10 Things You Learn Rewatching Bob's Burgers

10. The Continuity Is Amazing

Generally, for the sake of convenience, cartoons do not have any sense of continuity. For example, a character can be involved in a dangerous stunt that would usually leave them severely injured for years afterwards, but the whole debacle is otherwise forgotten in the very next episode.

And yes, whilst Bob's Burgers tends to follow an episodic narrative that you can dip in and out of, it's the subtle details that give it a sense of fluidity. The best example is Bob's half done equestranaut tattoo which can visibly seen every time his back is bare.

But there are other instances of a small change or a characteristic in the Belchers lives remaining permanent, whether it's the modernised restaurant bathroom, the dented ice cream machine caused by the mechanical shark, Teddy never knowing where to sign a bit of paper or Louise frequently carrying her own chalk.
