      I agreed. He appeared as a background character with no sense of quality, but more of a bland feature that he was used as a device for the plot (like the episode called "The Pony" where Gumball didn't recognized him that much and spelled his name wrong). Now, he ended up becoming more and more worst.

      But Gumball wants to be hated. Banana Joe, although he hasn't been asked, probably doesn't - in fact, Joe probably doesn't even know who Rob is (the right term is "barely knows who Rob is", as Banana Joe and Rob have met, and even had the episode where Rob kidnapped his mother, but they didn't really have any proper communication there, like Gumball and Darwin had with Rob), and most likely doesn't even know that Rob hates him, and the bigger point: doesn't know Rob is trying to kill him.
      Basically, even though Gumball was stubborn, he did a good thing: Gumball definitely does want to be hated by Rob, banana Joe knows little about Rob, and doesn't know Rob is trying to kill him. Gumball saved Banana Joe. Excluding Tobias, who appeared only for half a second, but his appearance satisfied the audience, it's a win:win for every character; Gumball got what he wanted, Rob still has somebody to hate, Penny was apologised to, Penny and Darwin got Gumball's attention back - Gumball getting what he want satisfies everyone involved

    I thought this was a funny episode, and I liked it at first. But it just totally undid Rob’s entire character arc.
    Here’s the thing: I don’t think Gumball is valuing Rob over Penny, or even particularly values him over anyone. The reason he’s after Rob is because he can’t stand someone ignoring him, or not making him the star of the show. Rob isn’t giving him the attention he’s used to, and that’s why he’s obsessed with Rob here. He wants the attention, and can’t stand not having it from even one person. And it’s a cool contrast to how earlier in the series, Rob was the one who wanted to be friends and hang out with Gumball, but Gumball ignored him. But still, mixed feelings for this episode.

      @@lilopugs7593 I highly doubt they undid his redemption. I mean he was going after Banana Jojo, so he was still a nemesis. He also got over his petty grudge of being forgotten and no longer wants to destroy the Watterson's. All he wanted to do after that was make sure everyone didn't get trapped in the void. His motives were no longer evil ,just misunderstood. Seems realistic to me. And if had had "undone character development", it didn't ruin it. People in real life don't really change like how people change on TV. Also, character regression is a thing. We as people are a creature of habit, so we can revert back to our old ways if push comes to shove. Personally, I think we as an audience really need to rethink character development as it's way too oversimplified now a days.

The show ended, meaning there's less opportunity to expand upon him. What I'm trying to say is that there was a lot of potential for Rob rather than turn him into a gag. I would've liked more episodes with him to show more growth rather than your typical antagonist again being right after a climatic fight

    I do not like this episode, but I do not think it is the worst. I would change a ton of things here.
    1. Cut out penny. She is useless to the plot.
    2. I would say have more of Rob and Gumball working together. During that part where they try to sabotage banana joe, kinda make that the plot. You could have a ton of jokes with that. Imagine Gumball gets into a fight with Bannana joe, and calls rob for help. While gumball wants to do something stupid to pay him back, rob wants to go all the way. At the end, they get into a fight and they realize they cant work together, because theyhave separate beliefs.
    3. Have Darwin be more of a straitman instead of him just popping up now and then. have it like the Rerun, here he is the guy coming with.
    With all that said, this not the worst.
    I am now waiting on your pick for the search for the worst

      Same. Felt like they just needed some forced way to say Richard isn't lazy despite showing that Nicole has on multiple occasion been able to handle everything on her own with little to no help from Richard (since he most of the time acts childish and tries to get out of chores). Some of the jokes were pretty good but, it made no sense to dumb down Nicole just to have Richard look like he's actually responsible--even though his methods in The Deal are reckless because of his immaturity.
      Think the episode would've been better playing off the part of Nicole letting the employee of the month go to her head (from feeling unappreciated at her job for years), so much so that it forces Richard to take responsibility of everything and have to help her from being too absorbed in that mindset. In the end, both of them being able to realize how much they can appreciate each other since that's how it all started. Idk, just something better than what we got.
