For my final viewing of 2018,I decided that I'd end the year by watching a X-Mas special from a TV series I've not seen any eps of. Spotting it on Netflix,I decided it was time to see the Horseman ride in.
View on the ep:
Breaking the 4th wall by the episode being wraparound by BoJack watching the X-Mas special of his cancelled TV show, the script by Raphael Bob-Waksberg slyly rolls out deconstructions on the TV Comedy X-Mas specials, from recurring gags falling to land,to the (possibly Married with Children inspired?) rowdy crowd yelling out at the cast/characters. Along with the very good voice work from the main cast,Kristen Schaal gives a funny, fittingly sickly sweet voice as Sabrina, who pushes around the less than subtle "message" of the ep, sharply satirising Comedy shows which force a moral message in,as Bojack celebrates Christmas with his past X-Mas specials.
