BoJack Horseman: 10 Best Supporting Characters
5. Honey Sugarman
Is it a coincidental or very much intentional thematic spectacle that the women in this series suffer in a sadistic way, one that’s straight to the point like an uncalculated decimal.
Honey Sugarman is a veracious case of the above. She once shone bright as a star but is now exponentially less intelligible than a teenage alcoholic in the dying hours of a music festival.
As a character she is exceptional, but a wife she always too impressionable, she became the subject of something assessable, as her husband stole her humanity in a scene that’s so hard to view that it’s extensively regrettable.
As her son dies in war, she opted to become the type that is forgetful; she loses all control of her mind, not to mention her car in her crisis existential, she asked for someone to fix her in a move that made her unfortunately susceptible. That’s when her husband had her lobotomised, causing the knowledge she’d attained until that point, irreplacably inaccessible.
Her phrase is “if I had half a mind” which in reality becomes ironically eventual, making her cognitive ability societally unacceptable, as we see a beautiful person deteriorate from her form that was comprehensibly ostensible. It in turn, shaped her daughter into a foreboding monster, a monster that without this one action may have been easily preventable.
