BoJack Horseman: The BoJack Horseman Story, Chapter One, is the first episode of the animated TV series BoJack Horseman. The episode introduces the show's titular character, BoJack Horseman, a Hollywood has-been who is trying to make a comeback.

The episode starts with an introduction to BoJack's character and his past as the star of a popular 90s sitcom called Horsin' Around. However, in the present day, he's struggling with his career, living in a large and luxurious home in the Hollywood hills, and spending his time drinking and partying with his human friend and roommate Todd Chavez.

Despite his fame and fortune, BoJack is unfulfilled and seems to be searching for something more meaningful. He, therefore, agrees to an interview with a stringent and no-nonsense journalist, Diane Nguyen. The interview is a chance for BoJack to tell his story as he sees it, and he hopes it will help him reconnect with the public and relaunch his career.

As the story unfolds, we learn more about BoJack's character and his past, including his relationship with his former co-star, the child star Sarah Lynn.

Throughout the episode, we see how BoJack's sense of self-worth is tied up in his fame and fortune, and he's not sure how to find happiness outside of the Hollywood fame machine. By the end of the episode, he's made some awkward attempts at connecting with Diane and Todd, showing that he may be willing to change and grow as a character.
