I've really been enjoying BoJack Horseman, a show I skipped back in the day. It’s laugh-out-loud funny most of the time, but by the third season, a few darker, heavier episodes start to creep in. These can really make you go yeesh and shake your head as you recognize some of BoJack's flaws in yourself. But you also get some totally unexpected episodes, like a particularly brilliant one that takes place entirely underwater, without an intelligible word spoken until the very end (this episode, iirc, also has some amazing music to go with it). Or, the episode consisting entirely of a single shot: BoJack giving a eulogy at a funeral.
The show really has an engaging storyline; several in fact, as most main characters have their own lore. With six seasons, the show has plenty of time to really develop them. Some seasons (or even certain episode arcs) focus on the struggles of supporting characters, not just BoJack. These shifts in perspective really do help to keep the show interesting and fresh. You even get to see some of the characters age as the story progresses (for example, BoJack's graying hair and Diane's weight gain); something you don't typically see in a cartoon. And I just love the goofy visual gags they put in the transition scenes, as well as Princess Carolyn's frequent bouts of alliteration. It's such a delightful show!
