i've spend the past two weeks bedrotting and binging this series as i hope my sickness goes away faster. even fifteen years later as an adult, i find myself amazed at how such a creative and funny show exists. it has such a diverse yet fully memorable cast of characters and it never gets boring. i've avoided watching this due to my own personal superstition that watching gumball = interpersonal conflict coming my way (a chain of coincidences led to this thinking), but i'm in the middle of a mercury retrograde and shit's going down anyway so might as well 🤷‍♀️ and you know what? it gives me enough comfort to get through everything. i'm finally watching the third season after fifteen years of fomo!
