The most annoying and immature cartoon on right now. - The Amazing World of Gumball (2011) Discussion

FTW? Really? Pretty immature for you to use that ironically. But I like all THREE equally. I love Adventure time, Regular Show, and Gumball. Gumball is obviously made for younger kids. But it has it's clever and witty moments. They're all funny in their own way.

look at his fake avatar. i think the older you get, the more gumball makes sense. they seem to have profound references. it's a children's show, but it seems they're either trying to force children to THINK, or they're trying to appeal to parents. Honestly, this show is hilarious. My 17 year old brother thinks it's mostly stupid but I showed him "The Awkwardness" episode and he was Laughing! i also like The Girlfriend episode. the ONLY THING I HATE ABOUT THIS SHOW, IS THE INCOMPETENT FATHER! he's not funny. the Banana joe character is hilarious. this show references a lot of profound topics that only older people will get. i honestly don't think Children will understand this show. but seriously, I hate the father character.

Hell, I love all three. I think the show's getting better based on the last several episodes that have aired, but I'll wait and see.

sponge bob is gay, right? also, spongebob is a stupid show. i tried watching it a few times, it was obnoxious, no substance. Gumball has a lot of profound intellect to it. it's supposed to be a children's show, but most of the references are for teenagers and adults.

I never liked Regular Show or Adventure Time. They're just... too odd to me for some reason.

I mean, yeah Gumball's made for younger children but I still find it enjoyable. It's one of the better done cartoons these days. And I grew up in the 90's too.

Most of the references seem to speak to teenagers and adults. strange for a children's show. This show and dexter's lab are cartoons that actually make children think and develop an open mind. spongebob? that show is terrible, no substance. i try to give shows a chance. Adventure time is geared towards adults, as it's right next to adult swim. clarence is strange, and so is adventure time. i can watch those two shows and not laugh. gumball, aside from the stupid father, is hilarious.

I think it's because they got new writers after season 1 and also because they didn't realize that the show was apparently just as popular among adults as it was among kids. So they started to make a bit more mature themes and references that both the young and older generations can understand (like references to modern video games such as Last of Us, Portal, Minecraft etc. As well as references to films the older gen. understands more such as Mad Max, Studio Ghibli films, Ghostbusters etc.) Heck, recently they even made a reference to the Stanford Prison Experiment. The show has surprisingly begun to emphasize more on dark comedy.

you could say that, but you'd look extremely silly.
Gumball is a good show, but regular show is definitely intended for an older audience and it'd be a stretch to say anything about it is "'teeny-bopper'y"

I love all three, however, Gumball is obviously targeted at younger children, so, of course it's going to seem more "immature". Sometimes it is, but it has it's clever and witty moments.
