Sarah in her funniest and creepiest moment

[garminibros · 8/10 · 6 January 2024]

Gumball it's an outstanding show at doing awkward comedy, and this one it's no exception. When Sarah was first introduced in the episode "The Sweaters", you would think that it's just another filler character like almost everyone in Gumball's school. In this episode we get a closer approaching to her, and we discover that she's stalking Gumball and Darwin. While it had some good jokes, specially on the second part, I think that Sarah it's kind of annoying in this episode. And what it's worse is that the you are supposed to feel bad for her because she has no friends. In fact, Gumball and Darwin are the best thing about the episode, and the fake fight scene was funny and cute.

8/10.

Stalking isn't funny

[veronicastetler · 2/10 · 8 April 2021]

While I like the fact that Darwin and Gumball react appropriately, initially, to be stlaked by Sarah the ice cream character, they then suddenly do a 180 and turn it into "well she doesn't have friends so we should be her friends :D" No, this is a REALLY bad message to give to a younger audience.

Stalking has real world consequences. It's not cute, funny, or a joke. Many people get PTSD from it. Many people end up being killed by their stalker. I understand this is a kid show, but being stalked isn't a good plot for a kid's show, espicially when they have the protagonists actively "forgive and forget" to try to be friends with said stalker.
