What Season 1 of The Amazing World of Gumball
Gumball Watterson is a 12-year-old blue cat who lives in Elmore with his adoptive brother and best friend, Darwin, a goldfish. The two attend Elmore Junior High, where teacher Simian wants to see them expelled. The first season gathers standalone episodes in which their pranks spiral out of control. The adventures also pull in Anais, their brainy sister, Richard, the lazy dad, and Nicole, the mom who works nonstop. Conflicts include smashed DVDs, a babysitting job for Anais, the search for a third best friend, and a pact with the universe. The series mixes childish humor with themes like philosophy and marriage.
