Why did Bojack have such little staying power?

>Why did Bojack have such little staying power?
They had like three ideas and just did them over and over and over and over again. They actually didn't choose to end, they were cancelled, and had they went on the flaws would have just been more and more apparent. Whatever legacy it does have it owes entirely to its cancellation.
>>
>>215200885
>was groundbreaking
Daria already did "adult cartoon but it's actually artsy and dramatic and not just a comedy".
>>
>>215200885

Ending was garbage.

Nothing happened in the entire series.
>>
>>215200885
>being rich is like so hard
I don't believe anyone has ever watched this shit. THAT is the real genius of "normal words but a horse guy", it isn't normal words it's rich fag whining words but nobody has watched it to know
>>
First couple seasons were okay, but got way too preachy for a cartoon about a cartoon horse man
>>
>>215201836
This

The first three seasons were good but after that it got too formulaic. The should've actually had Bojack develop instead of keeping him the same character for the entire series
>>
>normal words but a horse guy

How is that groundbreaking exactly?
>>
>>215200885
because it was yiddish shit that copied the home movies formula from adult swim which was also yiddish shit
>>
The first couple seasons were alright but it completely outstayed its welcome
>>

Peter Griffin killed their credibility and legacy in a 5 second clip
>>
>>215200885
this show is made to make you feel sorry for hollywood people, like their life is so difficult and its not their fault they do awful things like get with teenage girls when their drunk etc

it was so cringe
>>
>>215200885
>Bojack learns something but then essentially resets to being a huge piece of shit by the end of the season
The 2nd or 3rd time this happened I was done with the show, it felt like it was spinning it's wheels and I basically disliked all the characters that weren't Bojack
>>
>Nhilistic existentialist show
>>>NOOOO, REEEE IT WAS SHIIIIIT!!! WHERE'S MY HAPPY ENDING!? WHAT ABOUT GOD!?! WHAT ABOUT MORALS!? WHAT ABOUT THE MEANING OF LIFE!?! NOOOOOOOO IT'S SHIIIIIIT....

Holy shit I miss pre-2016 4chan before the right-wing LARPER faux Christians flooded this fucking website.

>>215201776
This.
He should have died. That was the only possible reasonable ending for the show.
Unfortunately the early-millennial/gen-xers who wrote the show think that Bojak is literally them so they couldn't do that because that would mean admitting that they all deserve to die too (which they do).
>>
>>215202415
>WHERE'S MY HAPPY ENDING!?
No actually: >>215202536
Show needed a real bitter ending + the writers' suicide notes if they wanted to make real 'art'

>todd is considered a heckin wholesome cinnamon roll despite being a leeching freeloader all his life

>the kids blame bojack for MAKING them drink even though it was entirely their decision
>bojack does his whole eulogy and somehow never once looks at the crowd noticing they're lizard people
>todd is upset with bojack for him fucking his friend even though todd is asexual and his friend clearly wants bojack
>bojack is screamed at because he apparently attempted to rape the fawn even though nothing of the sort happened
>every time bojack does good the writers pull some bullshit
>he lapses on rehab because we can't have a poignant moment where he drinks water instead of alcohol
>the whole censorship thing at the end
I could go on but I really fucking hate this show
Princess Carolyn was consistently great though, as were some of the running gags

Vincent Adultman was also pretty good

The best character in the show was criminally underused

No home video release of the later seasons. Bojack is art on a platform meant for content. People would talk about it all the time if it was on DVD.
>>
>>215203012
>art
Let's not go crazy, dude le rich people have problems too dude le drugs and alcohol isn't art
>>
>>215203012
>art
no.
It's depressionslop written by gay writers who should have killed themselves when they had the chance.
>>
>>215203027
Honestly I never picked up on any of that, it just had some of the best animal puns of all time.
>>
>>215203012
>dvd
what year do you think this is
>>
>Whiny millionaire actor doesn't find purpose in being a famous celebrity
>It's cool because most of the characters are animals

It became too pretentious and up its own ass after a while
>>
>>215200885
It got ruined because of the Me Too scandals. Up until that point Bojack was a Curb Larry David style character who the audience agrees with but is constantly misinterpreted by other characters and given ill-fortune in both a comedic and a dramatic sense. But since Millennials became infected with a misandrist mind virus they made Bojack into a villain. All of the momentum the show had built up had completely lost by turning their own protagonist into a rock bottom piece of shit for no reason.

>>215203137
I'm literally watching a DVD right now. Blu Ray is good too.

What are you watching?

>>215203501
Brotherhood of the wolf.
>>
>>215202954

A little of this cunt went a very LONG way.
>>
>>215202954
They should have kept her alive and be the one he actually attempts to rape(because of drugs).
>>
>>215202650
Is this Randy inspired in a real life particular event or is it just a random joke?

Vincent Adultman is the best

this shit was fucking TERRIBLE
>>
>>215200885
It was just family guy for tumblr folx. Garbage
>>
>>215200885
>groundbreaking
No it wasn't.
Talking animals and bad puns have been done to death.
>>
>>215202429
House already knew everything from the start, he didnt need to learn anything, he just needed to find his something to live for, everyday, and he did, and thats where his connection and understanding of people was proven, and tested. That's part of what makes House so different and so able to go on for so long despite being formulaic.

It gets pretty bad past season 5 (most of season 5 is bad, but it has the best finale in all television) but remember this is a 20 plus episode show for the most part, it lasting that long at all and maintaining such quality is a miracle in itself.

Its the only episodic show I have ever enjoyed in my life.
>>
>>215200885
The creators sabotaged the last two seasons because they had a hate-boner for the HARV and made the entire show about
>men bad
in response to the metoo movement
>>
>>215201836
>>215201961
This. Watching early bojak with my friends was some of my most comfy memories
>>
>>215200885
It started off as a good show. It has an excellent depiction of depression and addiction. However, after the first few seasons it disappears up its own asshole.
>>
>>215204318
>in response to the metoo movement
Writer's strike(s) also fucked up plenty of shows.
Was there ever a movement that inspired Kino?
>>
it insists upon itself
>>
>>215204356
>It started off as a good show
nope
>>
>>215200885
Because family guy tore it a new asshole.
>>
>>215204356
>excellent depiction of depression and addiction
>>
>>215200885
Because it was stupid and unfunny and Netflix shoveled out 1000 more shows afterwards of identical trash
>>
>>215202155
>Family Guy is the only cartoon with a lasting cultural significance
Seth fucking won
>>
>>215202650
oh yea it might be a decent show if you edit out ALL Todd subplots it feels like he was ok at first but very obviously one of the writers self inserts later on
