Netflix has announced that season 4 of Bojack Horseman will be streaming on September 8th. The promo art was sent from Bojack’s twitter, followed by the tweet “how do i make a picture on the internet go away.”

Spoilers for season 3 of Bojack Horseman follow:

It’s been about a year since last season, which was a series of new lows for the Horse-Man. After losing his Oscar nomination, he continued the down spiral we’ve seen from season 1, leading him to continue losing people close to him. A falling out with his roommate leads Todd to tell Bojack what’s really wrong with him, is him. Bojack finds in Sarah Lynn someone to connect with, solely on the grounds that she is as messed up as he is. Over the first three seasons they both struggle with their own type of fame, Bojack finding it hard to cope with his irrelevancy and Sarah Lynn as a washed up young starlet.

We don’t get as much soul searching from Sarah Lynn as we do from Bojack, but if this show was about her, it would be just as (if not more) depressing. At least Bojack has a sort of support system around him, however weak it may be. Todd, Diane, Princess Carolyn, and Mr. Peanutbutter keep him afloat for most of the series. This is why after these relationships break following firing Carolyn and and his falling out with Todd, we see Bojack’s attempted suicide. If Bojack didn’t have that system it would be a much shorter show. Imagine, now, Sarah Lynn’s situation, with the only type of support she has is Bojack, who is obviously not able to handle that. The passing of Sarah Lynn doesn’t serve so much of a wake of to Bojack as it does a premonition.

With Todd finding a comfortable relationship with Emily, Diane getting a new job, and Carolyn making her way as a manager, Bojack has lost his own support system. What’s interesting to note is what drives Bojack over the edge is not solely the death of Sarah Lynn. It’s Bojack’s co-star on Ethan Around telling Bojack he wants to be just like him when he grows up. With this Bojack sees the wheel reset and start turning again. Young Ethan is the spitting image of a young Sarah Lynn, and Bojack refuses to let that happen again. Literally letting go of the wheel, the only thing that stops Bojack from killing himself is a pack of wild horses running along the highway. I doubt this sets up a serious soul-searching redemption arc where he joins these horses and is born again, but Bojack is at the lowest point possible. It can only go up from here. Then again, this is Bojack Horseman we’re talking about.

This season of Bojack Horseman will show Bojack, for the first time, seriously confronting himself. Facing his own demons will make for the darkest and most depressing season yet, even after a death and an attempted suicide last season. And of course, it’ll be good for a bunch of laughs. It’s strange how well those two fit together for Bojack.

There hasn’t been much buzz lately about any new acquisitions in the world of video game intellectual property. According to a recent report, Sony is currently engaged in discussions with a well-funded partner to potentially acquire the renowned film studio Paramount, along with all the exciting possibilities that come with such a merger.

As reported in the New York Times (thanks, ResetEra), Sony Picture Entertainment is reportedly in discussions with Apollo Global Management, an investment firm, as per two sources familiar with the matter. In the past, Apollo had made an offer to acquire Paramount for a minimum of $26 billion, but their bid was ultimately turned down.

The terms of the joint bid are currently under discussion, and there is a chance that the two parties may decide against making a formal offer. Unnamed sources have revealed that Paramount is currently in exclusive discussions with Skydance, preventing any official offer from being made at this time. Investor opposition to the recent deal that Skydance brought seems to have been significant.

The potential impact of such an acquisition is immense. First and foremost, it would introduce adaptations of Sonic and Halo into the expanding media empire of the PlayStation platform holder. Following the announcement, Paramount’s stock experienced a significant 11% surge in after-hours trading.
