User blog:CD234/My Gumball Best 10 Episodes (Final Version)

Hello! I'm CD234. I rewatched all 240 episodes in TAWOG. Today, I review my best 10 Gumball Episodes in the show.

Best 10:The Club
Gumball is distraught when every member of his family belongs to a club except for him, but while attempting to find a club to join, he rejects an invitation from the Rejects Club and insults them. Now, they want to get even with him. The Club is the best season 1 episode in my opinion.We got to learn more about Anais, Darwin, Nicole and Richard because this episode showed what clubs they were members of, but what made it special was when they all rallied together to stop the Rejects Club and save Gumball’s reputation.it ended on a happy note and no further damage was done. All of the family members were portrayed positively.The Wattersons are not a perfect family by any stretch of the imagination, but they are a lot of fun and they have a lot of heart. The ending to this episode really demonstrated why I like them so much and why I enjoy this show so much.

Best 9:The Nest
After a neighbor goes missing, the Wattersons investigate and find a mysterous egg. The Nest proves to be just as good as the series's best.These were some of the best 11 minutes of animation.The episode was packes with hilarous jokes, awesome characterization, and an intriguing and fascinating story all while boasting some of the most impressive visuals of any cartoon.Even though the episode's focus was on the story, this particular episode holds some of The Amazing World of Gumball's funniest and most experimental jokes. The show has been known to repeatedly make fun of the suburban lifestyle along with focusing on the many flaws of modern day customs, and there are so many of them. This episodes hilarously exaggerates the overexaggeration of the media and news, especially in the time of crisis. They also joke that because the turtle grows by eating whatever is around, it's gonna get Supersized in an American Suburb. They also include the shower scene with the goblin, and it's just perfect (Man, Gumball can really get past the censors!!!). There are some great visual gags like the shot where the turtles sink a ship in a Titanic style. This episode accomplishes and goes above and beyond Gumball's goal as a comedy-based show.The plot and characterization comes together flawlessly, thanks to the spectacular writing. The episode starts off mysterious amd eerie and sets a darker tone for the story.he Watterson family really shows that they love and care for each other despite their differences. It's really sweet that Richard and Nicole spend the whole day worried together about the mysterious disappearances, and the kids try and help each other find their neighbor and figure out what's going on. They also work together to try and fix the problem and it's very awesome when the Wattersons work as a team. That is why The Nest is amazing episode.

Best 8:The Faith
The Faith is about how the town of elmore goes to hell when everything mysteriously turns grey.When gumball and Darwin go to investigate they see that Alan is depressed on a mountain. His reasoning is that he is depressed in humanity's effort to help the world, and it wont get any better no matter how hard he tries. So gumball and Darwin decide to cheer him up with the faith song(=Life Ain't Perfect). This song is one of the best songs in TAWOG.The beat is catchy, the lyrics are perfect and the message is beautiful. It basically says no matter what, there is going to be bad stuff in life that you can't fix but you shouldn't let that stop you from being happy. As gumball says "theres war and fighting and the bad guy often wins, so you got to find comfort in the smallest little things". They end up cheering Alan up and ending the episode on one of the best lines in the entire show "Life is beautiful like gray."The Faith was a bit of a risk to take considering how different it is from a normal gumball episode. But the gumball team knew what they were doing. And it's things like The Amazing World of Gumball that makes me happy and keeps me going in the world of imperfection. So The Faith is perfect episode.

Best 7:The Choices
his episode leads us into Nicole's childhood where she flashes back to that fateful day she met Richard, right before her karate tournament of all things! We also get our first real glimpse of Nicole's parents who are your typical overachieving pressuring types who only care if their daughter is perfect (she got an F in gender, so she didn't get straight A's); this definitely explains Nicole's competitive and hardworking nature to want to provide to the best of her abilities. And then it happens… she stumbles upon this fat bunny stuck in a tree after getting lost in the way to the tournament, and thus begins the new life of Nicole Watterson. But what if Nicole hadn't met Richard on that fateful day? What would her life be like if she instead hooked up with Banana Bob? Harold Wilson? Mr. Small????? And a myriad of other small seemingly innocuous decisions relating to that day; many of which end in her death! It's very much like someone who took a Choose Your Own Adventure story and ponders what would happen if they didn't take the right path and get the good ending. Just like in Dragon's Lair, these alternate paths will end with Nicole as bones or worse! Sure, maybe Nicole is just exaggerating, but can you blame her? With how INSANE everyone in Elmore is, could you honestly say you'd be happy married to a banana or a hippie!? The last few minutes of the episode are what make this among my favorite in the series. Richard may have been kind of dumb as a kid, but he was very sweet, honest and damn inquisitive! Through his inane questioning, Nicole realizes that she doesn't have to live through what her parents what to pressure her with. Nicole finally gets to start LIVING LIFE instead of LIVING THROUGH her parents thanks to the big oaf! I don't exactly think comparing the moments leading up to present day to the beginning of Up are exactly fair, considering Up's significance as one of the few things holding 2009 together, but they are of similar quality and quite the tearjerkers. And yes, Richard and Nicole DID in fact get married because he got her pregnant! They do not play it for laughs, but for real drama! I can't imagine what love making must've been like with a sheltered man-child. Nicole and Richard don't just stay together to keep the kids happy or to spite their parents; I mean, those ARE reasons, but they aren't the MAIN REASONS! The reason Nicole and Richard stay together, in spite of their differences and every crazy fucking thing they've been through in life, is because they genuinely love one another as lone wolves who don't have anyone else; they also keep each other in check with their personalities to balance one another very well.
