Rezensionen / Stimmen

"BoJack Horseman," a cartoon about an anthropomorphic horse, is one of the funniest shows on TV. The sumptuous and comprehensive "BoJack Horseman: The Art Before the Horse," about the show's character design and aesthetics, is fascinating." -- New York Times "A behind-the-scenes companion that comes straight, as it were, from the horse's mouth. The text is an oral history of the Netflix show, backed by a full stable of concept art. Highlights include showrunner Raphael Bob-Waks berg's intro and Aaron Paul enjoying an episode on the set of Exodus: "I had to hold my fake beard in place because of my laughter." -- Total Film "Bojack Horseman: The Art Before the Horse, offers an intimate and wonderfully quirky look at how real life stories and meticulous production came together to inspire the popular Netflix show centered around a horse(man) suffering the slings and arrows of show business.

Every scene is brimming with visual gags, ridiculous animal puns and Hollywood-skewering easter eggs, to the point where it's impossible to catch them all in a single viewing - which is why a new book, BoJack Horseman: The Art Before the Horse, should appeal to fans of all stripes (and spots)." -- IGN "Bojack Horseman: The Art Before the Horse is essential reading for anyone that likes to hang out at Chateau Marmoset with Bojack and crew. It's a beautifully finished, weird book for a weird show, which also happens to be one of the best TV series companion pieces ever published." -- Starburst "In one section of the excellent new book BoJack Horseman: The Art Before The Horse, the show's writers discuss the idea of BoJack Horseman's "bad behavior" and thinking of the consequences of his actions as if he was a real person." -- The A.V.
