List of episodes

The twelfth season of the American animated television series Bob's Burgers debuted on Fox on September 26, 2021 and is scheduled to end on May 15, 2022.

Production[]

Despite being the twelfth broadcast season, the season so far has mostly been comprised of episodes from the eleventh production cycle. Production of these episodes was minimally affected by lockdowns during the COVID-19 pandemic as some voice actors recorded parts from their homes in April 2020.[1][2][3]

In December 2021, it was reported that Jay Johnston had been "banned" from his recurring role as Jimmy Pesto.[4]
