Best of 2020 (Behind the Scenes): How BoJack Horseman showed us 'The View from Halfway Down'
Tyler Aquilina
The final half-season of BoJack Horseman
, which dropped on Netflix in January, saw the titular equine antihero spiral away from the redemption arc of the season’s first half. BoJack, a recovering alcoholic, former sitcom star, and frequently terrible person (or horse), saw the sins of his past exposed to all of Hollywood, became a pariah, and relapsed, ultimately confronting death in the series’ haunting penultimate entry, “The View from Halfway Down.” Here, episode scribe Alison Tafel explains how the BoJack
writers cracked one of the year’s most acclaimed half-hours of TV.
