“We can’t help but love the Belcher family. This gem of a series is a rare feel-good blend of sharp wit and genuine heart that fans and critics alike have continued to love throughout its five seasons on Fox,” Walden and Newman said in a joint statement. “We are proud of Loren and Jim and the extremely talented voice cast who bring these unique characters to life with both humor and charm each week. We can’t wait to see what they have in store for season six.”

Bob’s Burgers centers on the Belcher family who run a hamburger restaurant on Ocean Avenue in a seaside community.
Bob’s Burgers initially received mixed reviews, with a Metacritic score of 54 out of 100. The Washington Post described the show as “pointlessly vulgar and derivatively dull”. However, as Season 1 progressed and concluded and Season 2 began, critics began giving the series praise. Rowan Kaiser of The A.V. Club has recalled, “…the show was amusing, yes, and there was certainly potential, but it took half a dozen episodes before it really began to meet that potential.” Season 2 has a Metacritic score of 78 out 100.
