Agreed. Tbh, I didn't agree with Sevs opinion that a)this was the worst season and b)the format is getting tired. Something different was happening on this one. Whilst I agree a lot of it was BoJack doing something shitty and then trying to apologise for it. I think they were braver with it this time round. That eulogy episode for example. Fuck that was just brilliant. The fact they ended it as they did they knew it was gonna go in a different direction next season.

Even Todd was a lot more bearable in this one.

I don’t think I said “worst season,” but... like... the mother-sister-dementia storyline of season 4 was SO FUCKING WOW. It actually made me cry. There was something Salingeresque about the portrayal of family dynamic, which sounds ridiculous since it’s about a talking horse comedian, but it’s true.

I think going where they went in season 5 was just... I don’t know how to really explain it other than with a shitty metaphor, so here we go:

Season 4 is the deep end of the pool. Feels like there’s no more depth to be achieved without drowning. But instead of, say, moving to the ocean for a deeper swim, season 5 just dumped a bunch of black ink into the pool and said, “Are you uncomfortable yet?”

Does that make any sense?

I still liked season 5, and it’s still amazing, but it didn’t reach the same emotional depths for me. It just tried to reach other kinds of extreme emotions rather than continuing to explore what was there. Not saying it was bad, but it wasn’t as strong as season 4.

i must have averted my eyes to prevent THE CURSE OF SEVERINO. which is when he tells you everything before you watch it. so that bullet was dodged.

but yeah loved this season tons. my favorite episode of all time remains the one under the ocean of course, which was before (3?). but oh hell yeah, that eulogy was genius—the format of the whole thing was ballsy as fuck. in a cartoon! lol. also enjoyed mr robot’s performance throughout.

my least favorite season was the one with the most mr. peanutbutter. can’t stand the fucking guy lol.

Everyone hates Mr. Peanut Butter.

but nobody else gives out spoilers like you do!

(like when you tell everyone the whole season 4 arc without a warning )

i was only replying to h8kurdt’s retelling of your points, which like i said, i never read cuz i sometimes AVERT MY EYES

You’re too sensitive about this. Never heard a complaint from anyone else.
Also, you said I’d gotten better!

But I will edit out the three-hyphenated-word, broadstroke reference to Bojack Season 4, which everyone in the discussion has seen, out of respect or whatever.



I think part of it is this:
If I’m on the fence about watching a show, and I hear something about the plot that sounds bizarre or interesting, I’ll want to know more about it and I’ll end up watching the show and forgetting about that plot point in no time.

You — or someone — got me to watch The Americans by making vague references to the plot, and I have no clue what those were because I watched the show and it knocked my knob off.

Just finished season 1 of Sons of Anarchy and really liked it. Will see how far into the whole series I get but so far so good.

im not “sensitive”. it’s just that i have an admirable perception of... the obvious. 2+2 =4, etc

also you must not be paying a lot of attention cuz other people said they avoid. im just more outspoken/direct.

yeah the last time you did and thanks for that. but the bojack im not sure what you did. i averted my eyes. so i just heard 2nd hand

s5 is great

thanks. yeah not everyone here has to watch a show as soon as it comes up. just look at demonyo with sons of anarchy.

so with that in mind, i think it’s best to warn before spoilers

except for han solo, cuz everyone knows he went to a farm where he has space to run

oh yeah i shilled the americans like a motherfucker and still trying to get demonyo to watch it i believe

and sure that’s the point of trailers, etc.

but i fucking hate trailers that give away the whole movie. “thanks, now i don’t need to watch it, $20 saved”.

i hate to ruin the surprise.
