** Even funnier? In the scene, Mr. Peanutbutter's business accountant, Oxnard, openly talks about the move with disdain (even if he doesn't outright say it, he clearly thinks it is a stupid idea and a waste of money). Oxnard's voice actor, [[Creator/JakeJohnson Jake Johnson]], would end up starring in the [[Film/{{Tag}}Tag]] film.

!!''WesternAnimation/BoJackHorseman''
HilariousInHindsight in this series.
----
* "Live Fast, Diane Nguyen" had a few [[TakeThat jabs]] at Derek Jeter. The same year the show premiered, Jeter played his final season before retiring.
* The CriticalDissonance to "[[ShowWithinAShow Horsin' Around]]" is near identical to that of [=BoJack=] Horseman's first season.
* Towards the end of Season 2, Todd joins a cult-like improv group. Not long after, Aaron Paul starred in cult drama ''Series/ThePath''.
* In "Later", [=BoJack=] wins the Golden Globe for "Best Musical/Comedy" for his book, "One Trick Pony", which he's upset with, as the book was more of a Drama, than a Musical or a Comedy (and for the fact that it's a ''book'', whereas the Golden Globes are to acknowledge movies and television). Just two years later, the Golden Globes fell under real life scrutiny for nominating (and awarding) ''Film/TheMartian'' in the same category, despite many (including the film's own director) arguing that the movie was more of a drama.
* In January 2017, about two and a half years after "Our A Story is a D Story", someone [[http://www.cnn.com/2017/01/01/us/hollywood-hollyweed-sign/index.html actually vandalized with the Hollywood sign.]] Unfortunately, the name "Hollyweed" didn't last the same way "Hollywoo" did.
* Mr. Peanutbutter and Todd paid $50,000 to kindergartners for the film rights to the game of tag. In 2018, [[Film/{{Tag}} Warner Bros. made a real movie based on the game of tag]].
* Mr. Peanutbutter reading off the wrong names for the Oscar Nominations was made extra hilarious when the Oscars announced the wrong ''winner'' in 2017.
* ''Ethan Around'' is written to include Bojack despite his character's death at the end of the original series. Not long afterward, the revival of ''Series/{{Roseanne}}'' was announced, [[spoiler:with Creator/JohnGoodman as part of the cast, despite the show's infamous SuddenDownerEnding which states that [[{{Retcon}} Dan died of a heart attack before Season 9]]]].
* A few years after the digital Bojack in ''Secretariat'', a movie studio named Magic City Films [[https://www.msn.com/en-us/movies/news/director-of-new-james-dean-movie-speaks-out-over-backlash-to-stars-casting/ar-BBWqQAR?li=AA30Mu actually announced]] they'd be using a digital recreation of Creator/JamesDean in their upcoming film ''Finding Jack'', leading to them being roundly ridiculed.
* After being made a pariah, Bojack meets up with fellow Hollywoo powder keg Vance Waggoner and they collaborate on a new film together. In real life, problematic actors Mel Gibson and Sean Penn co-starred in ''The Professor and the Madman''.
* In "The View For Halfway Down", Creator/ZachBraff points out that he's best friends with Donald Faison in real life. Not long after the episode aired, Braff started a ''Series/{{Scrubs}}'' recap podcast with Faison called ''Fake Doctors, Real Friends''.
* Mr. Peanutbutter describing Felicity Huffman as a "beloved actress of film and television" in "Stupid Piece of Shit" might prompt ironic laughter nowadays, after Huffman was implicated in the [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2019_college_admissions_bribery_scandal 2019 college admissions scandal]].
* The gag that Creator/BradPitt and Creator/LeonardoDicaprio look exactly the same must have been noticed by Creator/QuentinTarantino, as Brad plays Leo's stunt double in ''Film/OnceUponATimeInHollywood''.
* In "Commence Fracking," Princess Carolyn gets a watch called an "iOvulate" that tracks her fertility. Five years later, the Apple Watch Series 8 introduced fertility and ovulation tracking, though unlike the iOvulate, Harvey Fierstein doesn't give the updates.
* Gina's favorite musical, ''A Kernel of Truth,'' is a ridiculous musical about corn. Now it looks like a retroactive parody of the Broadway musical ''Shucked,'' a (deliberately) ridiculous musical about corn.
