Storyline

Welcome to Elmore. This quaint little suburb isn't quite what it seems, as in Elmore, just about everything has the ability to come to life. The Amazing World of Gumball follows the misadventures of Gumball, a twelve-year-old cat. With the help of his best friend Darwin, his former pet goldfish that grew legs and joined the family, he gets into all sorts of antics. He is joined by his sister, Anais, a four-year-old bunny with heightened intelligence. His father, Richard, and his mother, Nicole, are there to provide him support as well.

Alternate Versions

The Hungarian dubbing keeps shuffling the voice actors for nearly all characters, even if their original actors are still available. Some, like Leslie, Masami, Teri and Tobias even change their gender depending on the episode due to the dubbing studio not keeping track of who voices whom. The only recurring character who has retained her voice across all seasons is Anais, followed by Banana Joe, who's only been replaced for one episode.

User Reviews

Cartoon Network is coming back

This show is one of the apples of our time. I mean, so far, it has some sophisticated humor that makes us laugh, and it is on Cartoon Network. And it's current.

I'd say, it's Adventure Time and Phineas and Ferb combined with Flapjack. I mean, T-Rexes in 2011? That's not on all of the TV shows today.

So far, on Cartoon Network, not many shows are good. The Problem Solverz and Johnny Test are two of the things killing it's rating overall. But this show is something new, something fresh. Check it out! Protecting a store from robbers, wearing a dress to school...it's fun.
