Yeah, they definitely pushed out all of the amazing episodes out first as opposed to a more even distribution. Although, this is Cartoon Network, the same company that aired "The Scam" in the middle of Season 5's run, so who knows what goes on in the officals' heads?

I agree that "The Diet" became so awkward and terrible that it felt like a completely different show entirely. It seemed less like a Gumball episode and more like a generic cartoon with Gumball characters slapped on at the last minute.
