While yes, Richard does follow the 'dumb dad trope' I think he qualifies higher than other animated dads because of how you can tell he really cares about his kids. A lot of the other dads in that category are just flat out abusive (Homer to Bart, Peter to Meg, etc.) But Richard is just a dumb, well meaning guy and I think that's great.
You can't really say that because a lot of animated shows with that trope always pull the "actually cares despite his behavior" shit. also if you watch any recent simpsons episode they hardly if ever have Homer treat bart like shit anymore.
@@random.1599 Doofensmirtz? I mean, he's an "evil" genius but he does have dumb moments here & there while always meaning well. I can't really say for sure as I haven't watched Phineas & Ferb in a long time but based on Doof compilations on UA-cam, he seems to fit the criteria
@@random.1599 generally a lot of them, I described it badly. usually its a tough dad that isn't easy on their son or very open with them, but when the time comes they usually are able to show that they care.
@@TimerdonDWI he's not dumb tho? his whole thing is that he is an Evil GENIUS who is able to build things a dumbass couldn't. While he isnt abusive and does care alot abt his daughter, he isnt dumb
I think Nicole is the role model we all need in our lives. She's overworked to her core, and has to raise a very chaotic family, yet still powers through and remains a complete badass.
As someone who's been a huge fan of gumball since it first aired, a 3 hour long iceberg for a show that I held near and dear to my heart will be an absolute treat for me to listen in the background
3:00:22 I actually have a theory of what really happened to Rachel. She was sent to the Void. The Clayton short may have said she just moved away to go to college but I’m certain that was a false memory planted into the minds of the Wilson family so they wouldn’t think about why Rachel is gone. How do I know this? Simple. In the episode “The Void” it’s shown that any photos with people who’ve been erased simply remove them from the photo. And in the episode “The Upload” a picture of the Wilson family is shown and the wall, and Rachel isn’t there. Why would Rachel be erased from her family photos if she simply went to college? Also, in “the Void”, Mr. Small says the saying “gone the way of the dodo” despite Dodos already being in the Void. He’d only know this saying if Dodos weren’t erased from everyone’s memory, thus proving that those who’ve been sent to the Void might not be erased from everyone’s memory.
It's practically confirmed in the series now that you mention it. The creator made the decision to remove Rachel because she was "too bratty." Meanwhile, Molly was sent to the void for being "too annoying." It seems as if the writers were specifically trying to tell us this without a "rob-style" cameo.
@@nerdskittle123 Late but this was confirmed not to be the case in Darwin's Yearbook. The Matchmaker also heavily hinted this to not be the case as Teri remembered Rachel when recounting all of Darwin's kisses
Fun Fact: Jacob Hopkins(2nd Gumball VA) is now a current anime voice actor nowadays, check the dub of To Your Eternity, his role as Fushi, he did very well
@@ryanneholmes3865 and he’s also the new voice of Oishi from The Prince of Tennis, also he’s Shun Kamiya from Tribe Nine, Makoto Katai from Komi Can’t Communicate, even he’s Code from Boruto I do picture him being the new voice of Link for the upcoming The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom game, but that’s just me, maybe he’ll voice a character in either Tekken or Street Fighter, and I’m kinda have this thought that maybe he might voice Timeskip Ash Ketchum in The New 2023 Pokemon Series
the fact that you can see the technology developing throughout the episodes brings the show to life. like how in the first episodes with flip phones and the recent ones with smart ones. the occasional 4th wall breaking is also always done right in a way so its not obnoxious but surprising. overall, i think we can agree that everyone who watched cartoon network appreciated gumball in a way, even of we didn't realise it. its the kind of show that gets a new meaning everytime you watch it while you grow up.
Something I’d add probably around the middle of the iceberg is Nicole blinding Mr. Rex. When we first see Mr. Rex’s face in The Fight, both of his eyes are unharmed and working. But in The Routine, where we finally see his whole body, one of his eyes is blind. This could imply that Nicole managed to blind Mr. Rex in that eye during their fight. Realistically it’s probably just a typical season 1 continuity error, but it’s cool to imagine it being otherwise.
2:22:30 the outfit gumball is wearing in the commercial it's quite common to see on gumball products in Portugal. Almost all products that feature gumball feature him wearing that varsity jacket
In Spain as well! I’m Spanish and I’ve seen that design some times, one of them was in a card game that they gave for free in a kids channel magazine sone years ago. I still have the card game to this day
Fun fact: in the episode, the compilations, they actually made an Easter egg about the grieving where it shows a warning about watching a teaser for it but it end up with with the saxophone chihuahua instead. It’s a neat little Easter egg tbh!
I remember that lol! But isn’t the creepy pasta it was referencing called the grievening? I remember watching a video on it a couple years ago but idk if I’m remembering wrong 😭
It would make sense for Gumball to take place around the 2000's because every episode showing young Gumball, Richard is wearing a shirt that is a riff on Nirvana along with a flannel shirt. Since that look really harkens back to the 90's, it would make a lot of sense for it to take place somewhere near 2009 maybe? (Trying to consider what point smart phones were developed)
And in a flashback, Richard is talking about how when Gumball was born, it was the beginning of the internet. So I think it is late 2000’s or early 2010’s. So you are right and I agree with you.
@@highoncatnip_ I was suspecting around 2009 since that's when the first smartphone was made. That also makes sense with their ages and the technology around them in the show's present time. That means Gumball would've been born in the 90's and thus making the Nirvana and overall grunge style references make sense narratively.
@@FoxxyFire-HellFrost Smartphones were released in 2007, as far as I know, but with any show it's almost always set in present day, so I'll say that Gumball is set in present day. It slowly gets prevalent with every episode.

I think in the _Dad has a heavy moment…_ Richard is on a scale, which explains the title and makes sense since in the past he’s seen his large weight to be negative, like in the mustaches.
1:34:45 one thing that should be pointed out is that it's very likely that Scott Cawthon, the creator of fnaf, sampled one of the voicelines for Fnaf 2 from this particular episode because it sounds eerily familiar to one of Balloon Boy's voicelines
23:44 actually, Rob had another style change in the first two seasons, probably the most drastic change. Season 1 Rob was fully 3D, but Season 2 Rob was fully 2D.
One of the best CN cartoons I've ever watch. This gives thoughts....Did The Void also effect the show since season 1 which gave them different looks in the next season in-universe?
I dont think the void actually did that but just that ben and the team changed the designs cuz they looked better, but in-universe it could be the void
@@luckyperga Yeah I was talking about in-universe of the show which is like the similarity how DCAU art style change probaby a crisis happen off-screen.
my idea of when gumball takes place is the year each season airs, with my explanation of why the characters don't age is like in saiki k, where each year continues, but nobody acknowledges how much time passes
43:46 "One of the most prominent things that came out of (The Awesome Store) is a magic notebook, which has the golden Cartoon Network logo on it." Darwin: Am I a joke to you?
I absolutely love Gumball and find it one of my favorite shows in that modern era of Cartoon Network... Right besides it being Regular Show and Adventure Time...
The cal arts style thing never fails to piss me off. I could make a gif just like that with anime from the last ten years. It's called art movements/trends. You could do the same thing in the 90s with the "ugly" character designs on Nickelodeon and in the 80s with heroic muscle mann look of he man and gi Joe. Basically you can dismiss anyone who complains about the "cal arts look" as somebody who knows nothing about art and who is just mad at "woke" culture wars bullcrap.
I love that you did an iceberg video and on Gumball no less. I really hope you can do one on King of the Hill or Regular show someday, your videos on those shows are my favorites.
I LOVE the last episode because its a huuuge fourth wall break. If you think about it, Rob just wanted to save everyone by transferring them to the real life human world (we see him turning Masami into a real-life human girl). He knew the void was coming and strangely enough, he knew that it does not reach the human world. I wonder how did he knew that our world was safe? Imo hes more aware of Tawog being a show than everybody else, also when hes in the void, he is not frozen off like the dark dino (i keep forgetting her name, sorry). That could be the reason why he doesnt forgets the void. But no idea how did he gain so much information of the human world... hes been through alot. I pity him :( Also the ending of the last episode literally means everyone in Elmore is gonna die, probably. But i hope that the movie is legit and gives Tawog a happy ending, along with Rob, he really deserves it. PS why didnt the video spoke of how Banana Barbara gained her creepy future visions by having a burnout at work? Its kind of dark how a normally funkcioning worker became mentally challenged because of how much her boss overwhelmed her. The OP used the clip of the exact moment her burnout happend but never adressing it in any way.
Yo Jay. I'm clearing some stuff up. Pibby has Gumball and Darwin featured, with Gumball being taken by the void thingy, and Darwin not. Also, on Hulu, the "cut content", such as the Marvin scene and the shock collar, are in the show. Probably more but I'm only 2 hours in.
Turns out, they removed the scenes about a year or two ago, I remember watching those scenes a couple years ago. I also remember, at the end of The Love, Bobert actually getting infected instead of falling in love with a vacuum cleaner, though that might just be a false memory.
I don’t know why but I get so sad on TAWOG videos when I see comments like “I used to love this show” or “I haven’t watched it in a long time” because it doesn’t feel like this show is really that old. Maybe it’s because I wasn’t even 6 months old when it came out, or because I never realized how much I loved it throughout my childhood. I didn’t even realize that The Inquisition was the last episode (at the time) when I first watched it. But I am glad that there is still time left to enjoy new media of this show even after it (temporarily) ended.
i think this show is greatly underrated for the animation and comedy. i mean they have countless examples of 2D animation on live action, 3D, or CGI backgrounds or interactions and theyre done flawlessly
okay on the Gumrob thing I at least need to say cause I'm surprised you didn't mention it in that segment. they ABSOLUTELY play the nemesis dynamic like exes intentionally in the show and I think that's where a lot of people get the idea
@@bad_pilot13official why is it gross? you mean because they don't like each other? cause the enemies to lovers trope is VERY common and I would say a pretty tame fun idea when it comes to fiction.
Idk if it was Mike Inel himself or someone using his art, but when u brought up his artwork around the show my mind jumped straight to the nsfw creations considering he hasn’t done all that much sfw content with the ~OC
no, that was entirely his. Mike's work branches into a lot of stuff. Including spicy videos of nicole and human zootopia which has both a sfw and spicy version of the "yoga" scene
I watched every episode years ago and my brain must have been turned off just looking at the trippy animation styles, because i only knew like 5-7 of these, thank you for this
I remember the old promos they had on Cartoon Network about Gumball Season 3's status quo changes, they marketed them as "mysteries of Elmore" and listed them off as file cases. It was kind of a cool concept, actually.
2:34:14 something else interesting abt this entry on the iceberg is the person who made that specific Nicole video is actually the same animator that did the gumball as anime animation on UA-cam
How did I know about every entry on this iceberg before watching it. But seriously, this is a great video and I could not even begin to imagine how much effort this took
I think these videos are improving my attention span, started out with 30mins being long enough for now I want videos that are 2+ talking about anything I'm interested in. I think I might start reading again lol
i just thought the last episode was self-awareness of the characters trying to escape into the real world, and when they didn't, they, along with their world, ceased to exist.
i don't know if this is a fun or interesting fact but in Portugal there is a very famous chain of supermarkets that use gumball and his family has the face of their kid products (like cereal, chocolate milk, tissues etc.) and it's 100% official! Ben even came here in 2017 to promote it and talk about the making of the show :D
2:05:20 not a theme song but there is a Gumball rap song made for Polish charity hot16 challenge, it's sung by one of Gumball VA and it barely has anything to do with TAWOG in lyrics 'cuz they're about support to nurses and doctors during COVID and just the pandemic in general But that's a fun fact to know
About Mike Inel, his art style and animations are amazing but I’m pretty sure he ships pinecest or at least has drawn/animated a lot of pinecest material
Sad to say that Nicole wasn’t the only waterson that Mike made smut of. (For those who don’t know, Mike was called out a while back for drawing incest of the waterson kids on his tumblr… Not mad at anyone for not knowing about this just wanted to give a heads up.)
I hold a pretty libertarian view when it comes to content. I don’t really care about what weird stuff he makes as long as it doesn’t lead to any real world harm.
I don't really watch gumball religiously, I only knew every single episode he talked about because my sister watches it like her life depends on it. Great episode! keep up the good work!
Just quickly, regarding the sections you did for the character ships... I was the one who made their pages on Shipping Wiki. Well, except for Carwin - that one already existed. (And for some reason one for Tobias and Ocho... Don't ask.) If you or anyone else wants to contribute and expand those pages, that'd be super helpful!
1:50:44 I actually had the Bobert happy meal toy and back when the Gumball happy meal first came out! It was basically just a stopwatch that I used to time how long I'd brushed my teeth ^^
I’m surprised you didn’t bring up rob’s pigtail or the imaginary friend episode, but still, all of these that are inside the episodes themselves aren’t too obscure if you’ve seen every one at least once, but still pretty cool
I used to watch gumball all the time! I'm surprised the extent that most of the items on this list reawoke memories. I think I had stopped watching around the end of season 4, but I still remembered all of the lore up to that point. Especially that one teaser painting I was so invested in it.. Thus was a wonderfully done video!
@@Silverr_wispp No, it's currently on hold (yet its still being worked on) until someone that isn't HBO picks it up! It's not cancelled at all, just waiting for the chance to be broadcasted somewhere else since HBO basically let the movie go (for some reason)
I remember when the show was still new when I was younger, and I saw the new trailer for it, I love tawog man, In fact I loved it so much my parents disapproved of me watching it
fan theory i just came up with: In the Void, Molly is frozen in time, until awaken by gumball and darwin. however, rob is awake in the void before gumball and darwin arrive. what’s weird is that we see the animation for pilot darwin in the void, frozen, but we never see pilot gumball. what if pilot gumball was awake or even created the void, and woke up rob for whatever reason. it would also add a double meaning to “the amazing world of gumball”. Another interesting fact is that molly doesn’t realize she’s in tv show after “the void” but rob seems to know he is. maybe pilot gumball knew he was a mistake for a tv show, and told rob about it, telling rob to kill canon gumball for replacing him and banishing him to the void. it would explain why rob knows so much about the void while molly doesn’t.
Imagine being a little kid and seeing your OC in your favorite cartoon. That would have been mind blowing for me. Yeah I guess they should have asked first but then the surprise would be gone. Idk I think it's cute including fan content in the show
Apologies for the short video today.

Leslie canonically said "gag on my eleganza" and I love that for him
my idea of when gumball takes place is the year each season airs, with my explanation of why the characters don't age is like in saiki k, where each year continues, but nobody acknowledges how much time passes
If this video was made a bit later you could include the dream vs gumball fight
43:46 "One of the most prominent things that came out of (The Awesome Store) is a magic notebook, which has the golden Cartoon Network logo on it."
Darwin: Am I a joke to you?
The phrase "One of": Am I a joke to you?
the deliveries of "right, you're lying. i'm coming home now" and "ocho, what are you doing?" are so perfect lmao
I know
I absolutely love Gumball and find it one of my favorite shows in that modern era of Cartoon Network... Right besides it being Regular Show and Adventure Time...
The cal arts style thing never fails to piss me off. I could make a gif just like that with anime from the last ten years. It's called art movements/trends. You could do the same thing in the 90s with the "ugly" character designs on Nickelodeon and in the 80s with heroic muscle mann look of he man and gi Joe.
Basically you can dismiss anyone who complains about the "cal arts look" as somebody who knows nothing about art and who is just mad at "woke" culture wars bullcrap.
Finally someone get it
I love that you did an iceberg video and on Gumball no less. I really hope you can do one on King of the Hill or Regular show someday, your videos on those shows are my favorites.
I LOVE the last episode because its a huuuge fourth wall break. If you think about it, Rob just wanted to save everyone by transferring them to the real life human world (we see him turning Masami into a real-life human girl). He knew the void was coming and strangely enough, he knew that it does not reach the human world. I wonder how did he knew that our world was safe? Imo hes more aware of Tawog being a show than everybody else, also when hes in the void, he is not frozen off like the dark dino (i keep forgetting her name, sorry). That could be the reason why he doesnt forgets the void. But no idea how did he gain so much information of the human world... hes been through alot. I pity him :(
Also the ending of the last episode literally means everyone in Elmore is gonna die, probably. But i hope that the movie is legit and gives Tawog a happy ending, along with Rob, he really deserves it.
PS why didnt the video spoke of how Banana Barbara gained her creepy future visions by having a burnout at work? Its kind of dark how a normally funkcioning worker became mentally challenged because of how much her boss overwhelmed her. The OP used the clip of the exact moment her burnout happend but never adressing it in any way.
Yo Jay. I'm clearing some stuff up. Pibby has Gumball and Darwin featured, with Gumball being taken by the void thingy, and Darwin not. Also, on Hulu, the "cut content", such as the Marvin scene and the shock collar, are in the show. Probably more but I'm only 2 hours in.
is it really? i watch gumball on hulu all the time and never knew about the shock collar scene
@@Iris-virus Well I somehow do, I only use Hulu.
Turns out, they removed the scenes about a year or two ago, I remember watching those scenes a couple years ago. I also remember, at the end of The Love, Bobert actually getting infected instead of falling in love with a vacuum cleaner, though that might just be a false memory.
I don’t know why but I get so sad on TAWOG videos when I see comments like “I used to love this show” or “I haven’t watched it in a long time” because it doesn’t feel like this show is really that old. Maybe it’s because I wasn’t even 6 months old when it came out, or because I never realized how much I loved it throughout my childhood. I didn’t even realize that The Inquisition was the last episode (at the time) when I first watched it. But I am glad that there is still time left to enjoy new media of this show even after it (temporarily) ended.
Yeah I can agree
2:30:38
Richard isn't on the toilet, he's on a scale.
Hence why it's called "heavy moment"
Great vid btw dude, thoroughly enjoyed it.
Poor Richard 😅
i think this show is greatly underrated for the animation and comedy. i mean they have countless examples of 2D animation on live action, 3D, or CGI backgrounds or interactions and theyre done flawlessly
I can see why you hyped this up to be your best video! Amazing work
okay on the Gumrob thing I at least need to say cause I'm surprised you didn't mention it in that segment. they ABSOLUTELY play the nemesis dynamic like exes intentionally in the show and I think that's where a lot of people get the idea
Which is real weird and gross. Same with TordxTom
@@bad_pilot13official why is it gross? you mean because they don't like each other? cause the enemies to lovers trope is VERY common and I would say a pretty tame fun idea when it comes to fiction.
@@SugaryOats yeah that’s exactly why honestly
@@bad_pilot13official I suppose that's fair if you don't like those kind of tropes. I think it's fine if people do enjoy it though.
@@bad_pilot13official its fictional....get a grip..its okay if you dont like them.,.but dont be weird abt it
A 3 hour Gumball Iceberg? Sign me up!
I'ma just say that Mr. Corneal has amazing animation, and I wouldn't mind a series with that style!
“Corneal” lol
I approve of this video
Yo
Idk if it was Mike Inel himself or someone using his art, but when u brought up his artwork around the show my mind jumped straight to the nsfw creations considering he hasn’t done all that much sfw content with the ~OC
no, that was entirely his. Mike's work branches into a lot of stuff. Including spicy videos of nicole and human zootopia which has both a sfw and spicy version of the "yoga" scene
There was a lot more continuity in Gumball than I remember.
I watched every episode years ago and my brain must have been turned off just looking at the trippy animation styles, because i only knew like 5-7 of these, thank you for this
Gumball is hella iconic
I remember the old promos they had on Cartoon Network about Gumball Season 3's status quo changes, they marketed them as "mysteries of Elmore" and listed them off as file cases. It was kind of a cool concept, actually.
2:34:14 something else interesting abt this entry on the iceberg is the person who made that specific Nicole video is actually the same animator that did the gumball as anime animation on UA-cam
This show defined my taste in media and my entire humor, honestly. I'm so glad this video exists.
How did I know about every entry on this iceberg before watching it. But seriously, this is a great video and I could not even begin to imagine how much effort this took
this was playing by accident when i woke up and i ended up watching the whole thing afterwards
Remember the Cartoon Network actually made fun of the lost episode creepasta from TAWOG?
Not sure why Jealousy is considered a deceased character, notably on the wiki, when he’s literally shown possessing Penny before the episode ends
I think you're looking too deep in the "Gumball's final destination" entry, I'm pretty sure it was just a joke about him shitting himself.
I forgot how funny this show was! it still makes me laugh even nine years after i last watched it. Thank you for making this.
The fact that I knew about 95% of the informatiom in this iceberg shows how big of a Gumball fan I am. Great video!
I think these videos are improving my attention span, started out with 30mins being long enough for now I want videos that are 2+ talking about anything I'm interested in.
I think I might start reading again lol
i just thought the last episode was self-awareness of the characters trying to escape into the real world, and when they didn't, they, along with their world, ceased to exist.
*"The Amazing World Of Gumball"* is one of the greatest shows to ever exist.
*TAWOG* fan for life! ❤️
As a TAWOG fan ever since the show first premiere, this I definitely approve.
i don't know if this is a fun or interesting fact but in Portugal there is a very famous chain of supermarkets that use gumball and his family has the face of their kid products (like cereal, chocolate milk, tissues etc.) and it's 100% official! Ben even came here in 2017 to promote it and talk about the making of the show :D
2:05:20 not a theme song but there is a Gumball rap song made for Polish charity hot16 challenge, it's sung by one of Gumball VA and it barely has anything to do with TAWOG in lyrics 'cuz they're about support to nurses and doctors during COVID and just the pandemic in general
But that's a fun fact to know
I'm kinda surprised he never talked about the Walter White balloon from "The Bus"
I am pretty proud of myself for figuring a lot of this stuff out as a child
mad respect to this guy for making a 3 hour video for our entertainment
About Mike Inel, his art style and animations are amazing but I’m pretty sure he ships pinecest or at least has drawn/animated a lot of pinecest material
He pretty much draws a lot of henta!
So? It's fiction
@@LYNN-id9rb And how does that make it okay?
@@owo_xanax5200 not to mention the fact dipper and Mabel are minors as well and are usually drawn as such from what I’ve (unfortunately) seen
@@LYNN-id9rb real or not, its still fucking nasty.
Sad to say that Nicole wasn’t the only waterson that Mike made smut of. (For those who don’t know, Mike was called out a while back for drawing incest of the waterson kids on his tumblr… Not mad at anyone for not knowing about this just wanted to give a heads up.)
Wait who’s Mike
@@dopedoge3603 Mike Inel
I hold a pretty libertarian view when it comes to content. I don’t really care about what weird stuff he makes as long as it doesn’t lead to any real world harm.
The only one of his animations is Halloween where the girl is dead and walking with a boy on Halloween. I didn’t even know he did this nasty stuff
@@missinvisible in the case of that animation, let’s just say someone else made it, not Mike “gets off to incest” inel.
3 Hours of Alpha Jay,TAWOG,and IceBergs HELL YEAH!!
its crazy thinking about how i watched this show from start to finish on cable as a kid without even realizing it
I don't really watch gumball religiously, I only knew every single episode he talked about because my sister watches it like her life depends on it. Great episode! keep up the good work!
HOLY SHIT I DID NOT REALIZE THIS WAS 3 HOURS LONG OKAY- i love the dedication people put in these kinds of vids like omg u guys are amazing
Just quickly, regarding the sections you did for the character ships...
I was the one who made their pages on Shipping Wiki.
Well, except for Carwin - that one already existed. (And for some reason one for Tobias and Ocho... Don't ask.)
If you or anyone else wants to contribute and expand those pages, that'd be super helpful!
Ochotobi is now like ranking as a popular gumball ship...
1:50:44
I actually had the Bobert happy meal toy and back when the Gumball happy meal first came out! It was basically just a stopwatch that I used to time how long I'd brushed my teeth ^^
I’m surprised you didn’t bring up rob’s pigtail or the imaginary friend episode, but still, all of these that are inside the episodes themselves aren’t too obscure if you’ve seen every one at least once, but still pretty cool
Im very proud and honoured to know ive played all those gumball games and remembered them the moment u listed em , brings me back to good times
17:32 me being a 23 minute drive away from carrie’s house is actually insane
I can wait for the Amazing World of Gumball movie and the Amazing World of Gumball new season
I loved The Joy so much even if I found it fairly creepy back then, it's definitely one of the episodes I will never forget.
Looks like Jay won't have to call the reaper anymore.
As someone who only watched the show in another language, it's very funny to listen to all the changes of voice acting because I never witnesses it
Wow. 3 hours of Gumball. Worth it!!
Love the reaper avatar BTW.
I used to watch gumball all the time! I'm surprised the extent that most of the items on this list reawoke memories. I think I had stopped watching around the end of season 4, but I still remembered all of the lore up to that point. Especially that one teaser painting I was so invested in it..
Thus was a wonderfully done video!
Amazing world of gumball has always been one of my favorite shows. I always tell my family how deep this show really is.
Did i just watch a three hour video on gumball? Yes, yes i did.
And am i going to watch it again? Yes, yes i will.
I literally finished the show on HBOMax days ago and saw this uploaded.
Hoping the movie and next season goes well (from what I’ve heard)
The movie is canceled
@@reneewells2835 Nooooo
@@reneewells2835 Really??
@@Silverr_wispp No, it's currently on hold (yet its still being worked on) until someone that isn't HBO picks it up!
It's not cancelled at all, just waiting for the chance to be broadcasted somewhere else since HBO basically let the movie go (for some reason)
@@theghosttm8245 It ain't cancelled, god why does everybody say so smh
"It all began in the summer of 83"
Me: THE BITE OF '83?!
I remember when the show was still new when I was younger, and I saw the new trailer for it, I love tawog man, In fact I loved it so much my parents disapproved of me watching it
Alfa back at it again with a goated Gumball video
fan theory i just came up with:
In the Void, Molly is frozen in time, until awaken by gumball and darwin. however, rob is awake in the void before gumball and darwin arrive. what’s weird is that we see the animation for pilot darwin in the void, frozen, but we never see pilot gumball. what if pilot gumball was awake or even created the void, and woke up rob for whatever reason. it would also add a double meaning to “the amazing world of gumball”. Another interesting fact is that molly doesn’t realize she’s in tv show after “the void” but rob seems to know he is. maybe pilot gumball knew he was a mistake for a tv show, and told rob about it, telling rob to kill canon gumball for replacing him and banishing him to the void. it would explain why rob knows so much about the void while molly doesn’t.
Daniel Lennard being an executive producer and the character they thought was flirting with their mom by sending her beauty products is amazing.
Imagine being a little kid and seeing your OC in your favorite cartoon. That would have been mind blowing for me. Yeah I guess they should have asked first but then the surprise would be gone. Idk I think it's cute including fan content in the show
my theory in terms of time setting is that it takes place in the early to mid 2010s, somewhere around 2014-15
Fun fact about the sluzzle tag: Tag is actually the German word for day and Wurst is the word for sausage
3 hours of alpha jay? Better grab some popcorn
Great video dude. Fingers crossed for this movie. It’s starting to piss me off that it’s been radio silence for the entirety of last year
Wow.
You sir, are a madman.
Also cool avatar
This isn’t an iceberg video. Ur just explaining the plot of the episodes
booooo why are you so boring
Aspiocious oliosis
Oh boy I'm bringing out the popcorn for this
