It's amazing that it took this long, but Fox is scheduled to air a new series next year devoted, in part, to the dish that everyone loves to talk about — the all-American hamburger. Bob's Burgers focuses on a hapless family running a hapless burger joint. Serious Eats has more information and more videos on the show.

I love how Mike Judge concluded his King of the Hill series, one of Y&H's all-time favorite sitcoms. It didn't end with a death in the family, a herd of cattle stampeding down Arlen, or a Yankee invasion of Texas. It ends with Hank and Bobby Hill working together over grills, the smell of smoked meats enticing the cast for a final taste of Texas beef. Understated. Perfect.

The funny thing is, Judge didn't even intend for the finale to be the finale.
