SOS Bros React - Bojack Horseman Season 6 Episode 16 - Nice While It Lasted 

I love how it’s just the 5 main characters that talk this episode.

A fun fan theory is that Erica is a squirrel which explains why Mr. Peanutbutter always gets distracted

I had a pretty good idea the series wouldn't end with Bojack's death. For one thing, there's something called the Werther Effect where showing something like that in media can lead to copycats. A lot of struggling people identified with Bojack, and it would be pretty irresponsible of the writers to put a message that can be misinterpreted to mean, "Things will only get better if you're gone." Besides this, I feel like the whole series has had a running theme that Diane summed up in the end as "life's a bitch and then you keep on living." There's always more show. Nothing ever ends. Terrible things happen, but then life goes on. This was a theme going back to season 1. I think this is the only way this show could have ended. Bojack has made mistakes that he can't undo. He has lost people he can't get back. But even so, his life goes on. There are signs that he might do better, and signs that it won't be easy. Having a definitive happy or sad ending would go against the central message of the show.

Apparently, there are 3 endings to BoJack Season 6. 6x7: optimistic where he ends up as a professor 6x15: pessimistic where he dies 6x16: realistic where life goes on

I can't believe the journey is over 😭😭😭

The greatest compliment that I can give the Bojack & Diane conversation is it doesn’t sound scripted from a show at all it is such a natural conversation it’s like eves dropping on a personal conversation

I love this ending because it keeps the theme of what Diane says in season 1 where there’s always the day after the happy ending. “There is always more show until there isn’t” Masterclass finale completely on theme

"Mr. Blue, I told you that I love you. Please, believe me..." 😢

One of the best shows you'll ever watch. And it is actually better on rewatch imo. You get to appreciate the writing more, you spot more background gags, and the emotional stuff all still hits.

You guys have been the best Bojack reactors I’ve seen so far. Cheers 🥂

Mid-season finale: Don't hear from the main characters Series finale: Don't hear from anyone else

Legend says that Paige Sinclair is still 2 days away from getting married and leaving the journalism business for ever

i love the song at the end which represents everything Diane wants to say to Bojack but can't

He’s finally doing Ibsen

I really hope you guys pick another show that allow you to have these emotion-driven conversations, because I really dig your opinions. Have been surprisingly wholesome.

Both BoJack and Breaking Bad ended on absolutely perfect songs. And one last shout out to Jesse Novak, BoJack's composer. That little piano riff when BoJack started his funny story hit my feels.

we’re finally here. it’s been a great ride, and this has been one of the greatest reactions i’ve ever seen of bojack ever. i appreciated the in-depth discussions so much and your outright investment of the show. BH is in my top 5 shows of all time (dare i say maybe 3, even) and will always have a special place in my heart.

Is important to know that every season could have been the last from the production standpoint. That's why the downer episode is the 11th, because they always wanted to make the 12th the little epilogue after the catastrophe; one small shine of hope at the end of the tunnel. "Life is a bitch and you keep living" was in fact the moto of the show all the time.

it’s finally over… damn, now to wait 10 more years for someone else on RU-vid to watch this

It's been a long journey. BoJack has alienated most of his friends, but there is hope for the future.

Little background events: Wanda is president on Gronkle now & Gina was cast as Fireflame.

Well, it was nice while it lasted. Thanks for an amazing ride, gents. Fantastic insights, great in-show reactions, and great discussions afterward. I really enjoyed your reactions. I need to watch Avatar now, not just for the show but also so I can come enjoy your reactions to it afterward. Appreciate you guys! PS: Gina ended up getting Fireflame! The billboard was behind PB in the diner window. PPS: You should watch the Horsin' Around Christmas episode! For some reason Netflix made it a separate "show" so you need to search for it. It came out between seasons 1 and 2, so it's still early in the show's development (and story), but it's a fun little episode.

Genuinely one of my series out there, the pinultimate episode is one of my favorite episodes of all television and it was such an amazing journey watching this with you guys

fun fact, the OG 5 are the only people that said a single line in this whole episode

Oh, man. It's gonna be tough to replace this. I thoroughly enjoyed watching you two react to this and the discussions. ❤

Great reaction to the whole series, was fun rewatching with yall. High praise saying its one of the 3 western cartoons you consider having life-altering messages, makes me want to watch Arcane since you included it with Bojack and Avatar.

I don't think Peanutbutter has become Bojack in any way, I think he just didn't get as much character focus and development in the last few seasons outside of his romantic relationships, and it would feel like a cop out to claim he changed radically off screen. He also never had the boundary problem to address with Bojack because it never existed between them, and I'd argue that's why he can have Bojack come live with him, PB isn't dependable enough for Bojack to become codpendent on. And that's probably for the best!

IM SO GLAD I WAS WITH THIS SINCE DAY ONE ‼️ Love your commentary so much on these, i hope the next series is just as good

I literally can’t believe it’s over. I remember when your first Bojack reaction came out

I’m gonna miss you bros watching this show. But hey, it was nice while it lasted.

Funny how a show about anthropomorphic animals is oh so human.

I haven't always commented here but I've watched every Bojack reaction of yours. Glad to have experienced this journey with you guys. Thank you!

Thanks for the amazing reaction over this show, it was a blast to watch them every week !

ever since this episode came out ive had dianes quote on my lock screen. I just love it so much. The finest final 2 episodes to a show ever.

Those Bojack retrospectives are great videos, especially the recaps from Schafferllis (definitely misspelled) 🤣

What a fun journey this was with you guys! Glad to re experience it along side you.

Thank you so much for the past 76 weeks of sometimes hilarious and other times reflective reactions and discussions for this wonderful show. I did not watch this show beforehand, but I knew of it so was eager to get into it since it was well-received. It was fun watching this weekly since it had a very episodic nature but also allowed me to breathe after some of the episodes such as last week. When I first started watching this show I personally thought it was going to be more of a fun sit-com animated show with some witty dialogue. Well, it did have that but also explored a lot more than I expected not only with its mature themes but also the way they experimented with some of the episode structures and animation styles. Whilst I have only just finished recently so I will have to think about it I do think this might be one of my favorite shows right there alongside Monogatri, Better Call Saul, Mr. Robot and The Good Place. I am interested to see what you are going to be starting next week, whether it is a returning show or a brand-new show I will be there as always.👍

1:02:14 SCHRAFFRILLAS MENTIONED ‼️‼️🔥🔥🔥🙏🙏🙏🙏

Been a hell of a journey, nice while it lasted

If there's any critics of this ending, I haven't heard them. To my knowledge it's pretty universally beloved.

Dunno if anyone told you yet, but in the previous episode, if you let the entire credits roll instead of skipping, you hear the sound of the flatline turn into heart beats.

It’s the end of an era. Your guys’ guesses about where the show would go and your hopes for the next episode were just absolutely incredible in how either on point they were, or how much the episode to follow was going absolutely wreck you in the best way. I’d love to hear more - if you choose to make retrospectives - about the representation of the ego death via this series.

For me, personally: Best tv-show of the last decade. The writing is just nearly immaculate. 100/10, no notes. Got both great comedy, and crushingly great existential drama. There aren't many shows out there that can tap into the anxiety and turmoil of growing as a person (esp. during early adult years).

I love they opened with exactly the same fake-out death from the show they used in the pilot.

Thanks for this journey, guys. I was here since s1e1

Glad you guys got to watch the final episode of the show

That was nice while it last 🐴

I first watched this show as a early teenager *(Im still teenage but still)* With you guys reacting from start and seeing the show again with my current mindset elevated this show SO much for me. Even though I didnt get most of the industry jokes *(foreigner)* I really enjoyed it. What a show...

Truly a perfect finale

Bojack is such an amazing show. Thanks for the reactions!

Welp. Here we are. This has been my favorite reaction to this series. Been a pleasure boys 🫡

Season 1: Downer Ending then After Season 6: The View from Halfway Down then Nice While it Lasted Loved that they kept the theme throughout the series; life’s a bitch then you keep living

perfect song choice at the end, it reduces me to tears every time

Great reaction! Its such a good finale, what a show!

I was definitely one of those people who felt that it was a cop out to have Bojack survive. I wanted the dark edgy ending. But that was never what the show was about. It was always about dealing with the shitty things in your life. Of course they weren't gonna end it with saying the only way out is through killing yourself. That's be a terrible message to leave for the people who related to Bojack and who were going through similar things. It took a while for that to really sink in for me.

Totally forgot that PB wasn't the one who found him in the pool. Got it confused with another episode.

well it was nice while it lasted guys :)

Can't believe this journey is over. Edit: Someone already said this. Whoops!

2 of my favourite series ended with a song about something blue, ironic

It was nice while it lasted guys.

Nice while it lasted

There is a theory that this episode is still in the dream and in the flat line in the very end is where Bojack really dies

One of my favorite shows. Glad you guys enjoyed it!

51:30 options, love the comparison between this one and last ep

I don't smoke, but if I did, I would need one after seeing this finale.

Thank you, guys! Finally someone did reaction that this amazing series deserves. It was pretty much perfect especially analysis at the end of each episode. p.s. life (or youtube algorithm) is weird, if autoplay didn't play some random Attack on Titan compilation video and if Jacob didn't mention that he is a manga reader I would never found your channel. Both Attack on Titan and Bojack are 10/10 reactions.

This was quite the journey, thank you so much for your insights and perspectives. Check out another show from the creator: Undone.

this has been such a great journey

Wowzers

Thanks for this wonderful journey❤

My favorite show ever and its not even close. I doubt I see something that overtakes it in my lifetime tbh.

Gunna do the bojack Xmas special standalone?

It would have been really interesting and funny if the final episode had been Free Churro 2

I will miss these reactions man

favorite ep

This is supposed to be my last RU-vid video. It was nice while it lasted 👋

Love Schaffrillas Productions and I love different readings of different characters but personally as someone who loves Princess Carolyn... if you haven't watched it yet maybe be prepared for his take, he doesn't like her that much. I really tried to get engaged with the videos but I kinda stopped after his 3rd season recap. I just don't like that he let Mr Peanut Butter slide by without mentioning the bad things he does in the early seasons too but really goes hard on what pc does wrong. For me a review has to either be: It's either all or nothing, you either acknowledge the bad in all characters or you leave it at a general level of yeah they did bad stuff, you can't just go hard on one character and not the other.

I'd love to have y'all react to more Western animations. Bojack is one of the most important ones, specially as far as adult ones go but still.

awesome

😭😭😭

Anybody know what show they're doing next? Fingers crossed Venture Bros...

While the series did drag the ending is satisfying but not hard to rewatch sometimes

4 great seasons and 2 weird rushed seasons that tried to retcon the other 4 seasons

Yeah this show really went downhill in season 3
