BoJack Horseman Season 5 Confirmed By Netflix
Fans of animated alcoholic anthropomorphic equines have a reason to celebrate, since Netflix’s ultra-irreverent, sometimes-satirical, animated series BoJack Horseman just nabbed itself a renewal for Season 5!
Netflix made BoJack Horseman Season 5 official today in a fourth-wall-breaking, BoJack Horseman kind of way, citing the assertions of its message-bombarding “Clingy Execs” to make the announcement, accompanied by a video. The announcement arrives less than two weeks after Season 4 made its debut on September 8. The Season 5 renewal, tellingly, comes as the still-fresh Season 4 currently carries a 96% approval on Rotten Tomatoes.
BoJack Horseman launched in 2014, depicting the ambivalent, alcohol-addled title character in a horse (Will Arnett) who formerly starred in a hit TV sitcom in the 1990s, as he muddles his way through post-stardom life. Joined on this journey by human pal Todd (Aaron Paul) and his agent and ex-lover – a cat – Princess Carolyn (Amy Sedaris), BoJack is perpetually planning a carrot of comeback that is typically just out of his reach on the proverbial tied stick of life. The series also features voice co-stars Alison Brie as Diane Nguyen and Paul F. Tompkins as Mr. Peanutbutter.
The series was created by Raphael Bob-Waksberg, who has been propelled to grander projects, notably tapped to re-write the script to the 2019-scheduled The Lego Movie Sequel. Bob-Waksberg serves as an executive producer alongside Steven A. Cohen and Noel Bright, as well as voice stars Will Arnett and Aaron Paul.
The BoJack Horseman Season 5 announcement did not come with a release date. However, the series typically sticks to late-summer, early-fall release windows and we can safely expect it arrive around that time in 2018.
