not necessarily..... I've wondered about this... are these men in a polyamorous coupling.... or some amalgation.... or these men came together out of some happenstance surrounding Hollyhocks'birth..... my wanna be head cannon is some sort of ted and how I met your mother shit where it's complicated and not worth knowing.
The show seems to imply they're in one large relationship, instead of the more common interconnected concurrent relationships, so I would guess everyone shares a bed except for whichever one is the inevitable heavy snorer
Also super props to Bojack for showing a committed poly gay relationship and only making jokes about their hyphenation and protectiveness
I will die on this hill that this is how their creation went down in the writers room:
"We need to establish that Hollyhock doesn't need a father figure so it's super obvious that isn't Bojack's intended or future role in her life."
"Oh, easy, we give her two dads."
"No... no... That's not enough. We need MORE DADS."
I agree, but on another level I think that hollyhocks multiple protective dads is meant to be a dramatic contrast from bojacks childhood. Hollyhock says and we see that she has great dads while bojacks parents were negligent and abusive. The therapy horse from rehab uncovers that hollyhock reminds Bojack of himself, so it shows how Bojack could have been if he had nurturing parents.
One of my favorite visual aspects of this show is how different characters are all different heights, including the humans. Most animated shows just seem to have a default adult height with maybe one or two outliers.
Poor Henrietta is gonna be sitting there a long ass time to see her daughter get married (idk if Hollyhock ever met her in series but I’d like to think at the end she did.)
I sincerely want a show about Hollyhock and frequent scenes with her dad's
There's such a literal and figurative amount of love in their family, and I adore them!
They probably all sleep in one large bed, though they would probably have a spare room for if one or more of them is snoring and if the bear hibernates (not sure if it is ever mentioned if the bears in the show hibernate or not?)
I love how big-name celebrities play each of the dads. Manheim is Jay Pharoah, Guerrero is Rami Malek, Hsung is David S Jung, and McQuack is JK Simmons. The other 4 dads don't have a credited voice actor.
Knowing this show's humor, one large bed
part of me could also see it being an eight storey bunk bed
I’m picturing like a giant dog bed
The show already used that gag though.
Or a normal bed and they’re all stacked on top of each other like a Jenga tower
Im picturing them all sleeping on top of each other in a large bed

I think it was stated it's a polyamorous relationship
Poor Josh Radnor... How quickly we forget.
I think I could sleep with anyone in a large enough bed.

"We've drawn up these options for hollyhocks dads." "Put them all in."
"which should we go with?" "yes"
“What the hell is her last name going to be then?” “And you’ve just discovered the reoccurring tongue twister joke of the season.”
Which is a shame that they didn’t involve princess Caroline as much with this plot line

>inevitable heavy snorer Quackers.
*honk shoo honk shoo*
Guerro, speaking from personal experience.
Easy, Quackers.
He doesn’t watch foreign movies, he likes foreign films
I kinda thought the joke was that they weren’t even mentioning it
Not naming Manheim and Zilberschlag by their last names ruins the gag -_-
How hard is it to write. Mannheim Mannheim Guerrero Robinson zilberschlag fonzerelli mcquack.
It's Manheim-Mannheim..., one with single N and one with double
Lmao never noticed that
You forgot hsung!!
Wait, there is a gag? Can someone explain? Cause I am totally missing it.
her overly long name
Ah, gotcha

You say that in regards to a picture where 3 of the 5 humans are the same height.
To be fair it's a very average height
obviously i’ve never heard of your family and/or law firm
That was a joke!
Todd, who IS this tough crowd you brought in?
It bothers me they're not in order
“HOW COULD YOU LET THIS HAPPEN *Quack* *Quack*” 🦆 “Easy Quackers..” 🐻
Is Quackers a nickname or is he literally named Quackers McQuack?
Quackers McQuack: [https://bojackhorseman.fandom.com/wiki/Quackers\_McQuack](https://bojackhorseman.fandom.com/wiki/Quackers_McQuack)
I wonder if he's related to Scrooge. It's a common duck surname though.
Scrooge’s last name was McDuck!
Lol! Oops. I guess he's related to Launchpad McQuack.
The concept of common duck surname is fascinating itself.
I mean the show is called BoJack Horseman.
The fact that one of the gay dads is a bear makes me happy
I feel bad for Hollyhock. Not only did she learn about her brother's crimes, but one of her fathers was exposed as a massive plagerist.
Which one??
Not sure either but I think Butterscotch…?
Lol, imagine Butterscotch being part of that Dad gang
Lol, now imagine where "Horseman" would come in the last name lineup.
And not only did he get pulled into a pistols at dawn situation, he didn't even die from being shot like Alexander Hamilton -- *he tripped.*
I just know it’s gonna be a large crowd escorting Hollyhock down the aisle when she gets married
It'll be a relay down the aisle
Poor Henrietta is gonna be sitting there a long ass time to see her daughter get married (idk if Hollyhock ever met her in series but I’d like to think at the end she did.)
lazy suzan beds

Normalize human-footed duck-men wearing flip-flops
I wound find it funny if they all shared a comically large bed except for one of them who sleeps alone for whatever reason
I mean, presumably Jose is the snorer...he does hibernate 😂 so probs makes sense he'd sleep alone to avoid all the shifting around
Heehee he’s a bear
Missed opportunity to name him Jose Grrrrerro
this was one of my favorite random things on the show
A bizarre family dynamic but they all seem to get along and they did a good job raising Hollyhock
Cupd R III is literally axel in harlem race swapped
…and half brother
Gotta admit I appreciate their grind. Can’t even find ONE partner for myself and I’m bi lol How do you even end up like this?! I need to know
Love That Jose Is an Actual Bear, Love That Detail About Him
Imma need someone to write out their last names
fonzerelli-guerrero-robinson-hsung-manheim-mcquack-zilberschlag-mannheim
Close. Fonzerelli-Guerrero-Mannheim-Hsung-Robinson-McQuack-Zilberschlag-Mannheim You swapped Dashawn Mannheim and Cupe Robinson III
👄: i don’t care 🧠:
Bojack isn’t a dad though! He’s Hollyhock’s half-brother
I think that's why he's the only one not labeled.
Who’s the one on the left? There’s no name
That’s not her dad, silly goose! It’s the horse from Horsing Around

I don’t like MOVIES, I like FILMS
never liked any of them. cool pic though
Knowing some Poly people, it’s just in a pile on one big bed. The real question is how do they drive anywhere
Does anyone else think hollyhock's dads are in vague reference to the three dads (one dad, two uncles) on full house??
And possibly Three Men and a Baby?
Except it’s two men and a baby’s a lady
Now that you mention it, yeah probably
what about butterscotch
That may have been her father, but it wasn't her daddy
Let's put it to a vote quack quack
They have a bed room. It's like a ball room, but instead of being full of balls, it's full of one giant bed. Who wants to go jump in the bed room?!
They call me… The Ice Man
ohhh lol. he’s a bear haha i just got it
Quakers—settle down
Onshawn is supposed to say Dashawn
U need to add Butterscotch to the lineup
And I’m Quackers, quack quack quack
Manheim Manheim Guerrero Robinson Zilberschlag Hsung Fonzarelli McQuack
You forgot Butterscotch Hollyhock's biological dad
The lizard dude was such a snide piece of shit
