Christmas Countdown: Bob's Burgers Cast Sings 'Twinkly Lights'

Hornet reports you might want to watch last Sunday's epidode of Bob's Burgers -- "it was a good one:"

The episode, entitled “The Bleakening,” is the show’s first hour-long episode, and (unsurprisingly) a musical. It features a subplot where the town’s gay bar, The Wiggle Room, closes. Naturally, that means that this episode’s going to focus on its queer characters. In this case, brunch-blogger Dalton Crespin (voiced by John Early) and trans sex workers Marbles and Marshmallow (voiced by Jack McBrayer and David Herman respectively.)

Without going into too much detail, the episode climaxes in a queer rave. The gorgeously animated set piece features a drag queen singing a disco-glam Christmas song. Miss Triple X-Mas, known the rest of the year as Cleavage to Beaver, is voiced by Matt Berninger of the National. And her song, “Twinkly Lights” is catchy, funny and above all, warmly moving — sort of like Bob’s Burgers itself. In the outro above, the song features out actor John Roberts who does the voice of Linda Belcher.
