33. “Torpedo”
(Season 1, Episode 13)
None of my friends who are Bob’s Burgers fans like first season finale “Torpedo” as much as I do, and it’s not hard to see why. It doesn’t feel like a season highlight the way other, better first year episodes do, and yet it’s as pure an example as I can find of how wonderful the show’s minor episodes can be. The story isn’t anything special, but peppered throughout are some of the funniest lines from the early episodes, including Linda’s “Ooh, a gold medal! We should get that bronzed” and Gene’s “I’m a top!”
Best moment: When Tina sums up puberty in one sentence.
