    Building upon an already-hilarious first season and adding in bucketloads of character development, the second season of Bojack Horseman not only provides an endless stream of clever humour, but some of the most intense and heartbreaking emotion you'll ever get from a talking animated horse...

    Despite never taking a liking to other animated shows, I fell in love with Bojack Horseman. The combination of superb voice acting, well written comedy and a frank look at depression, relationships and the idiocy of celebrity culture surprisingly makes this one of the most relatable TV shows around. Not one to be missed.

    Did a rare thing by making a second season that improved upon the first! The voice acting is incredible. The animation is, like South Park before it, cheap and cheerful and utterly charming, and fits the content perfectly. The dry, sarcastic wit, almost belies its American roots, appealing strongly to this British audience.

    Absolutely essential viewing.

    Season 1 of Bojack had a slow start, but ended up being one of the best looks at depression and growing old with failed dreams ever done.

    Season 2 builds of this by both being funny and still at times bitingly aggressive at reminding you that you can't always find happiness. This was a show the critics completely wiffed on in Season 1, and I'm glad they are coming around now.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. BoJack Horse man is incredible, season 2 is just absolutely fantastic. It takes all the wrongs of the first season and fixes every problem. Also, unlike many adult animated tv series, the characters actually develop and change, you feel as if they have, and are consistently changing throughout the seasons, also silly little events that happen are always always brought up again, the show has a great consistency with events. Hell, from what happened in season 2 I have no idea where the story is heading, but something tells me all is not going to be very well with BoJack Horseman, and something truly depressing is going to happen.… Expand

    Season 2 builds beautifully on season 1, and Bojack Horseman now boasts some of the most fascinating, rich and complex characters on TV. It's detailed, funny, smart and full of sublime pathos, which is made all the more interesting by the fact that half the cast have animal heads. Truly the best show of the past two years. Long may it continue.

    BoJack Horseman is finally getting the acclaim it deserves from critics. I've watched 2 episodes of season 2 so far and I'm already loving it. If you haven't watched BoJack Horseman yet, just do it. It's one of the funniest animated shows at the moment

    What more could a humble Netflix user ask for than a funny, irreverent and honest comedy which perfectly appeals to the cynical disposition of the millennial generation? Nothing more than Bojack Horseman.

    Bojack continues to be a show with surprising depth. Bleak and uncompromising, the second season is a worthy successor to the criminally underrated first season.

    BoJack Horseman's second season is MUCH less depressing than the first season. An animated sitcom is supposed to provide laughs and enjoyment.

I know that was their intention, but you can't like BoJack, and that I what you want your viewers to do, like the protagonist, but in BoJack's case, he is sometimes an antagonist.

    In season 2, however, BoJack Horseman is a much better character, and the whole season was much funnier than the first season. I also enjoyed the character development in season 2 much more because every character had a story. Todd and Princess Carolyn had much more screen time, which really helped provide material for the remaining time of the episodes.

    I also liked the use of side characters in season 2, such as Sebastian St. Clair, Rutabaga Rabbitowitz, the Improv Group, etc. It really added to the series and provided much more story development within each episode.

    Overall, I would much rather watch Season 2, but I would recommend watching Season 1 if you would like to understand some of the references in Season 2.    … Expand

    I thought it would take a few episodes to look past a talking horse, talking cat, and a variety of non-human characters, but I was nearly immediately consumed by the excellent writing of this show. No other animated television feature comes close to the great writing of BoJack Horseman with the exception of The Simpsons. 10/10 with no asterisks!!!!

    Bojack Horseman Season 2 delivers the perfect tone of clever comedy and heartbreaking drama. The season takes place after the protagonist was exposed as having a troubled soul and builds on it.

    This animated comedy-drama takes place in a world full of anthropomorphic animals where washed up 90's sitcom star of Tv's Horsin' Around, Bojack Horseman, goes day to day basking in what was. Its the perfect hybrid of drama and comedy where there is no reset button and the character's build on their actions. I would have never thought that a show about a talking horse could ever be so human

    Bloody awesome, better than season 1 which is quite the opposite of shows carrying story-lines from subsequent seasons. BoJack is still a jackass know-it-all spewing a lot of "intelligent ignorant" BS. This is an awesome show, hope it stays around for a while!

    The second-season of Bojack Horseman adds a little more balance to the formula. The first is largely dedicated to humor that is even more gonzo, creative, and silly than that of the first season. The more poignant material is saved for the second-half. It isn't hard hitting or emotional as last season, where the show wasn't exactly concerned with being a happy one.

It isn't hard hitting or emotional as last season, where the show wasn't exactly concerned with being a happy one. We witnessed Bojack go to some dark, low places and we ended seeing him left there by the conclusion. While not a straight gut-punch to the heart, season 2 doesn't miss out on ay of the significance of it's message. Bojack's quest for happiness and self-redemption can still resonate with the average person, despite the character's Hollywood lifestyle.

    Bojack Horseman also serves as a look at the hollowness and depravity of fame and success. It's at times a straight up mockery of the lifestyle seemingly everybody wants to break into these days. It's the type of thing that sets the show apart from the rest, and opens up a lot of new doors for comedic possibilities. Almost of which is excellently utilized. The jokes are more diverse this time around and the shear number of them is astounding. Season 2 is just as hilarious as you remember it. Only now sometimes for different reasons.

    With such and emotion, there's really no reason to not make the return. It's something of a refinement of the formula. One that work's exceedingly well and got the show the critical respect it deserved the first time around.

    So much of the BoJack DNA is tied up in BoJack's origin story as a '90s network sitcom star because the show itself is actively working against the concept that sitcoms represent the way stories should work; that there are easy answers for any of its characters. And that's what makes it feel so fundamentally true, at its core.
