So, it’s been 10 years since The Amazing World of Gumball first premiered on television screens. Time sure flies, doesn’t it? I wasn’t there from the beginning, I didn’t become a fan until 2015, when Gravity Falls was in hiatus and I was looking for something similar to watch. A youtuber I used to watch recommended this show and I’ve been hooked ever since. I didn’t grow up with it as a lot of fans have, I started watching when I was 19 and I would’ve been 15 when this show premiered, but it still does mean a lot to me. I’ve never seen a show that made me laugh as hard as this one, and the meta arc is fascinating to me. The characters too, draw me in, as they somehow manage to be stock sitcom characters and yet they have so much depth. Gumball, Darwin, and Rob especially I gravitate to the most. I’ve been an active member of the fandom for a while, writing fanfics, making amv’s, running rp blogs, and I’ve met many wonderful people in the fandom. This show has gotten me through some tough times, and, even though I may not be as into it as I used to be, it’ll always have a special place in my heart. And I hope someday we can see that movie so it’ll end with the bang that it deserves.
