Welcome back to Elmore, where the laws of reality are a joke, and family life is anything but ordinary. Whether he's battling an evil fast-food empire, facing off against a sentient AI in love with his mom, or trying to stop Banana Joe from wearing pants, Gumball Watterson drags his brother Darwin, sister Anais, and the rest of the town of Elmore along for the ride.


The second season of the quirky animated series The Wonderfully Weird World of Gumball premiered on December 22 on Hulu, continuing from Cartoon Network's The Amazing World of Gumball. This season features all 20 episodes released at once, bringing back plenty of laughs for kids and adults, culminating in unadulterated fun the whole family will enjoy. International fans will need to wait a bit longer, as the episodes will be made available in February 2026.

The Watterson family is back to prove that reality is just a suggestion in their wonderfully weird world. Gumball, Darwin, and the town of Elmore are more chaotic, hilarious, and bizarre than ever before, navigating a fresh wave of absurdity. This season tackles a proposal involving Penny faking her own death, outright pandemonium with wild animals invading the suburbs, and a witchy student cult attempting a yearbook séance. "The Wonderfully Weird World of Gumball" is pure satire and hijinks, offering plenty of laughs for kids and adults alike, culminating in the long-awaited return of the franchise's biggest foe: Rob and The Void.


Created and executive produced by Ben Bocquelet, Matt Layzell, and Erik Fountain, also serves as executive producers. The voice cast includes Alkaio Thiele as Gumball, Hero Hunter as Gumball's younger brother Darwin, Kinza Syed Khan as younger sister Anais, Teresa Gallagher as Gumball's mother Nicole, and Dan Russell as his father Richard, among many more.


Season 2 is even more chaotic, hilarious, and wacky than ever, blending an eclectic mix of media styles — including 2D & 3D animation, CGI, puppetry, photorealism, and live action — into a wildly imaginative world defined by its vibrant visual style and sharp meta humor.


The Wonderfully Weird World of Gumball is available exclusively on Hulu and Disney+.
