Fun fact: The episode 11 actually references a Chinese show that blatantly copied the show. I loved how the creators decided to clap back instead of contacting the copycats. This episode is awesome!
There must be an agreement between CN and the studio that made Miracle Star like how other countries made their versions of tv shows with agreements otherwise that episode (or the Miracle Star show in general) would resulted with sues and fights etc
The fact that Chi-Chi and his family (Gumball's copy) didn't have a sister to save them was not only hilarious but clever because it was making fun of China's 2 child policy law.
@@vashtinayagar1325 Yeah I think logically it should be applied to biological children. Because of the overpopulation? Adopted children already exist so there shouldn't be a problem to adopt them. You just can't create more than two kids in marriage.
@@vashtinayagar1325I dont think so? That max 2 child law exist because of overpopulation in China after all and you are not adding a new person to the China when you adopt 😅
The fact that Gumball make an episode as a direct call out to a copy cat show will never not be funny to me. The reason why the irl knock off didn't have a little sister is because of China's two child policy.
Technically, Anais destroyed the Copycats. They dug their own graves when they deleted the little sister. Without her, the Watersons would've perished over that goddamn bridge (Seriously, somebody fix that thing, already!).
ngl, The Potato Song goes so hard. Also, the reason there's no copy of Anais is because of China's 2 child policy. "The Copycats" will never not be hilarious. The way the show claps back at it's Chinese knock-off, and plagiarism in general, is so clever. Easily some of the best writing in the show.
Issac Asimov's 3 laws of robotics 1: A robot can not harm a human, or through inaction, allow a human to come to harm. 2: A robot must follow the orders of humans, unless such orders conflict with the first law. 3: A robot must protect its own existence, unless it conflicts with the first or second law.
Okay, I'm gonna be honest, I just love how observative H-man is. He notices such subtle details, really pays attention to the show. I legit think he got more than half of well hidden plot twists this show throws at viewers.
20:10 bro the potato song had no reason to be that good 😂😂😂 Also now I'm convinced H Man pre watches now and I remember someone mentioned this and now Ruff is making similar points as that person nah🤣🤣🤣
The reason why Anais isn’t there for being a girl, is 1) sexism in China prioritizing boys over girls to carry over the family name. 2) a population limit to have only 2 kids (like Americas “Nuclear family” back in the day), so Darwin and Gumballs doppelgänger is kept, but the youngest kid is gone.
For those who don't know "The Copycat" is a TAWOG copycat show from China called 奇奇妙樂星 What’s interesting is that even the Chinese themselves despise this copycat program and criticize it on the Internet.
I’ve always wondered why they switched voice actors mid season. They still sounded fine and could’ve easily still kept their roles till the end of the season
18:20 - I know how you feel, man. Years ago I had a classmate from Poland, but I didn't hear the accent until I was told about it. I used to think Penny changed her personality after her shell came off, but after looking back at seasons 1 and 2, I'd say she's pretty much the same except her emotions stand out more.
I'm excited to see y'all react to season 5 bc there are so many good episodes. Sorry to recommend stuff to y'all but I love seeing your reactions but would love to see you guys react to the Godzilla movies (2014-2024),star vs the forces of evil, wander over yonder, dragon Prince. I also can't wait for y'all to finish Ben 10 to start omniverse bc it's really good and I know some say "it's filler and not good at all" it really is bc you get more lore and new stuff and new aliens. Sorry to keep asking y'all I just don't see ppl react to some of these things tbh. Keep up the reactions and amazing vids. Like I said, love seeing your reactions.
Okay so there are two reasons the copycat family didn’t have a daughter. 1. As there from a real Chinese knockoff the show only had two kids to abide by the two children law. 2. As disturbing as it sounds there have been reports of family’s “disposing” of infant daughter’s as boys are seen as more valuable. So yeah no Anise counterpart because she is the youngest and a girl.
Let’s see here… China made a direct, shameless copy series of Gumball called Miracle Star, to which Cartoon Network tried to copyright claim. However, the American government didn’t want to get involved with the clusterf*** that is the Chinese government, let alone something as trivial as non-political cartoons. As a result, Cartoon Network took the matter into their own hands and it’s amazing!😂 At the time, China had a 2-child policy that has since been increased slightly.
The copycats is a reference to Gumball’s Chinese rip off show Miracle Star. The actual reason there’s only 2 kids and not an Anais is because you were only allowed to have 2 kids back at the time due to their overpopulation problem.
Think of it this way, if Hman keeps pre-watching, then you'll get more comments, and more comments means more engagement, and more engagement means MORE VIEWS.
7:28 So was Darwin unaffected by the radiation because he’s kind of already a mutant? Also potatoes are great as you can survive off of nothing but potatoes and butter/milk.
The copycat episode is based off an actual Chinese ripoff of the gumball show, and that show didn’t have an anais ripoff due to chinas at the time policy of parents only having two children
Fun fact: The episode 11 actually references a Chinese show that blatantly copied the show. I loved how the creators decided to clap back instead of contacting the copycats. This episode is awesome!
The writers of Gumball are so unbelievably based
That’s why it’s one of my favorite episodes, it’s such a creative thing to do. Miracle Star, I think it was called
That explains why the daughter is gone……yikes….
Wow cool fact I had no idea that happened
There must be an agreement between CN and the studio that made Miracle Star like how other countries made their versions of tv shows with agreements otherwise that episode (or the Miracle Star show in general) would resulted with sues and fights etc
The fact that Chi-Chi and his family (Gumball's copy) didn't have a sister to save them was not only hilarious but clever because it was making fun of China's 2 child policy law.
Does that apply when it comes to adopted children? I always thought u just couldn’t get pregnant more than 2 times
@@vashtinayagar1325 Yeah I think logically it should be applied to biological children. Because of the overpopulation? Adopted children already exist so there shouldn't be a problem to adopt them. You just can't create more than two kids in marriage.
That was hilarious and clever I never thought about it that way in fact I had no idea someone in china was copying the show
YEP it's also a Chinese ripoff they actually copy the past episode in there version!
@@vashtinayagar1325I dont think so? That max 2 child law exist because of overpopulation in China after all and you are not adding a new person to the China when you adopt 😅
The fact that Gumball make an episode as a direct call out to a copy cat show will never not be funny to me.
The reason why the irl knock off didn't have a little sister is because of China's two child policy.
Wasn’t it a one child policy? I thought the Darwin equivalent wouldn’t count since he was technically a pet
@@shovknight3008 No, it's two child policy now, but I forgot when did they make the gumball rip off so it might predate it
@@himajongte I know they have changed it but I’m 90% sure it was a one child policy at the time the episode aired
@@shovknight3008 it used to be a one child policy as of 2015 its a two child policy
It was a one-child policy.
Darwin/Ribbit is legally a pet, not a son.
I finally understand. Hman doesn't join on Billy because he does it on his own whenever he prewatches Gumball.
True.
FINALLY. THE TRUTH'S BEEN REVEALED
Lmao right.
Pre watcher
The actual Chinese, knock off of Gumball is called Miracle Star, and they really called them out in the best way possible. 😂😂
Technically, Anais destroyed the Copycats. They dug their own graves when they deleted the little sister. Without her, the Watersons would've perished over that goddamn bridge (Seriously, somebody fix that thing, already!).

My absolute favorite episode.
The show has always been an expert at mocking certain tropes, and this is the greatest of those episodes.
That was very clever of them.
Oh it was 2? I thought it was just one
@@jervisangelopitao7118 I thought so too but in either case Darwin’s Knock off is good because he’s technically a pet.
Issac Asimov's 3 laws of robotics

Robot slaves 🤤
Plot twist: The Chinese writers of the knock off knew the Gumball writers would make this episode so they left Anias out of their version.
Smart!
One of the reactors I watched had his fans saying it was because of China's one child policy
H-man not joining in on Gumbaaaaallll Billlllyyyy is the equivalent of him not saying Woo oo for Ducktales. Both sacrilege. 💜
Did they watch season 3 of ducktales 2017?
@@БелаяВорона-б6й I don't think so...not sure why
Right I said the same thing before
@@mimic1984 They said it was on hiatus, Been waiting to watch it too.
The potato song is absolutely one of the best things to come out of TAWOG, I've had it stuck in my mind multiple times.
I remember I was watching the Rocky episode with my sister when we were younger and my mom told my sister "NEVER DO THIS!"
I mean, that's the point of the episode
The Copycats is based off the Chinese version of Gumball. In the end, Gumball and Darwin got new voice actors due to their puberty
Every time I watch Gumball now, I have to yell “GUMBAAAAALLLLLL BILLYYYYY”
It’s an instinct now
Okay, I'm gonna be honest, I just love how observative H-man is. He notices such subtle details, really pays attention to the show. I legit think he got more than half of well hidden plot twists this show throws at viewers.
Fun fact: the third Gumball voice actor, Nicolas Cantu, is the voice of Leonardo in TMNT: Mutant Mayhem, both the tv show and movie(s).
And a Dream slayer😂
@@burneraccount2024damn right he is
My favorite VA, I loved him as Leonardo 💙
The Copycats is one of the many reasons this show is amazing. They made fun of an existing ripoff in a hilarious way. The Potato song honestly slaps
I love how they change the voice actors in this show so funny and creative
Were finally in Nicolas Cantu's era of gumball
But I think in a episode of s5 which is after The Copycats Hopkins voices Gumball still .😅
Dream's nightmare have awaken
3:33 "Meh meh meh meh meh meh meh" Such wise words 💯
meh meh meh meh meh meh meh 🗣️‼️🔥
The fact that Mrs. Robinson is Rocky's mom makes that Tinder thing even weirder...
Rocky's pfp made him look nothing like his real self. She probably didn't know it was him.
20:10 bro the potato song had no reason to be that good 😂😂😂
Also now I'm convinced H Man pre watches now and I remember someone mentioned this and now Ruff is making similar points as that person nah🤣🤣🤣
Well to be fair, Idaho kept making that face whenever he was called ‘brotato’
@@Neymarjr-zr6yf yeah but it was really subtle, most wouldn't normally point it out on the first watch 😂 I'm just saying he looking a little sus
Gumball predicted “Us” before the movie
The reason why Anais isn’t there for being a girl, is
1) sexism in China prioritizing boys over girls to carry over the family name.
2) a population limit to have only 2 kids (like Americas “Nuclear family” back in the day), so Darwin and Gumballs doppelgänger is kept, but the youngest kid is gone.
For those who don't know
"The Copycat" is a TAWOG copycat show from China called 奇奇妙樂星
What’s interesting is that even the Chinese themselves despise this copycat program and criticize it on the Internet.
The only reason Rocky looked evil in photos is cus of his mom being Mrs. Robinson
Like that theres an interaction with larry and the mr. Smalls 😂. Their a perfect pair
18:41
Ang guess who also has Nicholas Cantu as their VA?
Leonardo in TMNT: Mutant Mayhem!!
3:57 that’s his mom
I'm glad Gumball protected Rocky from finding out that his mom was cheating on her husband through a dating app.
I’ve always wondered why they switched voice actors mid season. They still sounded fine and could’ve easily still kept their roles till the end of the season
I love watching these gumball reaction because I’m always greeted with “GUMBAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAALL BILLYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY”
18:20 - I know how you feel, man.
Years ago I had a classmate from Poland, but I didn't hear the accent until I was told about it.
I used to think Penny changed her personality after her shell came off, but after looking back at seasons 1 and 2, I'd say she's pretty much the same except her emotions stand out more.
The Rip-off was actually real in China lol
Imagine finding your mum in Tinder while your parents are still together 💀
Fun fact just like how in Adventure Time the snail is in every episode the clown is in every episode of Amazing World of Gumball
I love their Editor (lol) @ 23:09
Man, I can only imagine how happy the Danny Phantom intro would make H-man compared to this one lol
If u look at the credits at the end of the ep it says introducing and the new actors name the only changes Darwin and gumball
This is when the guy that beefed with dream that one time and killed james charles in mc monday takes over as Gumball.
This episode is definitely my favorite.
19:19 best representation of TOC
I agree. H-man is a pre-watcher. You should have yelled 'Gumball Billy' to him at the end as well as the begining.
GUMBAAAAAALLLLL BILLYYYYYYYYY
GUMBALLLLLLLL BILLLLLYYYYY
BIIIIILLLLLLLLYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
I absolutely love episode 11 here, it's a direct shot at the Chinese rip off of gumball it's beautiful
I'm excited to see y'all react to season 5 bc there are so many good episodes. Sorry to recommend stuff to y'all but I love seeing your reactions but would love to see you guys react to the Godzilla movies (2014-2024),star vs the forces of evil, wander over yonder, dragon Prince.

12:24 How do Chi Chi and his family know where the Wattersons live?
THEY HAD TO KNOW THE CONTEXT BEHIND THE COPIES EP.
The more i watch Gumball reactions the more sure i am Teen Titans Go! Would be great here too.
20:37 Okay, Eric.
THE BOY NICHOLAS CANTU HAS ARRIVED!
Here before all the Fun Fact-ers, it seem- op, nevermind
Copycat is actually real China copied Gumball into there version.
the wort part of your reactions is that they end
Coleslaw on anything is a crime lmao
20:18 Awesome! Potato! Potato
Okay so there are two reasons the copycat family didn’t have a daughter.
1. As there from a real Chinese knockoff the show only had two kids to abide by the two children law.
2. As disturbing as it sounds there have been reports of family’s “disposing” of infant daughter’s as boys are seen as more valuable.
So yeah no Anise counterpart because she is the youngest and a girl.
im ngl it doesnt take a smart person to know why potato guy was upset it was so obvious LOL
Boom's mic is boomin
“Isn’t that how Jujutsu kaisen started” 💀💀
3:56😲🤣

Now I really want to see a video about dumb state laws
Looking at the cast list, I see three Gumball Watterson's and three Darwins.
They did make Chun-ni, Nicole's counterpart from Miracle Star, with bigger boobs cause the show was made to sell goat milk >w>
Wait whaaaaaaaaaaat...
Oh. My. God.
Love the potato song
That copy cat family is based on an actual rip off cartoon from China called Miracle Star
China, actually.
It's china not japan dude
The copycats is a reference to Gumball’s Chinese rip off show Miracle Star. The actual reason there’s only 2 kids and not an Anais is because you were only allowed to have 2 kids back at the time due to their overpopulation problem.
One day H-man will do the "Gumball Billy", I know it 🥲
He doesn’t
Yes, they did replace the voice actors in this episode
Think of it this way, if Hman keeps pre-watching, then you'll get more comments, and more comments means more engagement, and more engagement means MORE VIEWS.
7:28 So was Darwin unaffected by the radiation because he’s kind of already a mutant?

22:32 YOU PRE WATCHER
9:06 OMG, YOU ROBBED A WOMAN
H-man prewacted this and all others. I'm convinced at this point.
Gumball vs China
5:10 gta5 in a nutshell
Hopkins was the best voice for gumball
That’s certainly an intro
day 13 of asking you to react to the mitchells vs the machines
And this show is actually a real show from the copycat episode, Chinese version of gumball
i cannot believe that hman is a prewatcher, i feel so betrayed
AW HELL NAH, HE IS A F*CKING PRE WATCHER
im convinced HMan does pre-watch
I am excited for the copycats because I know what its making fun of
You guys should watch Rick & Morty
5:45 yeahhh
OK, here’s a thing America critic gumball in China ripped the US version off
Gumball Billy 🎉
Yup exactly “Everything is going to be fine Billy”
The copycat episode is based off an actual Chinese ripoff of the gumball show, and that show didn’t have an anais ripoff due to chinas at the time policy of parents only having two children
3:45 😂😭
i feel like they have to react to miracle star now 😂
9:13 You stop it, you are being illogical
15:15 damnnn Anais
Copycat.
Sue? No.
Smite them? Yes.
Yup! Gumball had their own ripoff! XD
The laws in Us states are the biggest mystery
I keep posting
“Please react to Milo Murphy’s law episode 1”
I’m adding Generator Rex
Well give up, they don't take suggestions anymore just patreon ones.
