BoJack F. Horseman (born January 2, 1964[1]) is a fictional character and the titular protagonist of the Netflix animated comedy eponymous American animated television series. He is voiced by Will Arnett and was created by Raphael Bob-Waksberg.[2] Prior to the time the series takes place in, BoJack had starred in a fictional hit 1990s sitcom called Horsin' Around. After the show ended, BoJack struggled to find acting work, instead living off residuals from Horsin' Around's syndication.

BoJack, a self-loathing and alcoholic anthropomorphic narcissistic horse, suffers from depression[3] and often engages in self-destructive behavior. He frequently drinks, takes drugs to the excess, and has difficulty maintaining positive relationships with others.[4]
