* '''Diane Nguyen''' (voiced by [[Alison Brie]]) – BoJack's [[Vietnamese-American]] [[ghostwriter]], misunderstood intellectual, and [[third-wave feminism|third-wave feminist]] from Boston who lives rent-free with her rich and famous boyfriend (and later, husband), Mr Peanutbutter. She and BoJack initially develop a strong friendship that becomes increasingly awkward and strained after BoJack develops romantic feelings for her. During her adventures in the fictional overseas Republic of Cordovia, she reaches a startling epiphany. Afterwards, she eventually suffers a mental break-down, during which she drinks heavily and sleeps in a disheveled mess on BoJack's patio furniture.
* '''Mr. Peanutbutter''' (voiced by [[Paul F. Tompkins]]) – An anthropomorphic [[Yellow Labrador]] who is BoJack's former sitcom rival and also Diane's boyfriend (and later husband). Mr. Peanutbutter was the star of ''Mr. Peanutbutter's House'', which, according to BoJack, "borrowed the premise" from ''Horsin' Around''. He also had a stint at filming a celebrity reality show called ''Peanutbutter and Jelly''. His demeanor is constantly energetic, cheerful, and neurotic. Despite their rivalry, Mr. Peanutbutter cares a great deal about BoJack's opinion and admires him for his work on ''Horsin' Around''. He has an especially good relationship with Todd, and his positive attitude and financial resources combined with Todd's outlandish schemes and plans often result in the two starting questionable business ventures, such as a Halloween store that is exclusively open in January. In the episode "Let's Find Out," Mr. Peanutbutter starts hosting his own game show.
* '''Todd Chavez''' (voiced by [[Aaron Paul]]) – An unemployed 24-year-old human [[slacker]] who ended up at BoJack's house for a party five years before the beginning of the series and never left. Although BoJack constantly voices disdain for him, he secretly cares about Todd, continuing to financially support him and sabotage his attempts to gain independence out of a fear of being alone. Todd has been shown to possess a plethora of skills including an understanding of Japanese; entrepreneurial know-how, having allied with Mr. Peanutbutter for various business ideas; and writing and composing his own [[rock opera]], but his overall laziness and video game addictions often hinder him from success.

* '''Kelsey Jannings''' (voiced by [[Maria Bamford]]) – A human who was hired to direct the "Secretariat" movie. A divorced, lesbian, independent filmmaker, she takes on the Secretariat project because it's her last chance to break into the big time and make enough money to get her daughter Irving into an Ivy League school (as opposed to [[Vassar College|Vassar]].) Cynical and initially dismissive of BoJack's talents, she and BoJack grow closer over the course of filming. She has a special fondness for Todd because she likes his face. She is later fired by Lenny Turtletaub in "The Shot" for filming a scene that involved Secretariat's encounter with [[Richard Nixon]].

This lasted until he gets discovered by Princess Carolyn upon being tipped off by Rutabaga Rabbitowitz and creates a new game show that Mr. Peanutbutter hosts.
* '''Hank Hippopopalous''' (voiced by [[Philip Baker Hall]]) – An anthropomorphic [[hippopotamus]] who is a beloved former late-night talk show host called "Hank After Dark." At the 1994 Animal's Choice Awards, he won the award for "Male Animal in a Comedy, Drama or Variety Show" which BoJack Horseman and Mr. Peanutbutter were also nominated for. Now he is the host of a dance reality competition called "Hey, I Think You Can Dance." Hank Hippopopalous is known in the TV industry as Uncle Hankie (similar to [[Milton Berle]]'s reputation as "Uncle Miltie").

The following celebrities appeared in this show as either themselves or anthropomorphic animal versions of themselves.

BoJack and others consistently refer to her as "Character Actress Margo Martindale" rather than simply address her by her forename. She was arrested helping BoJack in one of his antics. In "The Shot," Margo is later released from prison and helps BoJack film a crucial scene for "Secretariat." During a confrontation with the police, Margo ends up in a shootout with them because they never bothered to look at the credits to see what character she played in a TV show they saw her in. She also does the shoot-out in honor of actors in her category like [[John Carroll Lynch]], [[C. C. H. Pounder|C.C.H. Pounder]], and "all the other character actors who live in lucrative obscurity."
