I adore Nicole and Richard's relationship in this show. On the surface, it might seem like the overdone "dumbass Dad, overworked Mom" sitcom trope, but I think the point is supposed to be that both of them are at the opposite extremes when it comes to parenting (Nicole is overbearing, while Richard is way too laid-back), and they help each other reach a happy medium when it comes to raising their kids.
@@laapgamerkikooshow8732 And they don't just keep themselves in balance, but also the universe. If Richard would be together with someone who is not that hardworking, or would be alone, He would have to get a job. We all remember what happened when he got a job🤣
yeah! i like some ways they kinda break certain parts of the overdone trope, like for exemple, the fact that Richard genuinely cares about his family, he's just laid-back and incompetent for comedic value, but not in a way that conflicts with his love for his family.
What’s also somewhat weird is how it is actually canon that Richard can not get a job, not because he can’t work, but instead if he does get a job, the entire world as they know it will actually break until everything is glitched or restored or the episode ends
One reason why I love this episode so much is that we can see she is pregnant before they got married, which is really cool to me because it’s a kids/teen show and I had never seen that in one before!
This episode (specially the apocalypse part) is one of the main reasons I find that Villainous episode, where Nicole was mentioned to have studied to be a villain alongside Flug, so plausible XD. Richard may have pretty much saved their world :P. Oh! It would be great to see Mathew reacting to Villainous, either the first shorts, the orientation videos for villains or the actual show. It would be great ^w^
These two could literally end the world yet they both keep each other in check. Richard gets to be lazy and not work, while Nicole doesn't hyper focus on one goal of being the best
Wait, isn’t Villainous that Spanish (language) cartoon with that pink girl who was with Flug? I haven’t seen it, so what does it have to do with TAWOG?
@@JamesP7 yes it is! Well, during the shorts called "videos de orientación para villanos" (orientation videos for villains), the characters of black hat organization analyzed an episode of other cartoon network shows and the points were the villains failed. From samurai Jack and the Powerpuff girls, to A Regular Show and the Amazing World of Gumball. I think it wasn't translated to English but they are here on TH-cam in spanish, I like them a lot and in one of them it is mentioned that Nicole studied in the same school as Flug XD (Obviously it isn't cannon, but it's fun, specially knowing the weird powers that she has in the show XP). 10/10 I recommend to watch jajaja
Facts about Richard: his dad was in and out of jail and was a horrible father to Richard to the point where he just left completely. His mom was taking care of him his whole life and eventually kicked him out because he was almost an adult
@@akenohononiku916 Gran Jojo can be cold with the people she loves and she didn't realized her over protection made Richard unable to take care of himself until Nicole called her out, so she probably thought Richard would be fine on his own and needed to move
11:00 yeah about that.. Fun fact : there is a certain clown character in TAWOG that appears from time to time sometimes he's directly involved with the episode and other times he's hidden in the background just... staring... It's very creepy-
Nicole’s mom isn’t actually counting because she wants Nicole gone, she’s actually counting because she’s one of this parents who are a little bit too ambitious for their child’s future.
something to note with this show is even though it stays episodic pretty much the whole way through, there is quite a lot of continuity, so its good to keep that in mind while watching it out of order like this
"I'm gonna have to write the Mayor about how dangerous this park is" despite her being the only one doing the dangerous stuff by zooming at dangerous speeds in the actual timeline...blaming anyone but you for the problem is such Karen energy. Considering if she went for the banana, we wouldn't have gotten Banana Joe...choosing Richard was the right choice
you should watch the episode "the parents". The episode you watched was nicole's parents first appearence and in "The parents" they show up again finally seeing their daughter after all these years. I think it would be really interesting (and emotional) after just watching this one
11:35 Parent, singular, his dad is a theaf and left when he was little, His mother raised him alone but ended up spoiling him so much that she didn't let him think for himself, which ended up making him stupid
Real talk Nicole’s parents are awful just awful they have so much her daughters life scripted out it’s a miracle she made such a huge decision for herself
Forgot the piano montage part and now I'm teary eyed. The end where they put in a tiny bit of the theme is the cherry on top of a beautiful piece of art.
Generally, Richard is very stupid thanks to his mom's poor responsibility of taking care of him. Nicole grew up with pushy and messed up like perfectionist parents which caused her to be the outrageous and overworking person she is today. Although, I am kind off glad that she went with Richard instead of the other guys like Tobias's dad who clearly have a lot of issues, Banana bobs dad who is quite irritating and bothering or Penny's dad who have a lot of issues like not wanting Penny to break out of her shell and showing psychotic hatred to Gumball. I would choose someone who is nice and stupid than most characters who needs therapy if I am Nicole because even though Richard doesn't have knowledge, he is generally nice to Gumball, Darwin and Anais. Although it is tough because the dad is unemployed, I understand Nicole's suffering of economic crisis because she does the heavylifting for the family. Hopefully, Anais can help support the family as she grows older because she is the smartest in the family and she can take care of herself. Even though, she likes to use her knowledge to manipulate people like Gumball, Darwin, Nicole, Richard(The ep about them fighting the TV remote for a cretain show they want to watch), she is still harmless and the most normal person in the amazing world of gumball.
I just wanna give you another recommendation related to gumball too. There is another “backstory” episode, but this one is about how Darwin and Gumball and how they met. It’s a quite wholesome of an episode. And I strongly recommend it if you wanna see some wholesome gumball related stuff. There is also one about Anais and her backstory of her when she was younger, it’s… wholesome? In some kinda way. But I do recommend both of them
If you ever want to watch a episode that is just pure fun, I would recommend "The detective", as it is by far my favorite episode. It is just hilarious!
Now that he's seen Darwins backstory, Richards backstory and Nicoles backstory, I think that he should definitely see Anais's to see how much of a freaking physcopath she is...
one thing that unrealistic or non canon etc about this ep is! 12:00 ! which features cute baby gumball which is contradicting w older lore which is that gumball was a REALLY FUCKING UGLY baby and nicole literally had to stay in the hospital for a while more cause the doctors were still trying to figure out why he was so ugly and that was why richard was left unsupervised and left them in huge debt by buying a star from one of those buy a star scams
Gumball's family pretty much mirrors my own family. My father, God rest his soul, never really had much luck at work, so he was a stay at home dad for the most part. My mom was the breadwinner, and they had three children. Although things can get a bit hectic and chaotic from time to time, I love my family, and I wouldn't have it any other way. So, watching this episode back then really hit home for me
The story of season 4 episode 20-21 of Gumball was about Gumball's first meeting with Darwin as a small little fish that his dad bought as a replacement for Gumballs dead fish and how he became Gumball's adopted brother.
about the hot sushi, here in brazil they sometimes fry sushi in panko, and that kind of sushi is served hot (not sure if they do this in other countries too)
"Oh my God! Supreme Leader?" people when they see me, probably. Although Nicole would be a great ally, trust me, you'd rather have me instead of her as Supreme Leader. Because at least I have a fun vibe. I am Kim Jong-Fun, number one at the party
I used to think the amazing world of gumball is funny, legendary and normal back in my childhood. Now, looking back to it, IT'S CONCERNING but still funny and one of the legends of cartoon network.
Listen, I respect your opinion, but in MY opinion, it's only wholesome as long as you ignore every character's personalities being reduced to a pile of garbage except for Darwin and Richard who were THE ONLY likeable characters in that episode. Nicole THREW ROCKS AT HER CHILDREN, for making fun of their dad, something she does to not only Richard but she also makes fun of both Darwin and Gumball on many occasions, she has NO RIGHT to be grounding them for something SHE does! Also Gumball may be a selfish jerk with a ego bigger than the moon, but he would NEVER still be insulting his dad after he heard that he made him cry, that episode took all of Gumball's good qualities, threw them in the garbage and multiplied his bad qualities by 10 thousand! And how is Nicole throwing rocks at her children's heads funny?!?! How is child abuse fun?! This episode was out of character for Gumball and Nicole and was purely unfunny compared to the other Gumball episodes and half of it was just child abuse! And yes, it is child abuse to throw rocks at your children's heads, not feed them or let them wash themselves for days, because they did something YOU do on a daily basis! Again, I respect your opinion, but I do not see what people like about this episode EXCEPT for the wonderful song and ending scene, that's the only good aspect of that episode.
Despite all that Nicole goes through she's still a compassionate and caring mother, I wish my mother was half this sane. That abusive shit threw tantrums for nothing.
Hi, if you want to know how Darwin created legs and became part of the family, you should watch the episodes "the origins part 1 and the origins part 2"
lmao the title, tho it would be cool if you were to watch the episodes where darwin becomes a part of their family next since you brought up baby darwin

"Have an awesome time until I see you next"
so when you do see us next we ain't allowed a good time...
glad someone caught onto the hidden meaning

They did, there is a 2 part special called The Origin and The Origin part 2
This is a beautiful episode because out of all the choices she could have had, she ended up choosing the perfect one for her. Also, hilarious 😅
you should watch the episode "the joy" its my favorite from the entire series
Hey Matthew,
If you wanna see Darwin as a baby fish, I recommend checking out “The Origins” part 1 and 2. They are really good episodes, trust me.
i one up this
Yus
Ohoho, this is gonna be heck of an emotional ride
In Brazil we have a sushi called "Carioca", we basically fry the sushi, so yeah, some people do eat hot sushi lol

Oh boy if you think her parents are bad in this episode
[Technically spoilers?]
I'm pretty sure they named her doctor, Nicole is her middle name
Mathew being gay for Richard, being hilarious!! 😂😅
This was my fav episode from Gumball
That was strangely wholesome for a Gumball episode.
7:50 - there is a sushi killed "hot philladelphia" which is basicly fried sushi. It's delicious
If he calls him “Richaddy the Daddy” one more time, I’m taking a bath with a toaster.
I liked how Richard said to Nicole when she doesnt know what to doo with her life "start living it"
0:32 Richaddy the Daddy is born
Yeah dude, it's the episode ever, imo matched only by the shell
I’m not sure if anyone has already told you this, but Nicole’s dad’s design was inspired by the iconic Grumpy Cat meme
