Line 8:
* [[Talking to Himself]]: H. Jon Benjamin voices Jimmy, Jr. and Peter Pescadero in addition to Bob.
** Also, John Roberts voices both Linda and Joscelyn (from school). If you didn't know that before, it would have become pretty obvious when you hear them speak to one another in "Gene It On".
* [[What MightCould Have Been]]: In the original pitch of the show, Bob and his family were ''cannibals''. They would have served ground-up human meat to unwitting customers, while trying to keep the authorities off their trail. Needless to sayNaturally, thesomething finalthat versiondisgusting isgot quiterejected as a bitseries premise for network TV (it'd be a different story if it were on cable — either basic or pay-premium), but it didn't stop the first episode from alluding to it.
** Tina was also supposed to be a boy named Daniel, which explains why Dan Mintz (a boy) is voicing a girl.
** The pilot episode is basically one long reference to the aborted original premise. Thanks to a false rumor, everyone in town ''thinks'' Bob is a cannibal, and he's forced to get the meat tested to prove it's just beef.
** John Roberts originally auditioned to be a cast member for ''[[Saturday Night Live]]'' during the 2008-2009 season (when [[Amy Poehler]] left to have her baby and do other projects, so Lorne hired Bobby Moynihan, [[Abby Elliott]], and Michaela Watkins). Had he been chosen, not only would John Roberts be the second male homosexual cast member (and the first one hired since 1985), but he wouldn't have been the voice for Linda.
