One more #throwbackthursday Thumbnail set. These for the most recent SAYER poster I was lucky enough to get to design. Especially with SAYER S6 being the shows final season I'm so happy I got to be a small part of it.

I've just binged a bunch of the episodes to catch up. My emotions are doing somersaults and I can't wait to see how the rest of the story plays out.

I haven't included the full final design in this one, 'cuz it was a S6 kickstarter reward and still feels pretty recent but we've got the little cropped version currently being used as the season cover artwork :)

Also people in the SAYER community have said some really nice things about my work in comments or in tags and I never know how to thank them. You are all super kind and make me very proud to be a fan of SAYER, and I'm sorry I'm not great at interacting, but thank you, I really do appreciate it.

“This is nice.”

Hell yeah Bojack writers.

It’s hard to get all the things I admire about this show out in a single post, but in short, I’m so in awe of the writers ability to deal with such harsh real world issues with care, compassion and humour. Whilst at no point diminishing how horrible and genuinely traumatizing they are. ‘Time’s Arrow’ and ‘The View From Halfway Down’ are my absolute favourite episodes and I’ll be thinking about them for a while.

I love that the ending doesn’t feel completely hopeless. It’s not perfect, not happily ever after and not all questions answered… But it’s satisfying enough…. you can fill in a lot of gaps for yourself. It doesn’t feel like a full stop on all of the characters stories and lives. And I love that. You know they’ve still got growing to do, and hopefully they’ll continue to do it after the credits. Because life goes on. It’s not happy but it’s hopeful. It feels very Bojack. I’d say it’s realistically hopeful too. You can’t change what you’ve done, you have to take responsibility for it all. Face the consequences today, and you can do better tomorrow…. but no one has to stick around to watch you do it.

Hell yeah Bojack writers.
