I love Bojack Horseman but I definitely get what you mean at the same time. A while ago having not watched the show for a while I did a solo rewatch of season 4 (no idea why I chose season 4 in particular or in isolation but there you go.) After finishing it I sat there for a few moment’s realising the mental toll it had taken on me and the mood and heaviness it left me with.
There are hundreds of shows that deal with dark subject matter and even more that deal with ostensibly darker themes than Bojack but there’s no other show that tapped directly into my own emotions and made me feel the twists and turns of the show rather than just view them. It’s definitely not for everybody.
I think it’s great that you appreciated it despite your reservations.
