          Saying what you think, EVEN when it's not what the majority thinks

          I liked this episode, but it felt slower than the pilot.

          It has a good plot and I support Bojack's ideology of saying what he thinks, EVEN when it's not what everyone thinks.

          I don't think this episode is better than the first one, but it is more funny and has better jokes. It completely changed my mood from the way I was coming from the first episode.

          Besides the jokes and plot, it reveals more of Bojack's personality. When Diane tries to stop Bojack from calling the news, and he's alredy talking with the reporter doing exactly the opposite of her advice.

          Also, we can see Bojack's self-respect at the beginning of the episode. Taking home a girl who was mean to him at the bar.

          A mediocre but pretty punny episode

          BoJack Horseman once again doesn't have much realistic emotion. It has a very cheap plot, though it does involve some good satire. It does start to show BoJack as a somewhat bad person, which is well done for the most part. This episode has a lot of puns, and while many are funny, like MSNBSea and the Seal that is a Navy Seal, some are just excessive. Overall, a cheap plot and a little emotion combined with some good satire and puns make a mediocre episode - 5/10.

          Enjoyable balance of humor and commentary!

          While i did not hate the first episode, this was the one that really grabbed my interest and I descided to just keep watching!

          It is obvious that BoJack is not a perfect individual and he really lives in the shadow of his glory days, Wishing he could be famous again! Something the first episode adresses as well!

          In this episode we get a quite a humorous situation when he calls "dips" on some muffins, and ends up in TV! Things just escelate from here to absurdity with some nice commentary on media! Also great refferences to real famous people!

          I really enjoy the absurd humor, while at the same time it can get serious when it needs to!

          Better than pilot

          After the whole mess of unfitted expositions in last episode, we got an episode whom actually has a plot. The behaviour pattern of bojac between his real self and his persona is the powerhouse of the plot. But, this episode not grade A. Todd,s subplot have a thematic relationship with main plot but it's not useful to the story. It seems that writers still don't find a way to introduce PC properly. And the Bojack arc is little vague and forced.

          Famous People

          So I definitely enjoyed this more than the first episode, and we're already getting into crazy territory. I'm loving how they portray the news station, as well Neal McBeal, criticizing BoJack while he's doing the same thing. It shows how stupid the media is sometimes, and while BoJack was in the right in my opinion, he was just favored out. But I like how he opened up to Diane in the end.

            Tom Jumbo-Grumbo: Well, BoJack, surely, even you would agree that the troops are heroes.

            BoJack Horseman: I don't agree to that. Maybe some of the troops are heroes but not automatically, I'm sure a lot of the troops are jerks; Most people are jerks already, and it's not like giving a jerk a gun and telling him it's O.K. to kill people suddenly turns that jerk into a hero.
