[Premium Access] Bojack Horseman - 5x12 The Stopped Show - Group Reaction

Based on this discussion, it sounds like Micky and Nahid don't know much about complicated adult romantic relationships. Also, it's frustrating how they don't understand why Diane and Mr PB were so incompatible as a couple. I mean PB went out of his way to do things that make Diane uncomfortable even when she repeatedly voiced she didn't like those gestures. They broke up because he was "too romantic" is such a gigantic oversimplification of everything. He did those things because they were his idea of being romantic and not hers.

An ex-girlfriend of mine did that once after we had broken up -- come over, ask for sex, and then leave immediately afterwards and not talk about it ever again. It is more confusing in the moment than if a stranger or FWB did it. In hindsight, I understand what happened, but in the moment it kinda sucks.

I’m with Suraj and Rana on the pb/Diane thing, i mean i like him way better than her but she never promised anything besides sex and she already divorced him once lol. I would totally defend it the other way around too, people shouldn’t expect more than casual sex unless it’s explicitly promised. But Gina was the standout of this episode for me, and i was so surprised that these writers captured something most dont about survivors, which is that coming forward usually fucks you over more than anyone else, which is why so many just dont do it. Anyway it was great seeing you guys get through bojack, glad you guys picked it up!

Appreciate you guys reacting to Bojack! It's such a great show and I'm glad you all grew to love it. <3

Damn can't believe this journey has already ended. It was fun well it lasted. I wanted to put my two cents about Diane and PB. I found it quite wrong from both sides to do what they did. As for the bitch move that you guys mentioned, I kinda get what you are saying. Diane should have known that he still has feelings for her and that the time they were hanging out and boning could have easily been misunderstood by my Mr. BP. Although cheating is wrong, Diane could have stopped it from happening from the very start. She is no better than PB in my opinion.

Diane sleeping with Mr. PB and shooting down getting back together was absolutely not a “bitch move”. This whole situation was to help further prove that PB is just as big of a flawed dick as everyone else in the show.

Not gonna lie, as soon as the post-episode discussion hit the Dianne-Peanutbutter territory I just kept skipping ahead

3rd best.

Sad theory about Diane : She might die in that tunnel ! Remember the episode with the two psyiatrist, she was Princess Diana...

Takeshi Kovacs

because SHE broke up with him. He didn't want to. If it was the other way around i'd be on DIane's side.

Haha I noticed people start reacting to shows you guys are reacting too. Hmmm. Of course you don’t have a “monopoly” like you said BUT you guys are the BEST reaction channel.

Does it occur to anyone that Diane probably still loves Mr. Peanutbutter? And that she doesn't want to get back together with him because she doesn't want to get hurt by his recklessness and inconsideration since he hasn't shown her any signs that he changed.

Also, their breakup wasn’t just about the Library, it was a culmination of everything that happened that season. I mean, Diane’s house SANK underground.

Bejo

I'm 100% with Diane here. Exes have complicated feelings for each others. In a moment of weakness, loneliness, and passion they had sex. She didn't exploit him, they both did something shitty and then he took it to mean more than it did. I don't understand how she could possibly bear more responsibility than him

Neil Prospect

Mr. P was wrong in assuming they would get back togetjer again - Rana is right - it takes two to tango, and he isn't the great person he seemed to be at first. This season, as well as the last episode of season 4, shows that he is just as flawed as anyone else.

olof

"who hurt you guys?" Thank you, Rana lol.

Tiffany Tews

There's a fan theory on Reddit which claims that Diane is killed in a car crash inside the tunnel. The logic for that theory was Diane being changed to Princess Diana in the episode Int. Sub. I don't think the theory is true.
