As someone who firmly believes that BoJack Horseman is one of the greatest television shows of the 21st century (and probably of all time), I was beyond excited to hear that BoJack’s creator and showrunner Raphael Bob-Waksberg was back at Netflix with a new series. Sure, there aren’t any anthropomorphized characters in this one – […]
In the past year, various series have premiered on broadcast television and streaming platforms with LGBTQ characters and diverse casts. While there is still progress going forward, as every single major studio had failing, poor, or insufficient ratings for LGBTQ-inclusive films in 2019, according to the recent Studio Responsibility Index released by GLAAD, there were […]
2020 is finally on its way out (and not a moment too soon for anyone), which means it’s time for that time honored holiday tradition: Critics’ Top Ten Lists! As we all spent more time on our sofas watching TV this year than any of us thought we would, I suspect many of you will […]
All good things come to an end and that is the case for Bojack Horseman with the second part of the final season. Bojack has overcome his alcohol addiction and has become a professor at Wesleyan University. His new job means he can get away from the corrupting influence of Hollywoo and spend time with his half-sister. […]
What do we owe to each other? A loaded question, to be sure. But two exquisite comedy series tried their darnedest to answer it, each coming up with essentially the same response: Everything. If you haven’t had the chance to watch The Good Place or BoJack Horseman, this is the part of the piece where […]
The temperature has plummeted (to shockingly low depths here in Chicago, starting my annual ritual of wondering why I continue to subject myself to this weather), the holidays and 2020 are just around the corner, which means it’s time for that time-honored annual tradition: The Critic Best of List. 2019 was an interesting year for […]
With the 2010s coming to a close, it’s my duty as a TV critic to create a Top 10 List of the best TV shows of the decade. Seriously. Check all the other entertainment sites. We’re all doing it. (And, if I’m honest, we’re all putting a lot of the same shows on our lists […]
“I really want BoJack to be ok.” That’s the sentence I said out loud immediately after finishing episode eight of BoJack Horseman’s sixth and final season (the second half of the season will drop on January 31, 2020 on Netflix). Despite my wish, I’m not sure that’s in the cards for BoJack, who’s own (often […]
Perhaps the best compliment I can give Big Mouth is that when I reached the end of season three, I didn’t realize it and was utterly crushed that there wasn’t another episode to watch. It’s rare to find a show that is both so smart and so soulful – that isn’t afraid to really go […]
Amazon’s new rotoscoped series Undone sounds pretty amazing on paper: strong cast (that includes Bob Odenkirk, Rosa Salazar, and Constance Marie), really awesome animation effects (seriously, the rotoscoping is smooth and cool), and strong pedigree in the form of co-creator Raphael Bob-Waksberg (who is also the showrunner and creator of the sensational BoJack Horseman). But […]
