In On the Fort Day of Christmas, a record-breaking Christmas snowstorm means one thing to the Belcher kids — a record-breaking Christmas snow fort.
Bob’s Burgers centers on the working-class Belcher family — parents Bob and Linda and their children, Tina, Gene and Louise — who run a seaside New Jersey hamburger restaurant and interact with the eccentric members of their community. The voice cast includes H. Jon Benjamin, John Roberts, Dan Mintz, Eugene Mirman, Kristen Schaal and Larry Murphy.
The series premiered on FOX on January 9, 2011, and drew 9.39 million viewers, making it the highest-rated new series premiere of the season. Bob’s Burgers has been renewed through Season 19, covering the 2028-2029 season; Season 17 returns to FOX in 2027 and will stream on Hulu and Hulu on Disney+ for bundle subscribers in the U.S.
