There Might Be 32 Episodes of 'Bob's Burgers' Next Season

by | August 24th, 2012

Fox has ordered six additional scripts from Bob's Burgers, putting them at 19 for Season 3. However, they also have 13 finished episodes lying around from Season 2. That is a lot of episodes and A LOT of hamburger puns. This is a very heartening sign. B'sBs is not a ratings powerhouse; however, the word is that the people over at Fox really like the show, which makes sense because it is super and the best. In honor of their good treatment, expect to see the "20th Sesame Lox Burger" on the Bob's Burgers special board next season.

Yep, amazing. If Jack Donaghy gets kicked off an airplane in the same half-hour, this episode will enter Hall of Fame territory.

IN THIS CASE, the “NERD” [...]
