BoJack Horseman - the most depressing cartoon on TV - is thankfully back for a third Netflix series
In the second series of BoJack Horseman, Diane fails to expose beloved TV star Hank Hippopotamus for years of sexual assault against female fans. The episode, which is colloquially known as ‘the Bill Cosby episode’ because of similarities with the accusations against Cosby, has a laser focus on how sexual harassment is treated by Hollywood and the media – and how powerful stars at the centre of allegations seem to be structurally protected. The sombre ending to Diane’s crusade is that she simply can’t change anything about the entrenched prejudice in ‘Hollywoo’, the show’s version of Hollywood. As she sits down to contemplate this fact, a random man leans over and tells her: ‘Smile!’
