  • I don’t understand why people have this idea that being enthusiastic about a cartoon is ridiculous

    I think it’s because they think it’s childish or because they’re scared of being perceived as childish. People grew up watching cartoons and have trouble looking past the fact that it’s just a medium. Videogames aren’t just Mario and cartoons aren’t just Tom and Jerry. Comic books aren’t just picture-books. They’re mediums that allow you to tell a story that you just can’t tell with live-action. Brockmire does a remarkable job, but even it can’t tell the story in a way that Bojack can.

    We’re all guilty of our biases, but closing ones self off from entire mediums because of them is just sad. I’m not saying it makes them sad people, but it does make me sad that they’d outright refuse to listen to the story because of it.
