>Regular show's ending is the only good thing in the late seasons.
The ending was rushed imo because of mordecai ending up with some random bat girl we don't even know and season 8 was garbage besides the ending. At least Gumball's last season was decent even with its flaws
Besides the mordecai thing, Regular Show's ending was great. Season 8 might not have been the best, but everything preceeding it was utmost kino, especially Rigby's Arc.
Gumball didn't even have an ending. It ended on a cliffhanger.
The romantic triangle arc ruined RS season 5, 6, and 7 were mediorce or shit at best, and RS was getting boring due to its formulaic format hell rigby's arc kinda sucks, due to his relationship with elieen being so boring due to elieen being a boring character we don't get to know her alot she'll be always known as rigby's girlfriend, since thats the only thing going for her.
Also I think the ending of Gumball is good, since it fits the show and its lore but hopefully the movie and s7 concludes this show

They make it up in the ep the transformation and even then, relationships arent supppsed to be perfeft anon, and at the very least the tawog girls actually stand out and have something going on besides being the girlfriend of the MCs Penny and Carrie for example.

Which consists of 'gumball does something stupid and penny gets angry'. They make up in the final minute of every episode. It's literally always the same. >relationships arent supppsed to be perfeft anon
A series isn't supposed to do the same fricking plot again and again. Their relationship completely stagnates because they decide to make them richard and nicole 2.0 where the man does something moronic, the woman has some crazy monster anger, but in the end they're fine.

Not this one Penny is angry with her parents this time, instead of Gumball doing dum shit, he has to decide wheather to side with her or his parents so no. >Their relationship completely stagnates because they decide to make them richard and nicole 2.0 where the man does something moronic,
Like I said the transformation kinda ends that also, Richard and Nicole's relationship is kino since the choices exists, and Richard's last major role the master helped his family instead of doing dum shit, he was actually the smart one in that ep Richard's dumness became less and less as seasons went by.

True, but thats because the writers of the show were focusing on other things like the backstory of the watterson family, the plot/lore of the show, and other realtionships in this show
Still Gumball is an episodic cartoon at first before the rest, same goes with Regular show since that show is only good with its episodic episodes even it got a bit formulaic for me

Nobody gives a shit about the female cast except waifugays, Regular Show is good precisely because it almost exclusively focused on male friendships, probably the last cartoon in recent memory to do so. Eileen works because the writers understood what her role was and never tried to prop her up as more than that, saying that she was just a plot device to develop Rigby is like saying Uncle Iroh was just a plot device to develop Zuko.

>Yeah and that’s a good thing
No it isn’t, seeing as virtually every main girl from Gumball has virtually the same sardonic straight man personality aside from Carrie.(Or Sarah if you really want to stretch it, but Sarah’s annoying as hell) Penny wasn’t originally like this prior to dating Gumball and hell even Darwin starts dipping into this territory at times. Eileen also plays the straight man to Rigby and is very clearly more intelligent than him, but the show never uses her intellect to talk down to Rigby or have her roll her eyes at his stupidity. Eileen was a sweetheart who loved Rigby for who he was while still expecting reasonable constructive compromise and change out of him. Bottom line is even though I like Eileen, the female cast wasn’t ever something I tuned into Regular Show for. If I wanted a more well rounded cast of female characters I’d watch something else, though it definitely wouldn’t be Gumball.

That's only Penny and Nicole but honestly they fix some of this in eps in the latter seasons like what I previous said, which you seem to completely miss tho. I dont think you watch Gumball anon like how you previous said that I dont watch Regular show. >Or Sarah if you really want to stretch it, but Sarah’s annoying as hell
Nvm you didnt watch the show at all Sarah is supposed to be annoying and relatable to some, because she's the creepy stalker that fanfics and headcannons characters in the show, she's the embodiment of Cinemaphile Also her realtionships with Gumball and Darwin doesn't count since its really one sided a better relationship would be, Gumball and hotdog guy since that realtionship might actually be the most entertaining relationship I have ever seen even its played for jokes. >but the show never uses her intellect to talk down to Rigby or have her roll her eyes at his stupidity
There were times in the show when elieen calls out rigby's stupidity anon so she's the same as Penny and Niciole. >I like Eileen
Anon I am not gonna take you seriously if you're gonna call me out for liking the female cast of Tawog, then procerd to whiteknight elieen and waifu gay her.
Rigby's arc sucks because of elieen and season 8, but its better than mordecai's arc.

There's a difference between a rough formula and an straight plot copy. Let's compare gumball and penny to rigby and eileen episodes. >Gumball does something stupid and penny gets angry (The Romantic) >Gumball does something stupid and penny gets angry (The Ex) >Gumball does something stupid and penny gets angry (The mess) >Gumball does something stupid and penny gets angry (The transformation)

>The ending was rushed imo because of mordecai ending up with some random bat girl we don't even know
It's realistic and true to the character at least.
Mordecai was a fricking train wreck who burned every bridge with every girl he knew.
He was emotionally immature and selfish as shit when it came to romance. If Regular Show came out right now he'd be branded king of the simps on this board for at least three seasons.
Him taking a few more years to sort out his shit before settling down with some rando we don't meet is perfectly fine. It's not like the show was devoid of romantic relationships building up. Muscle Man was already well established with Starla by the time she's introduced, and we see Rigby and Eileen develop over the whole series. High Five Ghost has a background relationship with Celia, we see how Skips' romance ended and why he doesn't have more. Even Benson got some in the last leg.
>Muscle Man was already well established with Starla by the time she's introduced, and we see Rigby and Eileen develop over the whole series.
Like I said before these relationships suck, because of the female character being one note or boring at least in AT & Tawog the female character for the male character isnt a complete bore and a plot device, and has eps around that said character. >High Five Ghost has a background relationship with Celia
This could have saved RS's terrible mishandle with its relationships,
If it werent the fact it was super underdeveloped , Ceclia is an interesting a character more so than any other female in RS too bad this relationship was left into the dust. >Mordecai getting with random bat was fine
No, it really felt rushed at least adventure time tried doing something with finn's third gf, huntress even if she's boring in some areas, they at least tried to fix it after the shit show that was fire & ice.
Honestly after what they pulled that in the ending of RS it really makes me think why the writers have to make mordecai such an unlikeable character, given that the writers could just make mordecai have a simple relationship without any love triangles attach to it
No not really, since that season was the lowest point of the show in every way, I had to endure to binge watching it, safe to say the ending was the only good thing about that godawful season, but without its flaws like I said before, with mordecai ending with some nobody that we dont even know her name.
I agree but RG is still good.
AT isn't terrible but it lost the plot when Ward called quits and everyone in the writers room just decided to do whatever they want.
Yeah AT became oversaturated with characters and its plot/lore example fionna and cake, hence why this show will always be labeled for me as bloated time
Disregarding you're pedo fetishes anon Anais is unironically a better Lisa Simpson in every way she gets better as seasons went by cant say the same for Lisa.
I agree. Regular show was solid, but got boring due to its strong, but extremely static formula, whereas Adventure Time nose dived after the first few seasons. TAWOG stayed fresh all the way through.
Would also like to add that the animation and visuals of adventure time and regular show got worse or souless in the latter seasons unlike Gumball's animation and visuals which improved as seasons go by
Damn, might be a good time to make a Teri thread soon.
At least that way there would a TAWOG thread which, although swarming with perverts, wouldn't turn into flamebait since its inception.
I guess refrain from the constant shilling and talk about more on the episode discussion in depth, and maybe going in the what if scenario like, what happens if the writers did this to the character or plot, instead of what they did, Also cute and wholesome fanart of characters no waifugayging or nsfw, shit should belong in /trash/, and this doesn't only inlcude AT & RS only, Tawog and other cartoons or comics should be included but you can already tell this is impossible
It may be not be obvious here in Cinemaphile but its way more obvious in other websites like twitter, reddit, and tiktok plus so many Black folk have a boner with this show as equal to their boner with avatar the blast airbender
Well, it was a Gumball fan who made this trollbait thread aimed at pissing off fans of Regular Show and Adventure Time.
If you can dish it out, you need to be able to take it, as well.
Dont think OP is baiting, considering he gave some arguments on why Gumball is better, and alot of people agreed with him, also I am not talking about here in Cinemaphile only about the gays of those shows
You do realize most of the posts came from OP and one anon right? They were arguing for hours about RS & Tawog, while some anons replied about their posts mainly the one anon who was arguing with OP, and how stupid he was

>gumball
I adore season 2 to 4 for their gorgeous creative visuals and varied comedy but couldn't stand the last couple of seasons because it felt like the writers got so fricking smart and up their own ass and it gave those seasons a really gross smug undercurrent
>regular show
Kinda just plain good? And stay's pretty consistently good, but it's not a show I was all that invested in because oh how formulaic the show is (the show is more formulaic then PaF but people don't really bring it up for some reason)
>Adventure time
I adore season 3 to 5 for the unique blend of absurdist and casual humor, heartfelt character moments, intrigue, and fun world, but didn't stay in touch with the show in season 6 onwards because the writers thought they were writing some deep philosophical shit with no self awareness, i did enjoy the miniseries they did though (everything surrounding Finn's mom and just the tragedy of it all is so well done)
Overall i like adventure time more for its higher highs but I do acknowledge that out of the 3 the show has the most BS
>shitting on season 5 & 6 without any meaningful reason
Gumball season 5 & 6 are good anon they have the best eps in the show's run, why do you think people talk about s5 & 6 eps more than other season eps, examples are the choices, the shippening, the father, the parents, the console, the master etc, stop undermining s5 and s6 there decent and better than s1 and even s2 in some regard, only a few eps that you hate about s5 & s6 are present
>regular show is plain good but ignores the shitty seasons of 5 to 6 for having that love triangle arc and season 7 to 8 for that boring and forgetable space arc.
There is no way you can call Regular show the most consistent one in the 3, when it has the biggest fall off out of the three shows, at least AT & Tawog late seasons had actual good eps in them
>because you buy into the sexy female furry milf
regular show and adventure time don't have that
The vampire is a "teen", the immortal bubblegum girl is also "teen". (most females are "teens" because females are morons, just like teens)
And regular show has no older females milfs?
Unless you count muscle man's mom.

nothing was too cynical in Gumball you're being moronic rn
It's better than AT but not better than RS.
AT fell off a cliff the moment they decided to turn the show from Adventure Time with Finn and Jake into Gay Soap-opera melodrama Time with Finn crying on the floor for being simp for PB
RS never declined quite as hard despite the shitty love triangle in the latter half of the show and its first 4 season are even better than early AT
Tawog is better than RS because of season 8, due to that season losing the qualities that made regular show a good show in the first place ,plus RS has a formulaic format like Phineas and Ferb it got boring early on, Gumball on the other hand was more creative and didn't follow a repetative format, alot of tawog eps are unique till this day because of that decision.
In the early to mid 2010's yes considering these 3 outshine other cartoon network shows at that time however once they all "ended" CN is pretty much lacking in any quality cartoons.
none of those shows are good
Gumball is the least shitty if you think about it anon, no romantic love triangle on site
It's better than adventure time because they ruined adventure time in the later seasons,but Regular Show managed to actually get a great ending so no.
>Regular show's ending is the only good thing in the late seasons.

No it isn’t, seeing as virtually every main girl from Gumball has virtually the same sardonic straight man personality aside from Carrie.(Or Sarah if you really want to stretch it, but Sarah’s annoying as hell) Penny wasn’t originally like this prior to dating Gumball and hell even Darwin starts dipping into this territory at times. Eileen also plays the straight man to Rigby and is very clearly more intelligent than him, but the show never uses her intellect to talk down to Rigby or have her roll her eyes at his stupidity. Eileen was a sweetheart who loved Rigby for who he was while still expecting reasonable constructive compromise and change out of him. Bottom line is even though I like Eileen, the female cast wasn’t ever something I tuned into Regular Show for. If I wanted a more well rounded cast of female characters I’d watch something else, though it definitely wouldn’t be Gumball.
>No it isn’t, seeing as virtually every main girl from Gumball has virtually the same sardonic straight man personality aside from Carrie
That's only Penny and Nicole but honestly they fix some of this in eps in the latter seasons like what I previous said, which you seem to completely miss tho. I dont think you watch Gumball anon like how you previous said that I dont watch Regular show.
>Or Sarah if you really want to stretch it, but Sarah’s annoying as hell
Nvm you didnt watch the show at all Sarah is supposed to be annoying and relatable to some, because she's the creepy stalker that fanfics and headcannons characters in the show, she's the embodiment of Cinemaphile Also her realtionships with Gumball and Darwin doesn't count since its really one sided a better relationship would be, Gumball and hotdog guy since that realtionship might actually be the most entertaining relationship I have ever seen even its played for jokes.
>but the show never uses her intellect to talk down to Rigby or have her roll her eyes at his stupidity
There were times in the show when elieen calls out rigby's stupidity anon so she's the same as Penny and Niciole.
>I like Eileen
Anon I am not gonna take you seriously if you're gonna call me out for liking the female cast of Tawog, then procerd to whiteknight elieen and waifu gay her.
Rigby's arc sucks because of elieen and season 8, but its better than mordecai's arc.
Man you suck at arguing
>didnt watch the show and didnt look past my other posts
Why am I not surprised that you suck at giving context to you're critcism go flamebait somewhere else
“Didn’t watch the show” is the peak of bad-faith arguments. Are you a mind-reader now?
Anon you said this to me hours ago you're not innocent as well stop trolling, Might as well say you're arguments suck even more because of that stupid comparison you did with ATLA, and the fact you have been denying the flaws with rigby's arc and defending season 8 not a mind reader just calling out you're bs, I have nothing to say to you anymore
I didn’t say anything like that to you. You must be confusing or conflating me with another anon. Not everyone who disagrees with you is the same person
Oh my bad anon, most of the time in this thread its just me and the other anon so I assume you were him.
Also regarding with you're "didnt watch the show" take its not really a bad argument considering you need to watch the show to get the context of the show if that makes sense, also my argument isnt just "didnt watch the show" if you look past my posts that's reaching at this point
>Which consists of 'gumball does something stupid and penny gets angry'
You do realize by this logic every RS episode would be garbage since it's formulaic, right?
>Basic sitcom plot
>WACKY HIJINKS involving sci-fi stuff and 80s references happens
>Everything is back to normal
I love RS but come the frick on, don't complain about something being formulaic when RS has a very similar playbook.
> don't complain about something being formulaic when RS has a very similar playbook.
There's a difference between a rough formula and an straight plot copy. Let's compare gumball and penny to rigby and eileen episodes.
>Gumball does something stupid and penny gets angry (The Romantic)
>Gumball does something stupid and penny gets angry (The Ex)
>Gumball does something stupid and penny gets angry (The mess)
>Gumball does something stupid and penny gets angry (The transformation)
VS
>Eileen is insecure about snowtubing
>Rigby tries to surprise eileen
>Rigby goes to high school again because he heard her talk about how she wanted to have a smart husband
Anon you're just sperging out at this point and have a bias for RS
no argument, then.
does something stupid and penny gets angry (The Romantic)
does something stupid and penny gets angry (The Ex)
does something stupid and penny gets angry (The mess)
does something stupid and penny gets angry (The transformation)
>Gumball does something stupid and penny gets angry (The mess)
>Gumball does something stupid and penny gets angry (The Romantic)
Legitimate examples
>Gumball does something stupid and penny gets angry (The Ex)
Not a Penny episode
>Gumball does something stupid and penny gets angry (The transformation)
He doesn't and she was angry for a completely different reason, moron.
I have been saying to that anon for so many times now , its almost as if he didnt watch that ep or completely forgot the plot and context of that ep
>Not a Penny episode
Does that change the fact that it's what happens? It's the only way they even show their relationship.
>He doesn't and she was angry for a completely different reason
Which still ends up being 'Gumball does something, penny gets angry'
>The ending was rushed imo because of mordecai ending up with some random bat girl we don't even know
It's realistic and true to the character at least.
Mordecai was a fricking train wreck who burned every bridge with every girl he knew.
He was emotionally immature and selfish as shit when it came to romance. If Regular Show came out right now he'd be branded king of the simps on this board for at least three seasons.
Him taking a few more years to sort out his shit before settling down with some rando we don't meet is perfectly fine. It's not like the show was devoid of romantic relationships building up. Muscle Man was already well established with Starla by the time she's introduced, and we see Rigby and Eileen develop over the whole series. High Five Ghost has a background relationship with Celia, we see how Skips' romance ended and why he doesn't have more. Even Benson got some in the last leg.
Mordecai getting with random bat was fine.
>Muscle Man was already well established with Starla by the time she's introduced, and we see Rigby and Eileen develop over the whole series.
Like I said before these relationships suck, because of the female character being one note or boring at least in AT & Tawog the female character for the male character isnt a complete bore and a plot device, and has eps around that said character.
>High Five Ghost has a background relationship with Celia
This could have saved RS's terrible mishandle with its relationships,
If it werent the fact it was super underdeveloped , Ceclia is an interesting a character more so than any other female in RS too bad this relationship was left into the dust.
>Mordecai getting with random bat was fine
No, it really felt rushed at least adventure time tried doing something with finn's third gf, huntress even if she's boring in some areas, they at least tried to fix it after the shit show that was fire & ice.
Honestly after what they pulled that in the ending of RS it really makes me think why the writers have to make mordecai such an unlikeable character, given that the writers could just make mordecai have a simple relationship without any love triangles attach to it
>The ending was rushed
it had a whole fricking season, it wasn't rushed, you just wanted to see more.
No not really, since that season was the lowest point of the show in every way, I had to endure to binge watching it, safe to say the ending was the only good thing about that godawful season, but without its flaws like I said before, with mordecai ending with some nobody that we dont even know her name.
doesn't matter anon, uncle grandpa is better than all 3 of them!
Might as well say ttg is better than all of those shows then
I suggest you'd stop being a little sheep.
Agreed
Source? This is a ridiculously cute Gumball
Found it on pintrest, sadly didnt saved it so I can't find it sry anon
Cute
I agree but RG is still good.
AT isn't terrible but it lost the plot when Ward called quits and everyone in the writers room just decided to do whatever they want.
Yeah AT became oversaturated with characters and its plot/lore example fionna and cake, hence why this show will always be labeled for me as bloated time
I want to breed Anais and taste her bunny dicky
Disregarding you're pedo fetishes anon Anais is unironically a better Lisa Simpson in every way she gets better as seasons went by cant say the same for Lisa.
have a nice day
Xitter is down the hall and to the left
coolio
have a nice day
NTA, but why do you like Anais so much? Is it her personality or her character desgin or both?
I agree. Regular show was solid, but got boring due to its strong, but extremely static formula, whereas Adventure Time nose dived after the first few seasons. TAWOG stayed fresh all the way through.
Would also like to add that the animation and visuals of adventure time and regular show got worse or souless in the latter seasons unlike Gumball's animation and visuals which improved as seasons go by
One of the best eps of this show really heartharming and relatable might I add
Damn, might be a good time to make a Teri thread soon.
At least that way there would a TAWOG thread which, although swarming with perverts, wouldn't turn into flamebait since its inception.
Idk everyone seems to agree here besides that RS gay
Also Nicole > Teri
They clear
Gumball's mom is so fricking anons I kneel
>manyakis
why can't we all be friends except for the anais frickers
Because AT gays and RS gays are egotistic and are shilling their show at times
what else do you want them to talk about on Cinemaphile?
I guess refrain from the constant shilling and talk about more on the episode discussion in depth, and maybe going in the what if scenario like, what happens if the writers did this to the character or plot, instead of what they did, Also cute and wholesome fanart of characters no waifugayging or nsfw, shit should belong in /trash/, and this doesn't only inlcude AT & RS only, Tawog and other cartoons or comics should be included but you can already tell this is impossible
am I blind? I've never seen Regular Show being "shilled" before
It may be not be obvious here in Cinemaphile but its way more obvious in other websites like twitter, reddit, and tiktok plus so many Black folk have a boner with this show as equal to their boner with avatar the blast airbender
Well, it was a Gumball fan who made this trollbait thread aimed at pissing off fans of Regular Show and Adventure Time.
If you can dish it out, you need to be able to take it, as well.
Dont think OP is baiting, considering he gave some arguments on why Gumball is better, and alot of people agreed with him, also I am not talking about here in Cinemaphile only about the gays of those shows
>and alot of people agreed with him
Amount of posters for this thread is fairly small. You sure those aren't just samegay posts?
You do realize most of the posts came from OP and one anon right? They were arguing for hours about RS & Tawog, while some anons replied about their posts mainly the one anon who was arguing with OP, and how stupid he was
Am I missing something or is it an n-th attempt at making a thread like this, with the same exact premise of a TAWOG fan trying to shit on AT and RS?
Somewhat the anon that was arguing with OP did the exact samething like you said, only that he was shitting on Tawog for its female characters, nobody was innocent in that argument but I guess OP was less moronic in his statement than the anon he was arguing tbh
Still mad about the cliffhanger ending,
good ep but bad finale imo
?si=52-0A5IdSmqJAeGf
Adventire time and Regular show has got nothing on Gumball's animation and visuals, both shows look like shit compare to Gumball
Rob is unironically better than the Lich king and Anti Pops mainly him being an sympathetic villan instead of an average villain.
This latino is somehow making alot of au Gumball videos, gotta some of his work are pretty good and can actual be in the show.
?si=tO92aTByC0q7v0Bs
>gumball
I adore season 2 to 4 for their gorgeous creative visuals and varied comedy but couldn't stand the last couple of seasons because it felt like the writers got so fricking smart and up their own ass and it gave those seasons a really gross smug undercurrent
>regular show
Kinda just plain good? And stay's pretty consistently good, but it's not a show I was all that invested in because oh how formulaic the show is (the show is more formulaic then PaF but people don't really bring it up for some reason)
>Adventure time
I adore season 3 to 5 for the unique blend of absurdist and casual humor, heartfelt character moments, intrigue, and fun world, but didn't stay in touch with the show in season 6 onwards because the writers thought they were writing some deep philosophical shit with no self awareness, i did enjoy the miniseries they did though (everything surrounding Finn's mom and just the tragedy of it all is so well done)
Overall i like adventure time more for its higher highs but I do acknowledge that out of the 3 the show has the most BS
>shitting on season 5 & 6 without any meaningful reason
Gumball season 5 & 6 are good anon they have the best eps in the show's run, why do you think people talk about s5 & 6 eps more than other season eps, examples are the choices, the shippening, the father, the parents, the console, the master etc, stop undermining s5 and s6 there decent and better than s1 and even s2 in some regard, only a few eps that you hate about s5 & s6 are present
>regular show is plain good but ignores the shitty seasons of 5 to 6 for having that love triangle arc and season 7 to 8 for that boring and forgetable space arc.
There is no way you can call Regular show the most consistent one in the 3, when it has the biggest fall off out of the three shows, at least AT & Tawog late seasons had actual good eps in them
>because you buy into the sexy female furry milf
regular show and adventure time don't have that
The vampire is a "teen", the immortal bubblegum girl is also "teen". (most females are "teens" because females are morons, just like teens)
And regular show has no older females milfs?
Unless you count muscle man's mom.
>ignores mordecai's mom, rigby's mom, finn's mom and jake's mom
Its like AT & RS gays don't even watch their own show Cinemaphile is dead because of failed redditors feels bad
>Made the best cartoon in the 2010's
> Doesnt get into any controversy
> A nice dude
> and is from europe
Gumball was made by the very best people
What's the joke?
In the image? You're kidding, right?
Prince Gumball, Gumball Watterson, and Benson (a gumball machine)
>Clueless
I liked s1 and 2 of gumball, it just became too cynical too fast?
>simply did not watch the show
You're such a bitter millenial if you that's the case you're more of a bigger homosexual than this guy
nothing was too cynical in Gumball you're being moronic rn
>Gumball
>A white family has a black kid as a pet
Over the Garden Wall > Infinity Train > Adventure Time > Steven Universe > OK K.O.! Let's Be Heroes > Regular Show > The Amazing World of Gumball
>loregay
Kys
Other way around buddy considering you just gave a moronic response without taking into consideration
You're moronic because you simply are
It's better than AT but not better than RS.
AT fell off a cliff the moment they decided to turn the show from Adventure Time with Finn and Jake into Gay Soap-opera melodrama Time with Finn crying on the floor for being simp for PB
RS never declined quite as hard despite the shitty love triangle in the latter half of the show and its first 4 season are even better than early AT
Tawog is better than RS because of season 8, due to that season losing the qualities that made regular show a good show in the first place ,plus RS has a formulaic format like Phineas and Ferb it got boring early on, Gumball on the other hand was more creative and didn't follow a repetative format, alot of tawog eps are unique till this day because of that decision.
Are these 3 shows really CN have back then?
In the early to mid 2010's yes considering these 3 outshine other cartoon network shows at that time however once they all "ended" CN is pretty much lacking in any quality cartoons.
