Bob’s Burgers premiered in 2011 and is now moving into its ninth season, the premiere of which is just around the corner. This animated comedy series follows the lives of the Belcher family – a family consistently haunted by bad luck and circumstance, but held together by love, wit, and the thin walls of a small family diner. The tried and tested devotion that the Belchers have for one another may not help them to overcome every obstacle thrown at them, but, at the very least, it allows them to weather the storm.
Stacked with two Emmy’s, a comic book spin-off, and millions of weekly viewers, there is no question that Bob’s Burgers is truly a fan favourite. It remains to be decided, however, whether or not you are a true Bob’s Burgers fan. As much of this show’s success is thanks to its original and dynamic cast of characters, there is no better way to put your fan-status to the test than to take this Character Quiz.
Are you a diehard fan? Do you really know the ins and outs of the residents of Ocean Avenue and Seymour’s Bay? Can you not only name each individual Belcher, but also the guidance counselor, the landlord, and the landlord’s brother? If so, you might just pass the test.
