BoJack Horseman: Every Season Finale Ranked Worst To Best

As a TV show, particularly in the animated genre, BoJack Horseman is utterly unique. Who would have thought that a cartoon about an anthropomorphic horse could have delved so deeply into the tough and real issues that it did? And to do it so well?

Detailing the ups and downs, let’s be honest mostly downs, of BoJack's midlife years in Hollywoo, each season of the show was very different. Whether based on where his career had taken him, or whose life he had ruined at the time, all six seasons told a very different story. As with any other TV show, the culmination of these stories was the season finale.

Usually the 12th episode of the season, or the 16th in the case of the last ever episode, there is always a lot to achieve from such a chapter. Both finishing the current season’s arc, while simultaneously kicking off the next season's could be an incredibly difficult job, particularly when the stories are so in-depth as BoJack Horseman.

However the show produced outstanding episodes at the end of all six seasons, rated in a range of 8.4 to 9.6 on IMDb. While all of them are great, some are of course better than others, going through emotional rollercoasters and usually leaving the audience in a strange feeling of both satisfaction and depression.

It gets easier. You have to do it every day, and that’s the hard part, but it gets easier. These are the words of encouragement BoJack was given in this episode, and though the Jogging Baboon was talking about running, this was the lesson for the titular character on the path to becoming a better person.

Fresh off his escape from L.A, in which he fled Hollywoo out of growing pressures and taking big hits in his home and work life, caused a teenager to have alcohol poisoning and almost slept with Penny, BoJack had essentially hit rock bottom.

Even before his two month sabbatical from home, he had let Todd down by skipping the improv graduation that meant so much to him. However, this was where BoJack, for arguably the first time, actively tried to be a better person.

He saved Todd from the Giggleship in an attempt to salvage their friendship and allow himself to actually feel good about himself. This was quite a turnaround for BoJack from the previous handful of episodes, and was accented by a genuinely touching moment of development between him and Todd.
