To be honest, the intergenerational trauma in bojacks family ran so deep that I think it's a good thing he didn't have kids. He'd pass that shit down to them.

A villain isn’t born, they’re made.

"All kids deserve parents" "Not all parents deserve Children..." -Wise person

This show is the perfect example of just because you have a traumatic past doesn't give you an excuse to how you still can be a bad person like when we see bojack's past we feel sorry but then when he makes unforgettable mistake we can still see him as a bad person its like a reminder that you can choose to be a better person from your past or continue to spiral downwards and we see that happing to bojack throughout the show

This show is one of the best examples of generational trauma spanning through time. Bojack never had a chance, he was shot in the foot from the day he was conceived. Joseph Sugarman destroyed Beatrice, robbed her of a mother and of a childhood, and in turn Beatrice and Butterscotch destroyed Bojack.

Holy shit, whoever voiced little Beatrice just tore my heart out. Her screaming and crying over her things being destroyed felt so real.

Crying doesn't mean your weak it just means you have been strong for to long -wise man

Poor kid I hate those people her baby was the only thing she needed

“But not my baby” “Oh especially your baby” “NOOOO” Probably the saddest pert

This show was fucked up

"Crying is stupid!" That was hilarious but rude at the same time.

"crying is stupid" "Womanly emotions" **Aggressively punches air**

this show is so fucked up and so golden. it takes all of the tough shitty parts of life and strings them into a lesson, and also a coping mechanism for getting yourself out of those shitty situations. you don't wanna end up like bojack or any of the horses in his family, but you see so much of yourself and your relatives in them. it's a blessing to have that kinda wake-up call.

"Your sickness has infected everything" *pushes him*

This made ma cry, especially because I have an emotional connection to things that don't actually have feelings but in my mind they do.

When she yelled “but not my baby!” And the dad took it from her and threw it in the fire with no emotion I felt so disrespected and upset for her I almost started crying

“ youre completely unlike my father. *he knew what real love was.* “ -Beatrice Horseman

Who had every right to become a villian

“Your sickness has affected everything” *touches him and throws in fire*

"Wait I want to hold her" "No, you'll get attached" Jesus christ I'm shedding tears

"Infect the father" Is what I've said while watching this

Now if my father ever said anything like that to me I’d be throwing hands my anger issues could never

My ass anger issues: “you’re stupid :3” *cutely pushes into fire*

“Remember what we said about crying, crying is stupid” That hit home

The fact he moves away from her when she tried to touch him breaks me inside a little

I think he’s the worst dad ever just making her suffer, bro. This made me emotional. I can feel her pain if you like I don’t even have legs anymore.😭😭😭😭

Someone once said the reason she despised BoJack is not because he was a terrible son, but because she loved him; her mother made her promise not to love anything, but her love for BoJack made her break that promise and in turn force her to act like she didn't give a damn about him.

“Don’t let your woman emotions consume you” What woman emotions? You have the same emotions too 💀 thanks for 4.9k i didnt even rlly know what i was talking abt

The way she crys how he burns her favourite teddy / her baby it makes me cry

"Crying doesnt mean your weak, it just means youve been strong for a very very very long time :(.."

Yo when I was a kid I loved the show Naruto. I drew pictures of the characters and posted them all over my walls. I collected books, and watched every episode, I have games and movies and everything. I’d always talk about it. I even got some poster board and drew a big as picture of Deidara to hang above my bed because I was so proud of it. I was at my creative peak. My mom didn’t like it because she said I was obsessed to I moved the picture to my closet wall and put up ribbons and stuff around it. When she found it she collected everything I had related to the show, threw them all in a big black bag and trashed them. I remember walking to her room and seeing the full bag sitting outside of her bedroom. I could see the manga poking out of it. Later she took away a beanie baby that a cared for because she thought that I thought it was real because I was feeding it at a restaurant like kids fucking do. I threw a fit in the parking lot and she sent me to a psych hospital. Now I don’t like doctors and I have no hobbies. I’ve been raised on medication because she didn’t know how to communicate with me. She still thinks I was crazy for liking a show. I wonder why I’ve been depressed and anxious my whole life? I wonder why I can’t make friends. What’s funny is that she has an abnormal obsession with collecting toys and both her and her lover are hoarders so I feel like I’m being buried alive in garbage. Yeah apparently I’m this way because of myself. More pills plz thanks.

This show was so much deeper than most of the shows on television. The way that it explains trauma and it’s consequences, even on a generational level, in this episode was some of the best story telling I’ve ever seen.

This made me cry so hard 😭

The “not to burn my things” dam bro 👍

To be fair, they did have to burn their things. Scarlet Fever was a very dangerous illness in the 40s and was incredibly contagious. He was still an ass in this scene tho

Sometimes reality isn’t as beautiful

The pain in her voice screaming about her doll

"Wait, come back. Please I need to hold her" As a Mom, hurt so so much

"No no wait pleas i need to hold her" *screams hard* this... THIS hits hard so hard...

Every child deserves a parent But not every parent deserves a child

"Especially your baby" was sad

This scene really hurts those of who's parents read us the velveteen rabbit as kids

"Remember what we say about crying: Crying is stupid 😊" Lives rent free in my head

Bojack Horseman: How generational trauma infects anything and everything you touch if you allow it.

"Remember what we said about crying? Crying is stupid!" Sounds like my counselor

The moment he said womanly emotions I hit my wall so hard my hand was bleeding but I’m fine now

This made me cry 😭😭😭😭😿😿😿😿

“Your sickness has infected everything” “Everything huh?” “Pushes him into the fire” GUYS I DID NOT COPY WE CAN HAVE SAME OPINIONS GEEZ

when I heard her crys for them to stop and "not my baby" it fucking ripped me up because im attached to stuffed animals and just watching it melt made me literally feel so horrified and sad because I am so attached to stuffed animals and the end literally ripped me up too, I feel destroyed and wrecked after watching this

This gives me: 'TOLD YOU ONCE I CAN'T DO THIS AGAIN.. DO THIS AGAIN, OHH.. ' song vibes..

Crying, it's not stupid. It's an emotion that none of us can control. Reply you can drawing is a motion that your sad are happy. Sometimes mad, you can't control sadness

"womanly emotions" oh yes let me just turn those off no big deal

“NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO MY BABY” the subtitles: no. my baby.

Every child deserves a parent but not all parents deserves a child -a wise person.

she didn’t deserve that all of her stuff that she loved got burned and destroyed and her doll got burned and destroyed as well she loved that doll but it got destroyed so it’s ok for her to cry and have womanly emotions so when she’s all grown up and old she took the baby away from that crying woman so that’s why she said you will get attached

Holy shit . "Remember what we said about crying? Crying is stupid." As someone who's laughed at when i cry and get irritated at home, this hit too hard.

"You don't want to end like your mother now do you" I felt that 😢

I feel so bad but this is like when my mom made me throw away my fav pillow and plush❤

Never seen this show in my life but this scene reminded me way too much of my own childhood. Ah fuck.

“No, no please I need to hold my baby” hit hard

“Crying isn’t stupid, crying means you’ve stayed strong for too long.”

Crying isn’t stupid it just means you stayed strong for too long

"Everything is infected by your desiese!" Everything huh? "Throws into fire"

Monsters aren't born, they're made.

This whole season was absolutely amazing. Her whole story was fantastically well written and seeing her mind so confused and eventually ending with the funeral episode that was perfect. She was in so much pain her whole life.

“crying is stupid“ Hit Me right in the heart 😭💔

I love the makeup skills

This is even more depressing when you realise this character jas dementia which is why most people have blurred faces. She can't remeber any more and the burning of her stuff is basically a representation of her mind burning her memories out. The plush she is holding is her happiest memory, and even that is burned eventually. Atleast that's what I interpurate from this scene

My heart jumped when he said "you don't want to end like your mother"

When she's in the retirement home with dementia bojack lies about where she is to comfort her and he asks if the icecream tastes good and she hesitantly says yes, it breaks my heart because she never ate icecream because her mother didn't want her to get fat. Something so simple and she never even got to experience that. I wish i got to see her eat it once

This is really the world saddest scene in a show

“Crying is stupid” *Revs chainsaw* “You’re about to look really stupid my dude.”

This explains so much about Beatrice… she was deliberately raised to be the way she was. To be cold and cruel, so that she can be “strong”. Let go of attachments and don’t get attached to anything (or anyone) else for the pain of losing them would be crippling. Create a wall- a barrier- so strong that no one could break your defences. It really is an incredible thing when writers make you sympathize with someone you would’ve originally started off hating.

Ive been told id find this show the most relatable thing id ever watch from someone whos known me for a half year, i couldn't imagine what i mustve been like my whole life

if you think Beatrice is the worst person in the series, don’t forget about the person that made her so evil

" Dont let your womanly emotions consume you" That is just fucked up, This show really captured the trauma and other things that happen.

Even though its a movie everytine i watch it it makes me cry so hard

Literally if they just thought and had a brain, they would understand that they are the problem and this is what made them like this. This is what made the mum want the child and why wouldn’t she want her child? That’s stupid. and I mean if I had a toy that I’d loved and I’d had it was like my child I’d be crying my heart out as well❤❤❤

I think people forget WHY we see her backstory. It’s so we can see WHY she acts the way she does. It’s important to remember there’s a reason why HE acts this way, even if it’s horrible.

“Wait wait I need to hold her!” “Please I need to hold her” Saddest part probably

Butterscotch is the true villain of bojack horseman

This honestly made me cry because my dad treated me like that when I was really young which sadly I am still in that state in the past, but gladly he’s no longer lives with me and my mom.

"i wanna have a word with him, and that word is MURDER"

The generational trauma runs so deep in Bojack's family, it's just tragic that Beatrice passed it down to him when he was born.

I literally got chills 4 times in a row in like 7 seconds

“No no no UGH” got me effin rollinrollin’😭😭😭🫵🏼

"does that feel better" What the fuck. Edit: damnnnn where did the likes come from?

"But father tell them not to burn my things!" Saddest thing

“ur sickness has infected everything” “Ok.” *nicely pushes him into the fire*

“Your sickness has affected everything!” Me: **Throws him into the fire**

I cried this is so sad,crying is not stupid it's a type of emotion not stupid

"Crying is stupid" Me: **Gets a gun in emotion**

Beatrice saved that woman’s future even though that woman fvcked her husband and disrespected her . She did for her what her parents didn’t do for her and what she couldn’t do for Bojack and that’s a redeeming quality no one else in the whole show has had

i felt that she was literally screaming and crying and they were like "oh no its fine!" as they throw away her happiest memory

I love this that’s special kind of suffering you can’t get from from physical trauma only mantle. It’s very hard to come bye very nice when you do see even fatter wanted to send in a form like this because then you can rewind and watch it to your hearts content.

Hearing the baby cry when she walks away from the birth mother brakes me all the time .

“ Your sickness has infected everything” “ I guess I have to nuke the earth” “ What you said that everything was infected so I’m just doing the right thing”

“ Crying is stupid” My brain👁️👄👁️: That dad is stupid

Crying is not stupid it shows you have emotions and you are strong

The fact the toy of Beatrice was smiling at the start but when it got burned it stopped smiling I feel bad for Beatrice, she didnt deserve that
