The Belchers can't catch a break.

They were just about to cement their status as the premiere of their film in the summer of 2020. Even with the Disney buyout, the film was on course for release.

That is until the 'rona hit.

Now everything is delayed, including the movie. At least the amount of animated television can continue with the magic of voice acting. So unlike most shows, they can debut as planned.

As always, be sure to set your DVR up to an hour in advance in case of any late games in the fall.

The show premieres September 27th at 9/8c on FOX.

Given the way animation schedules are, I believe COVID will impact next season and not this one. I wouldn't be surprised if this season had already been completed for some time.

I'm so happy this is coming back. Bob's Burgers is my comfort food show, and since this is 2020 I've been binging this in a probably unhealthy frequency.

Like I said last season, they need to town Tina and the boy crazy stuff. it's just too much at this point.

I love the show and am looking forward to the new season.

I often wonder if Tina's shit would be nearly as widely accepted if she was a boy like they originally planned and was doing all her creepy shit to girls.

Isn't that canonically why they flipped her gender? And then they reused her original male design for that creepy boy who "dates" her in the Beefsquatch episode, which indicates they know exactly how creepy it was.

(Because men who act like that have a history of acting out in violent ways, which is baggage that a female version of the character does not carry.)

The Halloween episode is happening now after the delay due to the World Series.

Man, even Jimmy Jr. couldn't get a pass in a time capsule from Tina, uninspired gum aside.

I was not big on the last season or 2 but this one has been a return to form of sorts. Less focus on the individual family members and more of an ensemble feel which honestly works a lot better than instead of episodes focusing heavily around Tina or Gene.

Geez it's been 200 episodes already? What a great run while keeping the quality consistent.

LMAO, I love these food Thanksgiving movie spoofs of Predator, Air Force One, and Armageddon. These are all such favorite movies of my youth.

Holy shuttle indeed Gene.

Edit: That security guy was the MVP for managing that crisis on his first day.

I hope this episode is better than the Halloween and Thanksgiving episodes. Those were pretty bad. The show usually has pretty good holiday episodes, but the last two sucked.

Gene's relationship with Linda feels like a weird change up. I don't ever remember it being so intense or creepy.

That said the current episode kind of sucks. I hate what a fucking tool Bob can be, I prefer when his neurosis are a bit less in everyone's face.

So the Christmas episode wasn't as strong as it usually is. Still, the season has made some bangers so far which is rare for a show lasting as long as this one.

This season has already had like three of those "Belcher kids telling three stories" episodes. Maybe two, but it feels like three. I'm generally not a fan of those.

Otherwise it has been pretty good. The airport episode was the best and funniest one so far.

The show is super formulaic and has been for several seasons. Not surprising considering how long its been running but it does feel rather lazy on the writers part.

I really wouldn't mind if they started winding down and ended the series this season or next season, after the movie.

Good news is Bob's Burgers will return tonight. The bad news is that NASCAR has overrun the usual broadcast by as much as an hour, so set your DVR accordingly.

Unless they call off the race or move it to FS1, Bob's Burgers and Family Guy won't be on. They only got 15/200 laps finished before it started to rain.

New episode is still slated to air in Canada at 10pm Eastern (post-American Idol) for what that's worth.

EDIT: Yep, Romancing the Beef is airing up here. So part of the block wasn't circumvented for Daytona.
