I consider myself a very easily entertained person but holy shit im half way through this show and it hasn't gotten one single audible laugh out of me. I like the other animated sitcoms like Archer, american dad, family guy, south park etc but this one is just not funny to me at all.
Oh no.
>>150928400>im half way through THE FIRST SEASON of this show*
>>150928400>I like the other animated sitcoms like Archer, american dad, family guy, south park etc Do you like King of the Hill or Home Movies? Cuz Bob's is basically a marriage of those two shows.
>>150928400Around season 2 to about 8 or 9
>>150928400Just give it one more episode, it'll grow on ya
>>150928400Bob's Burgers is more entertaining than "funny." I like the new episodes because they're still creative concepts, like the snack smuggling one or the cheese-throwing one.

>>150930986cuteness
>>150928414No?
I don't hate the show as much as most do here, but the constant shoehorning of musical numbers is just cringe as fuck.
>>150930513It's not entertaining. It's noise. It's background noise for people who can't handle not having something on for more than a minute.
>>150928400I literally think the funniest thing ever was when Tina say Hi to a cockatoo and it parrots back "SQUAWK NERD ALERT" and Tina just softly utters a clearly shocked "what" with a subtle upwards infliction towards the end so it's more "whaat".
Ive added it to my list of "background noise when doing things" show
>>150928400>>150928448So Bob's Burgers right now has 301 episodes which means you got to spend 4 days watching nothing but Bob's Burgers and it's funny to think someone doing 2 day marathon of Bob's Burgers wondering not laughing once.
>>150932225last Gayle episode has taught me that Gayle is funny when she's full of herself.
>>150931917Looking back you can really see the quality and tolerability of those fake songs dip when they went from being in the background to front and center.
There is a legitimate episode coming up this season that's about Tina buying a tube top.
>>150932635Gayle is a fan favorite. shes not on bob's burgers often..
>>150933435>Gayle is a fan favorite Well for the longest time I was not a fan, I saw how Linda make people walk on eggshells with Gayle and in turn made me see Gayle as too fragile to function but Gayle lately has been marching to the beat of her own drum and I like her now.
>>150932635>one of the funniest episodes in recent memory is a Gayle episode Maybe it's just cuz of how horny it was, but it had more energy in it than I've come to expect from newer seasons
>>150933835>is she saying "bahnned"?
>>150933835Y'know I immediately noticed them coming back from that aeason 15 hiatus with lot more zest to their episodes.
>>150934393>zest HA! FOOD PUN!
>>150933435Is this actually true? I thought Gayle fucking sucks.
>>150935134They been course correcting her where at the very least she is independent and somewhat capable. All they had to do was legitimize her identity as an artist and it helps explain her shameless attention whoring and melodramatics.
>>150931234https://vocaroo.com/1mvjpwX9kI5E
>>150933415I'd like to see that
>>150936858What are the chances they're bringing back the twins and explicitly referencing their size?
>>150931234Fun Fact but often ignored Fact: that little black girl, Aliah, who went on before Louise was famous R&B singer H.E.R. who actually sang "around the tree" after the credits. Most people don't even recognize it's H.E.R. though because she got credited her real name of Gabriella Wilson.
>>150933415>>150936858feel like they can still chicken out and make it about showing midriff or even bare shoulders.
>>150934393not just zestier but also less morose, Louise hasn't been such a sad sack lately.
>>150937845I wouldn't say "No" to the kids showing bare shoulders
>>150929184It's a killer combo. You can really see how both influences came together in those earlier episodes https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rncE0LNpO3o There's the edge and awkwardness Bouchard has been known to do, but also the heart from Dauterive and the KOTH writers he likely brought along
>>150937951same but with the tube top episode are they gonna address the two elephants in the room or are they gonna make it about Tina's midriff and bare shoulders?
>>150937998I hope they don't just show Tina in one, but Louise and Gene as well.
>>150937960I always wish the kids in Bob's Burgers could act more like the kids in Home Movies. it may have been less realistic for them to kinda act like lil' young professionals but sometime being more realistic can stonewall characters.
>>150938082that'd be fun, just a whole episode about Bob and Linda wondering if as parents they should say anything about without it coming off as prudish or stuffy where all the while Louise and Gene start shopping for nike pro shorts and stripped stockings.
>>150928400Then its just not your show. I think Bobs Burgers isn't a show for everyone. But here's my favorite joke if you care:https://youtu.be/t9TfgMM7Xto?si=HZkUEXICEKr4AFq2
>>150928400I like it when Louis is with Logan.
>>150938152I disagree. If you want Home Movies, you can watch Home Movies. I've always loved how believably weird and clueless all the Wagstaff students are.
>>150938276The show paradoxically focuses a lot on Louise while also ignoring all the other spicy character like Logan and Millie that has sparks with Louise.
>>150938385sure but sometimes kids can be weirdly preceptive and savy.
>>150938441As is also shown in the series. I even find myself impressed whenever the writers strike a balance between Tina being cripplingly autistic yet still very astute.
>>150938501when you stare at Butts every day you begin to pick up on subtle social ques.
>>150938385>>150938501The problem is when the power levels don't match up like if Tina is being human while Tammy or Jimmy jr are being teen caricatures is when it starts getting dissonant.
>>150938638Examples?
>>150938666Well with Jimmy jr I usually think about that Valentine episode with Nat Kinkle where him being a dumb boy seems to go beyond even basic survival instincts.But both him and Tammy are stuck in a loop with Tina where they gotta enforce the distinction that Tina is less popular and therefore is in a weaker social standing then them.
>>150938209Striped stockings for Gene.Courtney is used to Gene, but Logan is very uncomfortable with Gene and Louis who is wearing a tube top and dolphin shorts.Instead of her usual Mary Janes, she sports flipflops.
>>150938847Basically I'm saying it feels like Tammy and Jimmy jr acting out as satire of the popular girl or the hot guy in a teen drama should single them out as weirder and less cool than Tina who just goes around doing stuff that would realistically makes her the most popular girl in school.
>>150938977Miami Louise.
>>150938977>>150939023>Louise with flip flopsCanonical.
If you don't like it maybe don't watch it instead of complaining about it on the internet, pretty easy to do.
>>150939117But pointless bitiching is what the internet is great at!
>>150932482I’ve seen that episode a thousand times since my wife has Bob’s Burgers on a running loop in our house and that bit still makes me laugh every time
>>150939117OPs bitching was 100x more constructive than the shit you find on Twitter all day. In the piece of shit internet of today, discussions usually start with "This is shit, I don't elaborate, and you're shit for liking it, and here's an AI image to you can share this even harder in pointless neckbeard rage", followed by comments on how OP is a nigger or worse, a woman, while he is, in fact, a corpo or a bot.
>>150939163>>150932482
>>150939163>>150939117https://youtu.be/r0C-OM650uIHaha how does that sound offended and confused at the same time?
>>150938847>>150938998I see what you mean now. Yeah, Tammy's role definitely gives off the show's age. The writers are getting older and still using tired archetypes whenever they need some conflict between Wagstaff teens. I can buy Tina still having enough insecurities to be easily swayed by Tammy's teasing, but it is worth addressing the elephant in the room.
>>150939314>still using tired archetypes whenever they need some conflict between Wagstaff teensEspecially when you try and think what ks even the conflict between Tina and Tammy is even supposed to be about.It's not about Zeke because Tammy's interest in him died out after her first episode, it's not really about popularity because Wagstaff doesn't have much of a social hierarchy, it's all perpetuated by the preconception that popular girls are like Tammy and unpopular girls are like Tina.
>>150939604Ironically the more subversive take I'm imagining just comes from me realistically taking stock of Tina's situation and conclude she has everything it takes to be the most popular girl in school.>She has big boobsImmediate advantage. >She's actually legit funny Like it's a comedy show sure but the girl clearly does a lot of improvised wordplay and dirty jokes, which is actually a shared Belcher Sister trait inherited from Bob's wit and Linda's theatrics.>she's adventurous and courageous Sometime being popularity is just about sticking yourself out there and Tina is always doing that.>her family owns a dinerLogan clearly shows what a great teen hangout that could be.>she lives near the beachAnother great teen hangout, these are great places for a teenage girl with big boobs to be noticed at.>she used to sell drugsIt's a crazy ass reputation to have for a 13 year old girl but it's also pretty badass.
>>150938977>Striped stockings for Gene>Courtney is used to Gene>Gene and Courtney with matching striped stockings
>>150938276>I like it when Louis is with Logan.>Louise>those greentexts where a crossdressing Louise queerbaits Logan
>>150940037Poor gay lil' Gene :(At least he's pretty :)
>>150939844This gets my vote.
>>150940140If I had my way Bob's Burgers would be about a rambunctious trio of queer crazy slutty sisters treating their neighborhood as their personal playground all because they're charming and adorable and their dad is a moderately wealthy restuarant owner and their mom is a local celebrity after flashing her tits on a public access morning chat show.
>it all started on one hot summer day at Wetty, Set, Go!>a place that usually makes Louise happy and relaxed but not today>because of THEM>because of THEM, she can't wear her old swimsuit anymore>because of THEM, Linda and Tina took her clothes shopping yesterday>because of THEM, She's been forced to buy a stupid fucking girly bikini>even if it's a cute one with kuchi kopi print she hates it for how exposed she feels>looking in the dressing room mirror Louise somehow felt less covered then if she was actually naked>she hated being a girl, like where's the upside here?>and now because of THEM she's wearing a dark and heavy hoodie at a water park on a hot summer's day with the sun beating down on her unable to go down any slides or float in the lazy river>she felt gross and sweaty and sad>she really has become Tina 2.0>this day just can't get any worse>Well look what we have here, a bundled up baby Belcher!>...fuck her life>up till now Louise didn't realize how much she's been dreading this eventuality>Logan has always been a pain in her ass but at least when she was 9 the playing field was level>she had the advantage of being a cute smart little girl and not a dumb gross teenager>but now?>go away Logan, I'm having a horrible day already and a crap sundae like you will probably make me barf into the kiddie pool>which wasn't that much of an exaggeration, the heat has been getting to her in this hoodie and Louise has been fighting back nausea all day>and seeing a wet glistening Logan who's clearly been enjoying himself is not helping her at all
>>150940371>well four ears I was enjoying a wet hot American summer with a lady friend>but then I saw a dumb bunny rabbit who didn't get the memo to shed her winter coat>what's the matter, feeling self-conscious because your dad's burgers made you fat?>Louise felt herself heat up some more, Logan's comment hitting a little too close to the truth>you better watch your mouth Logan or I'm gonna smother you with this hoodie>doubt it, you're still way too small to do any real damage>but really four ears, didn't your parents ever warn you about the dangers of a heat stroke?>Louise hates how the worst person she knows just made a good point>OH WOW thanks for the advice Logan! I would've never in a million years figure out that it's MY FUCKING HOODIE that's making me HOT>yeah I know, it's a good thing that I came by to tell you>Louise silently screams>but seriously take off the hoodie because you look like you're gonna pass out>Louise did feel woozy but still>NO! YOU'RE JUST GONNA HAVE TO DEAL WITH THE HOODIE LOGAN JUST LIKE I HAVE TO!
>>150940456>OK FINE but don't come crying to me when you become know as the girl who had to get airlifted out of Wetty, Set, Go!>why would I cry over something that would be amazing Logan?! I'll be immortalized in local waterpark history!>at this Logan snap his mouth shut and looks off from the shaded rest/picnic area to the borderfringe concession stands>he gets up and walks towards one to purchase two large water bottles and a single ice cream cone>louise glares at him the entire trek to and back but softens it slightly when she see him open one of the bottle and hand it to her>here>...is this part of growing up? Experiencing these small acts of kindness that define the human experience?>helping us remember that we're all just stranger is this big fishbow called li->logan upends the entire ice cold water bottle onto her, soaking her entire hoodie>that will cool you off so feel free to thank me>tense as a spring and feeling a rage that she hasn't felt since she was 9 Louise maintains direct eye contact with Logan as he takes a long lick of the ice cream cone>Louise is grateful for this, the thought of revenge against this blonde lanky teen has burned away the thoughts of self-pity>the how of it all is making her woozy but in a good way>Loggy? Babe, is you tummy feeling better?>and midlick, Louise saw the fear in Logan's eyes
>>150939844>Gene and Courtney wearing stocking of complimentary colors>Gene with cat ears and wearing a kitty cat face mask >Courtney with puppy dog ears and wearing a collar with a tag
>>150940878>walking into the scene is a tall leggy brunette who sounds suspiciously like Brooke Dillman>a leggy brunette Brooke Dillman soundalike who quite frankly had small boobs>she's eyeing the whole situation with the kind of scrutiny it deserves>for all intents and purposes it looks like a much older teen boy is bullying a much younger girl and that never looks good>S-Sidney ugh yeah I'm feeling my stomach>who is this kid you're talking to>well it's this is my old boss's daughter and I was just c-chattin' with her about old time>ok but why did you spill that whole water bottle on her?>well that wa->and Louise had a thought and acted on it>oh thank you Logan you've saved my life!!>you see Cynthia>Sidney>right so Logan, who I'm sure had first aid training in this kind of thing, actually noticed how close to heat exhaustion I was and quickly acted to cool me off in the quickest way possible>babe, is this true?>oh yeah every word and Louise can see the handsome idiot actually thinks she's helping him out here>HA!>wait handsome?>clearing her throat to make sure both Cindy and Logan are looking at her and especially making sure to maintain direct eye contact with him, Louise reaches down and pull off her hoodie>and with heavy drop, She releases THEM to Logan's widening eyes that can't look away as she rearranges her very cute kuchi kopi top>so thanks Logan>...uhm you're>Louise puts her hand behind her back and stretches>...welcome>ok yeah that's nice let's go babe say bye to your clearly underage boss's daughter>Logan seem reluctant to leave and Louise noticed it>so this is the upside of being a girl
Be honest: Do we REALLY need more than 20 seasons in total?
>>150928400Never
>>150941084>well hey Logan as long as you and Sidney are here we might as well get that ice cream cone you promised me if I survived.>you remember that right Logan? You promised a two scooped ice cream cone.>Double-and with that she grabs his hand and pull his arm to her chest>squish>dipped and Logan is already taking her to the ice cream stand>yeah babe can you buy me an ice cream cone too>I mean if he has the money for it after buying mine amirite sally? Nah I'm just kidding but also not really>oh this is fun
>>150940971Going all out, huh?
>>150941176I need 20+ season then an whole ass remake in HD with 2 extra movies.
>>150941622>Gene and Courtney as cheerleaders waving their pompoms around>Gene and Courtney in their respective onepieces >Gene and Courtney in slinky sequined hi-cut showgirl dresses >Gene and Courtney in that slingshot monokini Marshmallow wears>Gene and Courtney dressed up as Dexy's midnight runners wearing no underwearAll out? Not even close.
>>150940371>>150941084>>150941374We need a drawing of Louise and Logan going down a water slide in an innter tuber together.
>being invinted to Chloe's pool party is surprisingly not that surprising for Louise>when it comes to parties Chloe Barbash isn't as much of a snob like Tammy was with her brat mitzvah>Louise has a suspicion that, like with everything involving Chloe, she does it to rub it in everyone's faces that she can throw ragers at her fancy rich house that people actually like to go to>as oppose to pool parties involving large tubs in cold basement without snacks.>and for that Louise always made a point not to go to any of Chloe Barbash's pool parties>except for now because now Louise got something to rub in Chloe Barbash's pretty face!>hope you like high speed water chases Chloe because I'm gonna be outright motorboatin' you came Saturday!
>>150939844>>150940971Well now I want to see Louise in striped stockings with a bunny cottontail.
>>150942128>oh shit>is Chloe actually fun?>like a lot of fun?>Louise came to Chloe's front door in Tina's nicest old bikini expecting to hit Chloe with the milk trucks but instead Harley open the front door>and yeah she ogled when she saw the twins>but Louise let her, the happy chatterbox has always been nice to her so why not repay the kindness?>but then Harley said something weird, about Louise needing to change into her swimsuit>like harls come on, you think I'm wearing this top for support?>but Chloe being a control freak apparently expect the girls to wear approved swimsuits?>to better fit the vibe? >this almost gets Louise to walk out the house and go back home. >but then she saw it: the bikini top she actually wanted at the store.>with the Akkoro Kamui bottoms and the kuchi kopi top where kuchi's eyes is one each boob.>dammit Chloe, why do you have objectively good taste?
>>150942317>dammit louise, why are you having an objectively good time?>floating on an inner tube floatie in a big pool Louise swears is being fed by an underground spring nursing a virigin pina colada >well maybe not a whole virgin, like a faint under the top spike.>that's gonna be Louise's excuse for why she's enjoying herself.>you're gonna get lines.>louise spins lazily so she could stare at Chloe who herself was lying upside down on a sun lounger next to Abby, her head hanging off the lounger to maintain eye contact with Louise.>what?>Chloe plucked her at her bikini straps before reiterating that Louise is gonna get tanlines floating in the sun before tossing Louise a little bottle of sun lotion.>oh thanks Chloe but maybe I want tanline? You ever thought of that?>no you wouldn't, you'd look a lot better just tanned all over.>in fact, do you want to sit next to abby and me?>ummm>you can have some of these sticky sugar-booms if you do.>mmmSure Chloe, I'd love to!.
>>150942012Yes.Yes, we do!Especially when Louise is lying in Logan's lap
>>150942477leaning full back for maximum skin contact.
>>150942433>you know Louise, You and I are not so different. >huhwuzzatchloe>sure, you have a cleavage full of sticky sugar-booms-->man Gene was right, anything more than B is snack bowl>--but I think we share a common interest. >and what's that Chloe?>older boys.>oh of course.>>wait the fuck you just say to me Chloe.>hust saying kudos Louise for stealing a college girl's boyfriend Louise.>Ha HA HA! Chloe I swear I haven't the faintes->I think her name was Cindy Brookman or something? I didn't care to actually get her name but apparently you flashed her boyfriend then rode the water coaster together after you made him buy you ice cream.>...I-I didn't flash-flash him! I was wearing a hoodie and it was hot so so I take it off and yeah did I do in front of him but it's not like I jiggled my boobs at him!>no but I did hear you dripped ice cream on them.>...>hmph no judgment Louise, game recognizes game.>besides teasing older boys is fun, right Louise.>...>see, not so different. >I hope you had a good time here Louise, I'm having another pool party next week and maybe next time you could bring that college boy? I'm sure he'll like that.
>>150942317>>150942433If I had a nickel everytime Louise reluctantly find herself enjoying the company of a girl she thought she would never enjoy the company if I would have like handfuls of nickels because it's a reoccurring pattern.
>>150942942>the Louises on the fridge
>>150942562And possibly Logan Holding " his" Louise
>>150943247>hand on belly
>>150943262You know it.Louise placing her hand on his.The other arm is raised in a cheer while going down the slide.
>>150943262>>150943488>size difference between Logan and LouiseHell yeah
>>150942569>I'm having another pool party next week and maybe next time you could bring that college boy? I'm sure he'll like that.Aw man this reminds me of this great piece done by Mopgoblin that has Louise standing above a tied up Chloe surrounded by her friends being offered up to regular sized Rudy but reversed.
>>150942128>>150942317>>150942433>>150942569Chloe Barbash is such a vibe, just a real girly kind of girl.
>>150932225"large, pendulous breasts"
>>150944930>trust me, when you see my grandma you'll know my mom's apples didn't fall far from that tree.>Gene.>our grandma's apples are just lower.>Louise.>also they both have big boobs.>oh my god...
Linda fucks well endowed young men
>>150945149"And their sex drives are SKY HIGH"
>>150945345>oooohhhh>aaaaahhhh>oouaaghhhStahp it Gloria you're gonna make it twitch :(
Thought on young Gloria?
>>150945877imo she looks good.
>>150945893I like how you can tell how much weight she's gonna put on.
>>150945925Wedding dress is helping a lot, fun to imagine her getting fucked in it.
>>150928400Peak Bob's Burgers is seasons 2 through 4.Around season 5 is when the bit of edgy humor starts to get phased out to become a more family-friendly show, even the creator has acknowledged this change
>>150928400>>150946108I personally got a soft spot for season 7-9 myself.
You don't watch it to laugh out loud, you watch it because whats happening in the show is relatable and wholesome.
>>150946298I mean those early seasons were relatable and laugh out out loud funny with wholesome being only a byproduct instead of the focus.
>>150946298>>150946363It can be a whiplash to rewatch the series and forget how much more edgier Bob's Burgers was with The Belchers being that much more willing to clown on each other, like you could see why Bob was so tired all the goddamn time with these freaking kids.
>>150940140>>150940287He's such a little faggot and I love him
>>150946594God I know right? Just a fancy little boy who can't help but keep signaling exactly what he is to everyone who'll listen.
>>150946594>>150946823Whenever Gene has a gay thought he gives a little :3 smile like this.
>>150946594>>150946823>>150946994Just look at him, he's so fucking queer.
>can I just say one thing?>I think I have the best legs in the family and the smoothest bottom.
>>150945877>>150945893>>150945925Lady with the purple suit jacket a cute
>>150947380she is SCANDALIZED that someone would wear white to someone else's wedding.
>>150942192I want to say something about Horsegirl Tina so bad but I got this Playboy Bunny Tina that I just got to post.
>>150928400Bob's Burgers is one of those shows that gets progressively less funny over the seasons, so honestly if you don't find it entertaining now, you will find it even less so the further you go.
>>150947380I think that's Claudia Rinaldi aka Gloria's mom and Linda's grandma and the kids great-grandma in an unbroken line of sexiness.
>>150948504Look at dem tiddies.
>>150948516But check out Daniela Volpintesta, wowza.
>>150948596Daniela Volpintesta who is the mother of Lorraine Parcone neé Volpintesta AKA the woman who wore white to Gloria's wedding and her first cousin.
>>150948619Lorraine, who like Gloria, is a GILF.
>>150948596>>150948619>>150948633I got this crazy headcanon that Jocelyn is Tina's cousin from this side of the family.Why? Because John Roberts and because Jocelyn has been in the show since season 1.
>>150946108Well of course he's acknowledged it. It was a conscious decision carried out by the whole writing staff on his behalf.
>>150938977>but Logan is very uncomfortable with GeneMmmmm I bet he is, I bet Gene could make Logan feel all confused and . . . stiff.
Bump
>>150942128>>150942317I like the idea of Louise and Chloe having the exact same figure except Louise having bigger tits.>>150942433>>150942569and that Chloe is completely secure about that. too.
