The Dangers of Capitalism in Bojack Horseman.
Warning: this video is incredibly political.
Hard to avoid, considering Bojack is a political show, no question, and one concept it does an excellent job of portraying is the varying effects of capitalism and burgeoning industry can affect the world around us and our daily lives. How it can take advantage of identity, the environment, and the workers that are the lifeblood of the system all in an effort to raise profits and generate more capital.
And how this callous treatment can lead to a myriad of different issues in the general populace, such as mental health or public safety. But the laws that could protect these citizens are ultimately also dictated by those with the capital means to provide for the politicians.

One of my favorite characters from Desperate Housewives, and yet another that had a really far turnaround from being incredibly frustrating early on in the series. It's very difficult to create a sympathetic character with such an incredibly awful start, but they did manage to make most of the audience adore this character, and it's not just because of the humor! She has one of the best arcs of...

There was always a natural synergy between these two, where they clicked from the very first time they met, and it isn't particularly difficult to see why that's the case. Honestly, these two just had SO MUCH IN COMMON, it was hard for them not to become friends. Even their negative traits are so eerily similar (which makes for some awful business decisions), but ultimately leads to two people ...
The Bojack Episode That Everyone Forgets.

The episode being reviewed is “Downer Ending” (S1E11). One of my personal favorite episodes of the entire show, and while I know that many enjoy it and appreciate it, there's SO much discussion about "Free Churro" and "View from Halfway Down", that this episode often falls by the wayside. And it doesn't deserve that- there's so many facts that we know and rely on about Bojack and his personalit...

Been wanting to make this video for a really long time, really ever since I made that first "Why do people even like Bojack" some months back.

It's so interesting to me that the simple way a story is told can have such a great effect on the a...

Hollow Apologies in Bojack Horseman.
Переглядів 228 тис.Місяць тому
Bojack Horseman, as a show, contains a lot of apologizing, making up, and forgiveness. But there's a stark difference between an apology that is truly meant to make amends and show that someone has changed, and an apology simply to keep people close to you to be able to manipulate them again. This show does an amazing job dressing down what apologies work, and what apologies don't, and WHY that...

How "Escape From L.A." Plays with Suspense

One of the most traumatic episodes of Bojack, mostly because you can see the writing on the wall the entire episode. It absolutely loves dangling the event that you strongly suspect (but hope with all your heart that it won't) will happen in front of you and playing with your sense of tension and intrigue. A very shocking episode, overall, and they definitely earn the final climax with some inc...

One of my favorite characters in all of Avatar for sure. So well thought-out, and an integral addition to the cast, even if he's not technically a member of "Team Avatar".

Instead of making the character perfect with no flaws a...

Butcher and Starlight: Two Sides of the Same Coin
I forgot about “Kal-el, No!“
This video helped me put into words how I feel about my relationship with my mother, specifically how being kind most of the time and using apologies for the slip-ups is the way relationships are supposed to be. I've been so used to moments of kindness that are used to smooth over the buildup of small everyday slights and cruelties that it really helped to hear it come from someone else that this isn't enough. If someone cares about you beyond the ways that you meet their needs, that needs to be what their actions represent.
No, I don't think it would have worked if Diane had "learned to be part of an us" with Mr. Peanutbutter. Let's be real, PB showed time and time again that he wasn't capable to understand Diane. How was she supposed to let her guards down around a person who consistently ignores or "forgets" about your wishes. No. It would have only made her even more miserable to keep trying.
That scene where henrietta replaces bojack in the car was really terrifying
In the episode mr. peanutbutter's boos, we see a young bojack when he brings katrina and this bojack just looks really liek happy and well adjusted as opposed to when he brings jessica beil
I think one reason people don’t like Guy is because he’s so different from every other character in the show. The audience becomes used to the dysfunctional relationships and complex character dynamics featured in Hollywoo to the point that when we finally see a healthy relationship, it feels alien. Diane and Guy have something that is not just real but also mutually beneficial without the kind of heaviness that pervades all her other relationships, whether romantic platonic or familial. Because of this, the audience is sucked into the idea held by BoJack himself that dysfunction equates complexity and anything else is shallow and fake because dysfunction is all he knows and hence almost all we see. BoJack fetishizes his own sadness and it conditions us to do so too. This means that when we’re introduced to Guy and his relationship with Diane, it is so normal and functional and domestic, it takes a minute to get used to it. It feels different and strange because it is different, and I think some people just didn’t warm up to it, even if it is the best thing for Diane. Being used to the unhealthy relationships of the show also could play into why people try to see nefarious action where there is none in Guy. Overall, it’s a perfectly written relationship and I’m happy Diane married him. I think it just felt sudden and was hard to get used to for some people.
This video is more about Hating Diane lol!
Something I think was kind of forgotten was that Herb was kind of implied to have a bit of a thing for Bojack, atleast that's how I read things. Not just because of the kiss, LMAO, just..generally, the way they interact im flashbacks carries that vibe
Also, it does help to like him because he’s a dog.
They don't work, Guy is just a sob for sad depressed women.
I didn't even know people hated her, the character I personally hate is Pb, fuck him
I was honestly surprised that most people actually liked him
Wait, people, real life people tried to excuse Bojack's behavior?
Just the scene of her bitch slaping Rex's mom is enough to love her 😂❤
So I might get into a debate.. but about Gabi and that younger guy I would rather use the term Grooming than rape. It's still bad but he was consenting to having sex with her. Which is not really the same as her step father who actually raped her forcing himself onto her. Using the same term kinda feels wrong. There is a difference between assault and manipulation ( those two can go together sure but not in this specific situation as the 16y guy also wanted to have sex with her but she played with his emotions and treated him like a toy) it's not the same crime or not the same type of abuse is what I'm trying to say. Besides that I really like your video and i'm interested in seeing more ^^
More videos
More videos 😂
The problem is, people need to change fundamentally who they are, and once they change they are no longer the same person so there is no longer a chance for relationship, thats why apologies mean nothing, because the person who is apologizing if truly changed is no longer the same person
bojack ave voice a breton from skyrim, anyway im stuned by the fact all those animal characcters have typical animal names
I don't like it, it's overrated
The reality of his forgiving bojack for the kiss is muddied by the fact the show needed a resolution more than he wanted to really forgive bojack at the time. It’s just a really interesting moment because it almost totally makes you believe his whole personality is just cope right from the beginning for a sec lol
Do a review of why women kill

Nice work
F*ing loooooove this series 🥰🥰🥰🥰 my mom and I used to watch this
I hate diane. Soooooo.....she aint any better for bojack
I relate to Bojack so much. All my relationships are destroyed. Sorry doesnt make things better but what else can i do. i've done so many terrible things, yet cant find the will to change. I AM the toxic person someone needs to cut off for their own mental health. I AM the abuser. I AM a bad person. I accept this. but at the same time, I have to do something about it, acceptance is nothing without consequence. I will face the consequences soon, before 2026. when I find the courage to end things
I think an argument could be made that Diane SHOULD have done what you said you'd have been tempted to do. The guy literally admitted to being a murderous public menace who could not be stopped otherwise. Diane's sacrifice wouldn't have been moral, it would only have been legal.
3:05 tell me why I got an ad in the middle of you saying Amazon prime 💀
Because this guy wants to monetize his videos and take advantage of the system he condemns
Am I…not allowed to have a job? You do realize I need to eat, right?
@@PosiTVty. I’m not saying u shouldn’t have a job I just thought it was ironic the moment u said Amazon pri- an ad played lol
@Bianca-nx1wl No not you dw I understand the irony of the placing. In fact- I removed that ad bc UA-cam auto placed them in some rather egregious places. There are just some who say I’m a capitalist bc UA-cam is my job.
"braci się nie traci"
but also bojacks book was a best seller and so general hollywoo people would have that glimpse into his actual life
Disagree but that's because I never could get pass a few episodes of LoK tbh. Its like Boruto (Naruto's sequel) to me. Got the potential but couldn't keep my attention long enough. And contrary to others stuff that manage to seems interesting through UA-cam short or tiktok (like short vid of cool moment) here even the best sequences [according to fans] didn't give me enough to be like "omg maybe i was wrong i should give it another try!"

Businesses are not always for profit. Hence the existence of not-for-profits...
I like Princess Carolyn but it didn't slip my notice that she let Todd open a daycare in her building cuz it could be used as a tax write-off. I was glad when things worked out for her but also, it worked out because she played the capitalist game.
I am so glad to have had this content pop up on my Home Page aligns a lot with my views and very necessary. Really insightful and appreciated when a lot of media and general thought is trying to slip back into the dark ages. Please keep going.

30:16 Yes, they do deserve blame! Regardless of how awful a system is, you still have choices within it. That's the entire point of the show. Unless you are literally starving, there is no excuse to contribute to something this vile, especially not for your own enjoyment.
But that’s the thing the people are not to blame because there is no real actual choice to be had that’s not an entire change in diet and that might no be even possible for certain people. Yadda yadda No ethical consumption under capitalism you know the drill
@alejandrocerecer2107 Even in a bad system you still make choices. You can't just bad faith handwave away your own ability to make changes in your own life. Maybe some people choose to kill for their survival, but if you're not one of those people, then what's your excuse? And if you are one of those people, does that then give you the right to kill for your own enjoyment?
18:13 Disagree. Patriatchy or men didn't twist capitalism into anything. Women simply coveted the power, wealth and influence men at the top had. But had no idea what it takes to get and stay at the top until they go through the climb to the top. And are transformed by it. That's just the nature of the beast. It'd be the same result in a matriarchal capitalist society.
George Lucas talked about how in the Soviet Union's later years, as long as your film wasn't too critical of the government you had basically complete artistic freedom, whereas in the American studio system there are basically only four kinds of movies you can make. Now I don't really consider the Soviet Union from Krushchev and after to be a REAL socialist state. After Stalin was killed the USSR basically became a state run by bureacrats. But it's worth noting how a country that imperfect was still leaps and bounds ahead of American capitalism in terms of the art that can be produced, as the means of producing art weren't owned by a few private companies.
I miss Desperate Housewives so much! It's still best show ever made. And Marcia Cross is amazing actress. I loved her on Melrose Place too.
I'm going to be perfectly honest I don't think people know the difference between being woke and just explaining the problems that are going on in society and having an opinion about them and putting them in a show to show that opinion because I'm sorry to say we can't ignore the problems that go on in our country forever until you know eventually I hate to say that so much corruption ends up happening in set country in a person is invading your house putting a gun to your head and next thing you know you're finally opening up your eyes to the truth so basically what I'm saying is there's stupid people that think when you put a political agenda behind something it's woke and it's not like I said it's an opinion that they're trying to explain through a show
8:09 something that isn’t talked about very often is that PC directly fuels Bojack’s regression in the final season. When Bojack’s horrible history is exposed live on television, she switches back into Agent ™️ mode and tries to preserve his image instead of encouraging him to take responsibility
3:19 lovely time for an add.
