Why Fans Think Bob’s Burgers Is Leaving Hulu

After the Hulu app tagged Bob’s Burgers as “EXP” (expiring), fans worried that the show was leaving the platform. Because Hulu and the show’s producers have not issued an official statement, fans continue to wonder where the show will find its home next.

Is Bob’s Burgers leaving Hulu?

No, Bob’s Burgers is not leaving Hulu.

Since Hulu marked the show with the expiring tag, fans have worried about the fate of their favorite animated series for weeks. Some frustrated fans have even threatened to cancel their streaming subscriptions immediately. However, Hulu has no current plans to remove the show from its platform, so loyal fans can confidently rest easy.

The expiring tag is simply an indication that the show’s licensing agreement is due for renewal. Bob’s Burgers will continue to stream, and the tag will eventually disappear once the new licensing agreement takes effect. This is a general practice the streaming company follows, and fans have nothing to worry about.

This frenzy started when a post on the Bob’s Burgers subreddit went viral last week. The user asked if the show was leaving Hulu and shared an image of the Season 15 episode list with all episodes marked with the “EXP” tag.

One of the top comments said, “If Hulu gets rid of Bob’s Burgers, I’m getting rid of Hulu.”

Another user added, “Honestly, I’ve seen this ‘exp’ show up on a bunch of different shows over the years and not a single one has ever disappeared afterwards, so I’d be shocked if they actually pull one of their most popular shows.”

Created by Loren Bouchard and Jim Dauterive, Bob’s Burgers is one of Fox’s highest-rated shows. Premiering in 2011, the series has a total of 15 seasons. Season 16 is scheduled to arrive on Sunday, September 28, 2025.
