BOJACK HORSEMAN BoJack Horseman (voiced by Will Arnett) is a former sitcom star turned disgruntled D-lister struggling with depression and alcoholism, and also being an arsehole.
Developed during the #MeToo era, BoJack Horseman shows us why having a mental health condition doesn’t necessarily absolve someone of their bad behaviour – in fact, makes a case for accountability being a first step to recovery.
Importantly, it doesn’t shy away from conversations about disadvantage and discrimination when it comes to mental health.
That’s the premise of this musical-comedy starring Rachel Bloom as Rebecca Bunch, a lawyer who takes life lessons from rom-coms and musicals a bit too literally, to the detriment of her own mental health.
Instead, we’re treated to sibling rivalries, awkward crushes, queer experimentation and Nicholas’s increasingly bizarre collection of giant bugs.
