Ep 10. Yes And

BoJack Horseman season 2 episode 10, titled "Yes And," picks up with BoJack attending a comedy improv class in an attempt to further his career. After an unsatisfying audition, he realizes he needs to work on his improvisation skills and enrolls in a class taught by the charismatic Wanda Pierce.

Throughout the episode, BoJack is faced with the challenge of learning how to "yes and" - a fundamental rule of improvisation that requires performers to accept what their partner offers and build upon it. Despite his initial reluctance and resistance to the exercises, BoJack begins to open up and engage with his classmates.

Meanwhile, Princess Carolyn struggles to navigate her new position as an agent, and her relationship with Rutabaga Rabitowitz becomes increasingly complicated. Todd, on the other hand, finds himself in a new "improvisational" role as a personal assistant to an eccentric billionaire.

The episode is filled with hilarious moments and witty one-liners, but it also explores deeper issues such as the fear of failure, the importance of vulnerability and connection, and the power dynamics within relationships.

As the class progresses, BoJack's improv skills improve, and he begins to feel more confident in his abilities. However, his personal life takes a dramatic turn when he receives a call from Herb Kazzaz, his former best friend and writing partner. Herb reveals that he has been diagnosed with terminal cancer and wants to make amends with BoJack before he dies.

The episode ends with BoJack grappling with the weight of his past mistakes and the possibility of redemption. "Yes And" is a poignant and thought-provoking episode that showcases the show's ability to balance humor and heartbreak with grace.
