It was so nice to have an episode without an "a Todd adventure is explained or imagined" monologue. I like Todd as an emotional core of the show. I don't like his goofy bit parts.

Also, finally, some conflict upon which to build future episodes! It looks like the show might dig in on "what dickbag friends and/or celebrities can do to show they're reformed," which I'm interested to see.

The best bit for me was Diane's speech to Ana about covering for awful men, in which every part could apply to her friendship with BoJack, without immediate explicit recognition of that fact.

I still love Todd stories, though.

One of the presenters on the Squawk was a Whiskered Treeswift! That might be the best bird I’ve spotted on the show.

Dang, they finally paid off Bojack's confession in Start Spreading the News! I really appreciate a show that's willing to wait two entire seasons to finish a brick joke.
