He seems to be the only truly happy person in the show and he gives a few soundbites and then never appears again in any detail.

Just wondering what kind of philosophy/lifestyle he is supposed to be endorsing.

    Cuddlywhiskers is dabbling in a kind of simplified and superficial Hollywoo version of “Eastern Wisdom.” Forsake attachments, live simply, etc. Pretty easy to do at your private country retreat.

    IMO it’s sort of one or two rungs up from Bojack’s self-help podcast.

    There’s a core of truth to what he’s saying. You have to acknowledge your misery and choose happiness. But I don’t get the impression he’s really digging any deeper than that.

    There are many paths to happiness, but you have to be willing to take the steps. Cuddlywhiskers is just making his way down his path the best he can, like anybody else.
