Plot

edit

Returning to Hollywoo, BoJack learns from Princess Carolyn that the Secretariat film was finished without him, with Lenny Turteltaub replacing the real BoJack with a CGI version. He manages to make enough money for the establishment of "The BoJack Horseman Orphanage" as part of a promise he made at Herb Kazzaz's funeral. Princess Carolyn and Rutabaga Rabbitowitz are close to opening their own agency. After moving out of BoJack's house, Todd finds himself trapped in the improv comedy cult.[2]

Reception

edit

"Out to Sea" received mixed reviews from critics. Caroline Framke of AV Club gave the episode a "B" grade, saying the episode "feels like a series finale, but not necessarily a satisfying one".[3] In Paste, Julie Kliegman notes the series' ending, saying "for such a dark series of episodes, the second season ends on a surprisingly high note."[4] Likewise, Screen Rant's Kevin Yeoman praises the finale, writing that the closing scene "brings what was an incredibly solid second season to a close by allowing all characters ... to catch a glimpse of the light at the end of the a long tunnel, rather than continue to stare into the abyss that is their uniquely unsatisfactory lives."[5]
