Bob's Burgers: Christmas

December 6, 2016

"The Last Gingerbread House on the Left" Season 7, Episode 7

This show honestly has the best holiday episodes. These are always my go-to first reviews because I just enjoy them so damn much. This is the fifth Christmas episode from Bob's Burgers and it is among the best in my opinion. The episode centers around two main plots. The family is planning on going caroling, but at the last minute Bob is called over to Mr. Fischoeder's. He tells Bob he wants a food delivery, but in reality, he wants Bob to compete in a gingerbread house competition with some of his wealthy friends. He wants Bob to lose on purpose because he is tired of losing every year. However, once Bob learns what the prize is and endures Mr. Fischoeder's taunting for too long, he decides to try to win. Meanwhile, caroling is not as much fun as the family anticipated but they find joy from an unlikely audience. This episode is a combination of sweet and silly, which is my preferred execution of a Christmas special. The gingerbread house competition is honestly hilarious, and Linda and the kids trying to spread holiday cheer via caroling is adorable. Definitely check this one out if you can.
