A multidisciplinary study of BoJack Horseman’s central concerns
Edited by Harriet E. H. Earle, this essay collection approaches BoJack Horseman as a sustained subject for television and cultural analysis. Contributors from multiple fields examine how the series uses its Hollywood setting and human-and-anthropomorphic ensemble to engage questions of mental health, masculinity, and celebrity. The volume centers the show’s treatment of these subjects while also considering how characters and viewers encounter them, offering several scholarly perspectives rather than a single interpretive argument. It is a focused companion for thinking beyond the series’ comic framework and toward the social issues explored across its six-season run.
Good fit for readers who enjoy
- Fans of BoJack Horseman interested in academic analysis of the series
- Students and scholars of television, comedy, and popular culture
- Readers exploring media representations of mental health, masculinity, and celebrity

When the final episode of BoJack Horseman aired on Netflix in 2020, it was to massive critical and popular acclaim. Across six seasons, viewers followed the exploits of a washed-up sitcom actor and his wacky collection of friends, set against the fading glitz of Hollywood and played out through a distinct cast of both human and anthropomorphic characters.
Before the series even concluded, it was clear that it would be the topic of research and discussion long beyond its relatively short run. This collection brings together essays about the ways this series handles complex and highly nuanced topics within three main themes: mental health, masculinity, and the perils of celebrity. With contributions from researchers across a broad range of fields, these essays offer a variety of perspectives on these themes, how they are represented within the show, and the ways that both characters and viewers engage with them.
