YouTube’s top creators are burning out

Has anyone watched the Netflix series bojack horseman? It seems to deal with this topic of burnout and mental health in a very realistic and touching way. In case you haven’t seen it, it’s about an actor who makes it big for one tv show but becomes aimless and depressed once the show was over.

Bojack has been like a remote group therapy session for me in this regard. Especially leading up to the season 2 finale with that running scene.

Bojack isn't hilarious. It funny sometimes, but it mostly feels important. Like work. Rewarding to watch for having done the work.

Slightly OT: BoJack Horseman hits the nail right on the head in so many aspects regarding human nature, social interactions, mental health etc. The characters are so deeply human in many capacities. The series manages to talk about some heavy topics in a comedic setting while not making it seem silly. Highly recommendable!

Just pointing out for the historical record: this is an animated show, not live action.

I will be checking it out, tho, for certain.
