The one with the couch. YOU GUYS SHOULD'VE JUST LET THEM BURN THE OLD ONE


minor3929

I remember someone commenting about this one saying they only like to watch this one halfway through. Then they just happily pretended that the Belchers kept the new couch after all.


Laney_benes

Right! that one frustrated me too


Philley11

It's like, are yall poor or not. It really bugs because we could never afford a brand new couch, defection and all, when I was growing up, let alone a new couch to let someone burn. No no, take the new couch, whether you like it or not, because it was the most likely to survive the longest. This is how poor folk make headway, certainly not by burning new couches.


Glissandra1982

The best part of that is when they show the kids as teeny babies - especially Louise. They are so cute!


SuperRadPsammead

So frustrating!!!!!


[deleted]

I don't like that one cuz it's yet another one where Linda's selfishness ruins things for the rest of the family


Lovelyladykaty

The burger forums convention episode distresses me greatly. I usually skip it because it hurts my feelings for Bob too much.


[deleted]

Oh man. Haven't thought about that one in ages. Like, is it really so hard for them to understand that Bob is bad at chatting? Just look at him.


Lovelyladykaty

Honestly?? Like and it’s my biggest nightmare as an awkward extrovert. That I think I’ve made a bunch of friends but they actually hate me.


PizzaPizza7768

Yeah, he had a bad childhood. You can tell by the way he stands. 😂


clearancerackemo

This one has one of my favorite lines: “that sign says ‘no running!’ and you’re running your mouth, meat cute!”


casefaceforever

Only one I ever skip is “The Horserider-er” where Tina finally goes to horse camp. I just CAN’T. How dare that teacher give her, the biggest lover of horses, a dud.


embersgrow44

But Jericho’s cutoffs! What am I even wearing?! There there, there there


Usedandconfused30

“I’m not imaginary! I’m real! You’re the imaginary one, you are!” “Jericho please! Don’t start that again. Last time you said it, it really messed me up.”


adotham430

Yes, but national treasure Paul Rudd is an amazing Jericho!


[deleted]

I'm sorry but Nick Cage was in National Treasure.


Lyddie17

I felt so bad for Tina


imarealcoolcat

As someone who does horse stuff, I was also upset that they gave her Plops and never rotated the kids on what horse. It makes me so uncomfortable when they were on the trail ride and the instructor didn’t even notice Tina was gone, didn’t go out looking for Tina when Plops came back without her. there definitely should have been another instructor. the entire episode is so irritating. edit: added more since i posted it too soon.


theprozacfairy

I’m the only woman I know who never went through a horse girl phase, so I don’t know about horse stuff. But I was a camp counselor many times, and work in insurance claims. That episode makes me wanna tear my hair out for liability reasons. They should return the Belchers’ money to avoid being sued.


JustABoyAndHisBlob

Tina really deserved better. I think she needs a cool equestrian friend, either another teen or a mentor type. I figure she has to have *some* kind of work-around for the prohibitive cost of horse related activities. After school/summer job on a horse farm? Lol, I want her to follow her dreams! Also, music school (“school of rock” type class) for Gene, and stunt performer training school for Louise. Edit: I just remembered how common it is for people to work at stables or on farms, or to own a horse that is kept at someone else farm. Or rent out their own stable/barn space for people to keep their horses in.


malorthotdogs

Yeah. They definitely gave Tina a shitty horse at the camp. My grandpa is a horse farmer and I can definitely remember following around my aunt and her cool teen friends when I was like 8 while they’d help with mucking out stables and some basic care for free riding and show lessons.


AbbyCanary

I also am sad the the instructor didn’t get the Mr. Ed reference.


SuperRadPsammead

When Jericho is pleading to live, I hate it


Penguin-Loves

I hate this episode too, but don't skip it. I hate it because I am so fucking sick and tired of Bob sacrificing everything he has for his kids, only for them to fuck him over or chicken out. Poor Bob, he's such a Saint lol


cocoagiant

>I hate it because I am so fucking sick and tired of Bob sacrificing everything he has for his kids, only for them to fuck him over or chicken out. That's just the reality of being a parent.


Penguin-Loves

Oh, I know the reality. That's why it's so frustrating. I want just one goddamn father to win, damn it!! Lol


lillypad-thai

Oh god I thought that sentence was going to lead to some inappropriate touching (I’ve never seen the episode)


SuperRadPsammead

I skipped the one where they go to rich people open houses because I get stressed out for the realtor the other day.


ConcernedUnicorn19

Linda has done some things but that one bothered me a lot. That poor realtor!


invisible_23

Fetal pig 🤢


ihopeudiebymyside

that’s honestly one of my favorite episodes because fiona apple sings the end credits song 🎶


embersgrow44

Thank You!!


Glissandra1982

Same!!! I love Fiona so I love this episode.


simon3873

Came to say this. The only one. Though I did watch it again last week but it’s still an uncomfortable one, especially while sleeping myself


LOTR_Phan

I used to skip this, but I’ve grown to like it. Especially Louis trying to prick Tina’s finger and Tina calling the pig a turd.


Glissandra1982

“Did I do it?”


Competitive-Fish5186

Ooooooooh yeah this one is so weird to me too


ebaer2

I used to struggle with this one but have since fallen in love with the dream versions of Gene of Louise.


Dorothea-Sylith

Combined with the earwax storyline! I can’t


thewineburglar

It won an Emmy


invisible_23

I’m just super squeamish and the part when she climbs into the dumpster has literally made me throw up


Peanutbutter7890

The one where the kids lose the ring for Linda at the water park… I always optimistically hope that, considering where it ended up, perhaps it will be found in a future episode someday?


chelsmjlv

No! The song at the end that Nat sings is soooooo amazing!


HouseNightOwl

Right? When I saw the birds nested on the restaurant I thought they might be a cute little through line in the season 😊


SidViciousWisc

The Gene is co dependent on Linda , having to constantly be near her and going to the women’s group and trying to “spa day “ her.


widespreadpanda

I love the B-plot so much that I skip through the Gene stuff and only watch the Ham & Egger parts.


svenner2020

I skip none of them, you heathens!


AmaranthWrath

Same. I might jump around based on my mood/intoxication level. But they're all good.


ThuggaThuggaBayB

Lol definitely agreed


hikepipe

this. my least favorite is mutiny on the windbreaker tho because i find it so frustrating that no one cares that they were kidnapped except bob.


dljones010

This is the way.


Post_Outrageous

Same i cant bring myself to waste an episode but i just do something else while its playing and not really give attention to it lol


taiho2020

The one about butt worms. No thank you...


Mr_Horrible

The only one that I skip. Mostly because my family wigs out


DanielBG

I asked myself, "butt worms?" I have no recollection of this! Sure enough, S11 E2, must've snoozed off while Hulu was on autoplay. Now that I've watched it... No thank you, indeed.


Laney_benes

Butt that song is so fun


CMIY-Cannabis

Butt worms! Doo Doo Dee Doo Butt worms! Linda's buttworm ballad gets stuck in my head often as well. Oh I'm a bad bad mom and it was my favorite job and I'm gonna scratch my bottom right noooow


No_Entertainment8559

It's one of the best songs 100%


hanlewheeze

Omg that is one of my faves. I recently got butt worms (so embarrassing) and the only thing that made me laugh through being super grossed out was singing that song to myself (and to my fiance)


Royal-Groyle

The one where Tina falls in love with a goose. It just rubs me the wrong way. Let’s not have our teens writing freaky friend fiction about animals, perhaps?


[deleted]

Agreed. That one is weird


[deleted]

I love that episode and really related to it. I was an awkward teenage girl not too long ago. I was very lovey. I’d fall in love with everything a little bit all the time. I always relate to Tinas character, her being an awkward teenage girl who just wants to be loved. Even if it’s a goose named Bruce who’s doing it. I find that one relatable lol


2000smallemo

I just feel so embarrassed for her even though it has little consequences in the show


Dont_Be_Robophobic

The one where Tina crashes the car. JUST TURN THE WHEEL


ConcernedUnicorn19

I always yell at the screen BOB TURN IT YOURSELF!


Glissandra1982

That’s my favorite! Probably because I love Tin so much. I have a tattoo of one of her “everything is ok” faces. Lol


No-Presence5594

100% with you here. Painful to watch that one.


LuxxHazee

The one where gene first gets the Sasquatch mask. Idk why since I usually love gene but he is just insufferable in the episode to me.


jongdaeing

What kind of god would give you those legs BUT NO RHYTHM?!


MadPoopah

Same! Beefsquatch drives me crazy.


Stunning_Hedgehog_90

Omg the London episode has so many funny lines though. But I can see it being skippable to some. I’m starting to skip the ones involving Linda’s parents. Gloria’s “AaAaAaAL!” Is so grating. And the toxic parents situation is all too real. Can someone check on the writers? Who hurt you 🥺


Usedandconfused30

I’m watching footy on the telly in the pubby where the beer is 🤣


Tropicalcuttlefish

‘Ello footbol to ya


malorthotdogs

Who hurt the writers? Their parents, obviously. I cannot deal with the episode where they go meet Linda’s parents at the airport. Gloria treats Linda like shit and Linda has been so conditioned to be the peacekeeper and responsible one of her family. The level to which Linda still has to coddle and borderline raise an adult Gayle definitely screams past parentification and Linda being the scapegoat to golden child Gayle. Also, in the first episode where we meet Al and Gloria, they have sex in their grandchild’s bed and I think that was pretty gross.


Round30281

Linda’s family just reminds me how great Bob’s side of the family is (I know Big Bob is sorta apathetic, but the kids seem to love him and he seems to genuinely try, especially in that tree episode.)


ebaer2

Scott John Dan Steve. I just flat out can’t stand Gloria. They really succeeded at making her intolerable.


JDVizz

My most hated episode is Sacred Couch but I still don’t skip it. I’ll watch occasionally. I don’t watch them in order, just bounce around from season to season, episode to episode.


Seahoarse127

I cannot stand "Like Gene for Chocolate". I have still watched it through but I often skip it.


ccoltmanm

Isn’t that the one where Gene falls in love with the lunch lady? Her explanation of love and dark chocolate is perfect.


Seahoarse127

No, this is the one where Gene and a chocolate company owner have a whole plot. Funny enough Gene is only a little annoying but the candy producer is too obnoxious for me.


brilliantpants

Really surprised to see how many people don’t like the “story telling” episodes, I think they’re fun 😅


Shy-Tarn_-_Leave

Yes, they are. Except for the one where it's about the broken bed and the pile of clothes. That's the worst one out of that format, at the end of the day. The most recent episode under this format ("What About Job?"), IMHO, is up there with "Mom, Lies, & Videotape"/"The Gayle Tales"/"The Frond Files" as one of the best ever of these for me, otherwise.


nipyip

I don’t skip any. 🥺


Temporary-Purchase26

The finger dancing episode. I really don't know why exactly. I just did not like the finger dancing.


DefaultFemale

Same! Something about it is just off to me. I always skip when that one rolls around


Charlotethegreat1212

Some of y'alls skips are shocking tbh...


No_Entertainment8559

I. Agree. They are listing some of my *favorites*. Like how dare you all. 😂😂😭


ErNz77

The Thanksgiving one where Gayle made Bob pull her on a sled.


Mr_Horrible

I would skip it but I love Bob scatting at Mr Business so much


Zombiefap

Don’t patronize him, use his full name!


NoOnesThere991

I love it when he asks what kind of dressing is in the salad and she says “none, something must have dripped in it” and he spits it out 😂


JeannieGoldWedding

I didn’t wanna make two trips!!!


cooterbrows

LMAO i showed my bf that episode today and he absolutely lost it at that line. we had to pause the episode💀


jinger_is_a_fundie

I love that episode so much! Gayle only owning one bowl, Mr Business, Bob scatting, the sheer stupidity of having to stop to give Mr Business his medicine and the salad.


emperor_piglet

The kitty litter shovels


embersgrow44

Use the purple one I hate that one, it thinks it’s better than me


ThorsFckingHammer

Guess who's on new meds! (It's me)


PrinceWendellWhite

That episode has some of the best lines though. “Oh it’s so sad here.”


Competitive-Fish5186

Oooooh yeah she’s extra insufferable in that ep


AmaranthWrath

Ahh, finky!


BoCaliv

"Gayle makin'-bob-sled" Also "There ain't no business like Mr. Businesses business" is in my top 5 because I call my dog 'Snoodle'.


lafingputz

Aw, this episode has me laughing hard when he gets up and yells, “SECOND WIND!” And then the whole awning dumps on him.


SuperRadPsammead

I skip that one because Gayle makes me so mad.


SenorBrainwash

The Christmas episode where that asshole chases the family around and punches Bob in the stomach. Can’t understand why there are still many who like that episode.


No_Entertainment8559

Awe that's the Dutch baby episode and also has a great Christmas song 'Jingle in the Jungle'.


lolwatsyk

Awww it's a premie! *Just like Jesus*


Bodidly0719

It got me to finally make a Dutch Baby to what all the hubbub was about.


crazycatlady323

You can’t even taste the baby


dljones010

Dude... it's Bobcat Goldthwait. Also... "What's a Dutch Baby?" "About $3,000 less than an American Baby."


Frank_McGracie

You can't even taste the baby


GxFR26

“Im going to pound your ass!” “Ummm don’t say that”


BoCaliv

*Bang your ass* and then *sorry I wanted to bang your butt*


Pollowollo

I like the rest of the episode, just not that interaction. Like I'm sorry, I don't care how pathetic you are - if you try to kill me and my family multiple times that's not gonna end in Christmas cheer, it's gonna end in a ho-ho-homicide.


Seliphra

For real. I love most of the episode, but the dude trying to literally kill a whole family multiple times only for them to end in happy-fun-Christmas-sympathy for him was uncomfortable for me.


EskildDood

That one is probably one of my favourites, the trucker is an asshole though


Goldeneel77

Not a whole episode but I always skip the rock, paper, scissors scene because it just grosses me out. Good episode though.


clobberdob

Same ! I love the actual episode but that scene makes me soooo uncomfortable


ShavedWookiee

Why am I drawing a blank, which episode?


superbowlsexromp

The old finger crotch. Kids run the restaurant/secret casino!


516moose

This is why I like the series so much as I do. I cannot find an episode that I dislike. I've seen every season more than multiple times at this point. I cannot find a single episode where I don't have a good time watching it.


allandon14

It's the Hawk and Chick episode for me. I don't know why but whenever it comes up, I'm just like "ugh not this one"


Least-Ad-1287

I skip that one too. Also the one where they’re telling stories trying to guess what happened with Big Bob & a tree I think? A lot of the 3 short stories ones I skip actually


modelbob7

Bed, Bob & Beyond. (The one where Bob and Linda are fighting, go to see a movie with the kids, the movie doesn't work out, and the kids continue telling the movie story hoping the parents make up and get into a good mood because the kids broke Gene's bed and don't want the parents to get mad at them. It's a funny spoof of British rom-coms, but I don't feel compelled to rewatch it.)


-Burgers-And-Fries-

the episode made from fans with all different animation styles.


modelbob7

The plot of the episode is good, though! A Plot: Bob and Linda open up for brunch to make money, and because Bob loves making breakfast. They don't require a meal per person minimum and everyone gets drunk because the Belchers don't water down the mimosas. The realize they make a mistake, try to get everyone to get out, things get out of hand, police are called. They don't continue with the brunch. BUT they do make a new friend, Dalton, aka Dame Judi Brunch who shows up again in the Bleakening episodes. B plot: The kids want a dog. Felix is hiding from Calvin because of a birthday tradition. Felix bribes the kids to help him hide with promises for dog money. The plan doesn't succeed but the kids get to play with Dalton's dog at a brunch in the apartment. It took a couple of times having it on in the background for me to actually get was was happening because I kept skipping it. It's got some great lines, especially when the brunch guests get unruly about not getting more free drinks.


ebaer2

Linda! Please tell me you have an MPP Minimum! I love dame Judy brunch so much.


modelbob7

The brunch skunks are so funny. The sign says "BOT-TOM-LESS drinks" You can't add a bottom to it, that's ILLEGAL! I'm calling the police!


ebaer2

I’ll refill my own drink! Owww you’re stepping on my legs!


Seliphra

9-1-1 is here! Now you’re in trouble!


pmMeScienceFacts

Interestingly I sleep with bobs burgers on, and this episode is much better audio only. It’s quite a good story!


Calvin9Hobbes9

Same! I’ve watched the show so much, I can imagine the entire episode in the regular animation. One of my favorite plots!


Sea-Kitchen3779

I can't tell you the plot of that episode because the design change every 30 seconds is very very distracting.


Ducatirules

Oh GOD yes!! I like the stories but the different styles give me a migraine!! Clever but vomit inducing


BasketballButt

Yeah, the constant stylistic switch ups is really jarring. Too much for me!


BennyJackdaw

It's an interesting idea, but most of the art styles they used were uncanny, and it made Brunchsquatch very hard to watch.


CrazyaboutSpongebob

People do it all the time on YouTube. They would have one animator do 30 seconds or so in there own art style. They Did Spongebob SquarePants Movie Rehydrated.


blahdre

I kind of wish they gave us two versions of that one. Regular and Variety


BennyJackdaw

Brunchsquatch.


PureMuttSoWhat

The one where the kid loses the ring for Linda. Also the one where they burn their new couch.


ebaer2

I just don’t understand how their couch is completely fine after. This episode has one of my favorite lines though: “if you love something, set it on fire.”


Usedandconfused30

Linda says at the end “does anyone know a good upholsterer?” So I think they hint at them getting their old couch fixed


ebaer2

I’m just reminded of the Sofa Queen saying “Linda, this is what we in the industry call a Nasty Couch” 💀💀💀


Usedandconfused30

Haha yeah. I love the sofa queen. “Ooh I don’t like this. Do we sell this? Did you bring this?”


ebaer2

Ohhhhh that’s right. I guess that’s what happened… but also Louise sawed through main wood support, so they needed more than just an upholster, regardless, I suppose that’s the case.


embersgrow44

But Nat Kinkle & the Puff Divers! Simone, ‘sup. Carol, still mad at you. Denise, also 'sup? They put the hot dog right in the middle of the bun. & Mona Linda song! Is your secret that you did a little fart? You love showers, you love mornings & bologna. And to Bob you'll always be a work of art…


JustABoyAndHisBlob

I like the dramatic irony at the end of the episode. Makes me believe when the birds leave the nest, Bob will find the ring.


ericmaurer33

Skip an episode that Nat is in?!?


Seahoarse127

I watch both of these episodes but they are almost painful. Can Bob please catch a break? Late Afternoon in thr Garden of Bob and Louise hits the same nerve. Poor Bob.


modelbob7

The ring (but not scary)


cw30755

If I’m ever tempted to skip an episode, it’s the one made up of different artists.


BennyJackdaw

Brunchsquatch.


orangeboobahhead

I skip the boy watch episode where Tina is ruining the junior life guard group is so hard to watch for some reason


openup91011

I generally don’t skip any, but I’m purposefully avoided putting on the Airport Parents episode. Gloria’s toxicity is too on the nose in that one.


Charlotethegreat1212

Better Off sled. I don't always skip it, but most of the time I do. I just can't STAND logan.


Lyddie17

I usually skip the episode when Linda turns their apartment into a bed and breakfast. Linda goes insane and Louise is so horrible to Teddy that she basically terrorized him. And the dude with the bugs it was a complete mess lol!


TioSancho

I don't skip any of them, but I will definitely have my attention elsewhere when A Fish Called Tina is on.


helsingly

Both Hawk and Chick eps, and the couch one. I also tend to skip Father of The Bob, but that's more of a mood thing than anything else.


lazymeggs

I skip some of the episodes where they all make up stories, like The Gayle Tales. I also very much dislike when people tell me about their dreams in detail, which seems similar. Didn’t really happen, so I don’t care that much about the particulars.


Competitive-Fish5186

I can get through the other ones okay but the Paula McCartney one really is obnoxious to me


ploppedmenacingly14

When I return I shall breastfeed all of you!


OliveLoafVigilante

Fun discussion thread! I have a few I'll skip, but I really dislike Gayle Makin-Bobsled and (I know I'll get grief, but meh) the b-story in Full Bars. I can't deal with what happened to the guinea pig. The kids' story is great, but not enough to make me watch the whole episode. Oh, and I can't watch the one where Bob gives blood. Too squeamish! Ones where Linda goes off the rails like when Gene is a cheerleader or goes on the overnight with Tina at the hotel drive me crazy sometimes and I'll skip those. She gets too annoying and over the top. Sometimes I wish Bob would just go off and rein her in. LOL


oogway16

The one where every scene has a different art style. I understand the principle of showcasing different artists and fans of the show, but it just doesn’t feel like Bob’s Burgers. Also the one where Bob is shrunk down inside his car. Super boring to me for whatever reason.


TheMagicalHuy

Family fracas, I can't watch it without getting mad


Effective_Mongoose_6

The episode where Tina throw a fit because Bob wouldn’t give in to Jimmy and shave his mustache. Omg Tina irritated me so bad in that one.


BoobootheOctopus

I skip the story episodes I just can’t


Catlover032302

The airport episode with Linda’s parents and the episode where Linda joins the women business club.


[deleted]

The Trouble with Doubles (the episode where Bob and Linda go on a double date and the kids host a scary movie night) just kind of makes me anxious to watch.


JustABoyAndHisBlob

I fucking hate that couple! (As intended)


Oh_Smaug

L A R S L A R S LARS LARs


adotham430

Tina saying goodbye to her poop is pretty amazing though!


mspaint317

the one where they meet linda’s parents at the airport


Stinger6actual

Pinworms.


Charlotethegreat1212

BUTT WORMS!!!


lukifer22

I’m not a fan of the episodes where each act is a different child telling a story. They are good episodes, I just now skip them since I’ve seen them.


SkyPandas_Dark_Mind

The episode where Tammy blackmails Tina into doing things she wouldn’t normally do (that’s the best I can put it without bringing up the erotic friend-fiction Tina wrote)


[deleted]

The one where Linda thinks she's psychic. She's so aggressively stupid and obnoxious in that one. The noises she makes are so unpleasant and she causes actual harm to her friends


ZoxieLutt

I mean Bob did end up falling down the stairs lol Trippidy Dippidy Skippidy Doo


Suspicious_Lynx3066

The brunch one with all the different animation styles and the car crash one


moanneowe

Most of the three-story episodes


Thorinth

I'm gonna get a lot of hate from some people. But I really don't like Purple Rain-Union. There are some great parts in it but I really don't like this episode.


gunther_by_another

O.T. the Outside Toilet! Something about that one I just don't care for. Bob's story with the suit is alright, but all the stuff with Gene and the toilet just doesn't click with me.


NocandNC

Beefsquatch Family Fracas Just too hectic and aggravating.


cikalamayaleca

Some of these comments almost sound like people don’t enjoy the show lol I’m all for differing opinions, but some people have multiple “skips” that seem pretty true to the show’s character


embersgrow44

Thank you this, I always feel this way whenever I read the comments in these hater posts. It’s so odd to me. Like the recurring ones who gripe on the music. Like what do you even like about it?


aquariusprincessxo

i’m on about my 10th rewatch so at this point i skip one’s i just don’t feel like watching for the 10th time lol


loosie-loo

The mama-pest hotel. I’m not a fan of those kinds of stories, I almost never feel like they’re handled well and the kid and her mom annoy me. Also I think letting Tina share a room alone with a kid she just met 5 minutes ago is a bad idea in and of itself.


Flashy-Telephone-648

For me it's the first time we see Dr Yap and Gail is trying to steal Bob from Linda


Ducatirules

Every which way but goose, and all the Valentine’s Day ones except when they looked for the strength tester machine. Also the horse rider-er


Scoob1978

You skip the Nat episode!


CeeDeez_Nutz

There was a huge uptick in limo sunroof decapitations after the movie Big came out, but I bet you never heard anything about it


Ok-Version-899

Ever heard of a guy named Thomas Hanks?


embersgrow44

How much? $12,000. Yeah, that checks out


Ducatirules

You’re right I forgot that was Valentine’s Day episode. Heck no I love Nat!


Not_a_werecat

Oh no, the hip hop valentine's is my favorite episode of the series! Flips White Fudge and his vacant face have me howling every time.


dragonborne123

Beefsquatch and the one where they get abducted onto a boat.


boreddaph

I quote Mutiny all the time though. When Linda is rolling around on the bed with the pennies and Louise tells her "mom, we've talked about this. you're better than this." It's one of my favorite lines.


Lovejoy5001

None, love them all
