Review: The Amazing World of Gumball ‘The Voice’

 Spoilers Below

Gum and Darwin block a whole bunch people on their social net, but then they get this mysterious email with an evil voice that scares them into undoing their mistakes. They decide to not only apologize online, but they go to school and apologize to a whole bunch of people at school but they aren’t able to find the person that send the scary message. Eventually the guys go from apologizing to all of their friends, but other people that they didn’t even know.  The apologies begin to run out, but the scary voice continues to threaten from a far which causes the brothers to turn on each other for no real reason. We soon learn that its William that is making all of the threats and he chases Gumball and Darwin up and down the hallways but are able to man up and fight back.

This is my first time checking out The Amazing World of Gumball and I gotta say I quite enjoy it. Fans of this series should check out Disney’s Fish Hooks because I do see some similarities, but I think the variety of characters on Gumball might actually be a lot more fun. Sussie and Carrie might be my favorite of the bunch, but I do love the interaction between Darwin and Gumball as the relationship between the two definitely seems to be a bit more natural than what other shows do. This week’s episode had a rather cool start to the overall premise, but it more or less played out the way most would have expected until the end with William. I couldn’t find who voiced William but if I were to guess I’d say Jemaine Clement, but whomever did so did a great job.
