Joanna Watterson

Josephine Watterson, more commonly known as Granny Jojo, is a minor character in The Amazing World of Gumball. She is the mother of Richard and mother-in-law of Nicole. Gumball strongly dislikes being kissed by her.

Appearance
Granny Jojo is a pink rabbit, like Richard and Anais. She wears cat's-eye glasses with purple lenses and a beige polka-dotted dress. Being an old woman, she has wrinkled lips and crow's feet on the skin around her eyes (though her crows feet could just be eyelashes).

In Season 2, she is shorter, has extra facial features, shorter whiskers, a brown dress, and an overall grouchier appearance, implying she has aged further.

Personality
Josephine has a grouchy and somewhat lazy personality. As stated by Nicole, all she has left in her old age are cop shows and kissing her grandchildren, mainly the former. She is very dedicated to receiving kisses from them, even to the point of forcing Gumball into one with a kiss on the lips. She also tends to spend her days watching TV.

She also does not seem to respect her grandchildren whatsoever, calling Darwin "fish kid" and/or "walking fish" and Gumball "the blue one", but she might have respect for Anais, as she calls her by her real name. Additionally, she forced Anais to carry her heavy bags upstairs for her, which apparently took an entire day to accomplish.

When she was younger, she still possessed her grouchy and uncaring personality, to the point of telling her young son, Richard, that magic is all fake; this shocked him into screaming loudly for fifteen straight years.

Her parenting style involves completely sheltering her kids, or "stopping problems before they happen" in her words. She scares the kids into doing nothing other than sitting on the couch, eating snacks she prepared, and never letting them think for themselves to the point where they can barely think at all, which resulted in much of her son's lack of common sense. The difference between hers and Nicole's parenting styles leads to a major conflict between the two mothers in "The Authority".

Trivia

 * Clips of her from "The Kiss" have been available online long before the episode's original airing.
 * She seems to really like the TV show Sheriff McGruff. Nicole states in "The Kiss" that Granny Jojo has nothing to look forward to other than television and kissing her grandchildren.
 * She calls Darwin "walking fish" and/or "fish kid" and Gumball "the blue one", but she calls Anais by her normal name hinting that Josephine favors Anais over the other two kids.
 * Richard and Nicole leave whenever she comes to visit, implying that they may not have a good relationship.
 * In Richard's flashback in "The Wand", she looked exactly the same as she does in "The Kiss". This may imply she is over 90 years old.
 * She is voiced by the same person who voices Hector's mother, Mrs. Jötunheim, the Cupcake Woman, and Miss Simian in Season 1.
