Unlike most other characters on TV who have contemplated an abortion, however, Diane doesn’t experience a change of heart and opt to keep her baby, resulting in a tear-jerking, season-long character arc; nor does she find out that, whoops, false alarm, she’s not actually pregnant after all. She makes the decision to terminate her pregnancy, and ultimately goes through with it — which, even in 2016, makes BoJack Horseman one of the most progressive and revolutionary shows dealing with the abortion rights debate today.
“President Obama has taken decisive steps to protect Planned Parenthood’s federal funding once and for all, dealing a decisive blow to anti-choice religious extremists and misogynist Republicans around the country who have been fighting tirelessly to destroy the beloved reproductive healthcare provider once and for all.
“This will make a real difference in so many people’s lives. Thanks to the Obama administration, women will still be able to access the birth control they need to plan their families, and the cancer screenings they need to stay healthy!” cheered Cecile Richards, president of Planned Parenthood. “This rule makes it clear that politicians cannot ignore the law as they pursue their agenda to stop women from getting the care they need.”
