As Cartoon Network was heavily interested in "family and school shows" at the time, Bocquelet decided to make the series a kid series called The Amazing World of Gumball which was a combination of both. He pitched the series to Daniel Lennard, vice president of Original Series and Development at Turner Broadcasting, who was impressed by the series' premise and ultimately greenlit its production. The first series to be greenlit by Cartoon Network Studios Europe, The Amazing World of Gumball premiered on May 3, 2011, with the episode "The DVD", which was watched by 2.120 million viewers in the United States. On June 2, 2014, Cartoon Network announced that the series had been renewed a fourth and fifth season.
Both seasons combined consisted of 40 eleven-minute episodes. On June 22, 2016, Cartoon Network renewed the series for a sixth season which would consist of 44 episodes. On September 6, 2016, Ben Bocquelet announced he would be departing production of Gumball upon completing the sixth season but production will continue without him. Though Bocquelet would retweet an article stating that the sixth season would be the last, the author of that article would make a follow up post clarifying that the series may continue.
