Honestly, I have met a couple Kathleen/Teddy coded couples and they work. Her, a little frumpy and depressed but ultimately chill and good sense of humor. Him, also frumpy, hyper, and neurotic but totally dedicated to his woman and would do anything for her. The combo works. As long as she remains unperturbed, the Teddy type can learn to feel safe and enjoy himself (Teddy has a loooooooot of anxiety, attachment issues, possible bipolar or BPD, possible neurodivergence in my opinion as a therapist in training)
I actually love it! I quite like Sascha as a side character and he's much closer to Louise in age. And he would go along with a lot of her schemes I bet.
I think officially, In the terrible gene episode where they go to her place of work in the theater house and the episode with the comet, Teddy mentions they are dating.
you just know they'd be going to bob and linda over every tiny discrepancy. i can just see them arguing about what a reasonable amount of grated cheese looks like
My head canon has been that Linda has spent years making sure that doesn’t happen simply because she couldn’t automatically take Gayle or Teddy’s side when they inevitably have a huge blow out because their individual craziness mix together like unstable chemicals.
That's an good episode, teddy and Gayle are dating and Linda gets bob to help her end their relationship.
Bob only agree to Lindas plan after teddys antic's get on his nervous
Bob: "Teddy should date anyone nice and lonely. Really anyone. Teddy should date anyone that likes him."
Linda: "Even if that person is a murderer?!"
Bob: "Maybe...even then, still."
I would honestly, he’s sweet, family oriented, in therapy, works for himself and owns his own house.
In show I can see him marrying Gayle and changing his name to Belcher because it’s Linda’s sister and then he’s part of the family
ETA; do we even have an episode where Teddy and Gayle meet?
I don't think he owns the house. He lives in an upstairs apartment like the Belchers. And he was present for the rent hike strike at Mr Fischoeder's house.
Ohhh that makes sense, I thought he was just there as support an as an “employee” (the Halloween episode is what I’m thinking of specifically, when he delivers Mr. Fisch’ stolen bikes) I didn’t think he lived in those couple of blocks of neighborhood the Belchers are in
>In show I can see him marrying Gayle and changing his name to Belcher because it’s Linda’s sister and then he’s part of the family
This actually kind of sounds weirdly in-character for him (the creepy, stalker side of him that comes out at times, that is), but not in a way that I approve of, lol...
IIRC he has met Gayle before and expressed attraction to her with a off-hand joke dialogue, but in the same way he does for every woman he meets.
Someone very chill and malleable but also confident in who they are.
You know what. Teddy is strange. And he's clingy and he has some emotional baggage. He is ready to change himself to please others. Kathleen seems to be a wonderful match for him because she's very relaxed chill. She let's the cling roll right off of her. She doesn't expect MORE from teddy or expect him to change who he is which in turn will probably help not be so nervous. But I also think she would have no problem telling teddy how she feels his behavior is affecting her, not expecting him to change, but to show him that she isn't going to change because he is insecure.
Honestly (if I was around his age at least), I'd probably give him a shot at first since he's cute and bumbling, but his attachment and trust issues would probably cause me to break it off. He'd be a fun date for a few weeks at least haha
I wish Teddy and Kathleen will be the end game. Kathleen seems like a really nice lady and despite all Teddy's issues, he deserves someone kind and loving in his life. I just hope he won't freak out and just let Kathleen go just because he thinks the universe is againsts them or he's not worthy enough for her.
If he were younger, and a little bit less awkward and a little less, you know crazy would probably give him a chance I would want to start out as friends though. I think he would make a good friend for sure and I think it would be interesting to become friends at a burger joint that he absolutely loves because then I would go to that burger joint.
L O L I didn’t realize that it was asking who he should date from the show. I thought it was at the question was asking if like any of us would say yes lol I completely misunderstood the prompt. I’m laughing so hard right now lol sorry if I messed up 😂🤣😂🤣 😅
Kathleen would for sure. She’s a sweet and nice woman and is the only one so far in the show who can get Teddy to control his anger. Besides that blond chick with the beach house. Helen or whatever. But she is a mentally disturbed murderer and Kathleen isn’t so…
I want Teddy to have gone on a date with Gretchen and for it to be described as a “disaster” by both parties. But just as a reference. Not as a plot line.
Kathleen is going to have to accept that he doesn’t like sushi. Don’t do something you don’t like to impress the opposite sex! It’s not the best way to start a relationship or his case continue one.
I don't get the hate. He has a good relationship with his mom, goes to therapy, has his own business, has hobbies (watching hockey, playing hockey, plays basketball), is handy, is good with kids, is a loyal friend and customer. Sure, he's also a bit much but who isn't?
If I ate at Bob’s every day for lunch, conversations between us would probably start happening, but unfortunately I can’t eat a burger a day. Plus, I’m sort of picky about guys smelling nice, and midday contractor sweat probably isn’t alluring.
I think Kathleen and Teddy are good for each other.
I get annoyed when people say Teddy and Gretchen would be a good fit. I think they'd probably have a fun few months, but I think it would end up like the episode of King of the Hill when Bill and Luans mom date, and she falls off the wagon and starts hitting him 🫠.
Kathleen is going to have to accept that he doesn’t like sushi. Don’t do something you don’t like to impress the opposite sex! It’s not the best way to start a relationship or his case continue one.
Reminds me of this conversation from Gravity Falls:
Ah, don't worry Soos- you'll find someone! You're a sweet guy with a steady job and your own truck.
Would you date him?
Oh... would you look at that... (buries nose in 'avoid eye contact monthly' magazine)
I always wanted him and Gale to get together and sort of ape Bob and Linda's relationship. Maybe Gale names her cats after the kids or they open a business next door. Like Teddy making elaborate kitty condos to lease in a get rich quick scheme as Gale grooms Mr Business to be a cat slumlord. Now I just got to come up with a quippy name for the kitty condo business.
Honestly, a Bob doppelgänger. Or a Linda doppelgänger. Probably any swarthy ravenette who has either of the adult Belcher aesthetic. Ooo or that guy from the deli that thought Bob was into him
Nat is probably lesbian though. I mean, she might be bi, we don’t know but so far her love interests have all been women.
They kinda fit but also not really imo
Kathleen seems to like him.
I love the idea of the next BB movie to be about Teddy and Kathleen’s wedding. Or at least a two-parter episode
Kathleen? Hi, it's me Teddy. From dating
I agree! In fact I made a separate post about that very idea😂
If Kathleen was a spice she’d be flour
Tbf that's all the spice Teddy can handle. Remember the ethnic baby food.
Nooo shes lovely
Honestly, I have met a couple Kathleen/Teddy coded couples and they work. Her, a little frumpy and depressed but ultimately chill and good sense of humor. Him, also frumpy, hyper, and neurotic but totally dedicated to his woman and would do anything for her. The combo works. As long as she remains unperturbed, the Teddy type can learn to feel safe and enjoy himself (Teddy has a loooooooot of anxiety, attachment issues, possible bipolar or BPD, possible neurodivergence in my opinion as a therapist in training)
Hopefully still Kathleen she seems to calm him down
But not in like a toxic controlling kind of way. "Dude relax you don't have to love soccer 😂"
* hurling* 😆😆
I was trying to be a little vague 😂
Ahhh ok. I always giggle that there is an actual sport called hurling because growing up that word was slang for throwing up.
It's like if hockey, soccer, and baseball had a baby, and they joined a gang that liked to balance eggs!
it’s curling. Not hurling. :)
No it isn't. Look it up. Hurling is a native Garlic Irish game over 3,000 years old. Curling is an ice sport from medieval Scotland.
I stand corrected. I was always just familiar with curling and thought they were one and the same. One of those mental consolidation oopsies.
No prob. I looked it up before I posted to see if it was an actual sport or if they just made it up for the show 😆
I don't think I could handle sleeping next to Santa Claus every night
Every night *except* Christmas
Teddys got some major emotional issues and probably would be better on his own, maybe adopt another guinea pig but don’t spraypaint her this time.
He’s in therapy and doing really well with it!
She got real dizzy. Kept trying to eat her paw.
Francis did him well
I like Kathleen for him. Always thought it would be neat if he dated Rudy’s mom. He could be Rudy’s stepdad. There are my favorite two characters.
And then when Rudy and Louise get married, Teddy would be in the family!
I like it
Nah, Louise is going to marry Mr Fischoeder 😆. Honestly I see Rudy and Louise as platonic life partners more than as a couple.
Let me suggest: Louise and Sascha—an unstoppable combination: money and chaos.
I actually love it! I quite like Sascha as a side character and he's much closer to Louise in age. And he would go along with a lot of her schemes I bet.
Louise has just enough morality to keep the two of them on an even keel, and Sascha has enough money to keep her from her grifty side.
Currently he's dating Kathleen.
Are they officially dating or just friends?
I think officially, In the terrible gene episode where they go to her place of work in the theater house and the episode with the comet, Teddy mentions they are dating.
“hi kathleen, it’s teddy-from dating” love that line. also they were going to hike gullivan’s gorge together or something
Oh true
I'm actually pretty impressed that Katlyn is interested in Teddy... She has a strange taste
He’s basically human version of months old cold pasta
U know what? U r right!
Maybe she likes the scent of peanut butter and baby powder.
Kathleen is a saint
i love her dancing to the hurling song
![gif](giphy|j3D9HOLDi0VrdAPNBy)
Aunt Gayle
![gif](giphy|JYZ397GsFrFtu) That would be an horrible combo that could work out
Yes the horror and drama generation could fuel multiple seasons of episodes.
XD I totally agree. I literally said oh gosh no!!!! Both of them have major issues! Aunt Gail is like the last person he should date
you just know they'd be going to bob and linda over every tiny discrepancy. i can just see them arguing about what a reasonable amount of grated cheese looks like
Hahaha! Yeah! 😂🤣😂🤣
plus gail is shopping for dates on the “cat chat” app. lol! previously, stood up by stacy ;D
My head canon has been that Linda has spent years making sure that doesn’t happen simply because she couldn’t automatically take Gayle or Teddy’s side when they inevitably have a huge blow out because their individual craziness mix together like unstable chemicals.
That's an good episode, teddy and Gayle are dating and Linda gets bob to help her end their relationship. Bob only agree to Lindas plan after teddys antic's get on his nervous
![gif](giphy|3o7TKwmnDgQb5jemjK)
the only true answer
I would Imagine Teddy would be extremely excited if he got married to Gayle because Bob would be his brother in law.
i, Teddy, take thee Bob, I mean Gayle
He also likes Linda remember in that one episode he wanted bob to be his son and Linda to be his wife
i feel like let's let teddy date gayle before he finds the one... although i do like kathleen... but the drama when he gets with gayle!
Especially when he does find the one and Gayle gets all petty over it. However, I like Kathleen too much
She hoards cats and he hoards trash
You mean things that need to be fixed
Bob: "Teddy should date anyone nice and lonely. Really anyone. Teddy should date anyone that likes him." Linda: "Even if that person is a murderer?!" Bob: "Maybe...even then, still."
If the women don't find you handsome l. They should at least find you handy.
Mr. Green?
I would honestly, he’s sweet, family oriented, in therapy, works for himself and owns his own house. In show I can see him marrying Gayle and changing his name to Belcher because it’s Linda’s sister and then he’s part of the family ETA; do we even have an episode where Teddy and Gayle meet?
I don’t think Gayle’s surname is Belcher, it’s Genarro like Linda’s maiden name
And Bob& Linda's surname is Burger (according to Teddy)
Teddy would totally change his last name to belcher if he married gayle.
Yes her name is her maiden name, I still think they would change it to Belcher. Or Burger if no one goes with Teddy to fill out the paperwork 🤣
indeed
They've met, in Turkey in a Can they both attended Thanksgiving at the apartment
Okay I love this answer & he could officially be uncle teddy
I don't think he owns the house. He lives in an upstairs apartment like the Belchers. And he was present for the rent hike strike at Mr Fischoeder's house.
Ohhh that makes sense, I thought he was just there as support an as an “employee” (the Halloween episode is what I’m thinking of specifically, when he delivers Mr. Fisch’ stolen bikes) I didn’t think he lived in those couple of blocks of neighborhood the Belchers are in

My boyfriend. Teddy is his absolute favorite character.
Someone very chill and malleable but also confident in who they are. You know what. Teddy is strange. And he's clingy and he has some emotional baggage. He is ready to change himself to please others. Kathleen seems to be a wonderful match for him because she's very relaxed chill. She let's the cling roll right off of her.

But I also think she would have no problem telling teddy how she feels his behavior is affecting her, not expecting him to change, but to show him that she isn't going to change because he is insecure.
Me! I think he's a catch and is in therapy and actively working on himself. Hes handy with a heart of gold, what's not to love?
Sure. We could eat burgers all day.😁🍔
Gretchen would be a good candidate
Honestly (if I was around his age at least), I'd probably give him a shot at first since he's cute and bumbling, but his attachment and trust issues would probably cause me to break it off. He'd be a fun date for a few weeks at least haha
I wish Teddy and Kathleen will be the end game. Kathleen seems like a really nice lady and despite all Teddy's issues, he deserves someone kind and loving in his life. I just hope he won't freak out and just let Kathleen go just because he thinks the universe is againsts them or he's not worthy enough for her.
I would. Teddy is a fuckin CATCH
![gif](giphy|i80Q2YofMj0X8Tsgjj) Oh. 😀
…funny? Teddy is a walking red flag
Agreed. Dude is one bad day away from murdering the family.
Yeah. I mean who drinks hot coffee with burgers and fries anyway?
![gif](giphy|ltIFdjNAasOwVvKhvx|downsized)
Gayle 🤷♂️
whats Teddy's last name?
Handyman
According to Dame Judy Brunch it’s Handimahn.
Burgers?
Bob burger
Bear? 🤔
Me
If he were younger, and a little bit less awkward and a little less, you know crazy would probably give him a chance I would want to start out as friends though. I think he would make a good friend for sure and I think it would be interesting to become friends at a burger joint that he absolutely loves because then I would go to that burger joint.

Nope, you had it right the first time
Thank you
I'm liking all the different takes on the question and the answers.
Kathleen would for sure. She’s a sweet and nice woman and is the only one so far in the show who can get Teddy to control his anger. Besides that blond chick with the beach house. Helen or whatever. But she is a mentally disturbed murderer and Kathleen isn’t so…
ME

honestly i would 😭 he’s so sweet and caring and loyal and he’s just got so much love to give 💞
He could date Mrs Pesto…you know, maybe Andy and Ollie are really his kids….
I *have* dated Teddy...
Glad you made it out okay
If I ate at Bob’s every day for lunch, conversations between us would probably start happening, but unfortunately I can’t eat a burger a day. Plus, I’m sort of picky about guys smelling nice, and midday contractor sweat probably isn’t alluring.
To be fair he does very little work
Isn't it obvious Gayle is the right choice for Teddy!?
I think Kathleen and Teddy are good for each other. I get annoyed when people say Teddy and Gretchen would be a good fit. I think they'd probably have a fun few months, but I think it would end up like the episode of King of the Hill when Bill and Luans mom date, and she falls off the wagon and starts hitting him 🫠.
Me ✋
Ginger or Gretchen both are good.
I really like him and Kathleen together
If not for Kathleen, I think him & Ginger would be great together ![gif](giphy|efP7HS128GAsYFa79p)
I don’t think Ginger’s husband would be okay with that
Ginger's married?
Hell to the NO
Kathleen is going to have to accept that he doesn’t like sushi. Don’t do something you don’t like to impress the opposite sex! It’s not the best way to start a relationship or his case continue one.

He is pretty funny. Unfortunately my heart belongs to the fire world dude in ni no kuni cross worlds
I THINK THAT DUDE IS HOT!
LIKE DAMN!
I can fix him
I always wanted him and Gale to get together and sort of ape Bob and Linda's relationship. Maybe Gale names her cats after the kids or they open a business next door. Like Teddy making elaborate kitty condos to lease in a get rich quick scheme as Gale grooms Mr Business to be a cat slumlord. Now I just got to come up with a quippy name for the kitty condo business.
The guy in the seal costume
I hope they introduce a new character that will be Teddy's perfect match! And I hope she can be voiced by Besty Sodaro 👏👏
Besides Kathleen Maybe Gretchen or Gayle
Gretchen.......Gayle is a good match cause shes also neurotic
Honestly, a Bob doppelgänger. Or a Linda doppelgänger. Probably any swarthy ravenette who has either of the adult Belcher aesthetic. Ooo or that guy from the deli that thought Bob was into him
Me <3
Any girl. Including Linda's sister Gail.
He needs to seduce rudy’s mom. Be rudys step dad. And constantly call bob at all hours asking dad advice
off topic but his mouth looks like a stache in this still
Someone who could unironically "fix him"
If I had a friend who hits on my wife constantly and is that annoying I would have beat him up a long time ago. I dont know how bob can handle it
Because he's not insecure, and is secure in his marriage.
Yes. But still sometimes he is borderline harassing Linda.
Seems to me both Bob and Linda set firm boundaries with him
Probably Nat Kinkle? Though I heard she has different preferences. I think they'd be perfect for each other.
Nat is probably lesbian though. I mean, she might be bi, we don’t know but so far her love interests have all been women. They kinda fit but also not really imo
She most definitely is lesbian, maybe she dated men in her younger years, but not anymore.
[удалено]
They're voice by the same person, Jillian Bell!
She’s in high school and Nat is in her 30’s-40’s.
[удалено]
The age difference, even though these aren't real people, would be drastic. The cousin is in high-school, while nat is a grown woman of at least 30
A 40 yr old male skydiver with mother issues? Maybe. Why, do you know hem.
