From Teddy’s golf-ball gag to Linda’s antics, we asked the Bob’s Burgers cast to share the scenes that have them cracking up the most after 16 seasons.

I’m a pop-culture writer covering everything from TV and movies, to music, Broadway, books, and games.

While at New York Comic Con, I had the opportunity to reunite with Larry Murphy (Teddy), John Roberts (Linda), Dan Mintz (Tina), Eugene Mirman (Gene), H. Jon Benjamin (Bob), Kristen Schaal (Louise), and creator Loren Bouchard. Sitting around a table in the press room, laughing with the cast of one of my favorite animated shows, was truly one of those pinch-me moments.

One behind-the-scenes aspect of group interviews: With seven people on the recording, it can sometimes be tricky to figure out who said what. But with the Bob's Burgers cast, that's never a problem. I can simply close my eyes and recognize their voices from hundreds of episodes.

They're truly a delightful bunch, both on TV and in real life, and in our 10-minute chat, we revisited some of the moments that continue to crack them up, even after 16 seasons.

Note: This interview has been edited for length and clarity.

Loren (Creator): Oh, I have one. It's Teddy diving for golf balls and gagging every time he puts the hose in his mouth. It's Teddy's idea, but he just keeps gagging, and that makes me laugh every time.

Larry (Teddy): That's right — I practically made myself throw up while I was doing that. You just reminded me of that scene. That's a really good one.

H. Jon (Bob): I laugh really hard at the baseball game when Gene doesn't remember "Bob's Burgers" and Bob is screaming in the background, like, "Say the name!"

Larry (Teddy): I'm thinking of the "Bed & Breakfast" episode, when Teddy takes over Louise's room. There are a couple of funny Kristen outtakes where she's like, "Get the f*** out of my room!"

John (Linda): Yes, the B&B! The cheese is getting sweaty!

Eugene (Gene): For me, it's the scene where we're all in the bathroom, and Louise is making Gene look like Bob. Then the whole family comes in, and we're all sort of shouting over each other. It's so impassioned, and it always makes me laugh.

John (Linda): (Laughs) It's love it how Linda poops everywhere. She's not shy. She's always pooping in public.

Loren (Creator): Yes! She even gets arrested for it.

Kristen (Louise): I always like it when Teddy is thinking that maybe he could take over for Bob and be a good husband to Linda.

John (Linda): Yeah, Linda and Teddy have like a secret little thing going on. Linda likes the attention!

Dan (Tina): I like our scenes with Brian Huskey. He's one of my favorites.

John (Linda): Most likely for a spinoff, little Rudy!

Loren (Creator): Even for those of us who've been doing this our whole lives, it's hard to comprehend that an episode — 20 minutes of television — might take a year to make. It takes that long because of the way the system works.

We're working in bulk, so we're writing and recording episodes, then sending them off to be animated. We get them back and polish them in post-production.

What's nice about that, and what people might not know, is that we take advantage of that time. When we get an episode back, we have a couple of opportunities to rewrite it. I think that's where the show can go from an okay episode to the best version of itself, because we catch things we wouldn't have caught if we were rushing.

If we were working on a live-action show, where you have to shoot it, edit it, and get it on the air, you don't really have the opportunity to redo parts of an episode.

Kristen (Louise): The quality. The writing is so good. I'm so excited about these episodes that are coming in the spring. I watch it with my eight-year-old, and we've been revisiting all the seasons. It's never disappointing, and the characters are always so colorful.

Larry (Teddy): Speaking of quality, there are moments when I'll be like, "Wow! A lot of time and effort went into the lyrics for this music." It might only be a few lines, but it'll be super catchy.

H. Jon (Bob): Music has become a bigger and bigger part, and a creative aspect of the show was letting stuff like that happen. That's part of how the show works so well, because we take ideas and build on them.

Dan (Tina): I think a lot of times when a show that you like starts getting worse, it's because all the original writers have left. But there has just been so little turnover in the writing staff.

Eugene (Gene): I saw an interview with Loren where he described it as a band that loves putting out music. I think that's definitely true. We've all known each other for a decade longer than Bob's Burgers has existed, and many of the staff are still the same. We've all sort of been together for decades working on this, and it's simply a joy. We love it.

H. Jon (Bob): And most importantly, Loren still loves it. That's really what matters. I think the show's ethos doesn't change, and that's a testament to Loren Bouchard and everyone who runs it, like Holly Schlesinger and Nora Smith, who keep the tone consistent.

John (Linda): Ethos! Good word. I just wanted to say the word 'ethos.'

H. Jon (Bob): The coordination between the writers, the showrunners, Loren in particular, and the animators — how it all ties together to maintain that consistent tone and keep the show funny and warm at the same time — I think that's what gives it its life.
