History Awesome / BoJackHorseman

-->'''[=BoJack=]''': Charlotte, I'm--
-->'''Charlotte:''' (interrupts) Don't. Don't you ''dare''. If you are not out of my driveway in thirty minutes, I will call the police. And if you ''ever'' try to contact me or my family again, I will '''[[PrecisionFStrike fucking]]''' kill you.

[[AC:A Quick One, While He's Away]]

** At first, it seems the strike will fall apart with little progress made, because Princess Carolyn and Lenny Turtletaub coax them back into work by promoting them. Then Princess Carolyn has a HeelRealization, backs out of the exploitative deal with Stuart, and passes Stuart a number to call. That turns out to belong to ''[[TheBusCameBack Judah]]'' (framed in the most angelic light possible!) to stand up for his fellow assistants. His organization finally gets the strike to end with actual compromises made, which continue in the next episode The Face of Depression.

* Princess Carolyn pulling the trigger on a ChekhovsGun when she finds out that Rutabaga hadn't actually gone through the divorce, and [[WhatAnIdiot told her that he's really her best option at 40 years old]], despite his being married. This prompts her to dump him as a partner both romantically and in their business, as he'd filed everything in ''her'' name to avoid his wife's divorce lawyers.

* Mr. Peanutbutter stepping up and being the first to restrain a psychotic [=BoJack=] to stop him from strangling Gina. After trying and failing to change himself in an earlier episode to prove that he can be a "tough guy", he shows real toughness and courage by being his usual kind self and restraining [=BoJack=].

* The sheer fact the show-runners managed to get ''[[spoiler: [[UsefulNotes/KnightFever Sir]] [[Music/TheBeatles Paul]] [[Music/PaulMcCartney Freaking McCartney]]]]'' to cameo in the episode.

* Charlotte's reaction to [=BoJack=] [[spoiler: almost sleeping with her daughter]]. She [[MamaBear immediately steps in to seperate Penny from [=BoJack=]]], and orders her former friend to leave her property in the most [[TranquilFury chilling fashion]]:

* After spending most of the series having [=BoJack=] treat him like a ButtMonkey, Todd gives an ''epic'' TheReasonYouSuckSpeech to [=BoJack=], after finding out he [[spoiler:slept with Emily, Todd's love interest.]]

* Todd [[spoiler:coming out to Emily as asexual]] was both this and Heartwarming for [[spoiler:the [=LGBTQ=] fans, who were definitely surprised as he is one of the first canonically ace characters on a TV series]]. Especially when Emily responds that she's still ok with him.

* [=BoJack=] deciding to destroy the Sugarman summer home. It's heartbreaking, but the flashbacks and his own time there show that nothing good is in that house anymore. He refuses to allow this place to continue to be a monument to his own sadness and [[spoiler:to his mother's traumatic childhood]]. He even says that he won't wallow in self-pity any longer, finally starting to grow as a person.

* [=BoJack=] to Beatrice, or at least how he imagines he's going to say it: [[spoiler:[[PrecisionFStrike "Fuck you,]] [[CallingTheOldManOut mom!"]]]]

* Todd figures out through some InsaneTrollLogic that [=BoJack=] sabotaged his rock opera, having recognized Margo Martindale as the woman behind them at the convenience store.
* Related to this, Todd feels guilty about how [=BoJack=] is using him to spy on Mr. Peanutbutter, who has been nice to him and confided in him about wedding jitters.

* Mr. Peanutbutter heroically charging into the burning theme park and fighting through the flames to rescue Todd. The cheesy pop-ballad "Every Dog has his Dog-gone Day" being played by the park's DJ (as the park in engulfed in flames) adds to the cheesy-awesome factor. He even gets in a hero pose and a badass one-liner

** Unless you think it was [[UnintentionallyUnsympathetic obnoxious]] that she started the conversation in an aggressive and confrontational fashion that was guaranteed to provoke a fight, pressured him to talk about the New Mexico incident when he didn't want to, rubbed in his guilt over Sarah Lynn as much as possible and then [[MoralMyopia told him that]] ''[[MoralMyopia he]]'' [[MoralMyopia was "being a total asshole"]], in which case the parts of the conversation where he calls her out are the awesome parts.

* You have to admire Vincent for attempting to pull off the TotemPoleTrench in this day and age, if only for the guts to try it himself/themselves. What's really impressive is that - despite Bojack seeing right through it - ''everyone else falls for it.'' Now he has a relationship with Princess Carolyn, a talented Hollywoo agent.

* In a meta-sense, blending this and Nightmare Fuel; Secretariat's titular poem on how he felt ready to commit suicide but once he'd taken the leap, he instantly regretted it, has already been lauded by many as one of the show's strongest, most thought-provoking moments. A typical comment regarding the poem is that "One minute of ''Bojack Horseman'' was more anti-suicide than the entire [insert spesific] movie or series was."

* The show's penultimate episode, "The View From Halfway Down", had a perfect 10/10 score on IMDB for over a month after it aired (before then dropping down to 9.9, which is still very impressive).

* Kelsey returns in "A Quick One, While He's Away," and takes a stab at a directing job for a new female superhero movie. At first, she just goes along with their pitch, but feeling dishonest, she barges back in and explains why their version of the story is inaccurate to women's experiences, that [[DoubleStandard women aren't as easily celebrated for saving the day as male superheroes,]] and pitches her own, more complex version of the story, punctuating it with:

[[AC:Unsorted examples (seriously, they really need to be split up by episode)]]

** Peter successfully bringing Hollyhock down from her panic attack at their party, using [[ShownTheirWork a real strategy]] of making her focus on her senses.
* Character Actress Margo Martindale finally gets fed up with the cloistered life and roars off in a priest’s sports car.
