The scene of Bojack speeding down the empty freeway having given up on life, but suddenly stopping when he sees a rag of horses gallopping off the the sunset next to him. Chills every time

You take that Corbin Creamerman out of your F-tier this instant, young man!!

Holy shiiit??? You’re right?? How did I not notice???

Possible spoilers??

I believe there definetly is! Remember how Corbin Creamerman is a goat? And how him and Beatrice could have been perfect together, because he made her feel comforted after sharing that he has a similar relationship with his father as Beatrice? Remember how her world literally turned brighter in that moment? Before modern (veterinary) medicine was around, anxious horses used to be kept with therapeutic goats, because they had a calming effect on the horse. Thats just one example where the choice of the species was evidently on purpose (I think the writers even admitted to using species as a stylistic choice but dont quote me on that as I have no source to back me up rn), but lets look at Bojack.

Horses are amazing at remembering bad events. Besides all the obvious trauma, remember how Bojack tells Dr. Champ how much he hates horses because of his abusive parents? That is exactly how a horse reacts after having abusive owners, that is, completely avoidant of members of the species who abused it.

As prey animals, horses are very perceptive of their surroundings and will react with very fast responses. Bojack displays this by constantly overanalyzing the actions of those around him. His walls are up constantly. Once he finds something that might be a threat, he will immediately drop whatever he is doing at the time and impulsively attempt to stop that threat. See him sabotaging Todds Rock Opera and Dianes wedding, abandoning his mother in a home or the events leading up to Ginas strangulation.

But the biggest telltale sign to me is how Bojack is constantly running away. Horses are flight animals (in the fight or flight way, not the bird way obv), which perfectly correlates with how Bojack is constantly running from his responsibility to finally take accountability for his horrible actions. Be it with substances, meaningless sex, going to his families house in Michigan, escaping to LA, and and and. If a horse feels trapped in a situation it cannot escape, it will kick, bite and lash out, becoming a danger to those around it. Ana Spanakopita put it perfectly in her lifeguard anecdote. Bojacks whole “point” is that he is incapable of bringing himself to face any issue, no matter how small, but runs away from them instead.

I’m actually kind of impressed at myself about how much of this show I remember.

TLDR: Yeah there is, mainly because of how horses are flight animals and Bojack being incapable of facing his demons, but choosing to run from them in various ways instead.

Lol thats Gina
