Trivia
To 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.

Goofs
Episode 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.

Quotes
Bob Belcher: Oh my God.

Crazy credits
In the opening sequence for most episodes, the building to the right of Bob's restaurant changes every episode.

Bob's Burgers is a refreshing change of pace.

I am an avid fan of animated television, and have a massive appreciation for MacFarlane's Family Guy, American Dad and The Cleveland Show. And also The Simpsons and Futurama. While Groening and MacFarlane are cartoon tycoons currently dominating animated programming, Bob's Burgers is a pleasing, utterly enjoyable change.

The pace and rapport of all the characters is one that is rare in any other cartoons. This pace is further backed up by the exceptional vocal performances and direction. Bob's monotonous exasperation at his children's outbursts is just hilarious. The script and dialogue of Tina, Gene and Louise is superb. Tina's voice, personally, I find extremely funny. The humour of a situation slowly evading Bob, mainly, is well accommodated by the episode lengths.

I haven't laughed so hard at a comedy since that seen in The US Office where they all start singing staying alive by the bee gees to keep the beat for CPR of the practice dummy.
