The Simpsons have been picked up for a 27th season, and now the Emmy winning Bob’s Burgers has been picked up for a season six with FOX ordering 22 episodes.

Says Dana Walden and Gary Newman, Chairmen and CEOs of the Fox Television Group:

“We can’t help but love the Belcher family. This gem of a series is a rare feel-good blend of sharp wit and genuine heart that fans and critics alike have continued to love throughout its five seasons on FOX,” said Walden and Newman.  “We are proud of Loren and Jim and the extremely talented voice cast who bring these unique characters to life with both humor and charm each week.  We can’t wait to see what they have in store for Season Six.”
