7.8/10

Perfectly good episode. Two people dealing with saying "I love you" is standard Friends-esque sitcom-ness, but the autoerotic asphyxiation twist to it made that storyline at least...weirder. Mr. PB's guilelessness in having no money and no job was amusing enough. The real meat of the episode came from Princess Caroline. She's never been my favorite character on the show, but they not only cooked up a strange but funny storyline for her, but they managed to wring a bit of pathos out of it as well. Good stuff.

Comedically, a lot of this worked as well. Todd's still hilarious, even when sparsely used, and the brick jokes like the elephant in the room or Wanda telling J.D. Sallinger, "I love it, and I don't use that term lightly" or Caroline's boss longing for a bagel catcher all revealed some nicely setup comedy.

F in the chat for those two.

This was an interesting episode. I hope Diane and Mr Peanutbutter don't go homeless and I'm getting suspicious of Rutabaga. He's just been there for Carolyn, and now he's divorcing with his wife. Why does he help out PC and not asking for anything in return?

The hanging subplot was messed up. I'm glad Wanda gave BoJack some good advice in the end.

IT'S GOOD.

TECHNICAL SCORE: 7/10
ENJOYMENT SCORE: 7.5/10

«Caroline, you are the star of a movie. This is the part of the movie where you get your heart broken. Where the world tests you, and people treat you like shit. But it has to happen this way. Otherwise, the end of the movie, when you get everything you want, won’t feel as rewarding. There are assholes out there, but in the end, they don’t matter. Because this movie’s not about them. It’s never been about them. All this time, the movie’s been about you.»

«Caroline, tu sei la star del film. E questa è la parte del film in cui ti spezzano il cuore. Dove il mondo ti mette alla prova e la gente ti tratta di merda. Ma è proprio così che deve andare. Altrimenti alla fine del film, quando avrai tutto quello che vuoi, non ti sentirai gratificata. È pieno di stronzi là fuori, ma alla fine non contano niente. Perché i protagonisti del film non sono loro, non lo sono mai stati. Dall’inizio del film la protagonista sei sempre stata tu!»

It was very very insisting on the auto-erotic asphyxiation thing. Why not, that was a fun plot.
