Though she was a late addition to BoJack Horseman, Hollyhock was more real than any character in Hollywoo
turns 10 this week, we’ll be looking back at the engrossing animated comedy with a series of essays and interviews. This iswas the sheer depth of its supporting character bench. Few other shows could keep up with how fast it introduced new characters in the background and the foreground, how good the illustrators were at making every character recognizable, and how sharp the casting directors were when they paired actors to the ones who had lines.
In this grand display of cameos and background gags, one face was noticeably absent: BoJack’s supposed daughter turned half-sister Hollyhock Manheim-Mannheim-Guerrero-Robinson-Zilberschlag-Hsung-Fonzerelli-McQuack. It was a heartbreaking omission, but one that was true to the bittersweet endhad written for itself, and one that emphasized how important Hollyhock had become to the emotional narrative of the series.
Good-natured and a bit ditzy, with a penchant for snacking and laziness that betrayed her Horseman lineage, there was something refreshingly real about her in a world of characters drowned in Hollywoo double talk and emotional baggage. She could be startled by what was happening around her, but was also clear-eyed enough about what she’s gotten into, avoiding the way other characters of this type would be treated as naive obstacles. Case in point, her first meeting with her father.
