Produced primarily by Cartoon Network Development Studio Europe, it first aired on May 3, 2011.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=The Amazing World of Gumball )〕 The series revolves around the life of Gumball Watterson, a 12-year-old〔 cat who attends middle school in the fictional city of Elmore. Accompanied by his adoptive goldfish brother Darwin, he frequently finds himself involved in various shenanigans around the city, during which he interacts with his other family members—sister Anais and parents Nicole and Richard—and an extended supporting cast of characters. Bocquelet based several of the series' characters on rejected characters from his previous commercial work and making its premise a mixture of "family shows and school shows", which Cartoon Network was heavily interested in. He pitched ''The Amazing World of Gumball'' to the network and Turner Broadcasting executive Daniel Lennard subsequently greenlit production of the series. It is the first series to be produced by Cartoon Network Development Studio Europe, and is currently co-produced with Studio SOI and Great Marlborough Productions. One unique feature of the series is its lack of stylistic unity. Characters are designed and animated using different styles and techniques (stylized hand-drawn animation, puppetry, realistic CGI, stop-motion, etc.)〔(Interview with Ben Bocquelet ) in Toonzone〕 On June 2, 2014, Cartoon Network announced that the series had been renewed for a fourth and fifth season. ==Production== When Cartoon Network Development Studio Europe was created in 2007, Ben Bocquelet was hired to help people pitch their projects to the network. However, when the studio decided to have its employees all pitch their own ideas, he decided to take some rejected characters he had created for commercials and put them together in one series set in a school. Daniel Lennard, vice president of Original Series and Development at Turner Broadcasting, was impressed by the premise and approved production of the series. The first series to be produced by Cartoon Network Development Studio Europe, thirty-six episodes were produced for its first season in collaboration with Studio SOI, Dublin-based Boulder Media Limited,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=BoulderMedia.tv - Welcome )〕 and Dandelion Studios.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title='The Amazing World Of Gumball' Boulder Media update! )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「The Amazing World of Gumball」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
