Bob's Burgers Season 13 Review 

What should I talk about next? Comment it here!

Fun fact: the plight before christmas is actually the new highest rated bob's burgers episode on imdb, which is pretty shocking considering the fact that the episode that was the highest rated bob's burgers episode was the hauntening, which was all the way back in season 6.

There were a couple of episodes that had me so teary-eyed that I told my wife I ate an edible as a cover

This was easily one of my top favorite seasons. I honestly didn’t dislike a single episode, and there were some new all-timers in my opinion. I’m so glad Bob’s Burgers still has a heart and soul, even after 13 seasons.

This season was like REALLY good. Compared to the last two seasons, this one had WAY too many bangers. The energy in the writers room must’ve shifted.

Amelia and the Christmas ep definitely made me tear up a bit, and i really loved the April Fools one and the radio one. Even if BB isnt as consistently funny as it once was, i can still appreciate the emotional and character moments.

Linda is very sweet in the season finale. Helping Louise while she’s having a massage is really amazing

This season was a huge step up and I really like the chances they took. They had more grounded and emotional episodes, while also having the silly ones. And what I really loved was them trying different storytelling ways. Like Bob telling a story about his grandmother, Amelia episode combines the actual project Louise was making and the flashbacks to making it. Also regarding the potential age up, I feel like they might move them up a grade. That could be really interesting because we would see a new dynamic with Tina graduating and going to High School.

I feel they should do more with that Radio style episode? Maybe each adult characters share a story from their family from various of eras while the kids comment on it. Wouldn’t mind hearing one from Teddy or Linda

Sincerely sort of hated Linda in Mother Author Laser Pointer. Watching her outright harass this woman who immediately just wanted to be left alone, I dunno. Linda's all-or-nothing in how she does things, and we've seen that blow up in her face plenty of times before in better episodes. The fact that she's ultimately sympathized with, but not forgiven sort of redeems the plot, but that still didn't make the episode remotely enjoyable to watch for me. The Teddy joke was hilarious though, and overall I did really like this season.

If Jimmy Pesto never comes back or it's never explained where he's been, I would be okay with that. I like to imagine that Bob meditated Pesto into non-existance. X>

I think it could be interesting to see them bring in the Pesto Kids's mom. She's talked about once or twice throughout the show, and I think with what happened to Jimmy Sr's VA, is a really good opportunity to bring her in.

The Plight Before Christmas in my opinion, is the best episode ever and it is now the number 1 rated episode on Bobs Burgers for IMDb.

I love the down the middle episodes, they are reminiscent of real life, not great not terrible, life really does imitate art, its what bobs burgers is all about in my opinion.

They need to hire Lucky Yates as Jimmy and start writing him back into episodes. I also miss Trev. Show Mama from the Grave was my favourite from this season. The background animators deserve an award for the cemetery animations.

I like the vignette episodes but only because not many shows do it and it's an incredible way of including minor characters without having minor characters contribute to the overall story. It doesnt risk building up lore that can't be sustained But I'm really tired of the series undermining characters' interests and hobbies. We've been with these characters for 10 years. Seeing them fail is not funny or enjoyable. Let Gene be good at music and Jimmy Jr good at dance. That's way more compelling than making characters seem annoying bc they like things

I've literally been checking your channel every day for this 😅 I'm so excited to watch it!!!

I quite liked what about job, the grabber part is done so well I love how epic they made her, and the clean energy joke gets me every time. I’m also not a huge fan of those type of episodes but it’s one of the better ones I think Also plight before Christmas is imo the best Xmas episode of any show I’ve seen, tears every single time, it touches the heart so hard thinking about my siblings, they outdid themselves on that one definitely deserves the spot he gave it

The animation is so beautiful. I mightve rewatched the episodes of Bob's mother 10 times. I can't rewatch the Christmas episode or the finale for a bit because the way I cried... I can't do that again lol

I have been waiting for this video when I saw it was out I screamed I love this channel so much

I think the writers may have been tired or burnt out from the movie and making it so good that most of the episodes suffered from it. There were good episodes, but most of them aren’t as good as I know they can regularly be

Personally my favourite ep was The Plight Before Christmas, it was wonderful, made me tear up. But honestly for a few seasons now, including this I've been missing the fun unhinged Belchers and Louise from the first seasons. Yes I get what they're trying to do, she's maturing etc. But honestly now with so many of the eps needing to have some sort of meaning I'm definitely getting bored and loosing interest. Feels like an ending where they're trying to tie everything up and I miss the fun and random episodes where not everything had to have meaning. Also I know I'm in the minority but I've never liked Gene, so obnoxious to me, so I'm glad his eps have been bad recently 😅 Love Louise, Bob and Tina to bits! Just my personal opinion, I know everyone feels different about the show and that's great, still love Bob's Burgers to bits

The last episode was SO much better than Topsy. This is such a powerful and impactful episode

I must disagree with you on the job episode for Louise. Not only do I love Louise centered episodes, but her family is willing to hear her out and help out with her anxieties about the future. And Bob even dismisses his biggest dream (the restaurant) in order to help his daughter. They stories themselves are great, especially Bobs.

I used to not like the vignetted episodes. But now I feel it endearing that a family is just sitting together and talking about ideas. Whatever the idea maybe.

I personally loved the crab wrestling episode because of its absurdity. In a show where that kind of humor isn’t the forefront, I find it pretty funny when they do use it

One of the best seasons by far.

Mother Author Laser Pointer is by far my least favorite episode. Linda is more psycho then usual making it out of character, and falsely imprisons her in the resturant. The whole episode was just so uncomfortable

I loved this season so much, some episodes got me crying like a baby

I'm honestly in love with this season. For one, not one single episode felt like a filler or a half hearted episode. And then it had 3!! episodes were I bawled my eyes out. The moment Bob said hello to his mom at her grave and was sorry she couldn't ever meet her grandkids hit so hard because it reminded me of sitting at my grandpas grave who passed not long before the season came out. Then the plight before christmas episode showed the huge character development Louise made. And then the last episode was a fantastic close to this season. Bobs burgers showed once again that you can tackle topics like feminism and toxic masculinity in a way that isn't pretentious or denounced. It just showed a little girl realising that beeing a hero you don't have to succed in everything and be the best, you just have to fight for what you love and believe in. And that is a great message for everyone out there, especially little girls who struggle to find a place in a men dominated world

I thought the birdwatching episode was really good! I liked best the part when Bob, Tina, and the Ranger were looking at the owl from the park washroom.

Bob burger

Glad to see some proper appreciation for Kathleen! She's been a favourite of mine ever since her introduction, and it's nice to see Teddy having a long-term relationship that seems to be going well.

Honestly, I wasn't a huge fan of the season myself, there were a few episodes I deeply enjoyed, and others I found myself struggling to finish. I find most people really like the plight before Christmas, which is fair, it had a lot of heart. My personal favourites had to Radio no you didn't and The Reeky Lake Show.

You didn’t rank the gift card episode

There were some misses, but some of the episodes have become my favorites

Its here!

Just thinking about the poem episode makes me want to cry 😭 definitely my favorite season 13 episode!

last episode is probably my favorite of the entire series. immediately went to reddit to talk about it.. but the subreddit was private. sigh.

Really like that you like episode 10 - its a really lovely episode

I immediately loved the story with Bob's grandma, I rewatched it two or three times. Absolutely my favorite of the season.

I did find the season small not many side characters but great family connection

Man what a return to form season 13 was! I didn't hate or not want to rewatch a single episode (maybe ep 5 was the low point for me)

13 was such a different season. I really wanted to see more of the supporting characters as this season was primarily centered around the family. I also realized they don't seem to have little songs anymore but couldn't remember what season they actually stopped. I always enjoyed the songs and was glad when they started doing them. Looking forward to season 14.

Yeah bro that teddy line was wild 😭

how on earth can u dislike the anthology episodes!!!? they are among the absolute best!!!!!

The Plight Before Christmas episode was the first episode of Bob's that genuinely made me sob 😢😅 By far my top 5 favorite episodes

Please do a ranking ever Parks and Rec episode

New season 14 airs Oct 1st

YESSSS YOU DID IT!

This season was very hit and miss but a huge improvement over 12. There was a mix of funny episodes like What an April Fool Believes with awful boring episodes like Gift Card or Hardly Trying.

Season 13 has some of my top bobs burgers episodes

I have to agree on the vignette episodes. Like, every time they drag one out now it comes at the cost of my sanity.

Season 13 has been great that I've seen - in fact episode 10 might be my all time favourite Bob's Burgers episode

2:47 Fans on Reddit seem to dislike the Vignette episodes. They are once a year so I don't mind.

Linda is absolutely unbearable in Mother Author Laser Pointer. Her obsessiveness is dialed to 11, and it's hard to watch. Definitely agree about Ready Player Gene being the worst of the season. Gene-centered episodes have generally been pretty bad over the later seasons. Show Mama From the Grave was definitely the best of the season, it's a beautiful episode, both visually and story-wise.

WE need more One Eye Snakes

The Bleakening episodes are 🔥

It was the first year in our house, around Xmas and my 2 year olds 2nd Xmas, and this girl loves Bob’s burgers just like her mom and dad!!! It hit me hard and like the lil bitch I am, I teared up big time. Especially after the Cemetery episode. Loved these 2 episodes back to back!!!

Where did Gift Card or Buy Trying and Amelia end up in the final ranking? You didn’t say those.

Will we get a season 14 review?

No but that Christmas episode made me cry.

This was a really solid season. It definitely had a lot most stand-out episodes the series has had in a while.

Visually my favorite episodes are Halloween, rainy / stormy ones, and ones that are taking place in new spaces, especially those outdoors. Two episodes I constantly skip is the one with the cow standing outside their restaurant, because it’s sad and the one of Louise having a cavity. While I like the plot of the cavity episode, I can’t stand all the Louise screaming in that episode.

when/are we getting Twin Peaks iceberg pt 2 👀👀

Season 14 airs Oct. 1st

I like the crab wrestling

dude i want to have like a couple hour long conversation with 10k productions about bobs burgers, nobody ik cares enough to talk about my theories and opinions on the show

I didn't I don't remember watching bob's burgers when it 1st came out maybe I did maybe I didn't but I will say most people have memories at the sampsons and other shows like that and my favorite memory is Bob's burgers burgers the early days the thanksgiving Halloween episodes just it's already got an nostalgic for me already memories around and things I was doing when I was watching the show thanks for the video bro keep him coming

I would love to see an episode with the kids as adults

There probably never doing an age up simply because it was 8th grade summer during the movie and Tina is still in 8th grade during the next season.

I got slightly triggered when you called hurling “this weird sport” an an Irish person lol

2:40 now I’m with u on that one. It’s fine after a few seasons, but it gets annoying when it’s every season or worse they do it twice within one season and I’m looking at u Family Guy. To me at this point it makes it feel like they’re running out of ideas and it could be a sign they should stop the show. Family Guy did this I think last season or a season before it and what made it worse was that it happened twice within the season I believe. Again I don’t mind it when it’s here and there, but for it to be this far within the show and happen every season is kinda like “oh here we go again”.

This season was meh, had episodes that looked like character development then dropped the ball in the end. The one where Loise reads her poem should of ended with her and Tina hugging to build that little sister, big sister bond instead Linda shows up and ruins the moment. After saying she could leave the girl scouts because she was needed. Gene and his GF suddenly not knowing how to play music in the same episode was like "really?".

how you feel about Gene is how I feel about Tina to be honest that episode where she falls for a bunch of boys one after is still my least favorite of the whole series

Season 13 really lost me, and i felt the show needed put down. Thank GAWD for season 14

I despise the vignette episodes lol

Bobs burgers > any other sitcom

Radio No You Didn't was VERY good. It was different... 📻

please rank every rick and morty episode!!!

Hated this season. Waaaaay too many wholesome moments and too preachy with a lesson at the end of nearly every episode. I'd like to see them put the Belchers in actual fun situations next season. I was so disappointed with S13.

In all honesty, I’ve HATED the recent seasons. I think it’s mostly the dialogue that ruins it for me, as all it seems like they do is repeat their goal for the episode with little to no banter. Just “oh my god look at those nippin’ nevins how will we go out with the nippin’ nevins nippin’ nevins nippin’ nevins” or something like that. It was like that for the comet-y of errors too, and it drove me INSANE, having to hear them repeat the same thing over and over about signs and kettlecorn. Luckily they’ve improved after that god awful 2 part episode ending of season 12, because those were AWFUL, but it feels like they haven’t improved much. It was mostly just a really boring season with a few good episodes sprinkled in. (In my opinion)

I don't understand how Ready Player Gene is supposed to be funny. There aren't any jokes and it doesn't end on a punchline or anything.

I know it's a cartoon but I was apualled by Bob's parenting in Reaky Lake Show. I understand the kids sneaking and watching tv but hiding from your own wife is pathetic. Also how did that tv even work. They didn't have a digital converter box. Also what would they even be watching since that tv didn't have cable. Their opinions are sports, PBS Kids, and Me TV. If they brought a Roku that would have closed that plot hole.

I always find all Jimmy junior episodes are the most boring

nah the wrestling episode is 1000x more believable if youre in the wrestling scene

Jimmy in jail for a long time he's a fool

Pestos in jail real jail

i hope jimmy pesto never returns

I don’t like gen ,Linda, teddy or Tina but it’s my favorite show! Crazy I know but it just is!

Please please elaborate more it got real repetitive 🙃

The newer seasons have been disappointing. I miss the old episodes of Bob's Burgers when episodes revolved around more adult oriented topics. These newer episodes feel homogenized and sterile.
