I've watched some episodes of The Amazing World of Gumball and it's absolutely brilliant. This is one of the best cartoons I've ever watched. It's also very funny and bizarre.
My favourite character is Richard Walterson because he is the funniest character I've ever met. He's an absolute gas.
I'm nearly 27 years old and I'm still watching this cartoon.

Not only is the animation an amazing blend of everything (CG, flash, stop-motion, traditional and some live-action) But this show is really damn funny. Gumball humor can go all over the place and still be really funny. Gumball and Darwin are a great duo and work off each other pretty well. The rest of the family are pretty good to but the one who takes the cake (and eats it to)is the dad, I know the dumb dad cliché is way too common But Richard is really a cut above the rest. The side characters are nothing to sneeze at to, Principal Brown gets some good quips in, Mr.Small is a hippie guidance counselor, The robot is a fan favorite, The ghost girl is cute, and Penny gumball's crush is more than just some token love interest. Anyways I'm just gonna recommend so episodes to give you an idea what kinda show Gumball is. The Fraud, The Law, The Check, The Shell, The Bus, The question and The origins part 1&2.
I am a 42 year old man and this show makes me lol consistently. This show is clearly written for me. There are a lot of jokes that will fly directly above the heads of its target audience and at least make me crack a smile, usually laugh, and sometimes raise an eyebrow. If you haven't you owe it to yourself to at least check it out.

This show is very entertaining, even for an adult. The innuendos are the funny part. The humour is directed at children below the ages of 13, but it makes the show a great timepassing tool nonetheless.
The art style progressively gets brighter and less "eye candy" than it was in the first and second seasons. It aged like SpongeBob.
I'm a fan of this show. Each episode really has no ongoing theme except for some minor problems that can later show up randomly. That's what makes this show so entertaining to watch. Instead of clinging onto one episode, waiting for the next to see what happens, each episode begins something new.
You don't have to keep up with one plot, and issues having to be fixed and have to be drawn out into two or three episodes. You can watch an episode and still get the main plot and idea of it.
I saw the commercial for this show, and was hoping it wasn't going to turn out like Secret Mountain Fort Awesome or Problem Solverz. Although, I don't think anything can be as bad as those. But, surprisingly, it was quite good. I was like, "Here We Go...huh, this is good!" It has laughs, weird, yet entertaining, stories, and funny characters. I'll review the characters first. GUMBALL: A fun-loving, detention-getting blue cat, who could care less about school, grades, and hygiene. Gotta love 'im! DARWIN: A more-hygienic-than-Gumball, orange fish, he cares a tiny bit more about school, doesn't wear clothes (Although you can't see anything), and his legs are 3 times as long as his head. He is playful, considerate, and doesn't make sense sometimes, he is Gumball's brother. ANAIS: A pink bunny, about 1 foot tall, and wears the same baby sun-dress every episode, and is smarter than the whole family combined. RICHARD: Sleep loving, un-hygienic, sausage-eating, fat pink bunny, he's the dumbest and most irresponsible person in the whole family, yet one of the funniest people on the show. NICOLE: The blue cat mom who is always a buzzkill, represents the usual overprotective mom who doesn't stop worrying. I am gonna stop right there for the character reviews because that's really all you need to know, because it is Gumball's family. The voice acting, I thought, was great and hilarious. No complaints about that. I would like to say that I heavily disagree with all of the people who said this show was horrible. Don't listen to them, readers! You would probably like this show as much as I did. You will probably think the parodies of movies and real life are funny and random. Ben Bocquelet did a good job creating this show and probably won't be able to pull off a show like this again in his career (Sorry, Ben). I give it a 9/10 because it is funny random, and not trash like Problem Solverz. Thanks for reading!
