  BoJack Horseman : "Horsin' Around" is filmed before a live studio audience.

  Sabrina : [sighs]  Mondays.

  [canned laughter] 

  BoJack Horseman : Well, good morning to you, too.

  Sabrina : Oh, hey.

  BoJack Horseman : Where? I love hay!

  Charlie Rose : In 1987, the situation comedy "Horsin' Around" premiered on ABC. The show, in which a young, bachelor horse is forced to reevaluate his priorities when he agrees to raise three human children, was initially dismissed by critics as broad and saccharine and not good, but the family comedy struck a chord with America and went on to air for nine seasons. The star of "Horsin' Around", BoJack Horseman, is our guest tonight. Welcome, BoJack.

  BoJack Horseman : It is good to be here, Charlie. Sorry I was late. The traffic...

  Charlie Rose : It's really no problem.

  BoJack Horseman : I parked in a handicapped spot, I hope that's okay.

  Charlie Rose : Please don't.

  BoJack Horseman : 'Cause I I think the show's actually pretty solid for what it is. It's not Ibsen, sure, but look, for a lot of people, life is just one long, hard kick in the urethra, and sometimes when you get home from a long day of getting kicked in the urethra, you just want to watch a show about good, likable people who love each other, where, you know, no matter what happens, at the end of 30 minutes, everything's gonna turn out okay. You know, because in real life... Did I already say the thing about the urethra?

  Charlie Rose : Well, let's talk about real life. What have you been doing since the show's cancellation?

  BoJack Horseman : That's a great question, Charlie. I, uh... Uh, I... Um...
