Main characters

BoJack Horseman

BoJack Horseman (voiced by Will Arnett) (born 1964) is a self-loathing 52-year-old alcoholic horse at the start of the series whose acting career peaked when he starred in a successful family sitcom called Horsin' Around in the late 1980s and later The Bojack Horseman Show, an edgier, less successful sitcom which was cancelled in 2007 after just one season. Though he began as a young bright-eyed actor, he has since grown bitter, deeply depressed, and jaded towards Hollywood and whom he has become post-fame. BoJack has been shown to be caring and insightful, but his insecurities, loneliness, and desperate need for approval often result in self-destructive actions that devastate those around him. Many of his issues stem from his childhood and issues with his unhappy parents, which the audience is shown through flashbacks.

Diane Nguyen

Diane Nguyen (voiced by Alison Brie) is a human ghostwriter, a nice, well-reasoned, misunderstood intellectual, and a Vietnamese-American third-wave feminist from Boston who lives with her rich and famous boyfriend (and later husband), former sitcom star Mr. Peanutbutter. She is hired by Bojack's publisher to ghostwrite his memoir, having written a biography of Bojack's childhood hero, Secretariat. While writing BoJack's memoir, he and Diane initially develop a strong friendship that becomes increasingly awkward and strained after BoJack develops romantic feelings for her. She has struggled throughout her career to get recognition for her writing, and travels to the war-torn Republic of Cordovia to make a difference, but discovers that this life is not for her. Ashamed of returning to her husband, she develops a severe bout of depression, during which she drinks heavily and sleeps disheveled on BoJack's patio furniture. She is able to reconcile her feelings with Mr. Peanutbutter and gets a job at VIM ghostwriting tweets for celebrities. She is subsequently fired from VIM, and is hired to write for a feminist blog. During and after Mr. Peanutbutter's run for Governor of California their marriage begins to deteriorate and, at the beginning of Season 5, they divorce.

Princess Carolyn

Princess Carolyn (voiced by Amy Sedaris) is a pink Persian cat who is BoJack's agent in the first three seasons and former on-and-off girlfriend. Earnest and unflagging, Princess Carolyn was a top agent at Vigor agency through her dogged pursuit of new talent and large network of odd personal connections. Though she struggles to find a balance between work, her troubled personal life, and taking care of BoJack and her friends, she enjoys her fast-paced hectic lifestyle. She left Vigor to start a new agency with her then-boyfriend and coworker Rutabaga Rabitowitz. After recognizing his lack of trustworthiness and confronting her fear of being alone, she ultimately decides to leave him and run the new company named VIM by herself. After several setbacks, Princess Carolyn closes VIM in Season 3, only to reopen it as a management agency. She struggles throughout the series with starting a family, but frequently suffers miscarriages. In season 5, after several failed attempts, she successfully adopts a baby porcupine from Sadie, a young woman from her hometown in North Carolina.

Todd Chavez

Todd Chavez (voiced by Aaron Paul) (born 1990/91) is a friendly and lovable human slacker who ended up at BoJack's house for a party five years before the beginning of the series and never left. Although BoJack constantly voices disdain for him, he secretly cares about Todd, continuing to financially support him and sabotage his attempts to gain independence. Todd has been shown to possess a plethora of skills including an understanding of Japanese; entrepreneurial know-how, having allied with Mr. Peanutbutter for various business ideas; and writing and composing his own rock opera, Newtopia Rising, Book I: The Search for a New Utopia. His rock opera was eventually sabotaged by BoJack, who took advantage of his former addiction to video games. Todd puts the pieces together of what BoJack did string map style and begins to question his friendship with BoJack. Todd also has an uncanny knack for getting himself in absurd and extremely dangerous situations when his friends aren't around, such as getting into gun fights on several occasions, ending up in prison, and in one case switching places Prince and the Pauper-style with a Cordovian dictator. Todd's friendship with Mr. Peanutbutter landed him various jobs creating seemingly useless products. He sees the best in BoJack, despite his multitude of problems, up until "It's You" in season three, where he ultimately decides to cut BoJack out of his life. He's usually happy, even when being insulted by BoJack. Catch Phrases include shouting "hooray!". He is also almost never seen without wearing his signature yellow beanie. In the 2000s, he was an aimless skateboarder, and the object of affection of his schoolmate, Emily. It is revealed in the season 3 finale "That Went Well" that he is asexual.

Mr. Peanutbutter

Mr. Peanutbutter (voiced by Paul F. Tompkins) is an energetic and cheerful yellow Labrador Retriever who is BoJack's former sitcom rival and Diane's boyfriend (and later husband). Mr. Peanutbutter was the star of Mr. Peanutbutter's House, which, according to BoJack, "borrowed the premise" from Horsin' Around. He portrays many characteristics of an actual labrador yet portrayed as a human-like character being sweet, loyal, kind, playful, and considerate. He had a stint at filming a celebrity reality show called Peanutbutter and Jelly. Despite their rivalry, Mr. Peanutbutter cares a great deal about BoJack's opinion and admires him for his work on Horsin' Around. He has an especially good relationship with Todd, and his positive attitude and financial resources combined with Todd's outlandish schemes and plans often result in the two starting questionable business ventures, such as a Halloween store that is exclusively open in January. In the episode "Let's Find Out", Mr. Peanutbutter starts hosting his own televised game show after his film company enters bankruptcy due to his and Todd's extensive expenditures on useless products. In "Hank After Dark", it is revealed that Mr. Peanutbutter was formerly married to a woman named Katrina who was emotionally abusive. His second wife was famous actress Jessica Biel, who is portrayed as being obsessed with her celebrity status and people recognizing her. He grew up in the Labrador Peninsula, which is depicted as being populated entirely by Labrador Retrievers. "Mr." is his actual first name. He often shouts to an offscreen, but implicatively outlandish, presence only known as "Erica". He is a graduate of Northwestern University. After his divorce with Diane, he started dating a pug named Pickles who is much younger than him but shares a lot of the same characteristics. At the end of the season 5 finale, he proposes to her.

Recurring characters

Pinky Penguin

Pinky Penguin (voiced by Patton Oswalt) is an Emperor penguin and book editor who works at Penguin Publishing. He was depending on BoJack's book to save his job and the entire company. In "Yesterdayland", Pinky started working at MBN. At the end of "Later", it is revealed he was able to see his kids again. After Wanda moves to Detroit, he becomes the head of MBN. His wife has stated that everything he touches falls apart, and much of his character's humor is derived from his failures or near-failures.

Sarah Lynn

Sarah Lynn (voiced by Kristen Schaal) was a human actress who played the Horse's precocious adoptive youngest daughter Sabrina on Horsin' Around starting when she was only 3 years old, and who looked up to BoJack off-screen as a father figure. After the show went off the air, she became a successful pop singer in the early 2000s before drug addiction and alcoholism ended her career. Flashbacks indicate that Sarah Lynn's self-destructive behavior is in part the result of being forced into an acting career by her mother, and BoJack (whom she idolized) having neglected her as a child. Around the end of "Later", she was seen visiting Andrew Garfield (with whom she was mentioned as having an on-again, off-again relationship) at the hospital. It is heavily implied that she was sexually abused as a child by her mother's boyfriend and later stepfather. Although BoJack attempts to get her sober earlier in Season 1, he later goes on a bender with her and Todd in an attempt to rewrite his memoir after firing Diane.

In Season 3, she becomes sober, but only because she hears that taking drugs after being sober for a long time is the best experience. When BoJack hits rock bottom, he invites Sarah Lynn to go on an epic bender. Through a series of blackouts, they have a series of misadventures attempting to make amends to BoJack's ex-friends, and even stalking Penny at Oberlin College. Along the way, Sarah Lynn wins the Academy Award for Best Original Song in absentia. She then admits to BoJack that she doesn't like anything about herself and, at the Griffith Observatory planetarium, dies lying on BoJack's shoulder after a drug overdose. In "That Went Well," it is revealed that BoJack was at one point her only friend who hadn't tried to get something from her, and her downward spiral began after he visited her and tried to get her to be a guest star on his TV show.

Sarah Lynn appeared in the Season 1 episodes "BoJack Horseman: The BoJack Horseman Story, Chapter One," "Prickly-Muffin," and "Downer Ending," the Season 2 episode "Still Broken," the Season 3 episodes "Old Acquaintance," "That's Too Much, Man," and "That Went Well," and the season four episode "What Time Is It Right Now". Schaal was nominated for the Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Character Voice-Over Performance for her role in Season 3.

Herb Kazzaz

Herb Kazzaz (voiced by Stanley Tucci) was BoJack's human former comedy partner, who created and wrote Horsin' Around where he also provided the voice of Mr. Libertore who runs the law firm where the Horse works as an attorney. Herb appeared to be friendly and upbeat during the shows production, usually nice, understanding, and insightful to all his cast, even Bradley. When BoJack and Herb first meet as comedians, BoJack angrily tells him to "get cancer" which is what eventually happens. The pair had a falling out at the apex of the show's success when Herb was blackballed by the network for being gay and BoJack did not stand up for Herb for fear of losing his own job. At the beginning of the series, they have not spoken for nearly 18 years. BoJack attempts to reconnect with him after learning Herb has been diagnosed with terminal rectal cancer and is being watched over by Tina. Though Herb reveals he lived a full life in spite of losing Horsin' Around, he has not forgiven BoJack for not having been a supportive friend. Despite his cancer going into remission, he instantly passes away due to an allergic reaction to the peanuts on a peanut truck in a car crash when his brakes gave out during a ride home from the hospital. It was also revealed that Herb's office was under the room where Savion Glover kept a studio. Following his death, Henry Winkler and Tina stole the manuscript of his poorly written novel to keep it from being published and tainting his legacy. In "Out to Sea", Herb's ashes are donated to the Jerb Kazzaz Memorial Orphanage (misspelled due to BoJack's email and the hedgehog owner's stubbornness to pay for its replacement).

Tina

Tina is a brown bear who is the nurse of Herb Kazzaz. In "Still Broken", Tina was in collaboration with Henry Winkler to keep Herb's terrible manuscript for a novel from being posthumously published and harming his legacy. Unlike the other anthropomorphic characters on the show, Tina only speaks in growls. Later (Season 4), Tina returns as the nurse of BoJack's Mother, Beatrice.

Charlotte Moore

Charlotte Moore (voiced by Olivia Wilde) is a deer who was Herb Kazzaz's old girlfriend with whom BoJack was once in love. During a drug and alcohol induced stupor in "Downer Ending", BoJack imagines an alternate life where instead of becoming a television star he moves to Maine with Charlotte. In this fantasy, the couple get married, have a daughter named Harper, and lead a quiet rustic lifestyle.

In "Still Broken", Charlotte attended Herb Kazzaz's funeral. In a discussion with BoJack, she mentioned that she visited Herb and read the part in BoJack's book on how he and Herb fought over a telescope. She tells him she only lived in Maine for a month and later moved to Tesuque, New Mexico. In "Escape from LA", BoJack drives to Charlotte's house to find she is married to Kyle and has two teenage children named Trip and Penny. She also owns a store called "Your Deer Friend". During his time in New Mexico, BoJack bonds with the 17-year-old Penny by becoming her "date" for prom. While talking with Charlotte later over by her fire pit, the two share a brief kiss. BoJack initially urges her to leave with him anew amidst her protests, eventually relenting. However, Charlotte asks him to leave by the next day, confessing his presence depresses her. Later that night, Charlotte follows a floating neon lantern, and catches BoJack and Penny in a compromising position in his yacht. BoJack apologizes, but she orders him to get off her property in half an hour before she calls the police, and warns BoJack that if he contacts her or her family again, she will kill him.

Beatrice Horseman

Beatrice Elizabeth Horseman (née Sugarman) (voiced by Wendie Malick) was a horse who was BoJack's neglectful, verbally abusive mother. Heiress to a sugar cube company, she primarily appears in flashbacks to BoJack's childhood. In "Brand New Couch", Beatrice calls up BoJack to tell him she read the book about him and concedes that he was born "broken". In "The Old Sugarman Place", it is revealed that Beatrice's family had a summer home in Michigan when she was a child, and that she had an older brother named Crackerjack, who died in World War II. Her childhood was marked by cruel treatment from family and peers alike, hardening and embittering her personality. After becoming impregnated by Butterscotch, Beatrice decides to marry him and move to California, where she becomes resentful of BoJack, blaming him for her dissatisfaction in her life. She begins to suffer from dementia and after an incident at her nursing home, she moves in with BoJack and Hollyhock. However, after BoJack realizes Beatrice has been drugging Hollyhock (to make her lose weight), BoJack puts her into an even worse nursing home and makes clear he no longer wants her in his life. In the episode "Free Churro", it is revealed that Beatrice has died, as BoJack is delivering a eulogy at her funeral.

Butterscotch Horseman

Butterscotch Horseman (voiced by Will Arnett) was a horse who was BoJack's physically and verbally abusive father. He appears in flashbacks to BoJack's childhood. Butterscotch, who hailed from a working-class background, was an alcoholic failed novelist. He resented his wife's financial independence and took out his insecurities on BoJack. In flashbacks, Butterscotch is often seen yelling nonsensical conservative hyperbole such as claiming that the Panama Canal is for "Democrats". He is confirmed to be dead, as a flashback shows BoJack and Beatrice going to Butterscotch's funeral. In "Time's Arrow", it is revealed that Butterscotch is Hollyhock's father, due to his affair with a maid named Henrietta. In "Free Churro", it is revealed that Butterscotch died after challenging a man who hated his book to a duel and then tripping and hitting his head on a rock.

Lenny Turteltaub

Lenny Turteltaub (voiced by J.K. Simmons) is a turtle and big-shot film producer. He worked with Ed Begley, Sr., Lionel Barrymore, Buster Keaton and Edwin S. Porter during their youth, suggesting that he is extremely old (a reference to the lifespan of actual turtles). He is shown to dislike Bojack but continuously casts him in projects.

Paparazzi Birds

The Paparazzi Birds (voiced by Adam Conover and Dave Segal) are an unnamed blue jay and American robin duo who would try to get incriminating pictures of BoJack. They attempt to blackmail Bojack after taking photos of him having intercourse with Sarah Lynn but are stopped by Vanessa Gekko.

Sextina Aquafina

Sextina Aquafina (voiced by Aisha Tyler in season 1-2, Daniele Gaither in season 3) is a bottlenose dolphin pop-music sensation. In "Out to Sea", Diane meets with Sextina to discuss becoming her social-media ghostwriter. In the season three episode "Brrap Brrap Pew Pew", Diane accidentally tweeted out that Sextina was having an abortion while she was being distracted, which caused a media storm. While Sextina was initially angered with the tweet and tried to fire Diane, she later embraced the image because of support from other celebrities. She later released a music video militantly supporting abortion, had her "abortion" on live TV, and soon after became pregnant. It is implied that she is sent to a farm where celebrities go to disappear.

According to creator Raphael Bob-Waksberg, she is based on a girl who was in his and Lisa Hanawalt's English class as a senior in high school.[2]

Kelsey Jannings

Kelsey Jannings (voiced by Maria Bamford) is a human who was hired to direct the Secretariat movie. A divorced, lesbian, independent filmmaker, she sees the Secretariat project as her last chance to break into the big time and make enough money to get her daughter Irving into an Ivy League school (as opposed to Vassar). Cynical and initially dismissive of BoJack's attitude, she and BoJack grow closer over the course of filming. She has a special fondness for Todd because she likes his face. She is later fired by Lenny Turteltaub in "The Shot" for filming a scene that involved Secretariat's encounter with Richard Nixon.

In season three, BoJack finds Kelsey at POFF (Pacific Ocean Film Festival) and attempts to reconcile with her through a note, but she cannot understand it because the ink starts to wash away. Later in the season, the two discuss doing a serious film together to legitimize BoJack as an actor. Unfortunately, this is part of a plan by Vanessa Gekko to sabotage Princess Carolyn. The resulting fallout seemingly ends BoJack's unique professional and artistic connection with Kelsey.

A Ryan Seacrest Type

A Ryan Seacrest Type (voiced by Adam Conover) is the name of a human character who hosts "Excess Hollywood" (later renamed "Excess Hollywoo" after BoJack steals the D in the Hollywood Sign and the D is accidentally destroyed in a helicopter crash) and interviews celebrities. He also hosts "Morning Time, Hollywoo" with a female human called Some Lady. In the third season, he is run over by BoJack driving a limo. He is later revealed to have somehow survived and hosts a late night talk show as well as co-hosting Excess Hollywoo with "A Billy Bush Type" (voiced by Kevin Bigley). He briefly co-anchors the ski race between Mr. Peanutbutter and Woodchuck Coodchuck-Berkowitz with Tom Jumbo-Grumbo, but quits after being sensitive to the cold weather.

Tom Jumbo-Grumbo

Tom Jumbo-Grumbo (voiced by Keith Olbermann) is a blue whale who is a newsman and pundit on MSNBSea (a parody of MSNBC). Tom often reports on BoJack's misdeeds and other happenings in Hollywoo, often through alliteration. Whenever something goes wrong on the air, he blames it all on an offscreen presence only known as "Randy", and makes various jokes at the expense of his ex-wife Shannon, though he usually immediately apologizes afterwards.

Wayne

Wayne (voiced by Wyatt Cenac) is Diane's human ex-boyfriend who is a hipster and a BuzzFeed writer. He conspires with Diane to leak a small portion of BoJack's book to create hype and convince BoJack to allow its publication.

Vanessa Gekko

Vanessa Gekko (voiced by Kristin Chenoweth) – A human Hollywoo talent agent and the rival of Princess Carolyn. She is a seemingly better agent than Princess Carolyn because she has a husband and kids, thereby "having it all." She temporarily shares an office with Princess Carolyn when their agencies merge. Sometime between seasons 2 and 3, she and Rutabaga started their own agency, Gekko-Rabbitowitz, which ultimately sabotages VIM, leading to the latter agency's collapse.

Charley Witherspoon

Charley Witherspoon (voiced by Raphael Bob-Waksberg) is a tree frog who is the son of Mr. Witherspoon. He works at the Vigor agency where his hand keeps sticking to things. Charley was briefly Princess Carolyn's assistant, but was later made an agent.

After his father's death, he is sworn in as the new President of Vigor. He is shown to be a poor leader, choosing to hire the Utah Jazz as agents rather than basketball players.

Officer Meow Meow Fuzzyface

Officer Meow Meow Fuzzyface (voiced by Cedric Yarbrough) is a cat who works as a police officer at the Los Angeles Police Department's 12th Precinct. He takes his duties very seriously, although there is intense disagreement within the police force over whether he is a "reckless renegade", a "loose cannon", or just a "cop on the edge with nothing to lose."

Vincent Adultman

Vincent Adultman (voiced by Alison Brie[3]) is Princess Carolyn's boyfriend. Everyone except BoJack appears oblivious (or just do not care) to the fact that he appears to be three children standing atop each other underneath a trench coat. Though he speaks in a child's voice and has awkward syntax, he also occasionally exhibits strangely keen insight, prompting others to ignore BoJack's observations. In Season 2, Princess Carolyn meets Kevin, who appears to be the top child of Vincent's trio. He tells Princess Carolyn that Kevin is Vincent's son, which she believes, but leads to them breaking up.

Dr. Allen Hu

Dr. Allen Hu (voiced by Ken Jeong) is a human physician who sells drugs to Sarah Lynn. An unseen character throughout most of the first season, he is the subject of a recurring joke based on the phonetic similarity of his name to "who" with BoJack and others believing that Sarah's drug connection is a man who simply calls himself "Doctor Who" rather than an actual physician. He made his first onscreen appearance in "Downer Ending."

Sebastian St. Clair

Sebastian St. Clair (voiced by Keegan-Michael Key) - A snow leopard billionaire bachelor who wants Diane to accompany him to a third world country, Cordovia, to ghostwrite a novel about him. Though Diane initially looks up to him because she wants to change the world in a positive way, she quickly becomes disillusioned when it becomes clear he is more concerned with making a legacy for himself than with actually helping people.

Jogging Baboon

The Jogging Baboon (voiced by Jason Beghe) is an unnamed white baboon that is often seen jogging by BoJack Horseman's house. In "Out to Sea", the Jogging Baboon comes across BoJack jogging. He tells BoJack that jogging may be hard at first, but it will get easier if he does it every day.

Corduroy Jackson-Jackson

Corduroy Jackson-Jackson (voiced by Brandon T. Jackson) is BoJack's human co-star in the Secretariat movie. He dies from auto-erotic asphyxiation. The movie is later dedicated in memory of him.

Wanda Pierce

Wanda Pierce (voiced by Lisa Kudrow) is an owl who is BoJack's girlfriend in Season 2. She meets Bojack after reviving from a 30 year coma. Bojack dates her because she has no idea who he is amidst his post-novel fame. She is a television executive and produces “Hollywoo Stars and Celebrities: What Do They Know? Do They Know Things? Let’s Find Out.” She was promoted immediately on coming out of the coma as "no one else had worked there that long." She eventually changes networks and is replaced by Pinky Penguin as executive.

Emily

Emily (voiced by Abbi Jacobson) - A human love interest of Todd whom he's known since high school. She is shown to have romantic feelings for Todd, and chooses to sleep with Bojack following Todd's initial "rejection" before she learns he is asexual.

Rutabaga Rabbitowitz

Rutabaga Rabbitowitz (voiced by Ben Schwartz) is a rabbit agent at the Vigor agency who works one floor below Princess Carolyn. He later informed her of J.D. Salinger still being alive. Rutabaga cheats on his wife Katie with Princess Carolyn, claiming he plans to obtain a divorce. He later persuades Princess Carolyn to join him in founding their own agency upon seceding from Vigor. After revealing his reluctance to divorce yet wishing to continue the affair, Princess Carolyn abandons him.

He later makes his own agency with Vanessa Gekko called Gekko Rabbitowitz. Later on, Rutabaga has rekindled his marriage to Katie who gives birth to septuplets on New Year's Eve.

Hank Hippopopalous

Hank Hippopopalous (voiced by Philip Baker Hall) - A hippopotamus who is a beloved former host of a late-night talk show called Hank After Dark. At the 1994 Animals' Choice Awards, he won the award for Male Animal in a Comedy, Drama or Variety Show, for which BoJack Horseman and Mr. Peanutbutter were also nominated and was given the award by Scott Wolf and Matthew Fox. Mr. Peanutbutter idolizes him and treasures having met him at the awards after-party. He is the host of a TV dance competition Hey, I Think You Can Dance. Hippopopalous is known in the TV industry as Uncle Hankie.

In the episode "Hank After Dark," Diane inadvertently causes a controversy by including the beloved entertainer in a mention of celebrities who have done worse things than BoJack. The controversy involved unspecified allegations made against him by all eight of his female former assistants.

Roxy

Roxy (voiced by Fielding Edlow) is Diane's human friend. She was initially introduced as her and Mr. Peanutbutter's wedding officiant in "Horse Majure". She worked alongside Diane and Wayne as both a barista and a cater waiter. She is baffled by Diane's relationship and possible obsession with BoJack since she came to him after abandoning Cordovia, and not to her or any of her other friends.

Judah

Judah Mannowdog (voiced by Diedrich Bader) is a human part-owner for Princess Carolyn's agency VIM. He is depicted as comically deadpan and doesn't seem to really understand humor or sarcasm, possibly suggesting that he is on the autism spectrum. Though he remains unflinchingly loyal to Princess Carolyn even after VIM collapses, he is fired by Princess Carolyn after she finds out about him going behind her back and talking with Charley Witherspoon about a potential merger with Vigor, which he turned down and never brought up to her. He is known for his heavy facial hair and long hair, which is frequently made fun of by guests at Vim. His name is a play on “You The Man Now Dog”, the name of an online community centered on the creation of hosted memetic web pages, with the name taken from a Sean Connery line in the film Finding Forrester.

(It is later revealed that she is actually the illegitimate daughter of Butterscotch Horseman, BoJack's father, and Beatrice's maid, Henrietta, making her BoJack's half-sister.) Beatrice, who snipes at Hollyhock for being overweight, spikes her coffee with weight-loss supplements (containing amphetamines). She overdoses and is rushed to the hospital and survives, although she suffers from PTSD like symptoms when she returns to BoJack’s house. In Season 5, she is a freshman at Wesleyan University.

In season 4, he attempts to start a family with Princess Carolyn and attempts to find ways to impregnate her.

Woodcharles "Woodchuck" Coodchuck-Berkowitz (voiced by Andre Braugher) is the woodchuck incumbent and level-headed governor of California. He is a graduate of Dartmouth College. He is bewildered by Mr. Peanutbutter's campaign. In some season four episodes, he replaces Tom Jumbo-Grumbo's image on the television during the party sequence in the theme song. Following the collapse of Mr. Peanutbutter's house, he digs down to save everyone inside which results in the loss of his hands. He briefly has his hands replaced with claws, but later regains the hands. He is forced to re-run for governor following Todd's victory in the skiing race in which he is the only experienced politician. He eventually beats Jessica Biel following the revelation that she hates avocados.

Joseph Sugarman

Joseph Sugarman (voiced by Matthew Broderick) was Beatrice's father and BoJack's maternal grandfather, the owner of the Sugarman Sugar corporation. Emotionally distant, he frequently spouted his backward views about women, making Beatrice feel insecure and inadequate (for which she compensates with meanness as an adult).

Honey Sugarman

Honey Sugarman (voiced by Jane Krakowski) was Beatrice's mother and BoJack's maternal grandmother. She was a housewife and exceptional singer, but suffered from post-traumatic stress disorder after her son, Crackerjack Sugarman (voiced by Lin-Manuel Miranda) died in World War II.

In Season 1, she is arrested helping BoJack fake a bank robbery in order to steal Diane's engagement ring, and is incarcerated in Hollywoo Hills Super-Max Prison. In "Later," Margo was seen in the prison's cafeteria talking to her fellow inmates that resemble the characters from Orange is the New Black. In Season 2's "The Shot," the audience sees Margo get released early from prison due to good behavior. Later in the same episode, Margo gets involved in a shootout with the Yorba Linda police in order to distract them from BoJack's unauthorized use of the Richard Nixon Presidential Library for his movie Secretariat. When the police recognize her face but do not recall her name, she opens fire on them in the name of often-unrecognized fellow character actors like John Carroll Lynch and C.C.H. Pounder. In Season 3, it is revealed in flashbacks that she was BoJack's co-star on The BoJack Horseman Show. In "Stop The Presses", it is revealed that she's been hiding out on BoJack's boat since the previous season's shootout in Yorba Linda, during which time she starred in a regional production of a Tennessee Williams play while also doing a character arc as Ruth Eastman on The Good Wife. She eventually steals BoJack's boat and a paper maché version of Todd's head and flees into international waters. During the season 3 finale, "That Went Well", she's shown to have become delusional after weeks alone in the open sea, believing that the paper maché Todd-head is called "Skippy" and that it speaks to her. In her delusions, she causes an accident with the Cargot Cartinadale, a cargo ship carrying tons of pasta, resulting in an environmental disaster which Mr. Peanutbutter ends up resolving. In an MSNBSea newscrawl in season 4, it is revealed that she is still lost at sea and presumed dead.
