I've been a casual watcher of Bob's Burgers for a while now, and I felt like it was finally time to see the movie. The show's stories have always been pretty low-key and low-stakes, so I was curious to find out how they would translate that into a feature length film. And they actually pulled it off! Sure, this time the plot has a bigger scope, but it still feels plausible within the show's universe. And most importantly, the movie keeps all the humor and heart that makes the show so lovable and compelling. I must admit it was a bit weird to see these characters and settings with big-budget animation and film-style cinematography, but once you get used to that, it feels as warm and genuine as ever. To sum up, if you have ever enjoyed this show (even as a casual watcher like me), then you can't miss out on the movie version.

Honorable Mentions - The Bob's Burgers Movie (dir. Loren Bouchard & Bernard Derriman)
Movies based on long-running adult-animated programs tend to not be smash-hits in the quality department. We all remember the half-funny, extended episode that was The Simpsons Movie. However, The Bob's Burgers Movie might just be the single funniest piece of media that was unleashed upon the world in 2022. With a whip-crack sense of humor that rivals anything from the show both in dialogue as well as animated visual gags, this romp through Seymour's Bay had me crying for basically the entire runtime. The characters are lovably funny, the animation is excellent, even the songs hit a funny bone in me that similar animated musical numbers just don't normally hit. If you're at all a fan of the world of Bob's Burgers and its characters and you haven't seen this yet, stop wasting your time and get on it.
Currently streaming on Hulu & HBO Max.
