Prickly Muffin

Sarah Lynn, the tender girl of Horsin' Around, 12 years later sex-symbol, is 24 years later an authentic disaster. As well as his fictitious dad, she is now a ruined shadow of what she was, manipulative, far away from her glory days, and is now misspending her richness in parties and drugs. Her downfall is evident, reaching the point of being the guestroom of BoJack, and falling even lower after their farewell, admitting she was never to grow and that she was going to surround with sycophants and enablers. I quite like how their dynamic was displayed here. It's like if Sarah features BoJack, while the horse occupies the role of his close people. BoJack playing the role of a permissive father was actually funny. He gives her a lot of ridiculous authorizations and permissions, even letting her destroy the house. However, the scene where they pass time together was kinda refreshing. I laugh out loud when Bojack simulates the credits rolling after that. I was not able to foresee the big twist: now they have sex. That was an odd decision that made me leave the show for a second time, but that I don't mind anymore. Todd and Diane played a supportive function. The former, being the of the voice of the reason and the mature one, was actually great. I uniformly liked the joke of the comparisons between his situation and Sarah's at BoJack's house. Princess Carolyn shines approaching Sarah and making her take the bait in a plan to cheat Vanessa Gekko. The endings, with the paparazzi birds taking photos of BoJack and Sarah having sex, was a clever opening of a future storyline. Not one of the best episodes, though.

I love Sarah Lynn as a character. She is interesting, complex, and very fun. But her introduction does not show any of this. She, quite frankly, comes off as a jerk here. A decent satire of Hollywood and child stardom, yes, but not a very complex or likable character. This really drags the episode's rating down a couple of points for me, which is sad, because there are so many other good things about this episode, especially with BoJack's character. For one, you begin to see how terrible he really is. In the first two episodes, you just see him being kind of petty and jokingly bad. Now you can see him doing some truly awful things. At the same time, you can now see his sympathetic side. He isn't fully fleshed out yet, but he is now interesting, and you can see some of his character motivations.

Overall, a good episode for BoJack made worse by a bad introduction to Sarah Lynn - 6/10.

I genuinely love that the writer finally show me the glimpse of real princess carolyn. But still I'm not satisfy with episode. The story world is still so much flat and typical. And the plot is to thin for its context, the story is not moving forward if characters explain it to us. But there is no significant plot-point to accent it with this deep explanations of character's patterns or motivations.

So we get the first appearance of Sara Lynn, who had a tough time with BoJack as a kid, and she eventually gets like almost every media whore out there, craves attention, replaced later, and fallen into a deep place. Then we get BoJack saying everything is society's fault, which is funny because sometimes, it is.

This wasn't the best, but this is the only season that wasn't so overall, not bad.

Wasn't really funny but was interesting to watch. Decent episode.
