willnightshade Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 Haaaaaatttttteeeeeee the show. Don't find it funny. Love the voice actors from other things, but hate their characters in this show. The animation is just atrocious. But then there's this. Comments? Opinions? Snarky remarks?

crinklyace Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 Bob's Burgers has grown on me. If you've ever seen the cartoon Archer, the two guys are the same voice... so I love this crossover scene in Archer. Link to post Share on other sites
Cideg Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 My roommate watches the show, so I'll join him every now and then. I didn't care for it when I first started watching it, but the show has gotten significantly better with time. Sleater-Kinney, on the other hand, is one of my current musical obsessions. I enjoyed the video; it was silly and stupid and quite wonderful on the whole. Link to post Share on other sites
Næt. Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 I like Bob's Burgers. I am unfamiliar with this 'Sleater-Kinney'. Link to post Share on other sites
butterflydreams Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 I didn't like it at first, but some episodes have grown on me. I like Louise. Otherwise, I get tired of it fast. I'm an unashamed adult fan of Family Guy, South Park and American Dad. Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Sheka4 Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 I like Bob's Burgers, I find it to be more funnier than Family Guy or American Dad and it makes those jokes without belittling any of the female characters and insane violence or even sexual crudness that's present in other shows.

drjohnhwatson Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 I first took notice of H. Jon Benjamin in a sketch from the Dmitri Martin show where he played Watson in a Sherlock Holmes sketch (everyone shush) and I followed him to Bob's Burgers and later saw him at a panel at SDCC for Archer in 2012 (I don't watch Archer but I was waiting for something else or with a friend and I like him well enough so I stuck around for it??). I adore Bob's Burgers (and I especially love Kevin Kline's Fishoeder (spelling?) character), so I came in here ready to gush and then I saw that this thread was a bashing thread so...I'll...just...let myself out again, haha. .

zoidberger Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 Honestly, I love Bob's Burgers. It's simple, but the characters are weird and multidimensional. It feels like one of the most real families I've seen on television. Louise is my favourite. The whole family dynamic is just fun to me without resulting to gross or completely idiotic humour (most of the time). I also watched a review recently on how Tina's character is actually a positive girl figure for once. She is allowed to have a sexuality and be interested in boys, and swoons to the extent that she looks silly a lot of time (I think a fairly universal thing for most people).

CosineTheCat Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 When I first watch the show I thought it was terrible, but after seeing it on Archer I though, I should try to watch it. I then watched it and realized that it's quite funny without being overly sexualized, insulting, or belittling. I really enjoy it now. Link to post Share on other sites
Alan Degas Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 I love it. It has a sort of innocent and profound, but still wonderfully snarky and sarcastic, humour to it that reminds me of Calvin and Hobbes. My partner friggin hates the show. I can't watch it if he's home or he'll get grumpy just listening to it. I have a suspicion it's because he didn't grow up in a large family like I did. A lot of the Belcher charm comes from relating to the family dynamic and memories of my own childhood and teen years. Link to post Share on other sites
SilentComplexity Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 Never heard of this "Bob's Burgers" (since I do not watch television). I have heard of Sleater-Kinney (which is also the name of a street, in Olympia, WA). Link to post Share on other sites
a-happyhippie Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 I hated the show at first but my brother made me watch it and it grew on me. It's one of my favorite shows now. c: Link to post Share on other sites
Purnkin Spurce Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 I love Bob's burgers. Some of my friends hate it but for some reason I can help but laugh at the ridiculousness of it. I love how Tina is voised by a guy, I love how they have no chins and really love how crazy they are. Link to post Share on other sites

Nevyn Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 I like the show. It does grow on you after a few episodes. Link to post Share on other sites
ozzythefabulous Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 I love the show the more you watch it the better it becomes plus H. Jon Benjamin is amazing :D Link to post Share on other sites
Næt. Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 I like Bob's Burgers. I am unfamiliar with this 'Sleater-Kinney'. Having familiarised myself with 'Sleater-Kinney', I would like to amend my statement thus: I like Bob's Burgers. Sleater-Kinney are okay. Link to post Share on other sites
Atheno Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 I haven't seen every episode, but I've watched a fair amount of Bob's Burgers and it's one of my favorite shows, its quirkiness appeals to me. But there are other shows that have been popular that I don't much care for, so to each one's own. I also really like Home Movies, an earlier show co-created by Loren Bouchard (Bob's Burgers creator) and Brendon Small, with Jon Benjamin as the Coach McGuirk. It's kind of quirky like Bob's Burgers, though not identical. Link to post Share on other sites
FreyLokey Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 Haaaaaatttttteeeeeee the show. Don't find it funny. Love the voice actors from other things, but hate their characters in this show. The animation is just atrocious. But then there's this. Comments? Opinions? Snarky remarks? Finally someone else who finds the animation atrocious. It's the main reason I can't watch it. Bob's Burgers has grown on me. If you've ever seen the cartoon Archer, the two guys are the same voice... so I love this crossover scene in Archer. That episode made me really wish Bob's was animated in the same style as Archer and I could actually give that show a chance Link to post Share on other sites
zoidberger Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 Interestingly, if it was animated in Archer fashion, I wouldn't be able to watch it. More realistic animation really bugs me for some reason. It's a large reason as to why I can't stand anything anime-style. Link to post Share on other sites
Sleepy Skeleton Posted March 6, 2015 Share Posted March 6, 2015 I love Bob's Burgers! I like how its humor isn't purely about being as offensive as possible. It's one of the few shows that I like all of the main characters, too. Gene and Louise are my favorite. Andy and Ollie are hilarious, too. Yeah, the animation is a little gross but I find it watchable I also looove H. Jon Benjamin's voice. My brother got me into Archer. I didn't like it at first, but it grew on me. Archer is the show animated show that I've ever seen my anti-fun dad watch. That show gave me a ton of new insults to use. :lol: Link to post Share on other sites

More realistic animation really bugs me for some reason. It's a large reason as to why I can't stand anything anime-style. Me too. I do like Archer but I ignored it for the longest time simply because I was judging it from the animation. I'm glad I gave it a shot though. It is pretty funny. I've tried being into anime but I can't get into it for the same reason. Some of the more cutesy stuff I like to a certain degree but that's about it. Link to post Share on other sites
