Netflix Renews ‘BoJack Horseman,’ Reveals Premiere Dates for ‘Longmire’ and Aziz Ansari Series
“BoJack Horseman” has been renewed for Season 3 by Netflix.
The third season of the streaming service’s animated series will consist of 12 episodes set to premiere in 2016. Will Arnett (“Arrested Development”) voices BoJack, a washed-up 90’s sitcom star who has been trying to find his way through a muddle of self-loathing, whisky and failed relationships. The voice cast also includes Aaron Paul, Amy Sedaris, Alison Brie and Paul F. Tompkins. It was created by Raphael Bob-Waksberg.
The streaming giant also unveiled the premiere dates for the fourth season of “Longmire” (Sept. 10), which was picked up by Netflix after being cancelled by A&E, as well as Aziz Ansari’s new comedy series “Master of None” (Nov. 6).

Additionally, Netflix shared some details about Chelsea Handler’s upcoming film series, teased a few big projects for this fourth quarter — including Bob Odenkirk and David Cross’s four-episode sketch comedy reunion — and showed off a treasure trove of stand-up comedy specials.
