MrMallard 07/15/20 7:42:18 AM #13:	fan357 posted... How could you possible recommend starting at season 3? Important things happen in 1 and 2. The whole show flows together. Im surprised you didnt like season 5 as much. 4 and 5 are my favorite. Best episode overall for me is Free Churro. Will Arnett after his ass off. Dude wasn't interested in watching the show, so I made a suggestion. Season 5 wasn't entirely bad, and Free Churro was a good episode. But I hated Flip, I wasn't too hot on the opioid storyline, and there was a solid stretch of three gimmick episodes in a row. One of those gimmick episodes was Free Churro, sure, but to go from a drawn out monologue episode to INT.SUB with its wacky character design reimaginings to a four-way flashback episode about Mr Peanutbutter's ex-wives - it felt like it was too much. INT.SUB is probably my least favourite gimmick episode of the series - I like the storyline, but the names and the designs got really, really old. And two of my other least favourite characters in the series are Katrina and Jessica Biel, so Mr Peanutbutter's Boos coming off the tail end of the prior two gimmick episodes felt like way too much. Bojack does good concept episodes, but three in a row really started to wear on me - if any other season of the show had extended stretches of unique concept episodes back to back like this, I didn't notice it enough to care. And outside of Free Churro - which in itself is a bit of an endurance test, artistry be damned - neither of the two following episodes were particularly remarkable. INT.SUB had a tired framing device and its gimmick was annoying after a while, and Mr Peanutbutter's Boos focused on some of my least favourite characters in the show. It doesn't seem like much, but that's a quarter of the entire season that just doesn't gel together that well, and it's on top of Bojack's opioid rage being one of my least favourite storylines in the show and Flip being my least favourite character in the show. It wasn't a bad season of television, but I preferred season 4 and the worst aspects of season 5 brought it down. --- Are you proud to be a Mayonnaise American? <cite>MrMallard posted [p:942134577] in Just finis...
