Raphael Bob-Waksberg discusses blending comedy and drama in new Netflix series 'Long Story Short'

Whatever you do, don't tell Emmy-nominated animation aficionado Raphael Bob-Waksberg that his shows might give you anxiety.

Despite creating a critically acclaimed series like BoJack Horseman — a show that sparked endless discourse about depression, existentialism and generational trauma while somehow remaining very funny — Bob-Waksberg insists his goal isn't to send viewers spiraling.

This time around, Bob-Waksberg is telling his most personal story yet with Netflix's animated comedy-drama Long Story Short.
