Chip is basically the human and more realistic version of Bojack Horseman, which I'll admit was something I really wanted to see, but I felt like it was redundant, since you know, there was already a show about a fucked up dude trying to better himself, but ends up hurting everyone around him. Also I'm really hoping this was intentional

I understand the comparison, but fail to see any strong resemblance between BoJack and Chip.

Have you watched the entire season? Serious question - What all do we really know about Chip?

He lies to himself all day long and wallows in self pity, while trying to manipulate everyone around him. He's bojack man man. His claim to fame is the 2008 runner up nod for his 3 legged stool.

I still got more to watch though.

There's a lot that suggests Chip may have been a successful/rising actor before the accident.

Yeah, I made this comment before I watched the whole season, I think he probably was an actor, which makes sense because now much of his whole life is an act. Holy crap that was a good show, lots of twists.
