I appreciate y'all already knowing why the Re-Upload! Sorry for clogging up your YT feed today with an extra video, but yes the copyright Gods came for me :( hopefully we're good now!
"i'm dying I'm not gonna Feel Better. and I'm not gonna be your prop so YOU CAN FEEL BETTER" That right there is why people point to this episode as the turning point when audiences knew they weren't watching JUST Another adult cartoon. Personally I LOVE the message that just because one person is owed an apology doesn't mean the other person is owed forgiveness.
Another great subtle sight gag - Herb's nurse is a 'Care' Bear enjoying these reactions, funny to hear and then see your expectations being subverted. as you say it just doesn't go down the 'traditional' show routes but to places completely unexpected
Fun Fact: Theres a real Secretariat movie. You remember character actress Margo Martindale in that episode where Todds rock opera gets sabotaged? She is part of the cast of the Secretariat movie.
Part spring breakers and also the bling ring, which is based in real teens in LA the burglarized celebrity manaions using social media to track when they wouldn't be home.
I love how they use the F bombs so sparingly and meaningfully, every time an F bomb is dropped, a bond has been teared apart, and it's so beautiful to see adult cartoons, specially a "silly" one like this to be so restrained and mature when it comes to profanity
@@jeffbrehove2614 As much as I'd like to think that's true (because as a gay person I do get gay vibes from her and I think it makes the situation with Herb more complex), I feel like I remember the woman she was speaking of was framed less as a partner and more as a personal caretaker. I'd have to rewatch the episode to remember clearly why I got that impression, but in my memory the woman was a younger person helping Angela out in her old age. That said, if I'm wrong, it DOES add another layer to the Herb firing. It does NOT make it right or okay, but it would highlight the role of successful LGBTQ+ people putting them in a precarious position where they have to choose between solidarity for their community versus keeping their heads down to avoid bigoted scrutiny themselves. Calls into question the responsibility of LGBTQ people with some level of power to support and pave the way for the future of the community, or if that burden is unwarranted. Makes ya think, huh?
Thanks for re-uploading! I did not expect this at all when I watched this show. I had it on in the background on Netflix while working on an art project and I kept wondering what I was missing, because I'd heard all this buzz about it yet it just seemed like a rather run-of-the-mill modern adult animation show to me. Then the very end of the episode before this one ("You are 40!") made me prick up my ears a bit. And then this one dropped. Yikes.
SAME! Though I hadn't heard much about the show.... I just felt there were inklings of something special here and there, and I wanted to give it a try (or two, since I stopped after episode 3 made me super uncomfortable, but the way the show takes it seriously sets it apart from other shows where it'd just be a "funny one-off gag"). Now it's my all-time favorite piece of media
The simple "Ok, I don't forgive you." line is what's set Bojack Horseman apart as something special for me. Every piece of media ever always goes about how we should forgive others but not this one. There are some acts and people out there that don't deserve to be forgiven.
interesting! I dunno if I felt heartbroken so much as disappointed in Bojack and repulsed by how poor Diane must feel. He just re-ruined an important relationship in his life, so in desperation he makes a move on Diane, an engaged friend and employee, making her -- as Herb astutely put it -- a prop so he could feel better. Those guitar chords at the end though.... heart-wrenching and chilling

This is where the show really begins!
This terrifies and excites me 😅

Ohhhh my go- how did it not- oh my God that's so genius
You're right, it is very real and sad. Sometimes, things just can't be fixed.
This episode is what sets up the mood for the rest of the series for me! The 4 out of 5 here, as well.
Fun Fact: Theres a real Secretariat movie. You remember character actress Margo Martindale in that episode where Todds rock opera gets sabotaged? She is part of the cast of the Secretariat movie.
Nooooooo way. I'm going to have to watch it and see if it's up to snuff 🤣
The first F bomb of the series! So refreshing seeing an adult cartoon with restraint in profanity.
Apparently, the “Celebrity Stealing club “ girls are based on a film (that I haven’t seen) called Spring Breakers
Part spring breakers and also the bling ring, which is based in real teens in LA the burglarized celebrity manaions using social media to track when they wouldn't be home.

Those tarpits are based on a real tarpit. Wooly mammoths and all.
👀👀
@@EversPrimeTime of course, the real mammoths don't wear clothes or walk on two legs.
Secretariat was arguably the greatest racehorse ever
That was wrong of them to fire Herb just because he's gay
Angela the network executive was gay too. (We learn that in season 6)
@@jeffbrehove2614 She is? I completely missed that then. I watched the whole show. Maybe I was too focused on all the depressing sh*t
@@jeffbrehove2614 Where does she say she's gay
@@Isabella-tu9fb When she and Bojack meet in Season 6. She's in a long term relationship with a woman.

Yes! That was a big realization for me that this show is going to go a LOT differently than I expect.
@@EversPrimeTime it's gonna be quite a ride lol
Ive been watching some of your videos for a few weeks. Cool channel, keep it up!
Incredible, thanks so much for watching!! :D
This episode hits so much harder after you see Angela Diaz again in season 6
The TH-cam copyright 👮♀️ come for ya?
It’s okay, I don’t mind rewatching your reaction, they’re always fun
Exactlyyyyy... thank you so much for watching again! :D
Nobody has tar pits in their backyard. You should learn about the La Brea Tar Pits, they are an ecological curiosity
Here's hoping Netflix doesn't take this down.
🤞🤞🤞 Literally the turn around point of S1 lol
Dude this show was finished in 2020
@@angeloalvarez5520This video is a reupload, so even though it's been 3 years they still care
@@in-completeanimations1715 Netflix cannot cancel a show that already ended
Re: Little did he know :SoEverSip:
👀👀👀
TH-cam copyright is a mess
yepp 😅
How come you had to reupload?
Copyright from Netflix, I would guess
Watching TH-cam reactors is a dangerous game. You have to be careful to catch the reactions when you can
Correct, Netflix came for me 😅we'll see how long this stays up!
I knew Diane was engaged, but my heart breaking again when she stepped back toward Bojack😢
