      I don’t know “electric love” is literally unironically good? It has a full counterpoint chorus in the background of the main chorus. Where does an 11 year old learn that? I want that energy, creatively. And it’s not part of the weird hyper-reality that most musical numbers in the show or most musicals have in general. It’s not a dream sequence, it’s something he canonically wrote. I’d be concerned that talent like that isn’t being nurtured in that age, rather than “here’s a straw, kid. Start a band, live your crazy dream.”

      The sibling dynamic feels very real. That, and the show gets that “kid smart” isn’t “mini adult”. Louise thrilled to have Micky on the phone, being her delightful off the wall and totally in charge self and then shrieking “IT’S MY DADDY!!!!” When the cop tries to grab the phone.

    Bob's Burgers is the only "adult" animated show I can watch without feeling kind of gross afterwards. It's the only show my parents have watched with my siblings an I. My mom owns a restaurant where we all worked so it's very relatable. The episode that got us all to watch was "The Terminalator 2". It got us all uproariously laughing, because the Belchers were us and our grandparents.
    We actually want to relate to the Belchers in some ways. The kids genuinely care about not only eachother, but their friends, their teachers and other random people in the neighborhood like Mickey or Teddy. Even when they've been wronged by those people, they all go out of their way to help them. I think Bob's Burgers is a rarity, because it still emphasizes compassion and personal growth while keeping the characters' more ridiculous faults. It goes out of its way to empower the kids for being so weird. Bob's Burgers is just a fantastic show.

    • @strawberrycherrybaby
      @strawberrycherrybaby Рік тому +10

      Being able to watch with your family is a great additional point. It’s written well enough that almost all the adult jokes would fly right over a kids head, and doesn’t have overly gross or raunchy themes just for shock value. I could watch this with my in-laws and not feel awkward (except for maybe the my little pony satire episode, that’s just wild lol). A similarly bribed show, I think, is king of the hill. Hanks sensible boundaries keeps the show from getting overly raunchy 90% of the time, and while he does sometimes disagree with his son Bobby, he always ends up supporting him or learning from him (much like bob and his kids). Plus they both actually love their wife. Most cartoon marriages are super dysfunctional and sexist.

  • @Mathue360

    This family, is a family. They look out for each other, try to do right each other and actually like each other. I can't think of any show where the oldest sister likes her siblings this much. Tina may not always give off big sister energy but when she puts her foot down it's clear.
    Gene embodies middle childom, he goes with the flow and is just doing his own thing.
    You can tell immediately that Louise is the youngest, she's impulsive, sassy and childish. She's got a good heart but doesn't want people to know. I love this show!

    Tina is definitely the ‘good’ child between the 3 kids. She’s the one who always tries to do the right thing and hates lying. But her awkwardness and desperation for romance is a little concerning at times. Like the time she started ‘dating’ a goose to the point she was writing erotic fiction about having kids with it, the time she fell for a voice on an old tape and purposely failed a test to keep hearing it, the time she started dating a ‘ghost’ in a box, and of course her erotic friend fiction, her obsession with jimmy jr to the point of collecting his socks, and when she snuck into that boys only audition to find this boy she insisted she ‘loved’ when she only met him that day.

    • @debatable98
      @debatable98 Рік тому +103

      Yeah Tina kinda represents how writers think of all teenage girls in “love”. They turn it into a creepy obsession and it’s marketed as “cute” and “she’s just a kid” when it would be certifiably insane if a boy did the same thing. It often comes at the expense of the character too, Tina’s great, then she does stuff like that and you’re kinda like 🫤👍.
      And their friends and family either support or dismiss this behaviour as a phase when it’s having real effects on their perception and decision-making. *cough* Marinette Dupain-Cheng *cough* . It kinda looks like Tina is going to turn out like Aunt Gale, who clearly never had a reality check as a kid and is now a grown-up baby.
      But that’s really my only gripe with Bobs burgers, it’s my favourite animated show otherwise.

    On the topic of first impressions on designs, before I watched the show I expected Louise to be one of those manic, hyper cutesy characters, like Bubbles or Mabel (ironic because i didn't know she was also voiced by Kristen Shaal) because of the pink bunny ears and dress. I feel like alot of cartoons where I see tomboy characters they always VEHEMENTLY hate pink and dresses. As a kid who was labeled the tomboy of the group I felt like I had to hate that stuff, too, even though pink was my favorite color at the time. I appreciate a character like Louise who can like cutesy things without it impacting the legitimacy of her other interests.

    I think the best thing about the BKs is that their group dynamic is rather similar to one of my favorite trios, the Eds from Ed, Edd n Eddy. Think about it,
    -You’ve got the lovable dimwit who’s usually in his own world and very well versed in one-liners. (Ed and Gene)
    - The intelligent voice of reason who’s usually the first one to hesitate about a plan and the first one to try to talk their partners into doing the right thing or out of doing something stupid. (Double D and Tina)
    -And finally, the tiny diabolical mastermind who loves money and is usually the one behind whatever crazy scheme lands the trio in trouble. (Eddy and Louise)
    And when it comes to differences, Gene is smarter than Ed and better at music. Tina is less of a brainiac than Double D is but WAY more perverted than he’ll ever WANT to be, and despite Louise usually having worse intentions than Eddy does, she ironically learns a lot more than him.

You can feel elements of Loren Bouchard's earlier work Home Movies leak into this series.

    I love their family dynamics. They're so chaotic and wholesome. Actually the kids remind me a lot of my siblings and I. For us being able to relate so much makes the show even better.

    Gene has undiagnosed adhd and has his mother's roll with anything attitude.
    Tina follows the others because she's awkward and reserved compared to her siblings' big and loud personalities, but she demonstrates on multiple occasions that she's highly intelligent.

    The belcher kids remind me of my little brother, my little cousin, and myself whenever we get together at family parties. Just a very wholesome chaotic dynamic.
    I even drew us all as the belcher kids in the “itty bitty diddy commitee” scene when Tina and Louise were playing straws 😂

    I LOVE THIS SHOW! Which is something I never thought i could ever say about any show owned by fox. But the way the humour is written and level of depth to these characters that are otherwise kind of stagnant on paper… like they don’t age for the most part, but there’s quite a few episodes where theres so much growth shown in them and they’ve absolutely captured my entire heart

  • @realsanmer
    @realsanmer Рік тому +8

    These three are my absolute favorite kid characters. The truest representation of childhood I've seen: I myself was an ungodly combo of Gene's grossness and body shaped mixed with Tina's nerdiness and social anxiety.

    Interestingly, there's also some weird ways to view them psychologically. They can be seen through a Freudian lens of Id (Gene), Ego (Louise), and Super Ego (Tina). They can be seen through a D&D lens of Chaotic (Louise), Neutral (Gene), and Lawful (Tina). I'm sure there's more examples, but my point is, the kids just portray this spectrum of behavior that reflects the human experience. While they're all their own person, they also create another, whole person when all three of them are put together. It's really great, because it makes all three of them relatable to almost anyone.

    As a teenager, I was very self conscious and insecure of what people thought of me and when I started watching Bob’s Burgers, I was so impressed by Tina. She isn’t afraid of being cringe, she’s confident enough to talk to boys she likes and would stand up to her bully while trying to be the bigger person. Even now, I have a lot to learn from her and I’m 29 years old!

    The episode 'Fingers-loose' does a nice job of showing a moment of Gene's growth, inspired by his sister Tina. At the school assembly, even though Louise suggests he do his act, he decides to sit back and let Tina shine while she does hers
    It's shown time and time again that Gene loves attention and to perform, but when his sister is the star, he lets her have her spotlight and supports her. "I'm just gonna use /these/ (his hands) to do /this/." As he claps for her. Its subtle but one of my favorite, if not my favorite Gene monent.

    I relate alot to Tina as an older sister, my sister and I are too much apart age-wise to actually be like Tina and Louise but at some times I feel like what Tina does is something I would do. Like how Tina tried to get her mom out of her show so she could run and see Louise's presentation, and seeing she would have no luck because her mom is too good to leave the leader hanging- she makes a run for it to see Louise herself so her little sister isn't alone to present her poem. And by doing so, inspier Linda to also run to her yougest

    I saw you on FDs channel today and when I heard you did commentary on cartoons, I shot over here and subscribed asap. Then when I saw you had videos on Bob's Burgers and Owl House, some of my favorite animated series, I knew I found a special place. I'm only halfway through watching this video but I just have to say how much I love your analysis of the kids and for pointing out how genuine their sibling relationship is like. Bob's Burgers is one of the best adult animated series bc of how accurate the whole family dynamic is. It reminds me of the chaos, both good and bad, in my own growing up. If you're not careful I might have to suscribe to the patreon 😂
    much love ❤

    Full connection. My family has the same birth order, similar personalities with all three of us (yes, I'm the Louise, fear me), we ran a family business together throughout when my older siblings lived at home. Bob and Linda are generally more accepting than our parents were, but mom has Linda's random obsessive chaos moments and dad has a lot of similarities to Bob.
    Definitely my number 1 comfort show. Great to hear your take on the sibling dynamics.
    Session 3 episode 3 Bob Fires the Kids was one I related to absolutely most and is one of all three of our favourite episodes.

    I think early South Park also nailed "kids being kids" a bit. It was when the kids still had innocence and through their innocence usually didn't think much of whatever was bothering the adults. Like in the episode "Chef Goes Nanners" which is still one of my favorite episodes of all time.

    In terms of humor, I like Bob's Burgers take on "dry humor." It felt weird at first, but I appreciate it now. In a time when adult cartoons basically just try to be as loud, shocking, and risque as possible, the "dry humor" of Bob's Burgers is actually something to praise.
