  (#14) Tina Died When A Telephone Pole Crashed Through The Restaurant's Storefront

  According to a fan theory by Redditor geargirl, Tina was the last sibling to pass away, and she did so in the most horrific way. Tina is a lot less lighthearted and silly than her siblings, because she lived through their deaths and never dealt with it properly. She had to watch her father grieve.

  According to the theory, Tina died when a telephone pole came crashing through the restaurant's window and electrocuted her. The electrocution made her twitch long after her death, until emergency crews arrived. Bob watched the entire thing happen from his post at the grill, which is why Tina has such an obsession with zombies. He remembers her twitching body and projects this onto his hallucination of her.

  (#10) Bob Is The Only Sober Person In The Whole Show

  This theory from Redditor Djinnkj actually makes a lot of sense, which posits that Bob is the only sober person on the show. The theory is based on the fact that Bob only really seems to enjoy himself when he's drinking. Most other times, he's just sort of cranky and annoyed.

  (#13) Louise Actually Died In A Fire

  According to fans, like Redditor geargirl, Louise died shortly after Linda (oh, in this theory you have to accept that Linda is secretly dead, just roll with it). Any Bob's Burgers fan knows the youngest Belcher has a sociopathic personality, and loves lighting fires. She was eventually killed when she lit a fire she couldn't control.

  The proof is in the way Bob sees Louise. Since Bob is hallucinating his family, he makes every effort to keep Louise away from fire, failing to admit her death could have been prevented if he just did that in the first place. He even tells Tina she's the grill cook, because he can't trust "Louise" around fire.

  (#9) Tina Belcher Is Transgender

  There are theories that suggest Gene is transgender, but others think that is Tina's identity. In the Bob's Burgers unaired test pilot episode, the oldest Belcher child is male (pictured above). In a later episode, Tina alludes to the fact that you wake up one day with your assigned gender, and you don't get to choose.

  In another episode, Louise proudly says, "Lucky for you there's three of us: a boy, girl and Tina."

  Could Tina have experienced a male-to-female transition after the pilot?

  (#4) Bob Is Bisexual But Never Got A Chance To Explore His Sexuality

  Bob may be in a happy marriage with Linda, but that hasn’t stopped fans from speculating he may be bisexual. There's a whole lot of evidence to back this one up, conveniently gathered together by Redditor wastalkingaboutmyrug, but the biggest giveaway was when Bob actually admitted he was "mostly straight" (implying not all-the-way straight) in a Thanksgiving episode.

  In the episode, Bob keeps ruining the Thanksgiving turkey when he's sleepwalking. He has to therefore regularly go back to the grocery store to buy more turkeys. While he's there, a deli worker starts flirting with him and insisting that Bob doesn't need to buy the turkeys and is using it as an excuse to chat.

  Towards the end of the episode, the deli worker says he left his boyfriend, and begs Bob to run away with him. Bob says he'd consider it if he wasn't married, and admits he's "mostly straight." He ends up leaving the counter, maintaining the deli worker is so out of his league that it would never work.

  (#8) Louise's Bunny Ears Are A Nod To Marge Simpson

  One fan theory by Redditor Fatdude6 suggests Louise's bunny ears were written into the show as a nod to Marge Simpson. Originally, The Simpsons planned to air an episode where it was revealed Marge was hiding mutant rabbit ears under her hair. While the episode was scrapped, it was referenced in the arcade game, in which you can clearly see bunny ears when Marge gets electrocuted.
