- TriviaTo pitch the show to the Fox network, the creators made a rough three minute demo of the scene where Bob and Linda are grinding meat and Bob forgets their wedding anniversary. The differences between the demo and the scene later used on the actual show included very different character designs by Jay Howell, cruder animation, and the Belchers were a family of cannibals, making burgers out of the flesh of their victims. However, Fox found the idea of cannibalism too dark for an animated sitcom so it was taken out. However, this led to the plot of the first episode where the family is accused by the health inspectors of being cannibals.
- GoofsEpisode after Episode where the basement is viewed, Cans of Tomatoes are on the rack.
Can Tomatoes are only good for meals such as Pizzas, Lasagnas, Soups,.. not in a hamburger and fries, may be a side salad restaurant. And no, the wall menu does not offer soup.
Canned Tomatoes are soft, mushy unlike firm, fresh tomatoes on a hamburger (or salad.)
Meaning, Canned Tomatoes have no function in a hamburger place.
Edit: Several times throughout the show soup is mentioned as being available. Specifically Mort is the one who usually orders the soup.

Featured review
I used to actively communicate to others that this show sucked. I hadn't even watched one full episode! I've seen every episode of family guy, futurama, and American dad many many times and I was getting bored of reruns. I saw this on demand and thought I might as well give it a try. I put on the first episode and was like
"Yup it's crap just like I remembered, but I can't take seeing more reruns so I'll just leave it on in the background while I scroll online"
A few episodes later I was hooked. Some people don't like the simplicity of the animation but that's what makes it unique. I love the hand drawn look. I used to hate that all the characters "sounded the same" I used to say. Now I think it's funny that they have masculine sounding voices.
Bobs characters is truly amazing and Lynn is so lovable. The kids are absolutely hilarious I will admit sometimes Gene try's too hard to make jokes but that's just the way gene is. He's always being a jokester. My favourite is Louise and Tina. I like the socially awkward Tina and the mature witty yet childlike Louise. These characters all have such depth that you really don't see in other cartoons. I really like that. I very much dislike teddy. The names of characters are also hilarious. Fish odour omg love it. I say watch one season before you give up on this one. It takes time to get to know the amazing characters. It took me a while to come around.
