Raphael Bob-Waksberg, The Creator Of 'BoJack Horseman,' On Finding Comedy In Tragedy

BoJack Horseman, which stars Will Arnett, is about a horse who battles depression, substance abuse, and the tantalizing short-lived nature of fame and relevance in Hollywood. The critically acclaimed animated Netflix series oscillates from the deeply tragic to the wonderfully silly.

We speak with creator Raphael Bob-Waksberg about the cartoon and his new collection of short stories.

Raphael Bob-Waksberg will be at the Brattle Theatre on Friday at 6 p.m.
