First introduced as BoJack's clueless roommate, Todd has gone through just as much introspection and evolution as all of BoJack's other deeply messed up characters, both human and animal alike, and in the fourth season, he came out as asexual . It made for great TV, not just because Todd's previous behavior in his love life could be recontextualized upon repeated viewing, but because it offered an incredibly rare instance of asexual representation on-screen.
"I was so proud to represent that community," Paul recently told BuzzFeed News. "So many people came up to me, or have been coming up to me, since that came out, saying, 'I didn't know what I was. You have given me a community that I didn't even know existed,' which is just so heartbreaking, but also so beautiful, you know?"
Since Todd came out, he has been grappling with what it means to date while asexual something asexual viewers can relate to. (Being asexual might mean having no sexual desires, but being aromantic , with no romantic feelings or desire to pursue a relationship, is a separate identity.)
"I think it's so nice to have a character on TV especially on a show so powerful like BoJack that represents a community that should be represented," Paul added.
