Netflix has a new original series about depression, alcoholism, and the fading star of former celebrity. It's a comedy, somehow. And the star is a talking horse. Soak it in.
BoJack Horseman, created by Raphael Bob-Waksberg, is a 12-episode half-hour comedy focused around an aging actor who had success in the '90s on a Full House-esque sitcom called Horsin' Around. But the show is over now, and BoJack has nothing else to live for. Except brown liquor and the memoir he's supposed to be finishing.
Will Arnett, with all the bristle of Arrested Development's G.O.B. plus way more existential despair, voices BoJack, and he's perfect for the part. The show is brilliant and twisted and hilarious. Check out the video review above.
