I was updating Wikipedia and I stumbled upon this piece of news. Bob’s Burgers production cut ties immediately with the actor, and now his character has a new voice.
Everyone knew Jimmy Pesto was a piece of shit
Yeah, Bob tried warning all of us.
lmaooooo of course it was him
Laughing my ass off off off off off. That makes no sense.
Lmaooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
They don’t all stand for “off”.
Laughing my arse…
He was kicked off the show for this.
It’s so interesting how Fox News is this right-wing talking piece. But Fox entertainment is so different. Simpsons, Family Guy and Bob’s Burgers don’t give a fuck.
Different organisations with different owners. The name is solely historic at this point.
It was spun up in 2013, so for nearly 30 years, it was part of News Corp. I’ve seen a video about this dichotomy in the past and I remember none of it
There was no Capitol riot, only an insurrection and coup attempt.
These aren’t mutually exclusive
Can’t trust a guy named Pesto.
Well yeah, his real name was Poplopovich.
Figures he wouldn’t use his real name.
Baby num-num
I dunno, Jimmy Jr. seems all right.
Ehhhhhhhhh
I’m issuing a ban on all the pesto kids.
Andy and Olly are pure!
All right. Listen. You’re my fellow lemmy, and I love you. But you’re terrible at what you post, and I feel like I should tell you. I’d ban all of you if I could.
That is some attention to detail. The villains in that show are so authentic the actors who depict them are villains IRL.
Went down his filmography (and it’s a pretty long one) and didn’t find a single role I remember other than his supporting role on Bob’s Burgers.
But I’m sure some of you TV and film guys will remember his other characters such as Cop, Young Cop, FBI Agent, Agent, FBI Agent, (wow FBI Agent must have been a real hit if they brought that character back multiple times in completely different TV shows) Mustachioed Cop and Police Officer #2, Various, and Various Roles. I’m guessing Various Roles is some sort villain character he played?
I wonder if any of the real FBI agents who arrested him were like “You know Mr. Johnston, your portrayal of FBI agent is what inspired me to join the FBI?”
I mean his crime is not being a contract worker. No one denigrates plumbers for not fixing enough celebrity toilets.
I had loved Jay Johnston ever since the Mr. Show days. Used to cheer when he popped up in things.
Fucking traitor. I flip off the screen anytime he’s on now.
Same, this just soured my favorite Mr Show skit :(
The Story of Everest?
Bingo!
My favorite Mr. Show sketch 😞
It blows my mind that comedians, who are pretty much modern day jesters, are supposed to rip into nobility and the wealthy.
And whenever I see them defending a billionaire, regardless of Trump, Musk, or whatever boogieman liberal billionaire… I just know they’re shitty at their job.
Oh, THATS why he was replaced. Well, fuck him then.
I can imagine they addressed the change in the show like
Bob: you sound different
Jimmy: yeah, I had a piece of shit stuck in my throat
both characters stare into the camera
I love the show. But now I love it more.
I’m pretty much down for anything HJB. I wish he still had his van.
I guess if you have an outspoken leftist like Sam Seder in your cast, you must maintain balance with a PoS like this guy.
Also one of the actors in the legendary show Mr. Show.
Not just actors but one of their best writers.
He is proof that even right wing dipshits can be funny.
Or alternatively, that clever, funny, smart people are not always immune to propaganda and radicalization
I find right wing dipshits can be hilarious! Mostly unintentionally, but still
A very, very rare exception indeed!
Yeah, I was sad when I learned about this, he’s a funny guy.
