10. Clowns With Rabies

PB Livin', the company co-founded by Mr. Peanutbutter and Todd, is back in business after Mr. Peanutbutter backs down from the race for governor. Knowing their previous crazy ideas, it's only fitting that their latest would be even more, well, special. Claiming that children would be less afraid of dentists if the latter would put on a happier face, the two start a business of clown dentists. The problem is that dentists don't know anything about being funny, while the clowns aren't experts on dental hygiene.

The result is obviously catastrophic and the clowns are released into the woods, where they have to lead a rather unfunny existence. Unfortunately, after an argument with a raccoon one of them catches rabies and infects the rest of the face-painted population.

Leave it to BoJack's writers to take things over the top, but not lose the humor included in the original idea - clown dentists were too promising to simply abandon in the woods. Whether it's pasta cooking in the warm ocean or rabies-infected clown dentists, the show knows how to mock blockbuster-like threats and underline their absurdity.
