Have written lots of shows and directed more than a dozen, happy to send you a list of names of people I've worked with who will vouch that I've made their shows much better.

“When you look at someone through rose-coloured glasses, all the red flags just look like flags.” That’s a fucking quote man.

And right to the end, you think you know how it finishes. But, unlike other shows, he’s not getting off the hook like that. Because we all have to keep going.
I’ve seen nothing like this.

It’s about fame and generational trauma and addiction and guilt and toxic positivity and death and loneliness and abuse and the idea of ‘good trauma’ and growth and relationships and a million more things.

But you still have to live.
And I’ve just talked about the main character. There’s so much more. So much. Characters that you think are just comedic foils are actually deeply complex and deeply real.
It’s funny and devastating.

But you are also offered a glimmer of hope always. By the idea that if you can accept your flaws and make genuine efforts, change is possible. Even if it’s the hardest thing.
And even though it may not happen. And that even if it does, nobody owes you forgiveness.

And because you see his back story you do understand why he does things because humans are complicated.
And, unlike other shows, he’s not an anti hero. You aren’t invited to grudgingly think he’s still pretty cool. You are invited to find his actions disgusting. And you do.

But through the series, some of his actions are so unforgivable you see him differently.

It’s a sitcom but it’s a sitcom where things matter. Where everything matters, where it’s not enough to say something glib.
And BoJack himself is a real person (and a horse). He’s the main character so you naturally empathise with him.

Seemingly minor details come back years later, your actions matter. Characters change and grow.

You know sitcoms? Everything is wrapped up in 30 minutes, things work out in the end, big gestures solve everything and you never need learn and grow.
Not in this. Everything has consequences and nobody is left off the hook.

It’s the most heartpunchingly real thing I’ve ever seen. Even more than real life.
So it’s about a horse who was a star in a Cosby Show style sitcom in the nineties and still sees life through the prism of sitcoms. He’s stuck in the mindset he was in when he first got famous.

And it’s none of that. It’s setting you up for something different where you’ll never see what’s coming.

It’s a silly cartoon. It is. In the first few episodes you’ll think you know what this is. A lighthearted but of fun, with wacky side characters and a will they/won’t they love story. You’ll think the jokes are okay but not early Simpsons funny by any means.

If pushed, it’s probably not too much of a stretch to say it’s the best piece of art I’ve ever experienced. And I’ve seen the Michelangelo’s David and all my gigs.
I know it’s from a few years ago now and not obscure, but if you haven’t seen it I recommend it to anyone.
Why? Loads of reasons.

Prisoner: Cell Block H will always be my favourite show, it’s too tied into my life, memories and experiences for it not to be, and it’s great.
