Oh my wife recites that poem regularly, didn’t realize it was the inspiration for the animal puns and soul crushing show
I mean there were multiple inspirations. But that’s what inspired Bojack and his family specifically.
And just as cathartic as the show itself. It’s so nice feeling represented, even if it’s the depression and baggage.
Especially then..
Yeah. I think the show really helped me. And it’s a really fucking good illustrations of how things don’t work linearly at all.
