Meet the characters from BoJack Horseman

BoJack Horseman

BoJack is a washed-up ’90s sitcom star with the kind of sardonic, self-sabotaging charm that makes you groan and root for him at the same time. He’s cynical, sarcastic, and constantly wrestling with regret — like, a lot — but also weirdly haunted by a soft core that only shows up when he’s alone with an old VHS or a terrible takeout milkshake. He sabotages relationships, drinks too much (or so he says), and is both painfully honest and delusionally selfish in equal measure. There’s a softness in him—he keeps relics of his past and sometimes (don’t tell anyone) reads the back of cereal boxes for comfort—so he’s not just nihilism and snark. Complicated, angry, funny, somehow tragic and occasionally lovable — BoJack is the kind of trainwreck character you can’t stop watching even when you know it’ll hurt.

Princess Carolyn

Princess Carolyn is a powerhouse agent/cat-with-a-planner who treats chaos like a craft project and wins on sheer force of will. Relentlessly organized (HER COLOR-CODED BINDERS ARE LEGEND), fiercely loyal, and emotionally complicated, she’s the one who will book your career path and cry into a latte later. Her life is two parts calendar, one part furious hustle, and a surprising slice of soft domesticity — she has like a secret knitted blanket or something, I swear. She keeps her vulnerabilities behind spreadsheets and lipstick but they peep through when she’s with people she trusts, which is rare but very real. Ambitious, tender, sharp as a tack, and occasionally terrible at saying no to both love and a risky deal — she is exhausted and thriving, sometimes both at once.

Diane Nguyen

Diane is the brainy, moral center who tries so hard to be principled it becomes this beautiful, messy struggle. She’s a writer — contemplative, world-weary in the best way — always analyzing everything and sometimes getting stuck in her own internal monologues. She cares about justice and truth (and also has a terrible habit of smoking when stressed, maybe? Or was that a phase…), which makes her thoughtful but sometimes judgmental. She’s blunt, tender, complicatedly private but also prone to oversharing on nights she shouldn’t, and has that weird thing where she hates LA but also writes love letters to it. More thoughtful than she looks, constantly questioning, a little brittle, and absolutely not above a late-night existential rant — Diane is the friend who will make you think and feel guilty in the best possible way.

Todd Chavez

Todd is pure whimsical chaos in the shape of a lanky guy who accidentally starts businesses and then forgets to tell you he’s entrepreneurial now. He’s endlessly optimistic, very goofy, and maybe the most loyal person on the show, in a weird lazy-but-earnest way. He loves cartoons, weird inventions, and has like a million half-formed projects (a pop-up restaurant that served nothing but cereal? yes), which makes him delightful and annoyingly unreliable sometimes. He’s also quietly thoughtful — surprisingly insightful when you least expect it — and somehow keeps a weird moral compass despite being directionless. Essentially: a lovable mess, sincere, ridiculous and deeply human; the kind of friend who’ll crash on your couch and help you move a couch at 3 a.m. while humming show tunes.

Mr. Peanutbutter

Mr. Peanutbutter is sunshine bottled into a charmingly clueless celebrity who treats life like one long tail-wagging hug. He’s absurdly optimistic, relentlessly friendly, and very into parties and on-brand merch (he totally has a jumper with his own face on it, I’m sure). He can be shallow — yes — and impulsive, but there’s a sincere, goofy generosity to him that’s almost disarmingly big-hearted. He marries a lot of people (don’t ask about the marriage spreadsheets) and jumps into projects with maximum enthusiasm and minimal planning, which is both the problem and the charm. Basically: big smile, big energy, inconsistent boundaries, and a heart that’s genuinely trying even when he’s hilariously clueless about feelings.
