Bob's Burgers

While I don't find this as good as "Rick And Morty" or even H. Jon Benjamin's other show "Archer", this is still a lot of fun. I really do find the animation funny. The creator has stated that yes, the character designs were in fact inspired by the Muppets. The funniest thing is that I find myself singing the intro to "The Muppet Show" when I see the theme song to this. The story is as basic as it can be, with a guy named Bob running a restaurant named after his burgers. The biggest appeal to this is probably how authentic it is. Despite the fact that the animation is goofy, it comes off as very realistic and the characters do behave like real people. The voice acting is wonderful in this.

Every character has a distinct voice that matches their personality perfectly. It's pretty funny to hear Tina when she's trying to be angry or some other emotion. I simply can not speak ill of anything Kristen Schaal. "Gravity Falls" may be over, but may that voice live on forever with Louise...or at least until this show ends as well. It's hard to pick a favorite character because they are all so funny. Gene is probably the most entertaining, although Louise might be the most eccentric. I just love the idea of a character like Tina who writes fanfics in-universe of her favorite things. It's especially funny because of all the porn she makes. Yes, a perfect reflection of fandom indeed.

The episodes are really quite unpredictable and there's always some new real life adventure these funny characters are getting into. I think my favorite episode might be the one with the mechanical shark. It's just hilarious to see this thing get more powerful as they try to stop it. I like Tina's Romeo and Juliet-esque relationship with Jimmy Junior. Yes, I'm a brony too. I'm just going to reference every other cartoon in existence in this review, aren't I? I will complain about how "King Of The Hill" can be boring as a slice of life story but this is just a lot funnier with better characters who are always saying funny things and actively getting into some new predicament.

I'm impressed at how they have yet to have any supernatural elements introduced as almost every show has at least one paranormal episode or magic realism. Well, they might share a Universe with "Archer" which had some unrealistic stuff, but then again that could have just been a non canonical joke, kind of like when Bob had a cameo in that "Family Guy"/"The Simpsons" crossover. Man, degrees of separation are weird. ***1/2.

I can't believe the amount of flack this show is receiving from the simple-minded and humorless... I have news for everyone: New episodes of the Simpsons are trash... Family Guy hasn't been relevant or clever in ages... American Dad and The Cleveland Show are rip-off cash-ins. I actually read one comment that stated "Give Seth Macfarlane another show!" God forbid! I was a huge fan of Futurama, About the first 10 seasons of the Simpsons, Clone High, Mission Hill, Undergrads, About the first four seasons of Family Guy... so on and so forth. This is the first show that has made me really laugh in a long time. It's clever, and the humor is a bit dryer and more subtle. There are some pretty crude stuff I suppose...

I dunno. I seriously think that people have forgotten what it's like to watch something that isn't preachy, in-your-face, and blatant.

At least this show incorporates its jokes into the story and episode arch... as opposed to Family Guy's idiotic asides...

I used to actively communicate to others that this show sucked. I hadn't even watched one full episode! I've seen every episode of family guy, futurama, and American dad many many times and I was getting bored of reruns. I saw this on demand and thought I might as well give it a try. I put on the first episode and was like "Yup it's crap just like I remembered, but I can't take seeing more reruns so I'll just leave it on in the background while I scroll online" A few episodes later I was hooked. Some people don't like the simplicity of the animation but that's what makes it unique. I love the hand drawn look. I used to hate that all the characters "sounded the same" I used to say. Now I think it's funny that they have masculine sounding voices.

Bobs characters is truly amazing and Lynn is so lovable. The kids are absolutely hilarious I will admit sometimes Gene try's too hard to make jokes but that's just the way gene is. He's always being a jokester. My favourite is Louise and Tina. I like the socially awkward Tina and the mature witty yet childlike Louise. These characters all have such depth that you really don't see in other cartoons. I really like that. I very much dislike teddy. The names of characters are also hilarious. Fish odour omg love it. I say watch one season before you give up on this one. It takes time to get to know the amazing characters. It took me a while to come around.

I loved this series! I wish it would come back to Netflix - it is so funny, cute and quirky!

Bobs Burgers is the definition of relaxation. Everything about bobs burgers just works. The acting is on point and is easily one of the best voice acting today. Each plot works perfectly. And the animation is great. This is a short but sweet review, because there really isn't anything to say other than to watch it. This show is going to run for a long time and it should. Overall this is a must watch show for anyone who likes comedy, it is very consistent and is the best adult animation show running currently. Between that Archer and Rick & Morty. It is a likeable show with likeable characters with great writing and animation.
