I actually bucked down last night and watched a full episode of Bob's Burgers. Long story short, I watched The Simpsons for the first time in a year, needed something to do during the half hour between Simpsons and Family Guy, so I decided the option that required the least amount of work was to just keep the TV on.
I'll repeat my earlier statement when the show first premiered: it just isn't funny. I wouldn't say it's particularly awful or painful to watch, it just doesn't make me laugh. I'm sitting there I'm waiting for a joke, wanting to laugh, but nothing happens. The only time I did laugh during that half hour was during a commercial break when they had a tie-in commercial with the movie Rio, in which a character from Rio says something like "Bob's Burgers is loosely funny, but [something I can't remember] is much better." Pretty sad that even its own sponsors are slagging the show.
