Number of Episodes

There are only eighteen episodes in the first season. The official press releases claim there are 36, but those are individual stories. When the series premieres on television, two stories will make up one episode, ergo there are only eighteen episodes in the first season. Somebody keeps reverting my edit and claiming there are forty episodes. Please stop doing that. --HuntsmanTZ (talk) 15:18, 23 April 2011 (UTC)

Considering 15 minute shows are the new norm for CN and all the press releases are treating the show as 15 minutes long, I think Gumball should be listed as a 15 minute series unless the production numbers explicitly state that the show consists of 2x11 min. segments. Also, keep in mind that while CNUK lists Gumball as a 2x11 min. segment series, they also do the same with Regular Show, which is officially 11 minutes long. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.82.11.104 (talk) 02:00, 26 April 2011 (UTC)

Voice Actors

The Executive Producer told me directly that all but the three main characters would be voiced by London talent. However, somebody attempted to edit the guide and claim that all sorts of Americans were voicing secondary characters. That is not true. Please stop trying to add cast members unless you have a legitimate source of information. --HuntsmanTZ (talk) 15:18, 23 April 2011 (UTC)

????

Do they have different voice actors here in the US(the ones listed) as they all have a American accents, yet it is part British. Strange. Atum World There's an Acadia for that too!

What The Heck???????

This show isn't on the IMDb. I looked it up, and guess what? There were absolutely no results! Tell those stupid gay IMDbers that they missed something, okay? Atum World There's an Acadia for that too!

Part nostalgic?

I saw some shorts on Boomerang and thought the backdrop looked like real film, albeit of 1950s-70s ranch-style houses and lawns. I am making the suggestion that someone who knows about this should explain this in the article (and thus improve the article); I do not have the foggiest idea of where to even start to research this information and my computer skills suck.

Hello, I would like to edit The Amazing World of Gumball. It is a short edit. Here are the things I will edit/add:

Characters

Waterson Family

  • Gumball Watterson (voiced by Logan Grove): The main and titular character. A twelve year old cat with an epic flair for misadventure. No matter how badly his plans go, his unbounded optimism prevents him from learning any lessons. He attends Elmore Junior High and has a crush on Penny, the antlered peanut.
  • Darwin Watterson (voiced by Kwesi Boakye): Formerly Gumball's pet fish, he grew legs one day and became fast friends with Gumball. He subsequently became a member of the family. Due to his sudden introduction into the world, his world view is somewhat skewed and he tends to be more naïve than other characters. He attends Elmore Junior High alongside Gumball.
  • Anais Watterson (voiced by Kyla Rae Kowalewski): A prodigy at only four years old, she is a rabbit who is considered to be the youngest and smartest character on the show, often being called a genius and attending school with her much older brother. Gumball resents the fact that she is always telling him what to do, but deep down, he knows that she is usually right.
  • Nicole Watterson (voiced by Teresa Gallagher): A working cat mother who works long hours at the rainbow factory. She is the only responsible member of the family. She has a short temper and can get quite angry, and is also competitive by nature.
  • Richard Watterson (voiced by Dan Russell): A massive rabbit and a stay at home father, he does not appear to have any degree of responsibility. He usually just spends all of his time watching television and playing video games, occasionally not even bothering to get dressed. He has a large appetite and is a voracious eater.

 Not done Listing all of the characters would violate WP:IINFO. The listings you gave also have inappropriate unencyclopedic tone (e.g. "his unbounded optimism prevents him from learning any lessons"). Ten Pound Hammer, his otters and a clue-bat • 22:19, 21 August 2011 (UTC)

It's not notable that they mix several styles?

One of the things that i notice the most about Gumball is how they used so many different styles and techiniques for the different characters (stylized cell animation, cgi puppet, realistic CGI etc); is that somthing that isn't noticeable enough to be mentioned in the article? --TiagoTiago (talk) 21:17, 17 January 2012 (UTC)

THAT SHOW SUCKS!!!!

I hate that show! The colors are way too bright! The colors in The Amazing World of Gumball are way brighter than the ones in The Problem Solverz!! Let me make this clear, THE PROBLEM SOLVERZ AND THE AMAZING WORLD OF GUMBALL SHOULD'VE BEEN ON ADULT SWIM!!!! The Problem Solverz and The Amazing World of Gumball burned my eyes and gave me seizures. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 50.8.27.98 (talk) 15:47, 7 April 2013 (UTC)
