While snakes have been depicted as a source of evil and temptation in Western culture ever since the Bible was around, saying the scene references the many depictions of Eve and the serpent is kind of a stretch. Just because it's the oldest occurrence doesn't mean it's the right one.

The coiling motion around Darwin's body, the "hypnotic" eyes and Gumball's way of speaking bear a strong resemblance to the way Kaa acts in the classic scene from The Jungle Book. These elements can only be absent in Biblical depictions; in fact, the only resemblance to them is that the snake is evil.

So far, it seems you are the only person to disagree with this. You don't have to like the reference, but claiming Gumball "doesn't even remotely resemble Kaa" in this scene and that the pictures "aren't actually similar at all" is just being in denial.

(also, considering at least three people undid the snake trivia, I think ThatGuy's "we" was a more general one, but whatever)
