(#2) Bed, Bob & Beyond
- February 10, 2019
In "Bed, Bob & Beyond," Bob and Linda take the kids out to see a movie but end up getting into a fight with the kids along to see it all go down. The couple isn't able to easily get over it, and the kids take notice.
In an effort to help their parents reconcile, the children tell them how they thought the movie would have ended, had they stayed long enough to see it through to the end, and the film's circuitous storyline helps bring the couple back into marital bliss.
Why it falls short: The episode plays out rather well despite its low rating on IMDb. Fans may not have appreciated how it both was and wasn't a bottle episode, which can put some viewers off due to the change in story structure from one week to the next.

(#4) P.T.A. It Ain't So
- May 5, 2019
"P.T.A. It Ain't So" is primarily about Linda's determination to become more involved with the P.T.A. To do this, she attempts to get closer to the president of the organization, a mother named Joanne. As she gets closer to the woman, she realizes she's not as perfect as she seems on the outside.
Meanwhile, Bob is trying to cheer up a local pet store owner after he insulted the owner's parrot, who flew away. In an attempt to replace the parrot, Bob only makes matters worse, and things devolve from there.
Why it falls short: The episode comes across as formulaic, and while it attempts to bring more attention to Linda, it falls short in exploring the character beyond the familiar "mom wants to do more in the P.T.A.' trope, which is common in American sitcoms.

(#14) Long Time Listener, First Time Bob
- April 7, 2019
During an evening of bowling with the family, Bob meets a longtime hero of his in the form of a DJ he listened to as a kid. The man is now working in the bowling alley, which pushes Bob and the kids to help the man out professionally.
They attempt to get him back on the radio, but when the DJ takes matters into his own hand, things get crazy. Meanwhile, Linda attempts to introduce sweet potato fried to the menu at the restaurant, but after Bob rejects the idea, she's left with a ton of 'taters and nothing to do with them.
Why it falls short: "Long Time Listener, First Time Bob" is a Bob-heavy episode, and despite being an interesting look at who he was in his youth, some viewers may have balked at the episode for containing less about the family than others.

(#13) Sexy Dance Fighting
- Sep 11 2011
Tina joins a new martial arts class in town and doesn't do what's expected of her at the restaurant. This makes Bob more than a little annoyed, so he investigates to learn exactly what's going on with his daughter.
He quickly finds out that the reason she's been shirking her responsibilities at the restaurant has less to do with her interest in martial arts, and everything to do with the new teacher in town.
Why it falls short: The episode did a good job of expanding on Tina, as this was an early entry in the series. Some parts of the episode felt a bit formulaic, and for people who aren't fans of Tina as a character, they might have been less interested in seeing this episode more than once.

(#5) The Hawkening: Look Who's Hawking Now!
- November 10, 2019
"The Hawkening: Look Who's Hawking Now!" starts off with Bob and Louise' excitement over a watch party they're hosting for a screening of the new Hawk & Chick movie.
The screening was set to go down at the restaurant, but when the actor who plays Hawk throws a wrench in the works, it turns out he had his own strange and mysterious reasons...
Why it falls short: "The Hawkening: Look Who's Hawking Now!" is something of a callback to an episode from season five called "Hawk & Chick."
The episode isn't terrible, but it stands as the third-lowest-rated one from the series. Some complaints online pointed out that the two stories seemed split, making for only a short period of overlap. Other than that, the dialogue was well-written, and the series' hilarious tone was definitely on point.

(#10) Drumforgiven
- January 12, 2020
In "Drumforgiven," Gene gets himself banned from his favorite music shop, the Ocean Avenue Hifi Emporium. He doesn't take the ban well, as the young lad likes to make all kinds of funky noises — guess how he earned a ban.
Louise and Tina get some friends together to get some payback for Gene, but it backfires, and things go from bad to horse. Meanwhile, Teddy has taken a job at Jimmy Pesto's, Bob's rival restaurant, and tries to keep it a secret from him out of guilt.
Why it falls short: This episode features the kids more than the adults, and some fans may not appreciate their level of humor on the series. That's too bad because the episode isn't poorly written or put together, it may have been a bit too Gene-heavy for the average fan.
