In the View from Halfway Down, Sebastian and Alexandra analyze the Netflix-produced, animated dark comedy, Bojack Horseman, episode by episode.
This episode covers the finale of season one. In it, Bojack wins an award and moves onto his next project, producing Secretariat. We’re sure he’s learned a lot in the past twelve episodes and that he’ll be a good wholesome person going forward.
This week’s discussion question – Secretariat’s advice for a young Bojack was to “Start running and never stop. There is nothing behind you, only what is ahead of you.” Was this good advice? How does this interact with the other theme of the episode, on the pursuit of meaning versus endless distraction from the void? Which one of those two is Secretariat’s running, and what is Bojack’s version of running?
