The one hundred sixth TV show: #871 Bob's Burgers

"How have you not written up Bob's Burgers, we watch it every week?" Because I hadn't thought about it, to be honest. It's an easy thing to fix though, going through some classic episodes on a Sunday morning.

The show is both quite grounded with the normal problems that (mostly) affect families - no celebrities, no trips into space or anything else like that. You instead get weirdly heightened and bizarre storylines that feel quite grounded, anchored by some excellent voice acting and weird characters. Even despite that, the show keeps its heart with a family that cares for each other and characters that continue to help each other. It always feels on and somehow keeps at the same level for a long time and I'm more wondering where else they can go with it.
