Despite its heavy subject matter, BoJack Horseman is known for its sharp writing, witty humor, and memorable characters.

Meet the characters from BoJack Horseman

BoJack Horseman

BoJack is the classic tragic, sardonic ex-sitcom star who drinks like it’s a personality trait and apologizes about things he just did five minutes later. He has the funniest, cruelest one-liners and then will ruin everything with one terrible decision — kind of exhausting but also magnetic? — and somehow you keep watching because when he cracks a little you see the real mess underneath. He tries to be self-aware (bookshelves full of unread memoirs, lots of gym memberships bought and forgotten) and then forgets to call his friends for weeks; consistency is not his strong suit. Also, he claims to hate small talk but will rant for hours about 90s sitcom wardrobe choices if you let him.

Princess Carolyn

Princess Carolyn is a whirlwind of competence and glitter — if a human (well, cat) planner could run the world she’d do it before breakfast and color-code your emotional trauma. She’s ruthlessly professional with a soft spot she hides under a perfectly tailored suit and an alarming number of sticky notes, and somehow she can make snacks and business deals simultaneously. She juggles career, romance and impending crises with the grim determination of someone who subscribes to three productivity newsletters and also cries in the shower sometimes. Oh and she’s definitely a stalker of spreadsheets but will impulsively adopt a cactus she swears she’ll keep alive (maybe).

Diane Nguyen

Diane is the painfully earnest, brilliant writer who hates fame but writes about it anyway, forever torn between idealism and the compromises that pay the rent. She thinks deeply, overthinks, then thinks some more — moral compass is big, heart is bigger, and the anxiety sometimes makes her brutally honest in a way that stings (to everyone, including herself). She’s got sneakers and notebooks and an affinity for existential rants at 2 a.m., yet she also buys novelty mugs and laughs at dumb sitcom jokes when she swears she won’t. Quirky detail: claims to be a crisp, organized person but her apartment suggests otherwise — like a curated chaos thing?

Todd Chavez

Todd is the lovable chaos generator who invents entire businesses out of leftover enthusiasm and wallet lint, the kind of friend who shows up with a ridiculous plan and somehow makes it work (or at least makes it hilarious). He’s goofy and deeply, wonderfully loyal, a master of absurd optimism who will also surprise you by being the most emotionally sane person in the room for five minutes straight. He flops between brilliant entrepreneurial bursts and couch-surfing naps, has more random costumes than sense, and is sincere about being a good person — like, aggressively sincere. Also, he insists he’s directionally challenged but somehow always finds the best brunch spots.

Mr. Peanutbutter

Mr. Peanutbutter is sunshine in a dog-shaped body — impossibly upbeat, overwhelmingly friendly, and committed to making everyone feel included, even if that sometimes means ten parties a week. He’s a walking optimism factory: actor, host, “friend to all,” and he says things that are both deeply sweet and kind of oblivious, which is the whole charm and also the Achilles’ heel. He can be annoyingly perky about feelings but will also do a weirdly perceptive thing at the worst possible moment, like catching someone mid-cry and offering a ridiculous joke that actually helps. Contradiction? He’ll celebrate every small victory with confetti and then sob over a casserole recipe for hours — true story, I think.
