The Game Awards 2019 just happened and we have plenty to say about the nominations and winners, plus our reviews on the final season of Bojack Horseman and the Amazon Prime show Undone.
First, we remind everyone we are still a videogames podcast by recapping the events of The Game Awards. Despite very controversial nominations, this year had a few pleasant surprises. And no, we're not talking about the obnoxious amount of ads or marketing material that padded out the show.
Next, we finally get round to talking about our favourite self-destructive stallion, Bojack Horseman. The show is wrapping up with its final redemption arc underway, but there is a second parter to the season coming next year. We look at the narrative trajectory and speculate how the writers are looking to conclude the series.
Lastly, we review the Amazon Prime series Undone, starring Rosa Salazar and Bob Odenkirk. The show featuring a familiar, rotoscoped animation style akin to Richard Linklater's Waking Life and A Scanner Darkly. It tells the story of a young woman, after surviving a near-fatal car accident, who starts seeing visions of her deceased father. He sets her off on a mission to discover how he died, as she struggles with her inner demons and mental illness.
