A noteworthy milestone is reached with the 300th episode of the well-known animated series Bob's Burgers. At the 2025 San Diego Comic-Con, the show's creator, Loren Bouchard, gave out information about this special episode and upcoming holiday-themed episodes. As per Variety, he said:

“In the present day Bob is really sweating whether or not to raise prices, and it’s killing him. “It sends us on this kind of series of flashbacks to just what was going on when Bob and Linda started the restaurant.”

The title for the 300th episode is "Grand Pre-Pre-Opening." It follows Bob as he considers raising the pricing at the family eatery. This produces a series of flashbacks to Bob and Linda's early years together, and during all these flashbacks, viewers will see Bob dealing with the stress of managing the kitchen. They will also see Linda preparing to give birth, and this episode deepens viewers' understanding of the Belcher family's roots.

This is mainly done by combining more melancholy moments with the show's traditional humor. In addition to the anniversary episode, there are two special Christmas episodes planned, and the Halloween special's main character is Teddy. He is the Belchers' devoted handyman who takes a job at an odd shop next door, and in this particular episode, British comedian Jamie Demetriou, who appeared in Fleabag and Stath Lets Flats, makes a cameo appearance.

The business turns out to be a cult establishment, and in the Christmas special, the family visits a festive holiday town where Teddy is the preacher at Linda's sister Gail's odd wedding, which she prepares as part of an art piece.

At the San Diego Comic-Con, Bouchard was accompanied by the primary voice cast. This mainly included Larry Murphy (Teddy), Dan Mintz (Tina), Kristen Schaal (Louise), Eugene Mirman (Gene), John Roberts (Linda), and H. Jon Benjamin (Bob). As he talked about his unusual experience of producing 300 episodes over 15 years, Bouchard emphasized the series' continued appeal to audiences.

The Bob's Burgers crew is highlighting the show's creative side with the new episodes in anticipation of the upcoming publication of The Art of Bob's Burgers and this book mainly describes the series' artwork. It shows all their creative process and will be available on September 23. Additionally, fans may anticipate more aprons, recipe cards, and show-inspired stuff.

Since its debut in 2011, Bob's Burgers has developed a devoted fan base due to its sympathetic characters and innovative narrative, and with its 300th episode and new holiday specials, the series continues to provide fresh and engaging content.

While the start date for Season 16 has yet to be confirmed, fans are ready for more adventures from the Belcher family.
