          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.

          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.

          The first classic of BoJack Horseman

          The episode that hooked me up the second time I tried out to watch this show. An instant classic episode that presents a dispute that BoJack has with a seal for a box of muffins, and how the controversy spreads to inconsequential stuff like the condition of a veteran of the seal, the condition of a famous star of Hollywood of the horse, or the number of muffins that had the pack (12!). The handful of commentaries that BoJack shares were actually thoughtful, and the role that the media played, exaggerating the situation, condemning BoJack, and deviating the debate, was fantastic. Parallel, the protagonist led the subplot along with Diane. They have their first progress in the project. Diane is an awesome character. She brings out the deepest feelings and memories of BoJack, and they share a great dynamic. The final scene, where BoJack opens up and tells her how his childhood was, is beautiful. Incidentally, the flashbacks showed here were very tough, proving the hard growing up that the horse had. Her mother was cold and distant from him. His father was violent and harmful, whether psychologically and physically. Mr. Peanutbutter starts a reality, "Peanut Butter and Jelly" which allowed a lot of material for jokes and a scenario to BoJack for apologizing for his behavior with McNeal. Meanwhile, Todd is in trouble again, this time with a Japanese girl that tried to swindle him and stole 80 bucks from Todd's account. It amazes me how serious problems are overlooked and the episode is built on details.

          Sometimes You Just Gotta Let Go

          Bojack has tunnel vision. He is implacable. If he were a pit bull he would never let go. This is what is endearing. There will be no happy endings. When he hears the Navy "Seal" dissing him, he ignores everyone's advice to stay off the phone. Of course, this is entirely satirical concerning the trivialities that we see has newsworthy. Once we have our sacred cows, we don't want to hear anything else.

            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.
