Never too much of those, man!

The fourth season of BoJack Horseman is the darkest yet, but that doesn't mean that it's not entertaining or funny. The show's strength lies in the way it combines the three, the outcome of the mix being one of the best series airing right now. It handles throwaway jokes and elaborate, season-long plot developments with the same gusto, exhibiting great respect for the viewer, who feels rewarded for the time invested in watching.

There's rarely a moment of dullness, and the writing is never half-hearted. The show is full of great, gripping moments. Some of them are instant, almost spontaneous, and require no preparation on the part of the viewer, while others take a whole season to reveal, and some time to actually 'get'. That's why the show is so watchable and interesting to analyze.

This list clearly doesn't include all of the eye-raising moments taking place during the season, since one episode of BoJack Horseman is ideally a string of these, one happening after another. Instead, it focuses on the key and unique ones, which really make BoJack, well, BoJack, and when there was plenty of Horsin' around.

12. Princess Carolyn Pushes Ralph Away

Throughout the first three seasons Princess Carolyn was trying to find the perfect man. She was burying herself in her work, because she couldn't find anyone suitable for her, or at least that's what she's been saying to herself. Turns out that in reality Princess Carolyn is unable to be in a relationship, because for her work always comes first.

She had five miscarriages, kept her old apartment, and lied to her fiancee about both. Yes, Ralph is a mouse, which complicates their relationship, but he really cares about Princess Carolyn, yet his every attempt to help makes her reject him even more. Just like BoJack, she also can't hold on to a good thing.

The emotional strain suffered during the fifth miscarriage seems too much for her and in order to spare her loved one the pain, she pushes him out of her house. She's been so strong and independent for so long, it's as if she doesn't believe a gentle and calm character like Ralph would be able to keep up with her.
