    FUNNY AS HELL
  • One of the worst animated shows EVER made.

    1.0
    This is by far one of the most disgusting and horrible shows I have ever seen, and it looked horrible enough by just watching the previews of coming attractions.



    Where do I begin? The jokes are painfully unfunny, the characters and animation is hideous looking, and the voice acting is beyond irritating.



    Worse yet, it doesn't make a lick of sense. It acts like it's trying to be funny, but it fails pathetically.



    Animation Domination is bad enough already with the Simpsons past their prime, Family Guy and the Cleveland Show. But THIS one takes the cake for being a complete waste.



    At LEAST the others have SOME redeemable factors to them. THIS one has none whatsoever.



    Disgusting...

    i really like this show its really funny when i saw the preview for this i was a bit sceptical probably because of the animation but i gave it a shot since i heard it was really good and i enjoyed it i found it really funny even though this show is not as funny as the simpsons family guy or american dad but i still really like it i don't think i've seen a bad episode of this yet so yeah its really enjoyable
  • One of the best Animation Domination shows.

    I think I understand why some people don't like this show because of the first episode, isn't it? I think first episode was terrible but I gave this show another another change. Second and third episode were better than this episode but they weren't very great much. I was gonna this show 6/10 but after watching more episode, this show got better for me. Season 1 was good but It's worst season of Bob's Burgers. I watched all season 2 episodes and season 2 was better than season 1. Season 3 is getting better than season 1 now. This show is one of the best shows ever. This show is about Bob Belcher's burger restaurant and his family. I think that's a great idea. This show is more diffirent than The Simpsons, American Dad and Family Guy. I like all main characters of this show but in the pilot, they were annoying. Louise and Gene are the best characters in this show because they are so funnier than others. Bob is the boss of his restaurant and he is Linda's husband and Gene, Louise and Tina's father. He enjoys working more than other family members and he likes talking with foods. Bob is better father than other fathers because he isn't jerk, dumb or drunk. That's why I like him. Linda is Bob's wife and he always wants to try new things. I like her too. Her voice is so funny for me, her "alright" scenes is funny and She sings good. I think she is a great wife and mother. I like Bob and Linda's relationships. Gene is the only son of this family and he is so dumb. He wears burger costume and he plays his keyboard. I like him but his microphone is so annoying. Louise is the youngest kid in Belchers. She is so aggressive and dominates Tina and Gene. She always wears her pink hat with rabbit ears. She is one of the funniest characters in this show but she sometimes becomes a jerk. Tina is the oldest kid in the family and she is smarter than Louise and Gene. She falls in love with Jimmy Jr or else and she always make "aaaaaaaaa" noises. I think she is funny too but not funny as Gene and Louise. Also she is the only girl that she loves zombies so much. I think she is one of the weirdest characters in this show. The animation of this show is good but not the best. Some of the storylines are good but not perfect. The humor of this show is great. I like all intros of this show. Also this show is definetly better than "The Cleveland Show". You should give this show a change but don't watch the first episode becuase It's really awful. 9/10
  • Most annoying animated show since Family Guy

    3.0
    This show annoys the piss out of me. I HAD to stop it after episode 3 of season one. I started watching because of that Archer cross-over, I naturally assumed that this show had to be just as brilliant to be referenced. Wow was I wrong.



    The wife and eldest daughter are voiced by men, both of whom seem to be doing the most annoying voices they possibly can (which is honestly mildly sexist. I mean the show has three female characters and only ONE of them is voiced by a girl, and she's EXTREMELY annoying, and the rest are men being as annoying and naggy as they can?), and the son is basically what I would expect a middle-school aged Family Guy fan to act like (I get they're your audience, but you shouldn't write one of the annoying little fucks in to your show).



    Even H. Jon Benjamin's smooth sarcastic tones can't save would-be-Homer Bob from coming off as boring... Especially when he seems to be going through the exact same motions as every other animation father: Kids messing up his life, annoyed that his wife's family is coming to visit, having 'The Shining" flashback that I have seriously seen in EVERY other Animated Sitcom ever (Let's do the list: Simpsons, check, Family Guy, check, South Park, check).



    So far the shows main jokes seem to have been about fart noises, cow shit, and pooping yourself, which clearly just shows a fine maturity about the whole affair.



    Don't get me wrong, I'm a long time South Park fan, so I'm not offended by such humor, but humor like that belongs in the background of deep plot based comedy which this series never really hits. That said: at least it tries, unlike Family Guy, and I've even heard it gets better in the second season, but with characters this chronically annoying I'll certainly never find out.



    Derivative annoying garbage designed for chronically boring and unfunny people.

    Archer brought me here, but I can't help but feel it only did so because it wanted me to come running back into it's arms all the more aware of what a gem it is.
  • Not Even Remotely Funny.

    1.0
    This is probably the worst show on FOX on Sundays. The animation is pretty bad, the voices are annoying, the little girl sounds like a boy (well they all kind of do), and the jokes aren't funny at all. One episode they were laughing at a piece of cow crap; I mean it doesn't get much more pathetic than that. A six year old probably wouldn't find that funny. I seriously hope that this show gets cancelled soon, I think that the current Family Guy episodes are funnier than this, and the aren't all that funny. 1/10
  • Bob's Burgers Rules!

    Ths a show for the ppl out there that aren't looking for setup/punchline setup/punchline setup/punchline type show. this show has depth and personalities that are real, funny and likable. If you are like me and liked 'Dr. Katz' or 'Home Movies' or 'King of the Hill' (all of which i actually LOVED) then you will love Bob's Burgers as much as the rest of us who don't need a fart joke every 3 seconds. And to the ppl that say this show isn't funny, YOU are the reason that 'Two and a Half Men' is still on there air whether u know it or not!

    The characters look like bowling pins (not funny ones). The dialogues and situations are funny)This show makes me wonder how abominations like this gets on the air!!
  • The worst show to ever air on FOX

    1.0
    This show seemed okay and man was it worse than I expected. The animation is a complete joke and the voice cast was terrible. I don't know the name of one of the daughters and I don't care BUT the daughter had a little boy voice and this show just wasn't funny at all, it was totally boring, the jokes are lame, and I couldn't stand this show at all. The writers of "Bob's Burgers" don't seem to take their time to make a good animation in this show. I can't believe FOX would air this piece of junk on FOX. I wouldn't be surprised if this show only lasted one season. I gave the first episode a chance and after from what I saw from the first episode of "Bob's Burgers", I am never watching this show ever again. I don't recommend this show to anybody. There's better shows that air than this. If you don't like this show then change the channel to something better. 1/10
  • Better than 99% of the shows on TV

    10
    There's nothing I don't love about this show. All of the characters are fantastic and quirky, the plots are believable (mostly) and relatable, and the humor is original and rich unlike the kinds of jokes we're bombarded with on shows like Family Guy. It seems that this show just gets funnier with each season. I honestly have no idea why some people hate this show. I'd recommend this show to everyone, but especially to those who are tired of fart jokes and poor slapstick comedy.
  • Finally, a cartoon on Fox to look forward to every week!

    10
    I can see why a majority of people don't like Bob's Burgers, because quite frankly they're the same people that can't stem away from the style of humor ala Family Guy. To me, the show is enjoyable mainly because of the great deal of characters and how they interact. The Belchers are such a quirky family, yet every member is lovable in their own way. Also, the thing about the humor is that everything seems to happen really fast, and many of the laugh out loud moments are actually kind of monotone, so you have to know the context. Granted, there are quite a few fart jokes and the like in Bob's Burgers, but to be quite honest, unlike many other shows, where it's normally plain repulsive, here it's basically just a part of the character, especially in the case of Gene being he's a 12 year old boy. Tina and Louise are also hilarious.

    I do have to say, you gotta have the palate for this distinct style of humor, but considering I do, I really don't have any complaints! I'm glad it got picked up for a fourth season!
  • Ehhhh

    3.0
    I absolutely hated the first episode of this show. I've only seen the first few episodes and the last few episodes, but I have NOT liked what I've seen. I don't see Bob as a lovable character like Peter, Homer, Cleveland, and Stan. There have been a couple of chuckles in the last few episodes but I guess I just don't dig this show.
  • Undigestible

    1.0
    Fox Network has had a bad habit of killing of what works in terms of animated shows (King Of The Hill, Futurama) instead catering to the tastes of the unsophisticated. Bob's Burgers happens to be a show that doesn't work.



    It has been disclosed that Bob's Burgers was created by Loren Bouchard, the creator of TV's odious cartoon, Home Movies, which should give you an inkling of just how HORRID this show is.



    Many people will find this entertaining, the very same people who find entertainment in those SAW movies. This is the WORST animated show ever foisted upon the Fox Network's viewers, it makes that mercifully cancelled show Allen Gregory seem highbrow by comparison.



    The nation's going to Hell in a handbasket, Bob's Burgers is indisputable proof of that.
  • Bob's Burgers are burnt.

    6.5
    Bob's Burgers. Who created this again? Loren Bouchard? the co-creator of Home Movies, a funny and clever masterpiece. That's not what Bob Burger's is. The show really isn't funny, the episodes aren't really clever, and some of the plots are dull. If Fox cancelled a great show like Futurama there is no way this show will last on the air. However, Bob Burger's is decent and it's much better than the other show fox is currently airing, the freaking Cleveland Show disgrace. I must admit, the beginning episodes were okay, I wish they could be better but...You know...It's a decent show, atleast the characters are good.
  • A List of Things I Love about Bob's Burgers

    9.5
    Things that I Love about this show:

    -the Opening Couch Gags - changes every episode (The Exterminators and the Shop that always goes under next to their burger place.)

    - Burger of the Day Chalk Board (New Bacon-ings, The Child Molester -it comes with a side order of candy, Olive and Let Die Burger, Chorizo Your Own Adventure Burger)

    -The Voices - I really like Tina (Dan Mintz) - I like it when Louise shouts: "Murderer!"

    -Awesome Humor

    - ("Rich people are better at Halloween and Skin Care" - Gene" )

    - Tina mentions that her crotch is itchy.

    - Pattycake Musical -(warning: Pattycake is addicting)

    -Even the Credits are cool, it changes based on the episode. (8-Bit Closing Credits in that episode where Bob gets addicted to the videogame called "Burgertime"



    Can't find anything to dislike except that Health Inspector character.



    I am ready for a cancellation, I'm an Arrested Development fan, nothing can hurt me, i'm already dead on the inside.

    I am impressed with your writers..love the customer requests at Bobs (microwaved ice cream/calory count) mainly because I used to wait tables. It's a good show and I want to thank you all for what you do.

  • Final thoughts on Bob's Burgers: It just doesn't work at all (updated)

    1.5
    I really did give Bob's Burgers plenty of shots to see if it got better, and it failed to do so. The show is about a man named Bob and his family, Linda, Tina, Gene, and Louise, running a burger joint. This show was apparently trying to fill in the void of King of the Hill, but failed miserably. I did not like the humor at all in this show at all. I think they were going for dry humor, but it fails a lot, and Gene would always do fart jokes, and while it got a laugh out of me, it just doesn't work. I really don't like the kids in this show. Louise is very annoying and not funny at all. Gene is just stupid and not in the funny way at all, and constantly uses a megaphone for robotic voices or farts, and it got on my nerves really fast, and the show focused a lot of attention on him thinking he is funny. Tina is just plain weird and does not do anything in this show aside from telling her family she is sick. Linda is tolerable, but an airhead who barely got any laughs from me. Bob did provide me with some laughs here and there, but not enough to sustain the show. The artwork and animation though is decent and has the feeling of the Home Movies show done by this shows creator. The plots are OK, and decent, but nothing too special like Bob having a dilemma with killing a cow was rather boring, and predictable. I was really saddened to see how Loren Bouchard, co-creator of Home Movies, and executive producer, Jim Dauterive, writer of King of the Hill, created this show and this is not their best work. In the end for me this show just doesn't do it at all. The characters are annoying, the stories range from decent to lazy and bland, and the humor is barely there. I don't think this show deserves another season at all, and even if it did get one there needs to be some serious work on it to make it watchable again. Get it together Loren Bouchard you can do better than this, but at least this show is funnier than The Cleveland Show.
  • Funny, but not too funny

    6.5
    When I first saw Bob's Burgers, i liked the characters, and I liked the jokes. I chuckled at a few, but I didn't have any "laugh out loud" moments. I enjoyed the plot lines for the most part, although I feel like some loose ends are dropped. I felt as though the voice of Tina, the daughter, as a boy's removed the character from me. I felt like someone was dubbing the voice, and it took away from the character. Overall, there were some good moments in this show, but it's not by any means a 10.
  • It kind of sucks

    5.0
    It's not a horrible show but it's not great. I watched the entire first season and part of the second. I gave up on it since I really didn't find myself enjoying the characters. It beats many shows out there. And seeing that I actually watched a full season is a good thing. Otherwise I would have stopped at the first episode. In saying all this I have no interest in watching this anymore. Kill it with fire.
  • What's With Bunny Girl?

    5.0
    Bob's Burgers is one of those irritating shows on FOX in which most of the episodes are terrible, then end up throwing a curve ball of a great episode (such as the food truck one). Too bad that those great ones are few and far between. What is a miracle is that Bob's Burgers has lasted as long as it has, which is two seasons as of Spring 2012. I'll never, for the life of me, understand why Louise has to wear those pink rabbit ears throughout every second of each episode...it was more easily understood when Moth Man (aka Arthur, the accountant) wore bunny ears as a superhero on the long-cancelled "The Tick" series; but Louise looks like an utter freak. If I never see another "Bob's Burgers" episode on FOX, I won't have missed much.
  • So what if it looks like being animated by 6 year olds.

    10
    Ryan Cooney is a sad excuse of a cartoon. The animation is not terrible. I dont know about Adventure Time but I do know a Family Guy's dog fan arguing about it. A good animated show needs good animation and well developed likable charaters, meh. Sure Family Guy got better quality in animation but if your talking about depth and soul, do you even find anything? Whats the use of quality animation if there's no quality entertainment? Now Bob's Burger looks like 90's Simpsons and maybe someday it's animation will improve we'll just have to wait and enjoy this show.

    We all know it's no American dad or family guy but its funny I like this show and the characters arnt bad it's very under rated and it shouldn't be
  • Please just give it a chance.

    7.5
    Alright, so this isn't the best show on television, but let's face it. It's better than most of the stuff on Fox right now. Allen Gregory? Please. The Cleveland Show? You've got to be kidding me. Napoleon Dynamite? That show was one of the biggest dissapointments in my LIFE. The Simpsons was good a while ago, but recently it's been terrible. (with a few exceptions). Don't get me wrong, Family Guy and American Dad are hilarious, though. Anyway, back to Bob's Burgers.

    Yes, the animation is HORRIBLE, and the voice acting isn't great, but why do you care about things as little as that? The jokes are very, very funny, if you're smart enough to understand them. And the show has improved since it got bumped up to TV-14. The writers can make better jokes with a higher rating. But what i'm really trying to say is, let it try again. Remember how horrible American Dad was in it's first season, and now, (in my opinion) it's better then recent Family Guy! Just let it have another go, and maybe it will be better. Honestly though, i like this show even without the much needed improvements.

    I Hate this show SO MUCH! How can the awsome voice of Archer, accept this show. Fire your agent Benjamin!! I chuckled once when Bob told his kids to stop shaking the ladder he was standing on at the time....thats it. This show is so unoriginal(even the main characters name.Bob?Really) and so unfunny. The kids are annoying and so is Bobs man-wife. I feel like the voice actors are trying way too hard and I pray this waste of 30mins gets the boot.
  • 100% grade- A Hilarity!

    10
    Funny as hell. I would give it an abysmal if it turned out as bad as the promos made it look, but it is terrific. It follows Bob, his wife, Linda, his son, Gene, his awkward teenage daughter, Tina, and his young, very smart, cruel, 9-year-old daughter, Louise. They have to compete against his rival, Jimmy Pesto, who also has a restaurant, that's a pizzeria. Bob is played by the incredibly talented H. Jon Benjamin (Archer). When they aren't cooking burgers, he's dealing with his incredibly rich, strange landlord Mr. Fishodor. He also owns an amusement park, and most of the buildings in town. No matter how you look at it, this is a great show for hopefully many years to come.
  • Who animated this show 6 year olds?

    2.5
    This is a sad excuse of a cartoon. The animation is terrible. It's just as bad as Adventure Time. The charaters have no depth or soul. There not likeable in the least. A good animated show needs good animation and well developed likable charaters. This show lacks both. Look at King of the Hill & Family Guy. There animation is good and well developed. You would want to hang out with the Hills or the Griffins. I'd rather go on a picnic with Brian the dog and Luanne Platter than have a barbecue with Bob. This show is lame and a piece of trash.
  • Late to the game (Better late than never)

    9.0
    I just watched the first episode...Absolutely loved it...I'm not one to laugh out loud while watching TV, but I woke my girl up from her nap from laughing too loud..

    I also just finished watching the first episode of Allen Gregory. That one wasn't for me...I get the edgy humor, but I couldn't find one character in that show that was actually likeable. I deal with enough self centered A-holes in my everyday life so I'm not really jazzed about flipping on the tube to see more of them in animated form. Back to Bob tho..

    The animation is a bit crude, but what the hell...if I wanted Disney (I do not), then I'd watch Disney...the direction is spot on...writing is quick, smart and most importantly, very very funny without being forced, pretentious or too ironic.

    I laughed like I used to in the Simpsons heydey....Even Family Guy is starting to lose steam these days, still love it tho...(I think Seth is waaaaay too stretched out)

    I`m thinking Bob just might be my new thing.
  • Excellent show!

    9.5
    This show has the most unique sense of humor I've seen in shows recently. It excels in humor, character development and good story lines. Every time I watch this show I end up laughing my head off. I don't get why a lot of people dislike this show, probably because most of them are Family Guy fans, a show that comes on the same network, around the time Bobs Burgers comes on, and a lot of the jokes on this show you have to think about to really get, unlike Family Guy where there horrible jokes just come to you. I will admit though Family Guy has made me laugh before, I just don't really like the show all that much and I think the characters and writing could use some work.



    Back to Bob's Burgers. I highly recommend this show and I cannot wait for the second season, and hopefully more seasons to come. If you do watch it, make sure to watch carefully and don't expect something bad, cause this show is a hit.
  • An alright show.

    7.0

    I thought this show was alright. Not the best on FOX, but I think it's fair. This show started off slow (the first episode wasn't was good), but then it improves in every episode. The best episode of this show so far was Art Crawl. I thought it was hilarious. The characters and voices are ok. I do like the voice performance of H. Jon Benjamin, Kristen Schaal, and Larry Murphy. I wonder why two guys voices Linda and Tina. My favorite characters are Bob and Gene (although he's sometimes annoying). The other family member are alright. Louise used to annoy the living hell outta of me in the first few episodes (especially in Scared Cow where she calls Bob a murderer), but her role improves a lot in Art Crawl (which is the reason why it is the best episode of the show) and a few more episodes. My favorite recurring character is Teddy. Overall, the show is good, although it started out ok.




    My ratings:




    When the show started: 5/10




    After first three episodes: 6/10




    After Art Crawl: 7/10
