The only funny animated show left on Fox.

And, it's amusing that the two best animated shows on television (Bob's Burgers and Archer) both star H. Jon Benjamin.

I love this show to bits. H. Jon Benjamin will be my comedy slave when I rule the world.

+1 for fucking love Bob's Burgers. So glad (and surprised) it's gotten as long of a run as it has.

I love this show so much. Which can only mean it will soon be canceled. Kristen Schaal and Eugene Mirman are fucking fantastic.

Favorite show on t.v. right now. H. Jon Benjamin is the best.

What everyone else said. Amazing cast, and it lacks the self-awareness that make all the other Fox comedies really tiring to watch (I still love you Simpsons, but just enough to keep trying...).

Plus, my friend Jay did the character design (is a character designer considered a name drop?), which warms my cockles to no end.

H Jon Benjamin and Kristen Schaal doing the voices of two of the main characters? I am intrigued...

I like Bob's Burgers but @10 has a point. Maybe Bob's Burgers is the best show on broadcast television.

Also in the running for best show: Venture Bros. (H. Jon Benjamin has a recurring bit part).

I make sure my kids don't miss a show.

(Adventure Time and Regular Show are good, too)

There's a few old Aqua Teen's that HJB really steals as well.

I really like the character design in this show. The toothless way everyone is drawn makes them seem like hilarious animated muppets.
