“Brand New Couch” is an underrated episode of BoJack Horseman that sets the stage for the series in new and unexpected ways. The season 2 premiere not only reveals more about BoJack and his insecurities, but gives us our most thorough look at his mother Beatrice in the series up to this point. Showcasing the struggles and conflict between the pair of them in multiple time periods, and unveiling the depths of the trauma that Beatrice had inflicted on her son, the episode explores BoJack’s inability to unpack those traumas as he navigates his first days on the set of Secretariat.
