Thanks for coming along everyone! I appreciate you being here 💙 what do you want to see next?

I'm pretty sure gumball wasn't made to be a likeable character and that's what I love about him much better than the protagonist that's usually extremely nice in my opinion

The first 2-3 seasons are mostly Gumball and Darwin being idiots and causing trouble that sometimes become city or even world ending chaos everywhere until all that trouble catches up to them in the anniversary episode I think but I assure you Mat the show as it progresses will become funnier and better every season they even tackle some real world issues and I think at one point make fun of Hitler

Gumball really is one of those "grow to like them" protagonists. I think even people who find him hilarious in the first seasons still might be a little bit annoyed. In a show that's like 90% gags though it is incredible to see the growth and character development from him, he really matures. (Damn, 1K likes? Lol thx)

Also, Nicole Watterson is like one of the most powerful characters in fiction

Gumball is actually supposed to be a dislikable main character because he’s so stupid and can somewhat seem like a jerk sometimes, but that’s why I love him.

Gumball Watterson: Masters the art of being loveable and hated at the same time Darwin Watterson: The enigma Nichole Watterson: The living embodiment of 'Power Mom' Anais Watterson: VERY smart and VERY adorable And Richard Watterson: He tries, except when he dosen't

if i remember correctly, the show took a season to find it's footing, but it's absolutely worth sticking with it Or, just check some later epiosdes out, some are down right brilliant

Fun fact: originally, the concept for TAWOG was an adult cartoon about a remedial school for rejected cartoon characters, hence the wide variety of different animation styles for the characters. Apparently the network decided the concept was too depressing, so they reworked it into a kids show, but its origins as an adult one still shine through quite a bit. XD

I would recommend reacting to the more recent seasons as I find them more funny and have more songs to enjoy.

Aw man, I love Gumball. Although it's absurdly weird to watch it in english after spending my whole childhood watching the brazilian version lol

"It's only 25 bucks!" Truly the words of the bourgeoisie.

Season one was definitely an odd one, lacking in any of the standard visual gags and meta jokes that the show became known for. Once the show started delving more into the other side-characters it got really good.

I think Gumball is an honestly really accurate portrayal of a 12 year old boy. He’s annoying and selfish and bratty and dumb and gullible and I think that’s part of what makes him so enjoyable as a protagonist. He gets into these insane schemes because of a selfish desire and faces repercussions as a result

I love how the first episodes and season have this kinda dorky/dumb topics, but further there are really good episodes where they talk about real "things" just like global warming, bullying, parenting and even existentialism in that goofy mood they only know how to make

For me, season 1 is kind of…meh, at least compared to the quality of later seasons (in terms of visuals/animation AND writing). It gets a lot better afterwards, but you shouldn’t skip anything because there are a lot of callbacks to even the most obscure moments.

the show makes the characters aware it's a cartoon, which makes it funnier

I loved Gumball and missed it, I watched every episode. The Meta Commentary was always my fave.

This show was so prominent in my childhood and I’m so glad to see you watch it!

The show is about Gumball and his somewhat dysfunctional but comedic family. Most fans complain about how simple season 1 is (though personally that's kinda why I like the first season) but the show DRASTICALLY changes as the seasons went on

just for your information, the overall idea of the world of "the amazing world of gumball" is that each and very character in this show is a character that's been rejected from another cartoon. (this isn't really the case, but it's the idea) so all these rejected cartoon characters live together in a town called ellmore, that is the reason why later on every single new character has a new artstyle. it's also the reason why gumball is such a brat, the father is such a lazy person, the mother has so many anger issues and so on, each and every character is more focused on what's wrong with them, then what is right (except for maybe Darwin). I found all this out AFTER watching the entire show multiple times, but it does make me appreciate it more, it's probably my second favorite cartoon ever made (second to gravity falls, which I recommend you watch more of, it gets WAY better then episode one, in fact I don't even like episode one all that much)

Def fun to watch them mature, Id be so down to just see you do the whole series even though they probably sounds impossible 😭

Gumball especially in later seasons is a great protagonist. He is funny enough to be likeable and whenever he is a jerk it’s usually within reason or he gets called out in it so it’s a good balance

In my opinion, people give season one a lot of slack. Yeah Gumball's a jerk, but I honestly love that, I'd rather have a douchebag character than a goodie two shoes character, but that may just me lmao The later seasons are better sure, but season one isn't bad in the slightest and still has a lot of great episodes (Also another opinion, I think Gumball was a lot more charming/nice in the first season than he is in the newer ones) Anyway! I'd love for you to watch more Gumball :>

Oh man, I really hope you check out more of this show in the future. It's the funniest show I've seen! The level of self awareness and meta it reaches is unmatched.

i admit it's pretty weird but you just have to learn to embrace it!!! it's my favorite cartoon show of all time :)

YESS!!! I have never been so happy from seeing a notification 😭😭😭

I forgot how not likeable gumball was in season 1

I love Gumball is literally dark humor for children, hahaha. Most of the time they mock the good messages and values in order to make fun of everything instead, but still no character is shown to be in the right for being bad people.

“Accept it, be horrified, and move on” Yep that’s the average show

This show weirded me out a lot as a kid. It still does. But now it doesn't give me nightmares anymore, so that's great xD

Yeah, Gumball and Darwin are stupid, but they are also kids. Gumball is 12 and Darwin is 10, but somehow, Darwin is more responsible than Gumball and Anais is the most responsible at 4. It is kinda a running joke that the dad can't do anything, and Gumball and Darwin get in all sorts of dumb trouble. Anais and their mom are the only semi responsible people in the family, but even they have issues (as shown with the mom going crazy in chasing the boys through neighbors yards).

you should defenitly watch more of The amazing world of Gumball some episodes are like super dark compared to some lmao and don't worry, you'll eventually end up loving Gumball as much as we all do

You should watch some more gravity falls!!! It has a Steven Universe affect where It's silly at first and than it gets really dark

This show takes a while to set up the characters, and I think they did a great job at it. It does get better though, I would definitely recommend watching a few episodes from the later seasons! Most episodes from TAWOG are standalone episodes. They do have some form of continuity in small bits, but generally you can watch them in whichever order. Can't wait to see more!

Yeah Gumball was like 10-11 in the earlier seasons and less mature in a lot of areas💀 Personally for me, Season 2 and above is where the golden moments are, and if I remember right he gets better towards the end of Season 1, maybe early Season 2? Idk. But if you're still interested you should start there

This show is full on of both self aware meta and crazy illogical cartoon antics. Something you will learn about Gumball’s mom is she is a GODESS of RAGE when she’s truly mad and his dad is a GOD of LAZINESS that would destroy the natural order if he wasn’t. Yeah Gumball is a brat.

Have you reacted to Tangled the Series music yet? If not, I really recommend it. Specifically the songs Nothing Left to Lose, Waiting in the Wings, and Ready as I'll Ever Be

I just love you freaking out over Gumball reaching in to touch his facial bones. I was like, how is he disturbed? And then I realized: I grew up watching TAWOG do that stuff all the time lol.

"Watching THE AMAZING WORLD OF GUMBALL for the FIRST TIME gave me a breakdown" ? Seems like a yes.

Believe me, the newer episodes are incredibly chaotic BUT that's the point of the show haha!

This was my childhood, and I have seen nearly every episode and let me just say the episode get better later on in the series

I never thought gumball to be a reaction series but I kinda need it now, I am so thankful that I got to grow up watching gumball, S.U, Regular show and Adventure Time, these shows are truly something else 🥺💜 Ps. Don't fight the logic, just enjoy :)

The show takes a bit to really get going, kind of like The Office. But once they find their way with the show it gets really amazing

What's so crazy is that the little sister is 4 and yet she's the smartest Waterston on the show she literally goes to school with her brothers

This does not even begin to cover how surreal and crazy this show can get. That's what makes it so awesome.

MY CHILDHOOD

You definitely need to do a part 2

If you haven’t already, I suggest reacting to VoicePlay! Three songs I would highly recommend are “Hoist The Colors”, “What’s This?” and “This Is Halloween”!

Later seasons are definitely better that the early ones. In both of these episodes, Gumball and Darwin are both chaotic idiots, but in later episodes they’re often the “straight man” to the ridiculousness of their world.

my sister saw the title of this video and said "i bet he thinks oranges are spicy." just thought this was funny enough to share :]

I really hope you continue, I loved this show and it gets so much more depth later.

The episode "The Hug" is imo the funniest gumball episode and I really recommend you to check it out, it always makes me laugh lol

Great reaction! This show is gold! But it reaches that status in later seasons!

Awesome series . And the best part is that latest seasons even better then the 1st one

You know, I'd REALLY like to see you react to The Adventure Zone: Balance. Either some clips that people made into animatics, or some of the rad backing tracks one of the creators made for it, like the wonderland medley, the crystal Kingdom, the clock strikes 12 or the purple worm Maybe it's something that's a bit out of the area that you usually react to, it being a comedy D&D podcast that got way more emotional than anyone expected, but honestly I never see it acknowledged by channels like this and I REALLY want to see it

Wow I’m early 😳 we definitely need a part 2 !

And yes Darwin is a fish, there is an episode where the explained how Darwin came in the family :)

Almost at 200K subscribers bro

I recommend watching more of these!

do yall remember that episode called 'the joy' or whatever? the apocalypse sq one with the rainbow shit? it felt like a fever dream lmao

Gosh I love The Amazing World of Gumball. Such a treat to see these episodes again

Please make more Gumball videos, it's one of my favorite cartoons of all time

if i had to reccomend any other episodes of gumball it would be the shell the future those 2 are super good episodes which i absolutely LOVE

this show is pretty episodic at times, but it does have some overarching plots! Those mostly come in later seasons though. if you want to continue, i recommend reading the wiki descriptions and watching those that seem interesting to you. My favorite part of this show is its extremely creative designs and mixed media animation from just my own memory and nostalgia, here are what i feel like are the most important episodes of each season: 1. the spoon, the genius, the date, the car, the curse, the microwave, the helmet, and the fight. 2. the remote, the flower, the treasure, the flakers, the virus, the game, the internet, the world, and the finale. 3. (there's a lot) the kids, the fan, the joy, the puppy, the name, the extras, the fraud, the void, the allergy, the mothers, the shell, the pizza, the question, the saint, the oracle, the safety, the countdown, the nobody, the downer, the money. 4. the return, the nemesis, the others, the sale, the parking, the romantic, the uploads, the apprentice, the traitor, the origins I and II, the parasite, the awkwardness, the nest, the night, the misunderstandings, the blame, the fury, the compilation, and the disaster. 5. the rerun, the boredom, the choices, the copycats, the fuss, the vase, the console, the ex, the best, the worst, the nuisance, the line, the list, the news, and the puppets. 6. the rival, the one, the neighbor, the candidate, the shippening, the brain, the parents, the schooling, the future, the spinoffs, the transformation, and the inquisition.

I'd like to watch more of this actually. It's ridiculously nice to watch people finding this gem

I enjoyed tawog so much as a child but now that i understand the episodes alot more as a late teenager i feel like i enjoy iy even more. Gumball is one of the best cartoon network shows and it will always be my most favorite

I can watch hours of Mathew reacting to cartoons

I’m happy that someone is finally doing this✨

I enjoyed your reaction and critique of the first two episodes of this show.

Really would recommend watching episodes from the later seasons, that's where the show really shines.

More of this would be awesome

If you want to watch another episode with really cool visuals, my personal favorite is The Ollie, where Gumball teaches Darwin how to skateboard. There's a really cool change in animation style.

I wouls recommend for you to watch the newer seasons/episodes since they have better animation and sometimes even plots and I would really love to see you react to some of those!

Please i love this show sm id watch u react to the whole thing

If you’re gonna continue watching Gumball, I recommend the episode “The game”. It was my favorite episode as a kid. All I can say is, when that episode was airing, it was a good day.

I watched Gumball for the first time after my son went to college a few years ago. I've watched it all the way through a couple times!

You should do mystery skulls day 3

Gumball is kind of like regular show in that seemingly simple premises end up as massive adventures for no particular reason whatsoever.

You aren't really meant to like Gumball but it just happens because this show is so much like a fever dream every episode is different and more chaotic than the next and that's why I love it

Ah yes, my current favorite cartoon, The owl towel

See recents season, a lot of comments tell you why so I'm not gonna repeat, and to now very well the characters, but also you can go chronologically if you feel more comfortable like that, to discover little by little the characters in the show

Next songs needed: City of Love, You snuck your way right into my heart, brand new best friend, everything’s better with Perry, Fabulous, Disco Miniature Golfing Queen, backyard beach

you should check more episodes if you want! theres alot of character growth- and it just becomes funnier lol

Loved the reaction, recommend reacting to a couple episodes in the later seasons it wont spoil much and theyre a lot funnier and more creative

0:51 ah yes make way for the king 2:31 the fact that I still remember this episode perfectly says a lot about this show, honestly still one of the best cartoons ever 5:43 she's literally my spirit animal, her and Gumball. As you said he makes interesting choices but let's be honest he is the embodiment of all the chaotic adventures you'd do when you were a kid 9:35 indeed 11:28 growing up with this show, you learn to accept the crazy side of it trust me

11:06 Perfect timing

More please

Fun fact about The Responsible. In French the guy hired online was even worse. He said "I'm here to eat the baby" woops "to make the baby eat"

0:52 FUN FACT Gumball was an unplanned pregnancy that happened while Nicole and Richard were still dating and living in a run down apartment since they were kicked out as teenagers and never got to finish getting a high school degree Long story not short: Nicole and Richard were childhood best friends that eventually fell in love when they got older, but their parent's didn't approve and kicked them out. An unknown number of years passed and it showed them living in a run down apartment when they learned that Nicole was pregnant with Gumball. Soon after, they got married and moved into an even more run down house, which they built up into the home that we see in this show

This is is so legendary and so hilarious

This show was my entire childhood. I think it’s kind of beat at regular show but I still love both.

If you havent, do yourself a favor and watch the full opening for the show. So many parts of the world got shafted with the half second version, but the full version is such a bit of serotonin

I mean there not wrong always blame the Internet lol and you'll love this show they make alot of super meta jokes and there super clever too

The sister is like a genius in her house..

Gumball is a good blend of, meta humor, 4th wall breaks, body horror that isn't body horror, body horror that is body horror, dark humor and wise words sometimes in the wrong application.

Part 2!!!!

I love this show

Love how they sound so different now

i do recommend you watch some episodes of each season to have an general ideia of what the show's about
