No actual nudity, some small glimpses of painting that have naked animals on them

There are a few sex scenes in the show as a whole, they're all quite brief with little to no nudity but loud moaning and kissing is present. Nudity is only extended to male buttocks and paintings of naked animals on the wall.

The show's sexual content varies from mild to moderate to (very rarely) even severe. Episodes can range from harmless sexual jokes to full on lengthy sex scenes.

A teenage dolphin pop star named Sextina Aquafina wears many revealing outfits and sings songs with provocative lyrics.

Todd builds a robot named "Henry Fondle" which has several sex toys attached and says several sexual phrases.

A young Beatrice is catcalled by a cockatoo.

A clip from one of Sarah Lynn's music videos shows her nude with her breasts and genitals obscured by planets and she is naked swinging on a replica of Saturn (parodying the video for Wrecking Ball by Miley Cyrus)

Season 1 is the most sexual.

Season 3 Episode 4 follows BoJack trying to bring a baby Seahorse back to its father, full frontal unisexual nudity of the baby is shown throughout the episode.

Season 4, Episode 4, BoJack is seen having sex with a woman behind a couch. Grunting and small moans are heard and when they pop their heads up, his clothes are disheveled and the woman's bare shoulders and the swell of her breasts is seen, implying she's naked.

One episode focuses on the topic of abortion and features a dolphin pop star singing a song about abortions with a music video that has lots of graphic imagery.

Beatrice is diagnosed with dementia and has a violent episode at a nursing home and gets kicked out.

Rarely any violence if there is it's usually mild. But there's only a few episodes with severe violence and it's usually for a few scenes.

Strong violence is occasionally portrayed in the show, and usually only aftermaths are depicted. However, brief bloody violence is depicted in some episodes.

In almost every episode, slapstick humor is depicted occasionally with a joke. For example, in an establishing shot, a bird decides to fly away before it is hit head-on by a plane.

At one point, BoJack gets severely under drug influence, and his hallucination causes him to hallucinate a vision of his ghost writer into a horrifying, grotesque monstrosity. He then remarks 'Oh shit, I'm still tripping.'This scene is played for humor and different title cards enforce that.

One of BoJack's friends gets sent to prison and has to join two rival gangs. He eventually tries to befriend both before they catch him and decide to curb-stomp his head. However, before they can do so, a helicopter manages to crash into the side of the building and the prisoners escape, forgetting their rivalry.

BoJack gets into a brief fight with the man he had back-stabbed back in the '90s, who now has terminal rectal cancer.

At one point, a Ryan Seacrest/Hollywood celebrity type on a talk show jokingly remarks how some lady who talked with him was kidnapped.

In the fictional country of Cordovia, war violence is depicted as a side character who talks to BoJack's ghost writer for a proposal close to the end of the season is shown in a war-torn background, with air-strikes and shootouts occurring around him as he acts indifferently. He is shown passively covering bodies and making swift impromptu surgery on war-torn survivors, also acting with indifference. However, he does pose with dramatic encounters or people with dastardly physical experiences and takes a picture with his cellphone.

The F word and C word are never used in a sexual manner

The F-word is used once a season for dramatic effect

The F-word plays a role of making drastic scenes more so important and is never used mindlessly or for simply for filler dialogue. It used once every season, typically in very intense or emotional scenes.

Around 460 uses of 'shit' in the entire show.

There are 6 uses of "fuck" and 1 use of "cunt" throughout the entire show.

Frequent uses of mild language such as: "shit", "bitch", "ass" and "dick" in almost every episode.

Cocaine, heroin, marijuana, DMX, horse tranquillisers, xanax and all sorts of pills are consumed throughout the show, some usage shown graphically, some times just implied.

Frequent paraphernalia.

In the episode 'Love and/or Marriage' (S3 EP5) several people are seen taking this drug called 'gush', a sort of acidic opiate pill, the consequent hallucinations are seen.

In season three, it is discovered that the name 'BoJack' is also a popular heroin brand. BoJack is also shown snorting heroin of that patent in one of season three's final episodes.

One of the season two's final episodes shows a teenage girl getting progressively drunk and eventually succumbing to alcohol poisoning.

In the second episode of season three, two characters start drinking to write a script for a new TV show, eventually they get drunk and start writing nonsense.

Frequent and graphic drinking. Cigarette smoking throughout. Occasional marijuana smoking. Occasional cocaine use. Prescription opiates are used. There is also heroin use, and a scene where a woman takes a fictional drug ("Gush") that is described as being similar to LSD and MDMA. There are also many scenes of characters taking and snorting pills

There are implications regarding drug use in almost every episode, where characters will passingly remark on situations/incidents or other characters in conjunction with drug use, and some episodes feature actual drug use being depicted by various characters in the series. Pills and other forms of drug paraphernalia can be seen in the background occasionally in almost every episode as well.

One of BoJack's former co-stars is a serious addict and throughout the show she is seen consuming countless amounts of drugs and alcohol.

BoJack is a welcomer to alcoholism and drinks different forms of alcohol (e.g. bourbon, whiskey, tequila, etc.) in almost every episode. He drinks from a flask frequently, at one point is shown drinking a few consecutively in a flashback. (In the series opening title, BoJack is depicted getting drunk at a party, at one point holding a glass of alcohol, then stumbling over the edge of his penthouse into his pool.)

While the show's genre is comedy and has lots of comedic moments, it overall has an extremely emotionally upsetting, depressing and traumatizing tone. The subject matter is incredibly profound, various touchy themes are tackled upon in an extremely mature, down-to-earth and thought-provoking manner, and there's an all-around sense of sheer bleakness and horrible misery.

The show gets progressively darker and bleaker each season, it may in fact be the most depressing cartoon of all time.

When she was younger, BoJack's mother, Beatrice, was forced to take weight-loss-supplements since her family was against the idea of women gaining any weight. In fact, Beatrice was also deprived of any sort of dessert as a child, and had to drink lemon water if she wanted a snack.

The show's titular character is certainly not a good person, often hurting people (including his friends) and having a generally pessimistic view on life.

Not scary or traditionally suspenseful by any means, but very emotionally intense and in many cases, depressing.

The show is free of a formulaic resolution to each episode and therefore, it will often end an episode on a dark or depressing note with little to no resolution, meaning that after a shocking event occurs, things don't magically resolve by the end of the 25 minutes, actions have long-term consequences in the show.

Diane is racially profiled by American tourists while on vacation in Vietnam.

The main character is a bit of a jerk and moody because of his awful past/childhood.

The protagonist is not the most positive person; he's pretty much is in distress all the time and takes out his feelings on other people and is mean to them.

The series deals with suicidal intentions or thoughts throughout the seasons. This is very distressing.
