When it comes to Halloween, no one does it like Bob's Burgers. Holiday episodes are such a big deal to the series and so are Halloween costumes.
Since the first Halloween episode aired in season 3, the Belchers kids have had pretty amazing costumes. While their picks might be unusual, they always work with their character, which shows just how good the writers are.
However, in looking at their costumes, there is one Belcher who stands above the rest, but let's talk about who is making the cut first. As much as I love Tina Belcher, her costumes just don't measure up to Gene and Louise's. That's not to say Tina has bad costumes as hers are just so classically Tina.
Some of Tina's past costumes have included Sixteen Handles, a Sand-witch, a Mombie, and Nun of Your Business. Honestly, I could see people recreating these and having a lot of fun. As mentioned, though, Gene and Louise have Tina bested in this regard.
Which Belcher is better with costumes: Gene or Louise?
In doing some research for this, I remembered some of the utterly amazing costumes the writers came up with for Gene and Louise. That's why this is such a decision to make, as Louise takes more adult costumes and makes them her own. As for Gene, he basically picks something you would never expect and rocks it.
Some of Gene's best costumes have included Queen Latifah, Andre 3000 the Giant, Turner and Hooch, and Cat Stevens. All of these are very bit as absurd and funny as you might imagine. Of all the costumes Gene has worn through the show, the coolest has to be Turner and Hooch. Gene dresses up on one side as Turner and then as Hooch, the dog on the other side.
Then for Louise, some of her costumes have included the Dragon with the Girl Tattoo, Ryan Gosling from Drive, and the guy from No Country for Old Men. As you can see, Louise loves a good movie-themed costume. Of course, she puts her own take on it and that's the reason why I think Louise is the clear winner here.
Louise will pick the most random costume and make it her own in the best way. As for the costume that won it for her, it had to be Peter Pan's Labyrinth. Even though the costume shouldn't work, Louise rocks it. She's not afraid to do a more out-of-the-box costume and I can respect that. I can only hope that the costumes for season 15 are just as good. Until we get those, you can always look back at some of the great costumes the Bob's Burgers team has come up with.
Bob's Burgers airs on Sundays on Fox at 9/8c.
