The episode featured guest performances by David Herman, Andy Kindler, Larry Murphy and Brian Posehn.
He joins his father and sister on the couch, which does not sit well with Louise as she feels Gene is encroaching on her special time with Bob.
Lastly, he suspects the only reason Linda wanted the responsibility was so she can one-up one of her PTA rivals, Colleen Caviello, who made baked ziti for the same fundraiser the previous year that everybody enjoyed.
Louise decides to see if Bob wants to play Burn Unit that evening, which includes a Spanish-language airing of Beetlejuice.
Bob instead shows Louise a major purchase he made that day: a DVD box set of all of the "Banjo" films.
She told Bob she had to call in several favors (two, to be exact) to get the job and to punish everyone involved she was taking the "Banjo" box set and locking it in her jewelry drawer.
Tina, meanwhile, is greatly upset to the point where she cannot do her job downstairs in the restaurant, so she locks up for the day not realizing customers were still inside.
At the fundraiser, Linda is forced to sit and stew while Colleen Caviello continues to brag about last year's dinner.
In its original American broadcasting, "Spaghetti Western and Meatballs" was viewed by an estimated 4.65 million viewers and received a 2.2 rating/6% share among adults between the ages of 18 and 49, an increase from last episode.
Probably the best comes primarily from Bob's Burgers' somewhat underrated animation department, when Linda flashes back to last year's school fundraiser and the terror of slow-motion mothers complimenting a rival with their mouths full.
It is utterly absurd, and it lasts long enough that it threatens to move into Family Guy-esque anti-humor, but it's built up and delivered brilliantly and is probably my favorite single bit of the night.
