Let's not drown to death this #AniMonday

I wanted to get the body mechanics right for when Linda snatches up Louise to get her to safety. My fellow animator friend Scott and his daughter were kind enough to do some #videoref for me. Always thankful to have such talented actors to help when I need it.

THIS POST WILL CONTAIN SPOILERS FOR THE NEWEST BOB'S BURGERS EPISODE JADE IN THE SHADE‼️‼️ DO NOT CONTINUE TO READ IF YOU HAVEN'T SEEN IT OR DON'T WANT SPOILERS

I normally don't post thoughts on here about specific episodes but this episode was genuinely so good that I need to talk about it.

First: some smaller details that I really like that aren't super big to the story

- this episode proves my theory that there are ways to give Louise an outfit that fits the triangle shape language without it being a dress. She is so cute in that outfit and I absolutely love her little boots

- the facial expressions and body language are so good, I absolutely love how they are adding more simple body language things to episodes recently to add more character. Examples:

- just louise's little bounces are so cute and Linda desperately trying to grab Louise cause she's scared about her kid idk it's just so good to me 😭

- also per usual the side plot was sweet, I absolutely love that moment where the tube guy has a light behind him like he was Jesus it was so funny to me 😭😭

- this is like the first time an episode has heavily referenced past happenings before. Like they constantly Talk about the movie AND they're in the hotel they were at for that Halloween episode in I think season 10. I absolutely love that they talked about the movie

Now for more character driven moments that make me explode:

- smaller character moment but MR. FISCHOEDER ACTUALLY GIVING LOUISE MONEY IS SO SWEET LIKE HE ACTUALLY CARES ABOUT THIS FAMILY AND IS WILLING TO GIVE LOUISE SOME MONEY 😭😭😭😭😭 genuinely so good I absolutely love them 😭😭

- Logan's mom being really clingy actually explains a lot with Logan, and I know that they have done things like this in the past but I don't think it was as blatantly obvious. It's really good characterization for Logan and actually made me feel for Logan. LOGAN.

- Louise finally said the quiet part out loud where she doesn't think she's a kid. Like I'm pretty positive she's never said she doesn't think she's a child out loud before which is probably one of the best cases of show don't tell I've seen in a while, and now her saying she's not a kid feels natural.

- I love how Linda was taking care of one of her kids without being completely overbearing like she is with Gene and sometimes Tina. She's showing growth as a mother and starting to undo the trauma she went through as a kid

- this is my favorite part of the episode and the most blatant sign of character growth, BUT THE FACT THAT LOUISE ACTUALLY KEPT THE MONEY INSTEAD OF IMMEDIATELY SPENDING IT ALMOST BROKE ME. I was not expecting her to keep it and my immediate thought when it cuts to her hanging something up on her was like she bought the newspaper clip from the hotel or a copy of it to hang on her wall, but it cutting to the money was one of the best ways of subverting character expectations I have seen. This is probably my favorite character arc I've seen Louise go through and it's not even the biggest one 😭 AND LOOK AT HER FACE WHEN SHE HANGS IT UP TOO IM ILL 😭😭

Anyways, I hope y'all like my ramblings about the new episode, I'm thinking about doing something like his for every new episode this season cause I will most definitely need to rant and this is the best way I can think of without bombarding my friends with my thoughts. 😭

I'm really amused by the fact that both of the past two seasons of "Bob's Burgers" have had an end credits sequence featuring Louise dancing the Charleston. I mean, it's adorable and I love old jazz music, so I'm not complaining, but it's just funny that they went a dozen years without having Louise dance the Charleston in the end credits (as far as I can recall) and now it's an annual thing.

I love Logan. He always slays me, so I'm celebrating with silly memes. I feel like I need more Logan memes in my life.

Bug Truck/Store Next Door Running Gags: Season 14, Episode 12 - “Jade in the Shade” (Air Date: March 10, 2024)

[ltwharfy]

Last night's episode is the most I've ever empathized with Logan. Hanging out with your mom when you are a teenage boy can be the MOST embarrassing thing in the world. And it's probably even worse if your mom's Cynthia.

I love the way the "Bob's Burgers" writers can make me empathize with characters I thought I never would (see also Hugo in "Romancing the Beef" or Jimmy Pesto in "Prank You For Being A Friend").

“See? That’s why you don’t need a girlfriend, Logan.”

All of Cynthia’s finest moments embarrassing her son in Jade in the Shade
