Bojack just is who he is, the good and the bad, and the only way to stop being who he is is to stop being completely, and that fact is also both good and bad, but mainly it's just inevitable

This feels like the exact opposite extreme, a position of pure misanthropic nihilism which is both useless and not imo terribly tenable. "People never change" feels empty and self justifying too.

It may come off that way trying to summarize it in comparison to another thing, but Nothing could be further from the themes of the show Bojack Horseman than that people can’t or shouldn’t change. It’s so in depth about the struggle, necessity, & self power in change

The darkest realization about the series finale is that the other characters *have* changed for the better and that's *why* they've abandoned our protagonist as a lost cause

I also thought it was kind of a hopeful ending too because now with no more training wheels, Bojack will be his own responsibility finally

The whole thing is that the money and fame is what's always held him back and kept him from having to change, even as it's also been the solace that's kept him going and protected him from consequences And now he's got the money and fame back "People have short memories"

Would you say that it was the loss of his status as a rich celebrity, or the loss of his (somewhat imposed) connection to Hollyhock that finally pushed him over? Not that it’s not both, either!

Yeah it's losing everything at once Hollyhock kind of represented the opportunity to start over and just be a normal decent guy with a normal family Which was never a realistic fantasy, but it's also one he really badly fucked up

That assessment is really accurate I think. Like the last pillar of his identity was the reserved belief that being in her life made him a good or worthwhile or beloved person, but that was never fully based in who Hollyhock was, only what she signified to him
