Don’t give up on Christmas—it won’t give up on you
The rare two-part Bob’s Burgers episode is needed to contain this madcap musical fairy tale. Linda’s hunt for her missing Christmas ornaments dovetails with the kids’ pursuit of a mythical anti-Santa: “the Bleaken.” When the Belchers discover who’s been stealing decorations around town, Linda’s initially furious—but she has a change of heart when she realizes her ornaments have helped bring Christmas spirit to those who need it the most. Also, as Tina points out, all you need to defeat the Bleaken is a “tough, badass, positive can-do attitude.” (Season eight, episodes six and seven, “The Bleakening”)
