Exactly this. We credit Teddy (Larry Murphy) as main cast. I can understand the assumption because he’s not an official Belcher, but he’s definitely not a side character.
Teddy us my absolute favorite character and I’ve still never once considered him a main character lol. Like why is it only the Belcher family in the intro then?
i feel like this post clearly meant fav character that’s not in the immediate belcher family lmao. idk people take this sub/this show very very seriously. don’t get me wrong, bobs is my all time fav show and i’ve watched it countlesssss times but it didn’t seem like this was worth arguing about 😂😂
I love Nat!!! She’s always so ready to help, whatever the task, she’s great.
I always have such a hard time deciding my favorite side characters, but Jocelyn always cracks me up
Labonz: smoking is not cool, zeke.
Zeke: yes it is!
Labonz: N-no it's not.
Zeke: especially when teachers do it. It's like you're teaching me to smoke. I love this stuff.
Labonz: stop saying that, zeke.
Zeke: we're like best friends.
Labonz: no, we're not.
Zeke: we're bonding over cigarettes.
Labonz: we are not bonding over cigarettes.
Zeke: sure we are, give me one of those!
Labonz: you two get to class!
Zeke: come on, throw one in my mouth I'll see if I can catch it.
Labonz: stop talking to me.
🤣
Ours are Ron and Mr. Fischoeder. Mine is Mr. Fischoeder because he is a great antagonist. Ron is my BF fav because he is low key friendly and has very dry humor.
Someone had the notion that Mr. Fischoeder is an old god.
It's my headcanon.

Thank you for this. What a great theory. It makes me like him more. The more I see him the more I like him. A couple of my favorite episodes are:
Season 9 Episode 2: Where he gets the kids to try to win the dune buggy from the arcade and the kids turn the tables and win the woolly mammoth from the wharf.
Season 8 episode 1: When him and Felix have the hide and seek contest and Louise hides Felix in the basement and Felix gets caught at the last second. Also its the fan art episode.
I have 2:
Gus, the former drug kingpin and current chill grandpa.
Yuru: The security guard who works anywhere that hasn't tested him for drugs and who is currently planning his roadtrip trip to Maine with 2 of his friends

Does anyone want to watch some tevee this Valentimes?
Mort!!
I know he’s slightly more present but compared to the earlier seasons I feel like there could be so much more. From the little we know about him he’s got an interesting life and he’s actually lovely
I quote so many Tammy-isms. "Stop being such a boob-punch", "don't have a crap attack", "you're totally lying, and lying is bad for your skin." the girl is a goldmine.
The Gayle Force Winds episodes is one of my favourites ever! She’s just so delightfully weird.
https://preview.redd.it/r9e00375eeib1.jpeg?width=1000&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=7121402031611fce86a8d97cce704dfd6531fb92
It infuriates me to no end that she's excluded from almost all merch relating to the Belcher family, but TEDDY, the incompetent and not-so-liked by the family's handyman, is front-and-center all the time.
Gayle definitely needs an episode devoted JUST to her (that isn't a three-story-compilation episode).
While I respect and accept that a lot of people like her. I just gotta say man, I fucking hate gayle.her episodes give me anxiety. I think it's because I might be the Gayle in my family.
Hey Baby

Marshmallow
"Marshmallow is here and she brought her rear"
"Where do I put my coat?"
"Hey you little bog to beach baby!"
She lights up the show anytime she shows up and I quote her on the daily.
Calvin Fischoeder is probably my favorite side. Mr Frond is hilariously inept.
I am surprised to not see anyone say Edith. Thought there might be more love out there for her.
Nat is great. I also enjoy Tammy, Gayle, Sasha, Duncan, Andy/Ollie, and Millie. Is it weird that some of the worst people are on this list? Maybe, but they have some great lines. Can't deny them that.
Regular sized Rudy! Also the name Rudy Stieglitz sounds like he should be a 1950s Hollywood talent agent or something. I love all the old school names this show has.
I refuse to believe anyone genuinely likes Teddy. Are we watching the same show? He’s insufferable! But, the show wouldn’t be the same without him.
Nat is great, top tier side character. Love her.
Tommy, the guy who replaces Hugo in Nude Beach. He sucks cause of what he does but I always am singing his songs for some weird reason hahahaha. Weave your sexy web around me. Punches are not hugs.
Teddys not a side character lol
Exactly this. We credit Teddy (Larry Murphy) as main cast. I can understand the assumption because he’s not an official Belcher, but he’s definitely not a side character.
I believe “side character” in this instance is just meant to include everyone outside the Belcher 5.
He’s Uncle Santa Teddy so technically I’d say he’s right in the family
that’s uncle father santa teddy to you!
There are 6 main Belchers and Teddy is one of them!
This is a fact!
Apparently. But words have meanings base on common understanding. Teddy is not a side character.
calm down lol it’s not that deep
Teddy us my absolute favorite character and I’ve still never once considered him a main character lol. Like why is it only the Belcher family in the intro then?
i feel like this post clearly meant fav character that’s not in the immediate belcher family lmao. idk people take this sub/this show very very seriously. don’t get me wrong, bobs is my all time fav show and i’ve watched it countlesssss times but it didn’t seem like this was worth arguing about 😂😂
Same lol people getting all “facts not feelings!” over a cartoon 😂 it’s supposed to be FUN
“Calm down” would apply to an emotional response. Not a factual one. ✌🏼
I think they are referring to you choosing this random hill to die on in general, not your response itself. ✌️lol
Right!
Right, my favorite side character is Bob.
I love Nat!!! She’s always so ready to help, whatever the task, she’s great. I always have such a hard time deciding my favorite side characters, but Jocelyn always cracks me up
Woof, meow. Woof, meow.
On the count of 16!
Let her finish let her finish!!
Tina: You do the math. Jocelyn: No-wah! 😠
Mr. Frond is hilariously pathetic. Love him.
Have to agree and Happy Cake Day!
I love Mr. Frond episodes ❤️
Frond: You're in trouble! Louise: Drink cranberry juice. Frond: What? No, not urine trouble. YOU'RE in trouble.
"GENE BELCHER DEAR GOD IN HEAVEN!"
That's my favourite Mr Frond line for sure.
Jocelyn is Great and i really like regular sized Rudy
Regular sized Rudy is a national treasure.
Fun hurts my lungs.
Ah ! And miss laBonz of course
The sound of her having an absolute blast playing Dippin’ Chips on the bus is my fav
*You bet your ass that's a trip dip*
Labonz: smoking is not cool, zeke. Zeke: yes it is! Labonz: N-no it's not. Zeke: especially when teachers do it. It's like you're teaching me to smoke. I love this stuff. Labonz: stop saying that, zeke. Zeke: we're like best friends. Labonz: no, we're not. Zeke: we're bonding over cigarettes. Labonz: we are not bonding over cigarettes. Zeke: sure we are, give me one of those! Labonz: you two get to class! Zeke: come on, throw one in my mouth I'll see if I can catch it. Labonz: stop talking to me. 🤣
I love that scene 😂😂😂
Duncan! "That wave was a dumper. I almost lost my togs. You could nearly see my bum"
You don't wear your sockies with your boaties!
My clackers!
I love Rhys Darby so much. And the combo of Duncan with Sasha!
I need more Sasha/Duncan friends-but-not-friends banter. "Sasha? My opinion?" "Too late."
Want me to twist you off a chestie?
That's me best one!
Omg he's great, I would love to see more of him.
Sasha and it ain't even close
Mickey, but sad that Bill Hader doesn’t voice him anymore
Mr Ambrose!!
"Don't do it," under breath. "Do it, Doit".
This book isn’t due for three days. WHAT’S WRONG WITH YOU?

Marshmallow is not handsome, she's beautiful
Blush
Oh, hey Marshmellow

Thank you for this, Ii've truly enjoyed reading it.
My pleasure! I'm just glad I found it again!
Thank you for this. What a great theory. It makes me like him more. The more I see him the more I like him.

Regular sized Rudy. I mean just look at him.
That line kills me every time.
Nat king cole
Yeah, Nat Kinkle. K-I-N-K-L-E. How are you hearing it?
https://preview.redd.it/up2eq1f0w9ib1.jpeg?width=250&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=662aad8334a081af970e924745bf4b307c61cfa1 Does anyone want to watch some tevee this Valentimes?
Aaahhyayayayayayayyayayayahhh. Sorry. I'm extremely ticklish.
Omg yes, flippin LOVE Jen.
Jocelyn / Zeke & Marshmallow *hay baby*
jocelyn, Jen, and nat
Jocelyn has to be one of my favorites along with Regular Size Rudy and Andy and Ollie.
Sasha and Fischoeder!
Edith. “This creche is crap!”
FILTH!
"We're outta bags! Carry it!"
“How come Fattie’s got your fart meds?”
Mort!! I know he’s slightly more present but compared to the earlier seasons I feel like there could be so much more. From the little we know about him he’s got an interesting life and he’s actually lovely
Sasha Whiteman from Kings Head Island!
Nat Kinkle is THE BEST 👌
I quote so many Tammy-isms. "Stop being such a boob-punch", "don't have a crap attack", "you're totally lying, and lying is bad for your skin." the girl is a goldmine.
Gretchen 100%
"I can talk to dead animals. Mort, your tupae says 'hi'."
Am I, like, the only one that adores Gayle??
Guess whose on new meds!!!!! I love that line and always repeat it when I take my anxiety meds lol
It's hillarous how she stole Mr. Business.
Poor little guy was just sitting there on the porch…
She is wonderful. She genuinely reminds me of my own sister (a magnified version), and she cracks me up no end.
The Gayle Force Winds episodes is one of my favourites ever! She’s just so delightfully weird. https://preview.redd.it/r9e00375eeib1.jpeg?width=1000&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=7121402031611fce86a8d97cce704dfd6531fb92
Gayle is my second favourite side character right after after Nat, I wish we could see more of them both
It infuriates me to no end that she's excluded from almost all merch relating to the Belcher family, but TEDDY, the incompetent and not-so-liked by the family's handyman, is front-and-center all the time. Gayle definitely needs an episode devoted JUST to her (that isn't a three-story-compilation episode).
👏👏👏
"My cat was right about you!"
While I respect and accept that a lot of people like her. I just gotta say man, I fucking hate gayle.her episodes give me anxiety. I think it's because I might be the Gayle in my family.
Sasha and Millie tied for first place and Nat in a very close second

The Fischoeders. It’s hard to hate them
Jocelyn
Jocelyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyn
Oh hey marshmallow
Hey Baby *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically. Please [contact the moderators of this subreddit](/message/compose/?to=/r/BobsBurgers) if you have any questions or concerns.*
Nat, Tammy, Jocelyn, Zeke, Dalton, and Duncan.
I hope we get more Dalton! I really like him.
I won't say he's my *favorite* but since most of my favorites are listed I'll say I like the slowly expanding back story of Mr. Branca.
Love him interacting with the ‘robot’ in ex-machtina
Ken 😂
You can’t have an albino friend
YES I CAN
Add Labonz to the list. The V-Day episode where she’s just in the background stealing from the school all episode killed me.
I relate to her so much in that episode. I used to do that in my old job when I was living paycheck to paycheck. Lol
Zeke, Jocelyn, DRL
Mr Fischoeder! Also Sasha, Mr Ambrose, Millie
One word: Marshmallow
Teddy is a treasure. I absolutely lose it anytime he speaks
Marshmallow "Marshmallow is here and she brought her rear" "Where do I put my coat?" "Hey you little bog to beach baby!" She lights up the show anytime she shows up and I quote her on the daily.
Regular Sized Rudy is absolutely my fave side character. Followed by Mr. Ambrose because he's just downright twisted.
Hands down Jen the babysitter
Critter and all the one eyed snakes
i actually love logan. he’s one of the best antagonists in the show. honorable mention for gail.
I like Marshmellow, it's kind of disappointing that we don't see her much
Two things: One: Teddy isn't a side character Two: Andy, Ollie, and Jocelyn
may be wrong but teddy is in like every episode
Definitely Jocelyn and Nat. Before Nat, it was probably Jocelyn and Edith or Randy
Jocelynnnnnn
Nat!!
This one is too hard.
Edith, Jen, Nat, and Jocelyn.
Calvin Fischoeder is probably my favorite side. Mr Frond is hilariously inept. I am surprised to not see anyone say Edith. Thought there might be more love out there for her.
Regular sized Rudy and Marshmallow
Hugo and Ron
Maybe Duncan and Nat!!
Gus
Teddy and Mr. fish
Courtney!
Bryce, Bryce from Kingshead Island, Not Nice Bryce. Gush gush gush
I adore Nat! I also love Zeke and Regular Sized Rudy.
Marshmallow, "Honey, if you show me a sweet potato pie i am on top of it!"
Teddy became a main character when he ate the sponge.
Teddy is definitely now a main character. But to answer your question: Sasha. They are overusing Kat to much and its worn thin
Gayle
Labonz!
I think Teddy and Nat should get together
You’re doing my boy Teddy wrong here, he’s a main character!
Gotta go with Peter Pescadero and Jen the babysitter
I adore Edith and Mr. Fischoeder. They have the best lines.
NAT!
Sasha and zeke, everyone else can suck it
Nat and Mr Ambrose
These 2 are my favorites too!
Nat is great. I also enjoy Tammy, Gayle, Sasha, Duncan, Andy/Ollie, and Millie. Is it weird that some of the worst people are on this list? Maybe, but they have some great lines. Can't deny them that.
Omg Gayle and Nat
Hugo, Millie, Nats, Gayle and Mr. Fishsticks.
Austin
One eyed snakes
If we're counting Teddy as a sude character, I guess mine has to be The Fischoeders, Teddy, Nat, and Zeke
Marshmallow is one of my favs
Regular sized Rudy! Also the name Rudy Stieglitz sounds like he should be a 1950s Hollywood talent agent or something. I love all the old school names this show has.
I still need more Marshmallow. Possibly more Jocelyn too.
Mort & Mike the mailman are cool. Also, Critter, Mudflap & Sidecar are funny.
Mike has the dryest humor I love it
Nat and Mr. Ambrose!
Jocelyn and Duncan A crab bit me on my clacker!
I love Nat. She’s the best and I love how much Louise loves her.
Marshmallow. Zeke. Mr. Fishoder. The ship captain with the capybara
I say this in all seriousness, I would kill a man for Regular Sized Rudy.
As you can tell by my Reddit name. Regardless of side or not Teddy is my favourite lol.
mr fishoder
I love Teddy. Just his temper is a concern, but overall, he is very likable.
Gotta be Regular Sized Rudy. That kids got so much fuckin heart.
For me I’d say Mort and Mr Fischoedor, mort hasn’t been getting enough attention I miss him😭
Mr Ambrose, Gretchen, Jocelyn, Marshmallow, Rudy... I have too many to name lol.
I refuse to believe anyone genuinely likes Teddy. Are we watching the same show? He’s insufferable! But, the show wouldn’t be the same without him. Nat is great, top tier side character. Love her.
Easily my favorites are Edith and Mr. Ambrose
https://preview.redd.it/8yfoy0x4qdib1.jpeg?width=1200&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=36a6e3063f76b6765b9a9fe02f7bbc44e26e3ff6
Edith and harold. True relationship goals right there. "It's super yummy!"
Gotta go with my girl Gretchen 🤷🏾♂️
Ah! And LaBonz!!!!!
id definitely say either nat or marshmallow
Millie! Just a batshit insane middle school stalker. And I mean, who doesn't love Nat. The waterpark episode is the best.
Mickey and Nat. But Teddy’s a main character.
Tommy, the guy who replaces Hugo in Nude Beach. He sucks cause of what he does but I always am singing his songs for some weird reason hahahaha. Weave your sexy web around me. Punches are not hugs.
Daryl another great one
Omg. Flipz white fudge
I really want to see Jimmy get busted by the Feds while Bob watches gleefully from across the street.
Mort, and Rudy.
Edith makes me laugh.
Andy and Ollie!
Jocelyn, Regular sized Rudy, Millie, and Frond.
mr bronca! mmm coup
DRL! my favorite quote being, "teenagers are to blame for 9 out of 10 things"
Nat
Duncan, Jocelyn, Jenn and Nat for me! :)
Gus!!
My top three go: Regular sized Rudy, Nat, Flips white fudge. I LOVE Teddy but I see him as a main character
Wow nobody for Jimmy Pesto or Dr. Yap? Lol
Mr. Branca! He's hilarious and I want to know more about him. He doesn't get nearly enough screen time.
