21 Episodes 2014 - 2015
Season 5 of this animated sitcom about the goings-on at a family-run hamburger joint is still cooking up plenty of fun. Among the highlights: Gene enters a musical based on "Die Hard" as the school's fall play, but he gets shot down. Also, Tina becomes romantically involved with a spirit who resides in the Belchers' basement; and Bob boycotts Thanksgiving, but that doesn't keep Linda and the kids from attending a Fischoeder-sponsored holiday festival, where a wild bird runs a-fowl and causes pandemonium among the attendees. At a family Christmas party, Bob and his father, "Big Bob", revisit an old argument, which leads to a can-you-top-this competition in the kitchen; and Tina, Gene and Louise sign up for a go-kart league, while Bob and Teddy begin pouring Teddy's home-brewed beer on the sly at the restaurant.
