  • I’m not even saying that Bojack is worse than Hank, just that other characters in the show are equally complicit to some truly horrible behavior, and it’s not something unique to Wanda.

    Literally everyone in the episode was pressuring Diane to drop it except ironically enough Princess Carolyn, one of the biggest enablers in the show.



  • Probably because apart from that she’s generally pretty kind/caring, looks to see the best in people, is emotionally intelligent and pretty wise, and despite the dysfunction, her relationship with Bojack is weirdly cute.

    Those are the reasons I like her at least. The Hank thing is pretty shitty, but I mean it’s not like PC, Diane, Mr PB, and Todd don’t all to some extent kind of enable Bojack.




  • In all fairness, PC tried to give her a voice, hooked her up with someone willing to take her story, and she wasn’t able to get any of the victims to tell their stories, and instead got ambushed by Hank when she tried to meetup with one of them.

    If she’s not able to reach any of the victims for comment, I’m not really sure what she’s even supposed to do at that point. Like there isn’t really anything for her to write, and she’s been receiving death threats over this, it kinda seems like by the time PB says this, she’d done everything she reasonably could.

    It’s not like she doesn’t do other things when in her power to help women through her writing.



  • It’s a dumb cartoon gag that Princess Carolyn goes along with because she’s a cartoon character. Like a lot of Todd’s actions and schemes, I don’t think there’s meant to be any deeper meaning because they never discuss any repercussions of their relationship and it’s not really something that could happen in real life.

    She doesn’t want to interact with Bojack, so she rebounds with the first guy she sees, who, for comedic effect, is really three kids in a trench coat. She’s oblivious to this fact because it’s supposed to be funny that Bojack is the only one who sees this. There are never any sex scenes or lines implying that they had sex both because it would be off-putting to the audience and would ruin the running gag. Notice how they never really even kiss, the only thing they ever do is say that they’re in a relationship, whereas all of her other partners except Judah it is implicitly or explicitly stated she had sex with them.

    The only time any sexual attraction is even mentioned is when she asks Bojack if he can imagine Vincent in a swimsuit, which again, is meant to be her being oblivious.
