Overview
Streaming service turned production house Netflix has announced its next big TV show project — and this time, it's animated. Voiced by Will Arnett of Arrested Development fame, BoJack Horseman is the lead in a new 12-part series of the same name. A former star of Horsin' Around — a '90s sitcom within the program — BoJack is galloping toward failure, dealing with alcoholism and is, er, a horse.
Alongside Arnett is Strangers with Candy’s Amy Sedaris, playing Princess Caroline, BoJack’s ex-lover and agent who's also a cat, while none other than Breaking Bad's Aaron Paul plays his human buddy, Todd.
And there's every chance Aaron will get to say 'bitch' just as much this time around, because BoJack Horseman is an adult animated series that's said to be darkly humorous. Netflix is surely hoping Bojack will continue their hit parade, following on from 2013's Arrested Development Season 4, House of Cards and Orange Is the New Black.
LA-based studio Shadow Machine (Robot Chicken, Moral Orel) is behind the animation for the program that's set premiere in mid-2014. The design will come from acclaimed graphic artist Lisa Hanawalt.
Discussion is already underway for a second season, which leaves us thinking this stallion of a program is pretty sure to be a runaway hit.
