What happens

The Amazing World of Gumball is an animated sitcom created by Ben Bocquelet for Cartoon Network. The series follows the lives of 12-year-old Gumball Watterson, an anthropomorphic blue cat, and his adoptive goldfish brother Darwin, who attend middle school in the fictional city of Elmore, California. They often find themselves in various shenanigans around the city, during which they interact with fellow family members, younger sister Anais, mother Nicole, and father Richard, along with an extended supporting cast of characters. The Amazing World of Gumball initially lasted for 240 11-minute episodes (120 half-hours) during the course of its original run. Episodes in the first three seasons are packaged as half-hour shows in particular. Mic Graves directed every episode of the first four seasons. A sequel series, entitled The Wonderfully Weird World of Gumball, premiered on Hulu and Disney+ (for bundle subscribers) in the United States on July 28, 2025. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
