Feel-Good Story

By this point, I groan every time Diane appears on screen. This episode is entirely skippable: Diane as its central character. She's intolerable: selfish, narrow, and self-righteous. She's basically a pure-cringe conduit for those naive and sententious Leftist sermons that most of us outgrew by sophomore year.

She has become a black hole for this show. She sucks out the life and tanks whatever narrative momentum one feels building among the other characters. Also, while the other characters are genuinely aware of their flaws, it feels like Diane only gives lip-service to self-awareness and self-deprecation. Her character doesn't seem to really believe that she's flawed. She seems to think that she's kind of awesome. Because of this, BoJack must answer to her, recount every mistake to her, etc., simply because she is somehow owed as much.

It's a Diane episode. Do yourself a favor and skip it.

We signed up for Bojack and not Diane Nyugen! We've had a Diane episode in the past and that was great but we didn't need it again. Especially a one like this which is not required at all. Couldn't care less about the other ox guy and this episode. The white whale video was cool though.

I see some other reviews here saying how this episode is a leftist echo chamber and how it is not needed, and the absolute worst. But that is not the point of this episode, nor of this show. This show, or Diane, need not align with your political inclinations. Diane feels that way, and if you really admire the character, or the show, you would be able to appreciate her growth and development without relating it to your opinions.

The show is becoming more and more realistic as the characters deal with real problems, without the luxury of being over the nose rich.

It's just sad that they cant get everything.

Like diane said, either you dont get everything you want, or you get everything you want and then you dont know what you want.

So it's basically just a far left political rant, with some Bojack sprinkled in every few minutes.
