 In the ever-evolving landscape of television, achieving significant milestones has become increasingly rare. While reaching a benchmark of 100 episodes or celebrating a decade on air may be commendable, hitting the pinnacle of 300 episodes? Now that is an extraordinary accomplishment worth celebrating.

“Bob’s Burgers” proudly commemorates this remarkable achievement with the episode titled “Grand Pre-Pre-Pre-Opening,” which actually marks the premiere of Season 16. For creator Loren Bouchard, the sensation of reaching such heights after almost 15 years is both surreal and gratifying.

“I mean, a boy can dream, right? We didn’t truly expect it would last this long, but we certainly held on to hope,” Bouchard shares regarding the beloved animated Fox sitcom that first aired in 2011. “I know the network and the studio believed in it too. The challenge was clear: to create something that could follow in the footsteps of ‘The Simpsons.’”

Created by 20th Television Animation, “Bob’s Burgers” has captivated a loyal audience with its charming yet clever storytelling. The narrative revolves around the lives of Bob (H. Jon Benjamin) and Linda Belcher (John Roberts) and their three children, Tina (Dan Mintz), Gene (Eugene Mirman), and Louise (Kristen Schaal), as they navigate the trials and tribulations of running their small burger joint.

While Bouchard acknowledges that luck played a part in their successful run, he attributes much of the show’s enduring appeal to its relatable and humorous characters.

“Ultimately, if you’re crafting character-driven comedy, you have to give credit to those characters for any success you might achieve,” he explains. “Viewers must enjoy spending time with them, and they clearly still want to.”

The 300th episode centers around Bob grappling with the decision to raise prices during a hectic time, while Linda prepares for childbirth. This installment heavily leans into nostalgia, featuring flashbacks that showcase the early days when Bob and Linda first opened their restaurant more than ten years ago.

The nostalgic essence resonates deeply with modern TV audiences, aligning perfectly with the overarching themes of the show.

“It’s a heartwarming series about a working-class family chasing a seemingly irrational, yet creative dream centered around their restaurant. Since the characters do not age, we are left wondering whether they will ultimately succeed or fail, but we wholeheartedly feel their determination and optimism, which is undoubtedly valuable in today’s world,” Bouchard observes. “Optimism can often be portrayed poorly in entertainment, sounding almost cliché. Yet, ‘Bob’s Burgers’ delves into a more profound perspective of hope, illustrating how it can persist even during tough times.”

Bouchard finds it challenging to identify with one particular character. “My feelings shift daily; just when I think I can relate to one character, I catch myself channeling another,” he admits. Nevertheless, he remains enthusiastic about continuously exploring their stories.

“We will keep producing the show as long as there is an audience eager to watch and stories left to tell. In some ways, we feel that we’re just getting started,” he states.

Additionally, the expanding universe of “Bob’s Burgers” merchandise, which Bouchard affectionately calls the BCU, is set to introduce new items this year, including themed aprons, recipes, and fresh apparel.

Moreover, the long-awaited release of “The Art of Bob’s Burgers” is scheduled for September 23, celebrating the intricate artistry behind the series. This forthcoming book promises never-before-seen visuals and insights from Loren Bouchard, art director Phil Hayes, and the talented animation team.

“This book holds significant value for us,” Bouchard recently expressed. “We deeply appreciate the artists’ contributions to the show and wish to honor the extensive work, numerous drawings, and countless hours of creativity that have shaped the series.”
