20th Century Fox said today that it is making a feature film based on the Fox animated series Bob’s Burgers and has set a July 17, 2020 release date. The series is coming off an Emmy win this year for Outstanding Animated Series and took the same honor in 2014.
The series first appeared on Fox in midseason 2011. Fox Animation will produce the film.
“We’re thrilled to be invited to bring Bob’s Burgers to the big screen,” show creator Loren Bouchard said. “We know the movie has to scratch every itch the fans of the show have ever had, but it also has to work for all the good people who’ve never seen the show. We also know it has to fill every inch of the screen with the colors and the sounds and the ever so slightly greasy texture of the world of Bob’s – but most of all it has to take our characters on an epic adventure. In other words, it has to be the best movie ever made. But no pressure, right?!”
The series follows the lives, loves and misadventures of the Belcher family and their friends and rivals. Bob Belcher (voice of H. Jon Benjamin) runs a hamburger restaurant in a seaside town, with his ever-optimistic wife Linda (John Roberts) and their three children: self-conscious Tina (Dan Mintz), goofball Gene (Eugene Mirman) and precocious Louise (Kristen Schaal).
“A Bob’s Burgers film fits perfectly with our initiative to redouble our family and animation efforts,” said Twentieth Century Fox Film chairman and CEO Stacey Snider. “We’re grateful to [Fox Television Group chairmen Gary Newman and Dana Walden] for trusting us with this beloved property and we’re so excited to be working with Loren and his team.”
Lucky worked as a guest character, but not as a regular.
"Got me a $24,000 settlement by god, won't have to work another day in my life."
Though he had some good moments, like when he wanted to help Bobby get into the tortilla chip factory to taste a chip fresh off the assembly line. His brilliant plan was to climb the fence around factory to get in. He fell and hurt himself, which revealed his *real* brilliant plan, which was to threaten to sue unless they let him and Bobby eat a chip off the line.
Factory Manager: "You jumped our fence!"
Lucky: "That attractive nuisance is what I like to call Exhibit A."
Lucky as a character worked best when he was paired with Hank and trying to better himself. The problem is Luanne and him didn't work right.
They were both dumb in the same way and I feel like Lucky should have at least been street smart to contrast her blind optimism.
I have a podcast now. It's about video games and anime!Find it here.
I can't remember, but was King of the Hill meant to end at the wedding of Luanne and Lucky. Cause I remember thinking that it definitely felt like a series finale.

The final episode was intended to be To Sirloin With Love but because of networking conflicts Another Manic-Khan Day aired as the finale. Spoilers for the episode below. It's a very good ending to the series.
The finale ends with Bobby finally finding a passion (meat from a butchers perspective) and joining a team from the junior college to correctly identify various cuts of meat. Bobby wins the championship despite doubts from others and the Hills decide to celebrate by lighting up the grill for their friends, family, and neighbors. Hank and Bobby at long last connect with one another over the propane flame with Hank mentioning he's waited thirteen years for the moment and Bobby pulling off the final steak lamenting that it's "the last one".
The ending also reveals that Dale has figured out how to relieve Nancy's headaches and Boomhauer is a Texas Ranger.

Hope not. I like 'Hank and Bobby finally connecting through their love of barbecuing' way better.

My favorite Lucky B plot had to do with waiting in line six days to get godawful tickets to a show no one cares about expressly for the position it gave them for one solo.
The Code of the Line dictates he won't even save Luanne a spot while she goes to the bathroom, but allows Bobby to go to school because "The Code acknowledges that the children are our future."

Oh yeah, I loved that. he brought something like 6 loaves of bread, expecting to trade them off the line for supplies.

here's the last minute. my memory ain't what it used to be.
You're both right. The wedding episode was made because Fox had cancelled them (Judge talks about them having cleared out their offices), so it was definitely designed as a series finale. Then Fox found they had a gap in their schedule and gave the series a reprieve.
Only for it to be cancelled again for *sighs* The Cleveland Show.
And it's a travesty you can't find the show in any streaming service.

I am pretty okay with it being cancelled.
It's one of my favorite shows of all time but I would hate to have seen it become some sort of lumbering corpse that barely resembles the original product.
There's not really an episode of King of the Hill I won't sit down and watch if it's on television.
I don't know if Bill would do it unless he got swept up in a group think of other people doing it. I have a feeling Bill would just vote however Hank was voting.
...but they sure as hell wouldn’t have voted for Hillary either. Dale would have voted for/written in something fringe; the rest would have probably just not voted for President at all (like most of my “Trump would be a shitty president, but fuck Hillary” Indiana red state coworkers did).
Trump is too big of a potty mouth in public at first glance for hank to ever think about supporting.
I could have seen during the primaries, an episode about bobby helping volunteer for the GoP and then hank uncovering the catch and trying to yank bobby out of it.
Hank Hill is probably flagged in some system by now. He's had run-ins with the law (anger issues with the canadian neighbor), charges were dropped for bombing a car dealership. Is friends with a faux-extremist with access to poison, his wife who works in media, a military vet in rapidly declining health who they keep an eye on(because they experimented on and he might harbor a grudge,[did they catch him stealing that tank?]), and a texas ranger. I almost want to say Khan had to have been into something too, and wife is president of the gun club) Edit: wasn't it luannes dead boyfriends fault the megalo mart exploded? And they directly thought hank blew it up as terrorism. And also they thought he murdered his bosses.... wife or mistress. all that was so hard to keep track of.
That's like the best clip show parodying making a murderer about a 'foiled terrorist plot' right there.
"A satire of Ken Burns' epic documentary, Baseball, the special features interviews with eight Major League Baseball players appearing in the original episode, along with baseball historians, sportscasters, and iconic personalities, such as Fox Sports' Joe Buck, sports announcer Bob Costas, author George Will, Dr. Oz, fashion consultant and television personality Tim Gunn and New York City Mayor Bill De Blasio," according to Fox statement. "Current Yankee slugger and Major League Baseball AL MVP candidate Aaron Judge also appears in the special."
This thread reminded me that when I was younger we had a station herein Canada that would play King of the Hill then Kids in the Hall back to back after school.
So decided to watch Simpsons for the first time in years. The Mayor's voice is way off, dunno if they replaced it or it's been that way for a while. The sign outside made me laugh though
Ah ok, yeah it will be reset. Unless there is more story to tell there.
Finished the Simpsons, it fell flat as usual. As soon as they focused on jerkass Homer I knew that Marge would sacrifice her success for him, but it's such a small scale change relatively I don't know why they didn't run with Mayor marge for a few episodes, it's not like there is any life left in Quimby or home body Marge.

I'll argue that he had some good moments but Lucky was a big minus to the cast overall.
Still Tom Petty was a cool dude pity that he's passed
it was a really weird departure from the format of the show to keep him as constant
but i think it helped make luanne less of a one note character.
That was because they reversed all of Luanne's character development and even dumbed her down over time
I'm not arguing. It was a really tough character to fit into the family.

I find myself confounded by its existence and what it considered comedy gold with each glance.

Never have I been angrier at a tweet.
I could see Bill doing it and having a real panic afterward.

It was the Koth/Kith hour
The comics did a bit like 15 years ago where Lisa was possessed by Madonna. So Simpsons did it before the Simpsons did it.
Yeah even though it was cartoon violence that one was hard to watch.
It was actually interesting, specially the ending.
It'll be interesting if the ending stays in place.
"Monorail Inquiry - No questions"
Reset. Like when they did the whole "Hey, we're killing off Brian" thing, then three episodes later Brian's back and status quo is maintained.
