Two episodes in a row without a single laugh. I'm done with this turd. Please bring back Bob's Burgers!

+1 I can't believe this turd is likely the reason Bob's Burgers only got a half season order.

I'm convinced that

a) somebody pulled strings somewhere to get this horrible show bundled with the great Fox Sunday cartoon block of all things and

b) it's talentless people with some power in high places who have no taste in comedy are making this simply because they thought whatever trash they were able to shove in the the cartoon block would work and be able to ride the coat tails of people who actually know comedy.

I'm just agog this thing even made it to air...hell I've seen (much) funnier Youtube videos.

Yup. This show just isn't good.

This show might have been better if the central characters were Julie and her friends. As it is now the main characters have zero redeeming qualities and are all tools.

It finally started getting interesting with the introduction of Allen's mother. And then the show went right back to status quo. I'm done with this one.

I think FOX is done with it too. They bumped the final episode from this sunday (surrounded by new episodes of Simpsons and Family Guy) to the 18th (surrounded by reruns).

I can't see this show getting a second season, and it probably only made it to last night because of Jonah Hill promoting The Sitter on Animation Domination.

I don't think the show is terrible, I was laughing at a lot of the jokes this week. If they would tone Allen and the bald dad down some and give the likable characters more screen time I think you'd have a really solid show.

RIP to a funny show.


The commercials for this had me thinking it was just a ridiculously stupid show that tried too hard, but after watching the episodes it's pretty clever and funny.
