Thread 149798859

So why is this a whole new show? It's pretty much the same as the old one, it could've easily been The Amazing World of Gumball Season 7.

Because if you search up "the amazing" your search results are going to lead you to a more prominent animation shows content and direct you away from seeing Gumball content

>>149798859 (OP)
It's like Aqua Teen giving each new season a different name, just marketing. Though I wish it was just "Wonderful World of Gumball", "Wonderfully Weird" doesn't roll off the tongue as well

>>149798882
True, but this is treated as a new show, while other revivals, like Phineas and Ferb and King of the Hill are just new seasons.
They're not like "Phineas and Ferb: Next Summer", or "Kings of the Hill", you know? And the King of the Hill revival is absolutely more different from the original series than TWWWOG is from TAWOG.

No it doesn't?

>>149799132
It is from what I've seen.

>>149798859 (OP)
It lets them pay the creators less because the new series has less than 3 seasons done.

>>149798891
I don't know if it really is the case, but as a pre-hiatus Gumfag I got hooked up by the pilot episode back when it first aired and have been following that show ever since.

>>149798859 (OP)
Well the most cynical answer I can think of is they know it'll be shit and they don't want the low ratings from this "new" show to affect the residuals of the old show.

>>149798859 (OP)
Work around to contract law. >>149799650 is the gist of it. It's why Justice League and Justice League Unlimited are considered two different shows and Ben 10 keeps rebranding itself.

>>149800020
I'd say you're trolling, but they did flush half of this new season down Hulu's hatch.

>>149798859 (OP)
Hmm...

>>149799650
>>149800043
Well that's messed up.

>>149798859 (OP)
I grew used to the new logo, but I still don't like seeing it in still images.

>>149801926
What's wrong with it?

>complaining about T face in 2025
Ben is NEVER going back to the Season 1 style. Deal with it.

>>149799650
How does that work?

>>149804488
"You wanna make a show? This is the deal. Take it or walk."

>>149798968
I think the Weird part comes in with the fact that there's some pretty fuckin weird and surreal content with this season even for Gumball standards, like Principal Brown twerking for his audience of children

>>149800043
Tbf, Ben 10's shows are extremely different except for AF and UA which are the same show but split in 2

>>149804464
>Season 1 out of nowhere
T face didn't become a thing until mid-late season 4. That's 3 and a half seasons of the new art style before they started spamming it

>>149801066
It is

>>149800669
what the WHAT

>>149804464
That's a cute Gummypuss

Anyone else not even really notice Gumball stopped getting new episodes until this was announced? I thought it was still going this whole time, then again I stopped paying attention to it years ago.

>>149808486
Gumball never really went away. You have the abrupt series finale that didn't have as much impact as a more conventional series ending would've had, coupled with CN still latching onto the show despite it all with cheap "specials" in the years that followed:

Add the fact that random clips would go viral every couple months or so, and the show never grew irrelevant enough to feel as though it ever ended.

>>149800278
Nah if i were trolling I'd claim to be some kind of leaker. It's not even a guess, its' me trying to think of the worst case scenario for fans.

>>149799895
Can't wait for episode 6

>>149798859 (OP)
dumb ball

werent we supposed to get a movie?
did that ever get released?

>>149810037
fuck you!!!!!!!

>>149810067
nope, and at this point it probably never will

>>149810067
Got shitcanned during the warner discovery merger like the other cn projects

>>149798859 (OP)
not a reboot

>>149811656
No, it's basically a revival, so why is this considered a new show? Why not just make it a new season?

>>149810067
Ben Bocquelet said that he is rewriting the script. Meaning that it isn't even at a stage where you can even begin thinking about pitching it to WB execs, to say nothing of it being greenlit and passed on to production.

>>149812112
darnit
