    Princess Carolyn is my personal favorite BoJack Horseman character, and she has one of the most storied journeys of anyone on the show. We learn so much about PC’s history over the course of the show and that history paints a picture of one of the most interesting and nuanced characters in the show. So join me as we explore the complete Timeline of Princess Carolyn!

    Too often, shows romanticize the trauma a woman can go through, setting them up to be saved. In this show, PC takes her traumas as motivation to overcome, all while being unapologetically herself, and in the end, it all works out for her. I love this show.

    Mad props to the writers for committing to PC's fertility issues. I lost count of how many times I've seen a woman either struggle to conceive or is outright told they can't, have a child through other means, only to reveal after they have the kid and at the most uplifting moment that they're pregnant against all odds in sitcoms. PC adopted Ruthie, had her new parent struggles, and ends the series content with things. There's no cop-out that she's able to carry a baby to full term because she found "the right guy" in Judah.

      Probably because PC instills bitterness into people who are less in control of their fate and simply let their life happen, and PC simultaneously shows the results of "girlbossing too close to the sun" which acts as an unrequested mirror to people who are very ambitious and driven.
      Personally, I'm a gay feminist so PC is one of my favorite characters on the show because we love to see a queen winning, but also the painful lessons that allow for her growth as a person.

    The way Princess Carolyn's Mom treats her reminds me a lot of my ex's mom. She's 34, has a masters degree and is stuck home taking care of her mom and grandma. She cooks, cleans, keeps everything in order, takes out loans for her mom's various projects that she just half hazardly throws together, and pays the bills. Imagine knowing all the skill and talent Princess Carolyn has being stifled like that. I couldn't live a life like that under the control of someone when you could reach the sky

She truly proved to be a good mother. Also a lot of people think Diane is the soul of the show, but PC wins that title for me.

    One of the first things that struck me about the show was how the writers made it clear the characters and events don't revolve around Bojack.

She's the one I related to most (minus wanting to be a mother). She kept getting pulled back I to the muck for someone she loved (bojack) who didn't give her anything in return. Finally realizes it and for probably the 100th time pulls herself out of the muck. She is a fighter and truly cares about people around her even if she doesn't always make the best decisions

And I don't think she would have even if she hadn't married Judah.

    This ties so well into the over arching theme of the show being Generational Trauma. Granted we don't see her grandma or the 'old' country but PCs life is a stark contrast to the life of Beatrice Horseman. Who DID have the child of passion, who DID get stuck in a life outside of her choice, and DID wind up being forced into situation after situation outside of her control.
    PC we get the chance to see the other side of things, instead of a hell constructed out of miss opportunity and happenstance we get to see one built out of personal choices. Granted yes Bea could have made choices to avoid her situation she didn't, she stuck to the path guided by her trauma while PC doesn't. The only choice really made FOR Carolynn was the miscarriages, every other branch in her life she picked. She chose to move to LA, she chose to stick around for Bojack, she chose to become an agent then a manager, she chose to create a company on her own BUT she also chose to live her best life and fight and scrape till she eventually came out on top with a loving partner in Juda, a happy baby girl in Rosie, and a collection of wonderful friends surrounding her.
    I see Beatrice and Carolynn as two sides of the same coin. One side the person gave up and submitted to the horrible situations they were forced into while the other fought back. Carolynn never gave up for too long and her small stints of giving up were countered by her keeping of good company. Todd, Juda, Diane, these are all people who want to see Carolynn and all their other friends succeed and will help as much as they can. Carolynn made all the right choices while Beatrice (what few choices she had) made the wrong ones.
    NOTE: Because I feel it will come up, I know Beatrice had very few choices as she was subject to society and such but the choices she did make were key choices. NO ONE told her to keep Bojack, she chose to do so out of her own insecurities. NO ONE told her to force Henrietta to abaondon Hollyhock. No one told her to drug Holly, no one told her enable Butterscotches behavior. The only thing she was 'told' to do and did was never to love anyone like Crackerjack and this was still a choice as she wasn't forced to do it, she chose to listen to her mothers poor advice. Beatrice was so broken by her trauma that she had given up and just accepted whatever may come. She lived a reactive life not a proactive one like Carolynn does.
