that there is a show called Flaked where Will Arnett plays the main character who to me is so similar to Bojack they even dress similarly
This man goes too hard in these videos to have less than 1k subs
Holy shit....halfway down! I feel like I just had an "I SEE YOU....I....C...U..." moment.
great video essay
Hey omg I fucking love your bojack videos ur free churro video was perfect and put into words how I felt about the episode just wondering what was the end song you used
Definitely a show I'd rematch and I don't rematch shows much once I finish them

herb always reminded me of bill burr, but i really like whoever they cast as herb

amazing voice acting by john krasinski for secretariat

3:40 I don’t know what movie this is but I swear this is the movie that the grammar nazis skit was based off of
si
Which character represents Bojack? Easy.
Excellent delivery.
Whats the ending theme?
Please come back
The View from Halfway Down is talking about jumping off a bridge, not a building...... other than that great vid
Definitely one of my 2 favorite Netflix originals

What song did u use at the end
(hey whats the end remix--))
Rufi.o - Oblivion remix (ft. Lily Potter)
i just noticed that lipsync is everywhere
wait, what movie was bojack being compared to?
Inglorious bastards
I love how todd is introduced and designed to look like a dumb deadbeat couch surfer, but ends up being one of the most successful, emotionally mature, and intelligent people in the show
I swear if bojack was live action it would blowed up more
But it wouldn't be as special... There is a reason why this show is animated.
I think the show would be worse if done in live action
Great video. But I had to point out that Secretariat killed himself by jumping into the Ohio river, not the ocean. Put some respect on Louisville, KY
Too soft.
