"My Big Fat Greek Bob"

"My Big Fat Greek Bob" is the 4th episode of the fourth season of the animated comedy series Bob's Burgers and the overall 49th episode, and is written by Scott Jacobson and directed by Don MacKinnon. It aired on Fox in the United States on November 10, 2013.[1] The episode's title is a parody of the film My Big Fat Greek Wedding.

Plot

After he takes a part-time job as cook at a second-rate frat house, Bob hits it off with the fraternity brothers and participates in a prank that involves their most famous alum. Meanwhile, his kids set out to invade the frat house to get in on the fun, while Linda becomes a saleslady for a sex toy company.

Reception

Critical reception

Pilot Viruet of The A.V. Club gave the episode a B+, saying "There’s an odd factor at play throughout the whole fraternity storyline, though. It turns out that Slowhands is Dr. Yap, the Belcher family dentist (voiced by Ken Jeong; it’s more than a little fitting that he’s playing a character who has overstayed his welcome in the frat house). I like Dr. Yap, though not nearly as much as Tina does, but what a weird context to bring him back in. It does work, largely because Dr. Yap has already been established as being off the rails, so it’s not surprising that he’s staged the fake kidnapping of the iguana in order steal back attention that has been given to Bob. Plus, Dr. Yap is just ridiculous enough (and gross enough, ugh, that spit keg) that he keeps the episode rolling with laughs."[2] Robert Ham of Paste gave the episode an 8.7 out of 10, saying "The subtext of this week’s episode isn’t necessary to appreciate it, mind you. Like all good subtext, you’ll only find it if you’re looking. There’s plenty of silliness right there on the surface to enjoy. Skim over the top or dig in deep; you’ll be satisfied either way."[3]

Ratings

The episode received a 1.5 rating and was watched by a total of 3.17 million people, this made it the fourth most watched show on Animation Domination losing to American Dad!, Family Guy and The Simpsons with 4.20 million.[4]
