“You can’t spell Christmas without us”
One of the strongest Bob’s Burgers Christmas episodes to date treads some familiar thematic ground—reiterating the importance of family, including found families in this case. But the episode also swerves into strange new territory when Bob’s pulled into Mr. Fischoeder’s annual gingerbread-building contest (featuring his rich, eccentric cronies), and Linda, Teddy, and the kids dare to go caroling at the spookiest house on the block. While nothing turns out as expected—the horror-inspired episode title proves an apt choice—it all ends up in the most (literally) warm and fuzzy way imaginable. (Season seven, episode seven, “The Last Gingerbread House on the Left”)
