Robert Lloyd Los Angeles Times Like the best cartoons ostensibly made for kids, it doesn’t underestimate its audience, what it might understand or can handle. Aug 4, 2025 Full Review Dave Itzkoff Slate I’m happy to report that the new Gumball—whatever title you want to call it—is just as cheeky, clever, and fascinated with rear ends as it used to be. Jul 29, 2025 Full Review Jen Chaney TV Guide The gloriously anarchic Hulu series plunges its imaginatively motley crew of characters into often heightened situations that are dazzling in their freneticness. Rated: 8.5/10 Jul 28, 2025 Full Review Fernanda Camargo Common Sense Media As funny and relevant as ever, this show should appeal to older audiences, especially those who grew up watching The Amazing World of Gumball. Aug 4, 2025 Full Review Chris Gallardo Tell-Tale TV The Wonderfully Weird World of Gumball is a faithful continuation that happily captures the fun and excitement of Cartoon Network’s original series while feeling more satirical. Rated: 4/5 Jul 29, 2025 Full Review Read all reviews

Avii P Unfortunately this show has lost it's soul and become something the original would have made fun of. Please don't believe the nostalgia drunk reviews saying this was anything like the original. I'm pretty sure its degraded this bad due to the 7 year gap between releases but I'm 90% sure it would be a lot better if Mic Graves the original Executive Producer hadn't left TL:DR. This can't even be considered half as good as the original Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 08/22/25 Full Review james w Love it 🖤 felt like a kid again Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/17/25 Full Review Drew V Feels painfully sanitized -- missing the absurdity. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 08/17/25 Full Review Taj M I can confirm that this is absolute cinema. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/16/25 Full Review Audience Member Best most wonderful show in the world! Every episode hits on so many levels. I missed it soooo so much and so happy to get to return back to this planet I think I‘m from 🫠 Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/13/25 Full Review Michael H This show is made for a new generation of teens but in pursuit of trying to stay relevant they lost humor in exchange for political preaching and shorthanded refrences. Its sad to say that despite the heightened animation budget the show really holds itself back in the writing. Shamefully disappointing when considering the original audience is old enough to watch Adult Swim, meaning the show could have did with less restraint. There are also jokes that overstay their welcome uncomfortably long especially when compared to the 1000 jokes per hour writing in the original. This show lacks the spirit of the original.
