EW has the skinny on Jon Hamm’s role in this upcoming season of Bob’s Burgers: a talking toilet.
The show’s creator Loren Bouchard told EW:
“It’s a kind of E.T. homage, but instead of an alien, it’s this high-end talking electronic toilet that falls off a truck and lands in the woods,” says Bouchard. “And Gene [Eugene Mirman] finds it, E.T.-style. It’s kind of a love story between a boy and a toilet.”
My mind cannot comprehend the absolute fabulousness of this. A love story between a boy and a toilet, voiced by Eugene Mirman and Jon Hamm.
Eugene “Gene Belcher” Mirman, as the boy

(Sorry for the hyperbole, but this is some seriously awesome stuff here, folks)
Add to that another episode with Zach Galifianakis wherein
“He plays this guy who believes he used to be a mannequin,” Bouchard says. “It’s a Christmas episode that’s kind of a very strange take on, like, A Christmas Story meets Mannequin.”
AND guest appearances by Nick “Ron Swanson” Offerman, Bob “Better Call Saul” Odenkirk, Jeffrey “George Bluth Sr.” Tambor, and Will “The Falconer” Forte…I cannot wait for the new season which starts on September 30.
This all sounds amazing. Can’t wait! We’ve been watching the previous seasons on Netflix.
When I see a Jon Hamm or BB-related post on Vulture, I’m kinda doing a countdown in my head to see a post pop up here… 🙂
Well, I HAVE TO add my own spin to these sorts of things now don’t I? It’s sort of a cosmic rule.
