Bojack's road trip montage

[lpld]

You know a show gets real when they play the intro music

[eukrubm]

If you showed this scene to someone without any context, they would probably think it’s about a celebrity just trying to show off his money and not the aftermath of one of the most soul crushing moments in the show

[nibbahours]

Therapist: So why are you sad?

There's this show about a talking

[Onionmaster]

As cool as Bojack looks on top of his boat during this montage, I bet he's hiding his true emotions under those sunglasses, the pain of knowing he screwed everything up again and has to go home to the place he hates.

[aderose]

I love how the boat says Escape From LA, when he is heading back home.

[HudzunDunDunDun]

a lot of people fail to realize that in bojacks view, he just lost the final thing that could've made him happy. He lost his chance at making a quality secretariat movie, he lost his chance of rebuilding the bridge with him and herb, he lost his chance with diane, he lost his chances with wanda, and now, he just lost his chances of a peaceful life with charlotte. his stone cold expression is a lot more depressing when you realize that this was his reaction to that fact that he could never be happy ever again.

Being an ex drug addict and rewatching this show sober actually made me cry and I believe that says something about the quality of this show

[scottjohnnyhelgemoaune]

Probably one of the best episodes of the show

[Faheed]

When the music hit, i literally jawdropped for that was the music and it was perfect.

[squawkietalkie]

this episode is exactly why this show is full of animal people. this would be just too hard to watch if bojack looked like an actual 50 year old man

[otaku-chan]

This scene was powerful. Bojack unable to let go of his feelings for Charlotte, trying to act out all his regrets of not getting to know her 30 years ago by allowing himself to get too close to her daughter, heading back to the one place he didn't want to go, in a boat he had to buy just for the lie that he didn't drive to New Mexico to see Charlotte, knowing that no matter where he went _he_ was the tar, and he'd never not be able to mess up.

[dinolover]

I know the reason behind this scene and all, but how fucking cool would it be to just be on the open road riding in a fucking boat? Bojack with his beer, cig, and glasses just tie it all together for a nice ass roadtrip back home.

[manamaster]

This was the best moment in the entire series, such a powerful story arc that ends with this montage.

[JohnSmith-hdgz]

At 0:42 they managed to put a tongue twister on the side of the semi: “Stoat’s boat totes tows boats.” This show is amazing

[ThatkidwithCP]

Especially if you've dealt with depression everything about this show stays with you. The animation. The music. The dialogue. The "tears of a clown" comedy. The character arcs.

[edwardhernandez]

I was really bumed out that the intro didnt play in this episode but right when i heard the music, i was filled with glee. :D

[Asher_Te_Knight]

I can't stop watching this scene. I don't think I'm going to stop. Someone please help.

[ZachRiley]

I don’t know why I love this scene so much. I think it is because we finally see bojack opening up, being kind, and parental, we get to see an alternate path. But then you play that song that we have for so long associated with bojack waking up and going through his day drunk, and a jerk, and a douche, and depressed, and miserable. And it is almost like we are getting back an old friend when he had the hardened criminal look, with the glasses, the cigarette, the beer, and the fact that he is on a boat. And even though nothing like nothing like it has happened before, we feel like bojack is up to his comical shenanigans once more. It gives me chills sometimes. Comparable to the ending scene of the second to last episode of breaking bad.

[mfisrae]

The way he goes back is perfect. It’s like when a character slowly walks away from a explosion he caused.

[fragileparadox]

Notice how the sitcom intro play in the beginning to represent his expectation for a sitcom-happy-ending lifestyle then the normal intro plays to represent his grounding back to reality and his old ways
