Animated shows aren't just for kids! FOX's hit adult-animated series 'Bob's Burgers' is a testament to it. The wildly popular animated sitcom follows the life of Bob Belcher and his deep passion for burgers. His belief that he can bring about a big change in the burger world and the chaos that ensues forms the crux of the show. Bob fights slow business and trying times with his ever-supportive wife, Linda, by his side. Bob's constant competition is Jimmy Pesto, the owner of a pasta joint across the street. In spite of facing several challenges, including taunts from a health inspector, who also happens to be Linda's ex, Bob keeps his chin up and his grills even higher! 

This fall, catch the all-new Season 12 of 'Bob's Burgers', with a very talented cast, continuing to produce reliably warm, hilarious, and character-driven episodes, that don't fall into excessive disbeliefs.

Plot

Bob Belcher is a restaurateur and runs Bob's Burgers with his loving wife, Linda, and their three children. Bob believes in his burgers so much that he isn't afraid to put forth a variety of new, palatable creations. Linda is his strongest support, although she is usually distraught since the restaurant is constantly in danger of going out of business. Despite the many hurdles he faces, including constant irritants from an ex of Linda's, Bob tries his best to keep the grill sizzling.

Spoilers

During a panel discussion at San Diego Comic-Con, Loren Bouchard (the director) and Smith (the producer) spent time talking about the two-part season finale in which a “[s]ignificant amount of episode takes place in Tina’s erotic fiction in which she’s exploring a kind of Blade Runner dark fantasy.” The season finale ended up breaking one of the main rules of the show, featuring a part that's driven more by animation and (wordless) music than dialogue, although people were psyched about it. “If we do it this way, it’ll be the longest span of just music and visuals we’ve done to this point”.
