Bob's Burgers: Some Kind of Fender Benderful (2021)
Season 11, Episode 18
Very disappointing episode..the song was the best part
21 April 2021
This episode was very...off. It wasn't particularly funny, even though I had high hopes since it was focused on Bob. Based on the description, I was expecting something more farcical similar to Tina-rannosaurus Wrecks, but nothing in the episode was even close to that level of writing. Before I knew it, the episode was over and I was left very unsatisfied. It felt like a complete filler episode so that with everything going on last year, they had something to submit.

I'm also very tired of Teddy. Teddy has not been funny to me for seasons, and while this wasn't his worst episode, I'm just tired of his presence. He's basically foisted on Bob and crew. I wish there was more Mort since he's literally next door and the Fishoeders (I get that it's maybe a scheduling thing) or Mickey or Bosco or any other character.

This season has been a mixed bag. Too many episodes around bodily functions and gross jokes for a show that has crisp writing when they leave that junk out and try. I have only enjoyed maybe four episodes of this season, so the show might be losing me. Even accounting for the halt/slow down/change in production methods for last year's quarantine, Bob's Burgers is better than this episode and a few others this season.
