The Pesto Family

General

A family who operates Jimmy Pesto's Pizzeria, an Italian restaurant across the street from Bob's Burgers. The Pestos themselves appear to be Italian, but on several occasions this is indicated to be a lie, with the biggest hint being their real surname (they're actually the Poplopovich family). They're the Belchers' opposites in practically every way, but despite their restaurant's success make no mistake—that's not necessarily a good thing.

---

• The Ditz: It's generally acknowledged by several characters that every member of the family has subpar intelligence. The twins are the most obvious example, but even people who like Jimmy Sr. have called him stupid, and Jimmy Jr. ranges from "average intelligence" to "future recipient of a Darwin Award".
• Dysfunctional Family: While the Belchers subvert this trope by being quirky but supportive, the Pestos play it straight as an arrow. Jimmy Sr. is a deadbeat divorcee who treats his employee better than his own kids, Jimmy Jr. holds resentment towards his father's ways, and the twins have been neglected to the point that they've become fully dependent on each other and have an emotional meltdown if that is interfered with. While much more downplayed than the rest of the family dynamic, Jimmy Jr. also doesn't seem to have a good relationship with his brothers (not that it's a bad relationship, they just don't interact that much and tend not to be on the same side when they do), in sharp contrast to the Belcher kids.
• Family Business: Played with in regards to the pizzeria. While all five Belchers work at Bob's Burgers (and are the only employees there), the only Pesto besides Jimmy Sr. who is seen working at the pizzeria is Jimmy Jr., who works as a busboy—all the other employees are a hired kitchen staff (and Trev) with no relation to the Pestos. Granted, if Jimmy Sr. actually gave Andy and Ollie a job there, he'd just be shooting himself in the foot.
• Fauxreigner: Their real surname is "Poplopovich", which possibly implies a Russian/Slavic heritage, but Jimmy Sr. gave his family an Italian surname to authenticate his Italian restaurant. "Bye Bye Boo Boo" has the man himself outright state he's not Italian, which naturally means the Pesto kids (unless their mother was Italian) aren't either.
• Foil: To the Belcher family. Despite being more financially stable, the Pestos have a fractured dynamic in contrast to the Belchers' close-knit dynamic.
• Freudian Excuse: The kids' behaviors become a lot more understandable when one looks at their absolutely horrible role model of a father, as well as the neglect they've been through. As for Jimmy Sr., the jury's still out on why he's such an awful person.
• Missing Mom: The matriarch of the family is never shown onscreen. We don't even get a name.
  • In "The Belchies", Jimmy Pesto reveals that he's divorced, as he and his ex-wife share custody of at least the Pesto twins. "Ex Mach Tina" follows up on this, with Jimmy Jr. claiming his mother has a new 'friend' named Allen, which in turn indicates that Jimmy Jr. also has regular contact with his mother.
  • She's noticeably absent in "Family Fracas", even though the titular show is an event where the kids and both of the parents are supposed to attend. In her place is Trev, who Jimmy Sr. calls the son he wishes he had.
• Nice Mean And In Between: Andy and Ollie are Nice in that they're cheerful and usually non-malicious, Jimmy Pesto is Mean in that he's an unlikeable, spiteful Jerkass, and Jimmy Jr. is In-Between in that he's generally laid-back, but can be a pretty big jerk sometimes.
• Only Known by Their Nickname: A trait that all four of them share (though it's only implied in Andy and Ollie's case).
  • "Burger Wars" reveals that none of them are even called by the correct surname—their real surname is Poplopovich.
  • A throwaway line from Zeke in "Presto Tina-o" confirms that Jimmy Jr.'s real first name is James^note Jimmy is traditionally a nickname for people named James, meaning one could easily infer that this was his real name, but "Presto Tina-o" is the one time he's outright been called such; by proxy, it's easily inferred that Jimmy Sr. is also named James. This makes them James Poplopovich Sr. and James Poplopovich Jr., but they're never called such in full.
  • "Andy" is typically short for Andrew, while "Ollie" is typically short for Oliver. Assuming Jimmy Sr. didn't outright put "Andy" and "Ollie" on their birth certificates, this would make their real names Andrew and Oliver Poplopovich. Unlike their father and older brother, however, this case can only be implied based on what their nicknames are usually short for.
• Out of Focus: The family started out as a fairly prominent part of the series, with Jimmy Pesto Sr. serving as the closest thing the show had to a main antagonist and Jimmy Jr. being Tina's primary love interest. As the seasons go on, however, the Pestos begin to appear less and less.
  • Jimmy Sr. started becoming less prominent in Season 3 and especially Season 4, where he had only one speaking appearance (and two small cameos besides then, both of which were in the two-part season finale). He tends to average around five appearances per season—which was a large amount during the 13-episode Season 1 and 9-episode Season 2, but a rather small amount for the ~20-episode seasons the show has had since Season 3. He was even outright absent from Season 12 (albeit due to external circumstances rather than Jimmy's decreasing importance within the series).
  • Jimmy Jr. is the most prominent of the family, and he's the only one to avert the trope—due to being Tina's primary love interest, he appears very frequently, with said appearances averaging between a third of the season to half of the season. If anything, he's only gotten more prominent, going from three appearances in Season 1 and two appearances in Season 2 to as many as ten appearances in later seasons, and he's also the only Pesto to have a significant appearance in the movie (due to being a major part of Tina's arc), whereas the rest of the Pestos are minor cameos (and Jimmy Sr. doesn't even speak).
  • The Pesto twins were originally just as prominent as Jimmy Jr. due to being Louise's cronies. With Louise's Character Development, she has since begun hanging out more with Regular-Sized Rudy (who one could make a case for being her Only Friend), with the Pesto twins having much less appearances nowadays. The drop-off point was around Season 7, where they went from averaging six or seven speaking roles per season to around four speaking roles per season, even less than their father.

Jimmy Pesto Sr.

Jimmy Pesto Sr. (James Poplopovich Sr.)

"What, are they writing an article on guys with mustaches you wanna punch? ZOOM! Haha! I say 'Zoom' now, you like it?"

Voiced by: Jay Johnston (Seasons 1 to 11) Eric Bauza (Season 14 onwards)

The owner of Jimmy Pesto's Pizzeria, Bob's Sitcom Arch-Nemesis, and a neglectful father of three. He's an immature and petty jerkass whose sole talent lies in his ability to get customers, something he constantly holds over Bob's head. Besides his business skills, however, his food ranges from mediocre to awful, and nobody truly likes him aside from his bartender Trev.

---

• Abusive Parents: He doesn't treat his own children any better than he treats Bob. In some ways, he even treats them worse, and it's to the point that pretty much all of his kids' worst traits are in some way because of him.
  • In "The Belchies", when Andy and Ollie are happy to see him after almost dying, he expresses indifference (to the point of failing to notice they were missing) and tells them not to wrinkle his belt. He then has the gall to proclaim himself a good father, albeit in a way that clearly indicates he's aware he isn't.
  • He also attempts to prohibit Jimmy Jr. from dancing. Not because of any valid reasons, but because he Wanted a Gender-Conforming Child.
  • In "Family Fracas", the fact that he calls Trev the son he wishes he had in front of his kids says everything it needs to.
  • In "The Unnatural", he tried to sign the twins up for baseball lessons and told them "Last chance to win my love, guys." The twins assume it's a joke, and even imply he says it on a regular basis.
  • When Andy and Ollie get stuck in the Belcher kids' box fort in "Fort Night", Jimmy Pesto doesn't even appear in the episode, suggesting he didn't even notice they were gone (compared to Bob and Linda, who were actively searching for the kids before Millie manipulated them into thinking they were fine)—or that he did notice, but just didn't care.
• Always Someone Better: On both ends of this with Bob:
  • Better: he's a far better businessman than Bob, which is why his restaurant is much more successful despite having worse food.
  • Worse: Bob is a much better chef than Jimmy. When Jimmy tries to create a new burger entree at his restaurant, it attracts customers, but later when he tries it himself he breaks down into hysterical sobs over how bad it is. Jimmy Jr. also mentions that two people came down with food poisoning after eating scampi from his restaurant. This alone would make him worse than Bob, but the contrast is played up more by how Bob's food is almost always praised by whoever eats it, with its few detractors almost always being biased against him or clear jerkasses (or, in the case of Jimmy himself, both).
• Ambiguously Bi: He clearly has an attraction to women and was previously married to one, but his interactions with Trev imply that he also has some leanings towards men as well.
• Arch-Enemy: To Bob; no matter what problems Bob's dealing with, Jimmy and his restaurant are among the biggest threats (both directly and indirectly) to Bob's business.
• Bad Boss: When he's not bullying Bob, he's busy bullying Trev, who continues to work for him despite the blatantly hostile work environment.
• Blatant Lies: In "The Belchies", he triumphantly calls himself a good father. In case the rest of the page didn't make it obvious: he is not. His tone implies he's well aware of it.
• Brainless Beauty: He's called attractive in-universe, but he's quite the idiot. Just about the only time he uses his brain is when it comes to business, and even then it's not always foolproof.
  • In "World Wharf II: The Wharfening", Tina theorizes that Jimmy was the one who kidnapped Bob. Without any other leads or suspects, Louise cites Jimmy's stupidity as the one reason he couldn't have done so.
  • In "They Serve Horses, Don't They?", Hugo (a man who bends over backwards for Jimmy when it comes to health inspections) outright calls Jimmy an idiot, revealing he would rather spend an extensive amount of time working with Bob than put up with Jimmy's nonsense.
• The Bully: Acts like one to Bob, and to a much lesser extent Trev.
• The Bus Came Back: Pesto became the The Voiceless for three seasons due to Johnston's involvement in the January 6th insurrection. He returned in "Bully-ieve It or Not" when Eric Bauza replaced him.
• Cannot Spit It Out: It takes him a lot of effort to tell Bob that he thinks his food is good in "Yachty or Nice", to the point that it almost seems like he's choking on his words.
• Character Catchphrase: Starting with "Glued, Where's My Bob?", he begins saying, "ZOOM!" as punctuation for his insults. He lampshades it.
• Character Development: It took an entire decade (in real life time), but the series finally showed his (very small) moments of kindness. In "Prank You For Being a Friend", he lets Bob and Linda play slot cars with him and they all have a good time. In "Yachty or Nice", he genuinely, though with much hesitation, admits that Bob's food is good and recommends their restaurant to cater at the yacht club.
• Comic-Book Fantasy Casting: He looks like a young (well, younger) Huey Lewis.
• Cutting Corners: He goes for the cheapest ingredients to save money. Combined with his complete lack of skill at cooking, this means his food tastes like crap.
• Demoted to Extra: Went from the character closest to being the show's main antagonist to an occasional nuisance who appears far less often, down to being outright absent in Season 12. Jay Johnston was fired from the show after it was discovered he was involved in January 6.
• Dreadful Musician: He attempts to sing while hosting a Rastafarian night at his pizzeria, except it's not very good. It doesn't help that he's trying to sing with a fake Jamaican accent that's shoddy at best.
• Edible Theme Naming: Pesto is the name of an Italian sauce. Considering Pesto isn't Jimmy's actual surname, he could have even invoked the trope.
• Embarrassing Nickname: At the Desire Dungeon, he's known as "Baby Num Nums" because he has a diaper fetish.
• Enemy Mine: In "A Few Gurt Men", when a party entertainer scams both Bob's Burgers and Jimmy Pesto's Pizzeria into giving him free food, Bob and Jimmy decide to work together to try and get revenge, and Jimmy surprisingly doesn't turn on Bob at any point during the scheme.
• Evil Counterpart: He's Bob's antithesis as both a restauranteur and father.
• Evil Is Petty: He regularly gets into pissing contests (or "peeing races", as Linda calls them) with Bob over trivial things.
• Fantasy-Forbidding Father: He doesn't support his son's love of dancing, and has more than once outright told Jimmy Jr. to stop. This contributes to their sour relationship.
• Foil: To his rival, Bob, in so many ways.
  • Jimmy is infinitely more successful as a restauranteur, but his food is infinitely worse than Bob's.
  • Jimmy as a person is more popular than Bob, but only on a superficial level—those who don't know either are more inclined to side with Jimmy, but anyone who knows either of the two is likely to favor Bob.
  • Both of them have a smaller circle of friends, but in Bob's case this stems from his introverted nature, and both Teddy and Mort like to hang out with him; in Jimmy's case it appears to stem from the fact that he's a horrible person, and Trev only really hangs out with him because Jimmy's his boss and also because he wants to have a friend.
  • Bob is Happily Married; Jimmy is bitterly divorced.
  • Both of them have sons who are more artistically-inclined than sports-inclined. However, Bob is an Open-Minded Parent who supports Gene's talents even if he doesn't understand them, while Jimmy is a Fantasy-Forbidding Father who tries to force Jimmy Jr. to stop pursuing his talents.
  • Both of their youngest children have deep-seated respect for their fathers. However, while Bob genuinely earns the respect Louise has for him, Jimmy has yet to do a single thing that warrants the adoration Andy and Ollie show him. Moreover, Bob is genuinely close to Louise, while Jimmy actively avoids spending time with the twins.
  • While their enmity is very much mutual, Bob is willing to put aside his grudge whenever the need arises while Pesto goes out of his way to be a spiteful dick to him no matter what happens, regardless of whether or not Bob has any involvement with it.
  • Jimmy changed his family's legal name to make them seem more authentically Italian-American, despite being ethnically Russian or Slavic. Bob doesn't really care about his ethnic background, but has been heavily implied to be actually Italian-American on his mother's side.
• Foreign Culture Fetish: Obsessed with Italy and Italy-adjacent pop culture, to the point of changing his entire family's surname to reflect it. Bob notes that Jimmy claiming his pizzeria was the site of a mob hit (with Jimmy also providing enthusiastic machine gun sounds) was the happiest Bob's ever seen him.
• Full-Name Basis: Downplayed—Trev and occasionally Bob refer to him on a First-Name Basis, and some people (primarily Linda) refer to him on a Last-Name Basis, but for the most part he's primarily called Jimmy Pesto by the cast.
• Funny Background Event: Usually featured in these, most commonly depicting him being a dick to someone nearby (usually Trev—and in the movie, Speedo Guy).
• Genius Ditz: His food is commented on several times to be sub-par at best, and his intelligence is generally remarked on as below average as well. But he has a knack for advertising and drawing customers, which keeps him in business.
• Hated by All: Owing to his awful personality, he's not very well liked by the people who associate with him. His eldest son detests him for rather understandable reasons. Despite paying his rent on time, he's been known to annoy Mr. Fischoeder. A meat vendor he relied on in "They Serve Horses, Don't They?" admitted to Bob that he didn't like him and Pesto invites himself to his birthday party despite clearly not being welcome (compare this to Bob, who was actually invited). Hugo Habercore and Chuck Charles associate with him due to their mutual hate for Bob, but they don't have much respect for him outside of that; Hugo admits to Bob he doesn't think highly of Jimmy's intelligence while Chuck is annoyed by Jimmy trying to take his mike to advertise his restaurant. And while his primary rivalry is with Bob, the rest of the Belchers are shown to dislike him as well (on the few occasions Jimmy interacts with any of them besides Bob), with Linda growing increasingly intolerant of his abuse of her husband and Louise thinking he's a complete dumbass. The only person who genuinely enjoys him is Trev, but even he has his limits and is a nicer person when his boss isn't around.
• Hate Sink: He's an egotistical jackass, a negligent and controlling father who shows no affection for any of his sons, a corner-cutting businessman with no concern for his customers' health, a petty bully to Bob, and he even celebrates when Bob's restaurant suffers a serious setback (such as the fire in the 200th episode, or the sinkhole that blocks the entrance in the movie); he's even tried to cause such setbacks himself (such as in "Burger Wars", where he devises a scheme to buy the restaurant's lease and actively tries to stop Bob from thwarting him). With pretty much no redeeming qualities whatsoever, very few people like him (both in-universe and out).
• The Heavy: In "The Oeder Games", where he's the most active threat during the water balloon fight. He personally takes out Tina, he's the most difficult opponent to hit (owing to his twin sons clinging to him as body armor), and he's the last opponent that Bob has to hit at the end. After the game ends and Fischoeder turns everyone against Bob, Jimmy is the active leader of the manhunt, and he's the only one who hesitates to stand down after Linda's Shaming the Mob speech. On the other hand, Mr. Fischoeder is the actual Big Bad of the episode, but he just sits back on the sidelines and is quickly talked down by Bob when the two finally get to meet alone.
• Hidden Depths:
  • He's shown to be incredibly skilled at arcade games in "Burgerboss", to the point where Bob struggled to beat his score for the titular game and eventually had to get Darryl to do it instead.
  • "Prank You for Being a Friend" reveals he has a secret slot car collection, and he's passionate enough about the hobby to even let Bob and Linda play with them.
• I Have No Son!: He would like to forget that his three biological kids are the way they are, between the twins' general kookiness to Jimmy Jr.'s love of dancing. It's to the point of calling Trev the son he wished he had right in front of said kids.
• Inferiority Superiority Complex: Despite acting like an obnoxious Smug Snake, his obsession with Bob is clearly based on his insecurities, demonstrated when he's reduced to tears by his own food.
• Insufferable Imbecile: He's not only a horrible human being, but he's also a complete idiot.
• Jerkass: It's not just towards Bob, too (though he does get it the worst); Jimmy Pesto is a general conceited, petty, irredeemable scumbag of a human being. Case in point, in "The Oeder Games", he was still considering throwing a balloon at Bob even after everyone else had backed off (doing so would hike up Bob's rent by $50), and when he eventually does back off it's clear he didn't want to.
• Jerkass Has a Point: For all his rudeness, he occasionally brings up a valid argument. Unfortunately, however, whatever points he does have are ruined by how he uses them not to be helpful, but as an excuse to be a dick. It doesn't help that he'll even insult people when they actually listen to him.
  • Subverted regarding his kids, who he comes off as rather uncaring to. His unease regarding the twins' clinginess is understandable, and he raises a point by thinking Jimmy Jr. should go to a speech therapy instead of dance classes since he speaks with a lisp, but this is all rendered moot by the fact that there's nothing the kids could do that justifies Jimmy being a crappy dad.
  • He's not wrong about how poorly Bob runs his business a lot of the time, even if Jimmy's food is less impressive by comparison. While Bob just wings it and is more comfortable with cooking behind the grill, Jimmy is more sociable with people and goes out of his way to interact with others while also giving his restaurant a better décor and has a better understanding of business management. Unfortunately, rather than give Bob advice or constructive criticism, he decides to repeatedly mock Bob over it. Additionally, one of his points is that Bob pays too much for high-quality ingredients, which is just rich coming from a guy who's given numerous people food poisoning with his subpar ingredients (in fact, when Bob actually follows his advice, it's quickly shown to be a mistake).
  • He correctly points out to Linda that not everyone likes surprise parties, and that throwing Bob one isn't a good idea. Once again, however, he points this out while being a total asshole about it, down to laughing at Bob after Linda follows his advice and cancels the party.
• Jerk with a Heart of Jerk: Nearly every single time it seems like he's not such an awful person, he quickly reminds the audience why he's Hated by All. To date, only two episodes have him show genuine kindness towards Bob, both of which are extremely late into the show's run.
• Karma Houdini:
  • In general, despite his restaurant being a known health hazard (having caused food poisoning on more than one occasion and also having had a mold problem), Hugo doesn't lift a finger to shut him down or even give him so much as a warning, even though "Weekend at Mort's" makes it clear that he's well aware of it.
  • Doesn't get punished for cheating on "Family Fracas". He was originally going to be, according to Loren Bouchard, but he had second thoughts about the original ending (which saw Bob dump Fracas Foam into Jimmy's ill-gotten van) and decided to scrap it because he felt if Bob did get his revenge on Jimmy Pesto, then fans would complain that Bob was acting petty and out of character.
• Kick the Dog: Aside from his regular antagonism toward Bob, in "Bob Belcher and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Kids", he forces Trev to stand in front of his restaurant covered in seaweed for a sculpture contest, despite Trev noting that he may be allergic to seaweed.
• Laser-Guided Karma: Whenever he's the direct antagonist of an episode, he'll get his just desserts with very few exceptions.
  • In "Sheesh! Cab, Bob?" Bob foils Pesto's attempts to keep Jimmy Jr. from attending Tina's party with some help from his "night-friends", and very nearly humiliates Jimmy in the process by threatening to reveal his diaper fetish to his customers.
  • In "Burger Wars", Pesto tries to sabotage Bob's attempts to save his restaurant by selling his own burgers. Later, he's forced to watch Fischoeder dismiss the rent and extend Bob's lease the instant he tastes one of Bob's burgers, rendering everything Jimmy had done up until then worthless and also rubbing Bob's superior cooking skills in Jimmy's face. Additionally, his own kids decide to spend time at Bob's Burgers, leaving Jimmy alone to stomp back to his restaurant in anger.
  • In "Burgerboss", Linda accuses Jimmy Pesto of having "peeing races" with Bob. Pesto's boating friends overhear this and misinterpret "peeing races" as something sexual (instead of "pissing contests", which is what Linda meant) and it ends up costing him a prestigious yacht club membership.
  • In "Easy Commercial, Easy Go-mercial", he used the same football star Bob used to make a commercial, and steal potential customers from Bob while acting like Bob ripped him off. However, Gene's Super Bowel caused the plumbing to flood the entire restaurant, forcing Pesto to close it for the day and meaning he sunk thousands of dollars into a worthless commercial.
  • In "Best Burger", he makes yet another attempt to publicly humiliate Bob by trying to make a burger better than the man who's spent his entire life making them. Jimmy not only loses the competition while Bob very nearly wins (he still loses, but it's clear he got second), but his burger is so bad the judges spit it out after a single bite, publicly humiliating Jimmy instead.
  • In "Paraders of the Lost Float", he spends the entire parade trying to sabotage Bob's float. He ultimately loses fifth place to the Belchers because he's too focused on winning to have fun, and Bob and Louise even nail him with t-shirt cannons for good measure.
  • In "Are You There Bob? It's Me, Birthday", he decides to mock Bob over the lack of guests at his birthday party (that isn't even real, given Linda cancelled her plans because of Jimmy's own advice). He steps out into the open to do it, causing a passing biker to accidentally hit him hard in the groin. As he collapses onto the ground in pain, Bob can't help but celebrate.
• Lethal Chef: It's a wonder Jimmy Pesto has more customers than Bob because, good business sense or not, his cooking is downright awful, both as a result of him using cheap low-quality ingredients and his general incompetence. His shrimp scampi has given at least two people food poisoning (taking the trope to an almost literal degree), the burger he makes during a cooking competition is so bad that the judges aren't able to make it through a single bite before spitting it out, and Mickey goes as far as to call his pizza the worst he's ever had in his life (bad enough to shoot holes in the pizza boxes). It's to the point that when he once tried to make a burger entree at his restaurant, he tasted it and started crying over how bad it was, and immediately pulled it from the menu. Played with to a degree, as he is heavily implied to not do most of the cooking at his own restaurant, instead relying on a hired kitchen staff, resulting in the food generally being of higher quality than if he himself had made it, though still not very liked.
• Like a Son to Me: Claims this about Trev in "Family Fracas" in order to justify him being on the Pestos' team, though there's not really any indication that he genuinely believes Trev to be this.
• Like Father, Unlike Son: He’s an absolute jackass who antagonizes Bob regularly, whereas his three sons, while awkward, inept, and generally odd, are mostly kind hearted boys who hold a decent relationship with the Belcher kids. And even the Pesto kids are capable of being cordial towards Bob, much moreso than their father.
• Meaningful Name: Jimmy Pesto is an antagonistic, annoying pest towards Bob.
• Mighty Glacier: Not usually (considering the show's lack of focus on action), but he becomes one in "The Oeder Games". His use of Andy and Ollie as body armor slows him down heavily, but the twins also enable him to take two extra hits before going down, and he was the first to grab water balloons, meaning he's armed to the teeth.
• Non-Action Guy: While Bob's Burgers isn't known for high quality fight scenes, the one time he and Bob get into a fist fight ends with both of them exhausted quickly and leaning on each other for support. It's especially notable in Jimmy's case given he's in much better shape than Bob.
• Only Friend: The Season 10 finale confirms that Trev is his only real friend. Considering how awful of a person Jimmy is, this is honestly the least surprising revelation about him.
• Pants-Pulling Prank: Does one on Trev in "Yachty or Nice", and for much of the episode it seems like he's plotting to do the same to Bob.
• Parental Neglect: Has dumped the twins at the Belchers' place for "free babysitting" (i.e. he can't be bothered to take care of them himself). He also doesn't seem to pay much attention to the kids' whereabouts or activities, even when he really should (such as in "The Belchies", where his neglect nearly gets his kids killed).
• Pet the Dog: He is for all intents and purposes an irredeemable human being, but he has some small moments of kindness.
  • He initially held a cordial relationship with Linda. Subverted, though—as he grows to be more and more of a dick, she associates with him less and less and becomes less tolerant of his nonsense.
  • In "Work Hard or Die Trying, Girl", he’s one of the ten people left in the Working Girl audience when most of the other people have snuck out to Gene’s Die Hard musical. Though he gets caught sneaking out too, he also yells, "Great job, Jimmy Jr.! Woo!" as he goes, which JJ seems to appreciate.
  • "Prank You for Being a Friend" ends with Jimmy allowing Bob and Linda to play with his slot car collection.
  • In "Yachty or Nice", he admits that the reason he had Bob picked to cater the club is so that he would be taken up for membership—because he thinks people would like Bob's food.
• Psychological Projection: A lot of his insults towards Bob seem a lot more fitting for Jimmy himself.
  • Take note of just how many times he insults the quality of Bob's food. This one becomes especially obvious once it's revealed in "Yachty or Nice" that Jimmy really thinks Bob's food is actually good.
  • In the Season 10 finale, he calls Bob lonely and claims Linda is gonna divorce him. Not only is Jimmy himself divorced, that same episode reveals he has no friends besides Trev and lives by himself.
• Psychopathic Manchild: Despite having his own business and being a father of three, Jimmy is very immature, to the point of making his three dimwitted kids look mature by contrast. He not only taunts Bob akin to a schoolyard bully, but also isn't above mocking other people, which makes even Trev call him out on it. And he's also emotionally and spiritually immature as shown in "Bridge Over Troubled Rudy" where he basically throws a tantrum and storms out of Bob's restaurant when Bob beat him in a meditation contest. In that same contest, Jimmy proved that he more or less relies on his negative traits and being a jerk to Bob and other people in general just to feel good about himself.
• Really Gets Around: Is a regular at an underground sex dungeon, he often goes to a motel to meet dates, and three prostitutes are familiar with him (while he's outright stated to have never been their client, the fact that they run in similar circles is telling).
• Shadow Archetype: He's what Bob would be if he prioritized his restaurant's success over anything else. Jimmy's successful, but he's also divorced, petty, disconnected from his kids, a sexual deviant, and a lousy cook who knowingly cuts corners and takes pride in it. The few things he has in common with Bob is a penchant for puns and the fact that they both run restaurants and have three kids.
• Sitcom Arch-Nemesis: To Bob.
• Sore Loser:
  • In "Paraders of the Lost Float", after losing the $500 fifth place prize to the Belchers, he angrily yells out that he was robbed and spends the rest of the parade sulking by himself. In contrast, his kids go off to have fun with the other paradegoers, and even Trev admits the Belchers earned it.
  • In "Bridge Over Troubled Rudy", he basically Rage Quits the meditation competition once it becomes clear Bob is going to curbstomp him.
• Stealth Insult: Even the few times he compliments Bob almost always have an insult hidden in there somewhere.
• Technician vs. Performer: In terms of being a restaurant owner, he is the technician to Bob's performer. He's a highly skilled businessman who runs his restaurant like a well-oiled machine and is willing to do whatever it takes, no matter how underhanded, to optimize his profits. The end result is that he's extremely successful financially but otherwise a terrible person and chef.
• Thin-Skinned Bully: He makes bullying Bob his hobby and almost never takes Bob's remarks seriously (often due to them being Lame Comeback's), yet when Bob does successfully dish his crap back, the jackass has the gall to call Bob, the man he childishly taunts on a daily basis, mean.
• Toxic Friend Influence: To his bartender, Trev. He's shown to be much nicer when Jimmy isn't around and only goes along with Jimmy's antics out of a desire to be his friend, and even that has its limits.
• Ungrateful Bastard: He'll still mock Bob even when Bob tries to help him. For this reason Bob rarely tries to help him.
• The Voiceless: During his brief appearances in the movie, he doesn't speak once.
• Wanted a Gender-Conforming Child: His main reason for treating Jimmy Jr. like crap is because his son likes to dance instead of do things like sports.
• Watering Down: Dalton indicates in "Brunchsquatch" that the alcohol he serves is heavily watered down. Specifically, the alcohol-to-water ratio is so skewed that Dalton wasn't even buzzed after sixteen Bloody Marys, and could even drive home without any issues.
• Wearing a Flag on Your Head: He often wears an Italian flag necktie due to his Foreign Culture Fetish. While at a yacht club in "Burgerboss," he accessorized his tux with an Italian flag cummerbund, and his suit in the same episode (green jacket, white shirt, red bow tie) retains the Italian flag's color scheme.

Jimmy Pesto Jr. (James Poplopovich Jr.)

"Don't tell me not to dance, Dad!"

Voiced by: H. Jon Benjamin

Jimmy Pesto's oldest son and Tina's biggest (as well as first and most recurring) crush. An aspiring dancer whose passions conflict with his father's wishes, Jimmy Jr. tends to be unaware of Tina's adoration of him—and when he does take notice, his reaction varies from flattered to annoyed. One thing does remain consistent, though—he rarely reciprocates Tina's feelings unless she's found a boyfriend that isn't him.

---

• Adaptational Villainy: In-universe; in "What About Job?" he's portrayed as the Big Bad of Tina's story, with plans to wipe out humanity by playing an unreleased Boyz 4 Now song that functions as a Brown Note, all so he can have Tina to himself. When Tina's family questions her on it, Tina explains it's because Jimmy Jr. didn't give her some gum earlier at school and she's still bitter.
• Amazon Chaser: He seems to have become one at the end of "The Belchies" after he witnesses how Tina's quick thinking saved Louise's life.
  Jimmy Jr.: Strong girls are hot.
• Ambiguously Bi: His wrestling matches with Zeke have a homoerotic vibe, and his feelings toward Zeke could sometimes be seen as attraction. He gets very jealous when Zeke seems to be making friends with Gene. He also greatly admires Josh for his dancing skills when the two of them compete for Tina, and by the end of it he is more into Josh than her.
• Berserk Button: His speech impediment is a touchy subject to him, which is why he considers it extremely distasteful when Zeke revealed that he bullied a kid for it in "Bully-ieve It or Not" (and Zeke bullied said kid and others with his wrestling to make them pee in fear and be accepted by other kids, but the lisp thing only happened once, which was enough for Jimmy to condemn).
• Betty and Veronica: The distant, aloof Veronica to Josh's approachable Betty.
• Big Brother Bully: Not a lot, but in "Bully-ieve It or Not" when making a point to Zeke about everyone having done things in the past that they're not proud of, he mentions one time when he tormented Andy and Ollie for weeks by somehow convincing them that only one of them existed.
• Big Brother Instinct: Not often shown due to how rarely he and his brothers are actually seen together, but in "The Spider House Rules" he shows concern after one of Louise's ideas of fun gets his brothers hurt, and admits that he's not keen on her ringleading for this reason.
• Crazy Jealous Guy: Pretty much the most consistent way for him to return Tina's feelings is if he learns she's got a boyfriend. Tina lampshades in "Two For Tina" that he wasn't interested in her before she was taken.
  • "Stand By Gene" shows him getting jealous that Zeke is bonding with Gene. He spends the rest of the episode being outwardly rude to Gene.
• Dancing with Myself: He has a passion for dancing his feelings, especially slow dancing, which he doesn't seem to realize is typically done with a partner.
• Depending on the Writer: He's easily one of the most likely candidates to hold the Jerkass Ball, so much so that it comes across more as this trope. Sometimes his treatment of Tina is horrible for no reason, sometimes he considers her an Abhorrent Admirer, sometimes he's just plain oblivious regarding her feelings, and other times he is friendly and reciprocates her crush. Especially jarring is that this can change within consecutive episodes (for instance, in "Ex Mach Tina" he's oblivious and even neglectful towards Tina, but in "Bob Actually" he's enthusiastic about kissing Tina, and would have done so at the start of the episode if not for Tina's diarrhea delaying things).
• The Ditz: Not as much as his brothers, but he's definitely not the sharpest knife in the drawer. Among other examples, at one point he states that he thought April Fools' Day was sometime in May.
• Female Gaze: Given that he's Tina's main Love Interest, the show often provides shots of his butt whenever Tina looks at him.
• First Kiss: Gives Tina her first kiss, and all signs point to the inverse as well.
• Freudian Excuse: Jimmy Jr.'s inconsistent attitude towards Tina and his sometimes abrasive behavior can be explained by his absolutely awful role model of a father, whose own attitudes towards romance and sex are both implied to be horrible.
• Girly Run: A variation where his arms flail about more wildly, almost as if he's trying to swim on land. As in most cases of the trope, it's completely impractical for when he needs to run fast, and even Tina (who has a fairly odd running style of her own) can outpace him without even trying.
• Green-Eyed Epiphany: Once he finds out that Tina has Josh courting her, he spends all of "Two For Tina" trying to woo her. Pretty much everyone lampshades that he wasn't interested before learning about Josh.
• Hates Their Parent: He shows resentment towards his father for disapproving of his love for dancing. The feeling is mutual.
• Heterosexual Life-Partners: With Zeke.
• Hypocrite: In "V for Valentine-detta", he coldly remarks to Becky that without her braces he can finally understand her. Keep in mind he has a heavy lisp to the point that his father wants him to attend speech therapy.
• If It's You, It's Okay: Non-romantic example. He is not open to do anything unless Zeke comes along or Zeke decides it's going to be a blast. Jimmy Jr. will change his mind immediately, much to Tina's chagrin, as most of these things Jimmy Jr. usually feels unsure about are her attempts to spend time alone with him without Zeke getting too much in their faces.
• I Surrender, Suckers: He pretends to forfeit his and Tina's race in "The Gene Mile" in a ploy to get Tina to slow down so he can overtake her. It briefly works because Tina's not expecting it, but Jimmy Jr.'s Girly Run is so slow and impractical that Tina passes him again with no effort.
• It's All About Me: There are numerous episodes where Jimmy Jr. fails to consider anyone's feelings except his own, leading him to treat others (particularly Tina) horribly. The defining example is "V for Valentine-Detta", where he not only chooses Becky over Tina as his Valentine, but he uses the picture frame Tina made for him to hold a picture of Becky, mistreats Becky by arriving three hours late and forgetting her name, and eventually dumps her mid-date to attempt to hook back up with Tina.
• Jerkass Ball: While normally aloof/ignorant at worst, there are times where he's not much better than his father.
  • In "Presto Tina-O", he acts more abrasively towards Tina, to the point of making her angry.
  • Runs with the ball in "V for Valentine-detta" when he not only chooses another girl as his Valentine (Jimmy Jr. and Tina's on-and-off status is standard) but he uses the picture frame that Tina made for him for Valentine's Day to frame a picture of him and the other girl. Speaking of the other girl, he shows up 3 hours late to pick her up for their date, he gets her name wrong, and then he breaks up with her in the middle of the date.
  • Whenever he hangs out with Tammy and Jocelyn, he becomes nearly as obnoxious as them (and it's only "nearly" in the sense that those two are way too obnoxious to match).
• Jerk with a Heart of Gold: Deep down he's a good-natured person at heart, just one who's made plenty of mistakes and has trouble taking others' feelings into consideration.
• Know-Nothing Know-It-All: Many times he gets involved in something, but only for the sake of his dancing, and it shows through his lack of experience in the non-dancing activity despite his claims otherwise. He ran for student president just so he can decide what music plays during the school dance, to the point that he dropped out when told he'd get to do that anyways. He became a magician just to show off his dancing, and refused Tina's advice despite clearly not knowing how to perform magic. He appears to be even this for dancing, as he never actually takes lessons and just dances based on how he feels, like when he tried slow dancing, something that's done with two people, by himself. He once talked down to Tina that she couldn't keep up with him during a school run, but he himself is a terrible runner, flailing his arms frontward and jumping awkwardly with every step vaguely like he's trying to swim on land (and still having the gall to talk down to Tina as he proves himself wrong).
• Loved by All: In "The Millie-churian Candidate", he's running for school president, and has amassed a 95% approval rating in the early polls—it's slightly downplayed given it's not quite 100%, but it's still extremely close to unanimous support (to the point that Millie joining the race barely even impacts him). Thanks to Louise's failed efforts to undermine Millie, however, he ends up plummeting to a 0% Approval Rating, to the point he drops out of the race after pretty much all of Wagstaff (including both of his own brothers) has turned against him.
• Mirror Character: To, of all characters, Bob. Despite neither being the first characters one would link with each other, they both have rather similar upbringings. Both are the offspring of a Fantasy-Forbidding Father who share their father's name (and are specifically the second/"Junior" of that name). Both are Only Known by Their Nickname (Jimmy Jr.'s real name is James; Bob's is Robert). Both grew up working in their respective father's restaurant with a desire to creatively express themselves how they want to, leading to them holding resentment towards their father. Both of them are the mild-mannered half of a duo, with the other half being much more boisterous and excitable, and are the most rational members of their respective families. On a meta-level, both even have the same voice actor.
• Oblivious to Love: He has a hard time picking up that Tina's into him, though later episodes suggest that he is at the very least subconsciously aware of it.
• Only Sane Man: While Jimmy Jr. isn't very bright himself, he's clearly smarter and less dysfunctional than the rest of his family. He isn't as petty or egotistical as his father, lacks the twins' dependency issues and Cloudcuckoolander tendencies, and unlike his brothers it's pretty clear that he sees Jimmy Sr. for the asshole he truly is. In short, for a member of the Pesto family he's pretty well-adjusted.
• Parent with New Paramour: He thinks his mother's new "friend" Allen is "okay".
• Red Oni, Blue Oni: The calmer and quieter blue to Zeke's loud and boisterous red.
• Sensitive Guy and Manly Man: The Sensitive Guy to Zeke's Manly Man.
• Sexy Flaw: Tina sees his lisp as this. In "Ain't Miss Debatin'", she confesses she has a thing for boys with speech impediments in general.
• Skipping School: In both "Bad Tina" and "FOMO You Didn't", the latter of which reveals he regularly does this.
• Speech-Impeded Love Interest: For Tina.
• Speech Impediment: Has a very pronounced lisp. Lampshaded by Tina in "The Unnatural".
• Strong Family Resemblance: Fittingly, he heavily resembles a younger Jimmy Pesto, primarily in facial structure. He also heavily resembles his brothers.
• Stylistic Suck: While he's a decent to above-average dancer, he's occasionally dabbled in singing and poetry with much less success. Sometimes it's so bad it borders on the edge of Cringe Comedy.
  • His "T-I-N-A" song in "Two For Tina" is bland, repetitive (all four lines relate to taking someone's breath away), and poorly-paced (the final line is way too long compared to the rest of the song), completely failing to impress Tina (who normally is head over heels for him).
  • His "musoems" (poems set to music—literally just songs) from "Ex Mach Tina" are so awful the students can barely even watch him embarrass himself, with only one of them turning out to be decent (it's about a game of catch that can be interpreted as being about his father's expectations, and even that's moreso Zeke's interpretation of it than what Jimmy Jr. actually intended).
  • In "Wag the Song", his collaboration with Zeke for the new school anthem is redundant ("Wagstaff, Wagstaff, you're a school!") and laden with poorly-planned lyrics ("I wanna be inside of you!")... yet it somehow wins the competition because the other songs are even worse.
• Technician vs. Performer: He's the performer (dances how he feels) to Josh's technician (has been taking ballet for years), best shown during their dance battle.
  • When he takes a professional dance seminar, his tendency to dance how he feels and add flair to his dance moves conflicts heavily with the instructor's belief that dance is basically a rigid, structured art form that cannot be experimented with, leading to the instructor criticizing Jimmy Jr. each time he tries. It's deconstructed in that Tina and Zeke are worried that the instructor's beliefs and jerkass nature will kill whatever passion Jimmy Jr. has for dancing.
• Those Two Guys: With Zeke, much to Tina's annoyance (as this means Jimmy Jr. is never alone for her to be with). When the two are faced with the prospect of separation in "Yes Without My Zeke", Jimmy Jr. is clearly distraught.
• Too Dumb to Live: Thinks dancing around wildly with scissors is a good idea.
• Took a Level in Jerkass: He seems to be more prone to the Jerkass Ball as the seasons go on. Tellingly, it's gotten to the point where not even Tina can excuse his worst actions.
• Unrequited Love Switcheroo: Nearly every time he actually starts showing interest in Tina, it's when she's moved on from him, and vice-versa. "The Belchies" is a prime example—Tina spends most of the episode crushing on him while Jimmy Jr. is completely unaware, then she rejects him when he decides he does like her, then Tina falls for him again as he walks away.
• "Well Done, Son" Guy: During "Work Hard or Die Trying, Girl", his father gives a rare congrats to him on his acting, which Jimmy Jr. genuinely enjoys hearing.
• What Does She See in Him?: He's ditzy (and not in the endearing way), he frequently ignores Tina until she ignores him back, and as "V for Valentine-detta" shows he's capable of being pretty nasty towards her. As a result, the Belchers don't know why Tina likes him so much, and have more than once said as much.
• Will They or Won't They?: With Tina. They've kissed, they've gone on dates, both of them have all but stated their feelings for each other... and in spite of this, they still have yet to ever undergo a Relationship Upgrade, with any progress made reset to square one by the next episode. All that said, it's deconstructed as well—the lack of relationship is framed as Jimmy Jr. being unwilling to commit and practically ignoring Tina until she's with another guy. Additionally, the Belchers all think that Jimmy Jr. is just leading Tina on and are skeptical of him as a result.

Andy and Ollie Pesto

Andy and Ollie Pesto

Ollie: "Back to you, Andy!" Andy: "Back to you, Ollie!" Ollie: "Back to you, Andy!" Andy: "Back to you, Ollie!"

Ollie voiced by: Sarah Silverman
Andy voiced by: Laura Silverman

Jimmy Pesto's younger twin sons, who are overly-attached to each other. Though they consider Louise their best friend, even after Character Development Louise rarely treats them as anything more than an afterthought.

---

• Always Identical Twins: Aside from their haircut and clothing, they look exactly the same.
• Ambiguously Gay: They're occasionally suggested to be attracted to each other. For instance, they share a bed and regularly hold hands.
• Berserk Button:
  • Being separated from each other. As seen in "Carpe Museum", trying to do this results in a full-blown meltdown from both of them.
  • Mistaking one twin for the other. Louise doing this singlehandedly costs her the twins' votes in "The Millie-churian Candidate".
• Broken Pedestal: In "The Millie-churian Candidate", after Louise ruins Jimmy Jr.'s reputation through misfired advertisements, the twins beg each other not to become like their older brother. It doesn't seem to stick, though.
• Cheerful Child: They're normally very upbeat and actually making them sad or angry takes a lot of effort.
• Color-Coded Characters: Ollie wears a dark mustard yellow shirt while Andy wears a sky blue shirt. Aside from their hairstyles, this is the easiest way to tell them apart.
• Cloudcuckoolanders: They say and do random stuff.
• Creepy Child: Ollie shows shades of this in later seasons, claiming he knows when everyone will die in "The Taking of Funtime One-Two-Three" and that seeing a dead squirrel made him feel nothing in "Yurty Rotten Scoundrels". It's the most characterization one of the twins has gotten independent of the other.
• Creepy Twins: Mr. Fischoeder and Ms. LaBonz certainly think so; the former has called them such verbatim.
• Cute, but Cacophonic: Both of them, though Ollie's voice can come off as the more grating of the two.
• Demoted to Extra: Once Rudy took their place as Louise's friend, the twins' importance to the series dropped dramatically, and they appear much less often.
• The Ditz: They both make Teddy look like a Harvard graduate.
• The Dividual: To the point where being assigned separate partners on a field trip causes them to have an emotional breakdown.
• Don't Split Us Up: They threw a temper tantrum when they weren't assigned to each other as partners for a field trip in "Carpe Museum". Mr. Frond has to hastily rewrite the buddy list to avert catastrophe, after which they immediately calm down.
• Everyone Is Related: They debut in "Art Crawl" as Louise's pawns of the week and have minor cameos at the end of "Spaghetti Western & Meatballs", but it's not until "Burger Wars" (their second major appearance and third overall) that they're revealed to be Jimmy Pesto's sons (their surname is never mentioned in either of the former two episodes, not even in the credits)^note This has to do with the difference between production and broadcast order—production-wise "Burger Wars" came first, and "Art Crawl" never mentioned the twins' background because it assumed viewers would recognize the twins from "Burger Wars". This meant that when the Season 1 broadcast order differed from production order (with "Art Crawl" airing two episodes before "Burger Wars"), the Pesto twins debuted without getting a proper introduction beyond their first names.
• Expy: They seem to be of Walter and Perry from Loren Bouchard's previous show Home Movies, with both sets being Cloudcuckoolanders in a bizarrely codependent and vaguely romantic relationship.
• Finishing Each Other's Sentences: Often.
• Foil: They're both this to Louise.
  • They are both the youngest members of their respective families.
  • The twins are gullible and naïve; Louise is manipulative and smart.
  • Both the twins and Louise highly look up to their respective fathers, but the twins do this out of ignorance to Jimmy Pesto's neglectful attitude while Louise does this out of clear respect for Bob's efforts; additionally, the twins are very open with their affection for their father, while Louise tends to not show her affection for her father unless they're alone.
  • Related to the above—the twins, despite their idolatry of their father, aren't actually very close to him, and it's made clear that Jimmy Pesto is even more distant to them than he is to Jimmy Jr.; Louise, meanwhile, is very close to her father, and between her siblings it's arguable that Bob has the best relationship with her.
• Freudian Excuse: Their dependence on each other seems to stem from their father's neglectful attitude.
• Halloween Costume Characterization: Their costumes in Halloween episodes are always based around pairs (i.e. jars of peanut butter and jelly, salt and pepper shakers, and even each other), reflecting how the two are dependent on each other.
• Hidden Depths: Amazingly for someone who's shown himself not to be very bright, Andy has memorized the U.S. state capitals, though his knowledge isn't perfect (he incorrectly calls Las Vegas the capital of Nevada; it's actually Carson City).
• Holding Hands: They do this very often.
• Horrible Judge of Character: They think Louise is their best friend, even when it's clear she only uses them for personal gain (tellingly, as she has grown more selfless, she associates with the twins less and less because she has no need to use them). Similarly, they idolize their father even though he's a neglectful asshole on a good day.
  • They vote for Millie in "The Millie-churian Candidate" even after she left them in a box fort to die in "Fort Night". Granted, they did this to spite Louise for mistaking one twin for the other, but still.
• Identical Twin ID Tag: Ollie has shorter hair and wears a mustard yellow shirt and green shorts; Andy wears a blue shirt and shorts and has longer hair.
• Identical Twin Mistake: Confusing one twin for the other is one of the few ways to get on their bad side, as Louise finds out the hard way in "The Millie-churian Candidate".
• I'll Never Tell You What I'm Telling You!: At some point you'd think that Louise would just tell them where they're meeting and when but not why, because they almost always end up exposing her latest scheme. On the rare occasion they don't spill the beans, they're so obviously hiding something anyways.
• In-Series Nickname: They have two, both revealed in "Touch of Eval(uations)". Ms. LaBonz calls them "This one" and "That one", not even bothering to remember which twin is which. She also occasionally calls them The Shining (because they're Creepy Twins); they're aware it's a reference but don't get it.
• Living Emotional Crutch: Based on their reaction to being split up, they seem dependent on each other.
• Loose Lips: Can and almost always will blab something they should have kept to themselves.
• The Millstone: To the point that Louise generally only keeps them around for the simplest of tasks, though not even this stops them from screwing things up.
• Nice Guys: They're complete morons, but ultimately, they are extremely friendly towards each other and the people around them, which is surprising considering who their father is.
• Pop-Cultural Osmosis Failure: Ms. LaBonz calls them The Shining because they're Creepy Twins. Neither of them understands the reference.
• Single-Minded Twins: Both of them think alike—well, if they're even thinking at all.
• Synchronization: Invoked in "The Spider House Rules"; after Andy skins his knee during one of Louise's shenanigans, Ollie deliberately skins his own knee with a rock to share his brother's pain.
• Those Two Guys: They are always seen with each other, and if one twin speaks the other always has an accompanying line.
  • Worth noting is that the twins invoke this trope—they hate being separated from each other. As shown in "Carpe Museum", they will both throw a tantrum if this happens.
  • "Torpedo" is the only episode where one of the twins is seen without the other—Ollie can be seen in the baseball stadium, but Andy doesn't appear at all (Ollie doesn't have any lines, though, so it's easy to overlook). Similarly, "World Wharf II: The Wharfening" is the only episode where only one twin has a speaking role—Andy has a line in "Bad Things Are Bad", but Ollie (while physically present) remains silent.
• Twincest: Thankfully not anything on-screen, but they're implied to have a romantic connection with each other.
• Twin Telepathy: Implied, considering Ollie can feel it when Louise attempts to steal Andy's candy out of his pants. Although considering Louise wasn't exactly being subtle (as well as the show's realistic nature), Ollie most likely just heard her trying to pickpocket Andy right next to him.
