Bless the Harts is an Animated Sitcom on FOX, premiering on September 29, 2019. The show centers on the titular Hart family and their daily lives in North Carolina. Jenny Hart is a single mom trying to make ends meet; Betty Hart is her rebellious mother; Violet Hart is her gloomy, artistic daughter, and Wayne Edwards is Jenny's laid-back live-in boyfriend.Bless the Harts is notable for several things: it is FOX's first animated series to be created by a woman (Emily Spivey, who wrote for Saturday Night Live), the first animated series since Bob's Burgers to get more than one season (thus breaking the network's nine-year losing streak of critical and commercial failures), the first animated series to premiere on the new incarnation the network's "Animation Domination" block, and the first animated series to premiere on the network since it was spun-out from Disney's acquisition of 21st Century Fox. It's also Fox Entertainment's first animated series.On April 1, 2021 , the show was announced to end after 2 seasons due to declining ratings. | |

| Bless the Harts / int_1282bf4f | comment |
No Celebrities Were Harmed: One episode has Wayne meet a thinly-veiled version of Guy Fieri in parody of Diners, Drive-ins and Dives. Another episode has a judge who has a voice and sense of humor uncannily close to Joan Rivers. | |

| Bless the Harts / int_1ba17583 | comment |
The Ghost: Violet's father, Don Reynolds, has been mentioned a few times, but his only appearance (in a flashback) stopped short of showing his face. Violet doesn't seem to have any photos of him. | |

Those Two Guys: Two men (Jimmy Lee and Charles Lee) have been in several episodes, commenting and occasionally lampshading the events happening in front of them. Usually while yelling, even in situations where the volume is not needed. | |

| Bless the Harts / int_4548bae | comment |
Teen Pregnancy: Implied because Betty is in her early fifties and her granddaughter, Violet, is a teenager. This seems to be averted with Jenny, who's implied to be in her 30s (putting her at about early-mid 20s when Violet was born). | |

Duels Decide Everything: The Edwards, Wayne's hick family, still believe in dueling. Wayne's own father challenges him for the perceived slight of siding with his mother over him; Wayne tries to fake being killed with a packet of steak sauce, but his dad sees right through it. | |

Perky Goth: Violet has the look of it, resists mainstream culture adamantly, and is into hipsterism. At the same time, she's not necessarily ashamed of her white trash family and reluctantly shows emotion at times. | |

It's Popular, Now It Sucks!: In-Universe. In "Pound Pinchers", Violet and David want to go see The Rocky Horror Picture Show, but when they get there, they find that everyone in town is also there, including Jenny, Betty and Wayne. Violet and David decide that Rocky Horror has become too mainstream and go see Eraserhead instead. | |

| Bless the Harts / int_fc33a507 | comment |
Confirm Before Reveal: In Season 2 "Mega-Lo-Memories: Part Deux", while waiting in line during Black Friday at Mega-Lo Mart, Jenny talks about the time she discovered she's pregnant with Violet while Wayne talks about the time he worked as delivery driver for dairy products. In Jenny's story, after everyone in the store discovered Jenny is pregnant, she ran to the back of the store to avoid confronting Betty and has a conversation with someone who was stocking up the eggnogs in the fridge on the other side and they can't see each other's face. When Wayne asks Jenny if the part of the store she ran to was the dairy section and Jenny confirms it and asks him why, everyone realizes that Wayne was the one who was stocking up the eggnogs and that this moment is the first time Wayne and Jenny met without realizing it, and it's when Wayne inadvertently gave Violet her name when he gave Jenny a violet flower to cheer her up. | |
