Surely you’ve heard the expression “You’re in the dog house.” Just as surely, it probably didn’t turn you on, sexually speaking. However, what this post pre-supposes is … what if it did?
Tonight, on the other side of the pond in jolly old England, a new documentary called the Secret Life Of Human Pups will premiere on Channel 4 (thanks to our pals at Jezebel for the heads up). It’s about the “secretive subculture of men who dress and behave like dogs. Why do they covet doggy treats, belly rubs and squeaky toys?” Great question, and we haven’t slightest the clue. No word yet on when it will premiere here Stateside, but you can bet we’ll fetch that information for you as soon as it becomes available. Now, if you’ll pardon us, we have to go pee on a fire hydrant.

Netflix has set the official premiere date for Season 3 of its animated comedy series, Bojack Horseman. The streaming platform released an announcement video today, which you can watch below, for the brand new 12-episode season that will debut on Friday, July 22nd.
For those who have yet to familiarize themselves with the Critics Choice Award-winning series, Bojack Horseman centers around a washed up horseman actor (voiced by Will Arnett) who was once the star of a cancelled faux series titled Horsin’ Around. Created by Raphael Bob-Waksberg, the comedy also features vocals from Amy Sedaris, Alison Brie, Aaron Paul (who plays Bojack’s couch-surfing friend Todd) and Paul F. Tompkins.
According to Variety, Season 3 will pick up where Season 2 left off, following a depressed Bojack who continues to struggle with his constantly changing role in the Secretariat biopic and his ongoing existential crisis of trying to be relevant to the world.
