24 Hilarious Gumball Moments That Adults Will Love
As someone who grew up on ridiculous kids shows like SpongeBob SquarePants, The Fairly OddParents, and Chowder, my sense of humor is geared in a particular direction. When I saw The Amazing World of Gumball was streaming on Disney+, I thought: What the heck, I'll give it a shot. And, oh, man, I wish this show were around when I was a kid. After almost seven years, the show has returned under the name The Wonderfully Weird World of Gumball. New name, same wild antics. Here are 26 moments from The Amazing World Of Gumball that got a legit laugh out of me: The Gumball creators love a good car crash gag, and that is still alive and well in Season 7. I immediately knew I was in good hands with this scene where Gumball's dad goes to retrieve a burger in the street and the situation quickly escalates. Gumball's mom becoming an anime fighter in one frame Speaking of frames, this was Gumball's immediate reaction to his mom saying, "Gumball, the phone, please." The older seasons have plenty of classic moments. That time Gumball offered a and awkward, secret handshake with Principal Brown. From the silence to the noises, it is my kind of humor. When Gumball and Darwin used unconventional teamwork to make their sandwich. Their pompous laugh afterward sent me. When Jamie Russo opened up Gone with the Wind, thinking it would be literal wind, but instead was Clark Gable as Rhett Butler saying, "You should be kissed and often by someone who knows how." There couldn't have been a funnier line for that moment. Also, Jamie taking wayyy too long to read the paper compared to Anais is wayyy too relatable and hilarious. (I'm Jamie) Gumball trying to join the swim club and just straight up drowning because he can't swim had me dying. The hard cut to his blurry vision was too much. Forgetting people's names is hard, and Gumball trying to remember this blue guy's name had me cackling. Everything about the paintball outing was iconic. Gumball having to leave a man behind was too much. The distant paint explosion was icing on the cake. Speaking of fighting, sometimes role play can go too far. Gumball and Darwin playing with their food got way too dark. This is a kid's show, right? Being a dad is hard. Being a dad and trying to talk to your daughter is its own challenge. Mr. Watterson, having an internal crisis on trying to "say the right thing!" to his daughter, was expertly done. What the hell was this "Sussie Song" even supposed to be? This show is so unhinged. Simply, the hard cut to this reaction. Gumball's vision for the play is every kid who loves them some action. From Indiana Jones to The Avengers to Mortal Kombat, the lad has vision! Gumball giving CPR to the gaming system and blowing on the cartridge was brilliant. Maybe the most clever joke in a show stacked to the brim with them. Gaylord Robinson violating international peace agreements and going back to jail was a whole experience. MAKE IT RAIN! (Making it rain with a check is brilliant) Darwin tells Gumball to "make a wallet sound" and proceeds to deliver the most Pokémon-like wallet sound ever. Also, both Darwin and Gumball picking the worst hiding spot possible, and Darwin proceeding to add a second bus stop is my kind of ridiculousness. "It's the glass ceiling Mom was talking about!" When the parents hijacked the school bus, and Tobias's dad was speaking with a voice changer, only for it to fizzle out and reveal his deep voice. The entire imaginary fight was a blast, but the eerie handoff of the plasma grenade from Tobias had me floored. "We gotta go. It's getting dark out." *Hard cut to a perfectly sunny afternoon* "What's the surprise?" *the tiniest boo* And lastly, and probably most popular, "Do you mind if I put a poster in the window?" What is your favorite Gumball moment? Comment below! Watch S1–6 on Disney+ and S7 on Hulu.

Fans outraged as entirety of Looney Tunes removed from Max amid release of The Day the Earth Blew Up
Warner Bros. has removed Looney Tunes from the Max streaming platform, continuing a pattern of content removals that started in October 2024. Along with Looney Tunes, other popular shows like Ben 10, Chowder, Steven Universe, and Regular Show were pulled without warning. Additionally, several Scooby-Doo films and two Tom & Jerry titles were also removed. Currently, the only Looney Tunes content still available on Max includes spinoffs such as Tiny Toons Looniversity, Baby Looney Tunes, and Bugs Bunny Builders, while the original shorts have disappeared. Although Warner Bros. and Max have not provided an official reason for the removal, industry insiders suggest that it's part of Warner Bros. Discovery's ongoing cost-cutting measures following the 2022 merger. Reports from Variety in 2023 indicated that the company chose not to renew licensing deals for several popular titles to reduce content costs. While some speculated that these removals could be temporary, insiders confirmed that these titles are unlikely to return. This has sparked frustration among Looney Tunes fans, who have called for greater transparency from Warner Bros. about these changes. Despite the removal of classic content, the Looney Tunes franchise continues to perform well, as evidenced by the success of Looney Tunes: The Day the Earth Blew Up. The animated feature grossed $4 million worldwide, showing that there is still strong demand for the iconic characters. Originally slated as a Max exclusive, the film had to be released independently after being shelved due to Warner Bros. Discovery's cost-cutting measures.
