  • ... that for an episode of BoJack Horseman after Netflix noted to production that it did not feature BoJack Horseman enough, they added a cardboard cutout of him? Source: From Entertainment Tonight [1] Quote from creator and showrunner of BoJack Horseman: "Netflix was originally hesitant about that. There was some debate about how dark this show is. You know, what can this show be? Is it just a comedy? Is it just about BoJack? Originally, there was less of BoJack in it, and one way to sway Netflix is we went back in and we made it much more about BoJack. And we made sure every act ends on a BoJack beat.

    Then, we also had this idea that BoJack brings in this cardboard version of himself into Princess Carolyn's office. That was like our subliminal way to make BoJack feel more present in the episode. Even when he wasn't there, there'd be this cardboard cutout of him. It's like a tongue-in-cheek way to attack a note, but it actually does help. I think it does feel like a BoJack episode because BoJack is there in the background saying a Jerry Maguire quote whenever anyone walks by." This is further expanded on the creator commentary of the episode: [2] 8:20 - 9:10>

I've added a comma to ALT2 but other than that I think ALT2 reads a lot better. Narutolovehinata5 (talk · contributions) 01:54, 7 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Narutolovehinata5: So is ALT2 wording fine for now? Does that mean we can move onto a full review?  Spy-cicle💥  Talk? 19:56, 9 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
