  • Grumble Gum was average, But Cinnamini Monster was perfect

    Grubble Gum- Chowder buys a lot of "Grubble Gum" and chews it long enough that him and the rest of Marzipan City get into a really sticky situation. This I thought for the most part was averagely good. Some good parts, but some boring parts too. 7/10 C-

    Cinnamini Monster- Chowder and Mung go into the forest to get Cinnamini, but a monster "shun-in" traps Chowder into a game of Apology. This episode was really funny, one of my favorites of the show. 10/10 A+

    Overall, Grubble Gum was average, but Cinnamini Monster is one of my all-time favorites so it's ok to have an average episode next to one of my favorites. 9/10 A-moreless
  • I was disappointed by this pair.

    "Grubble Gum" - Chowder buys some special bubble gum called "Grubble Gum" while out shopping. There is just one thing he has to remember: whenever somebody brings gum into the catering company, he or she has to share it with Truffles - or else! Without realizing it, Chowder chews all of the gum on his way home! Can he avoid getting in trouble Truffles? This episode was a bit crazy and I did not like the ending very much.

    "The Cinnamini Monster" - I liked this one just slightly more then "Grubble Gum". Mung, Shnitzel, and Chowder venture into the woods to obtain a spice plant called "Cinnamini", which shrinks everything it touches. Chowder, of course, does touch it and shrinks. Soon after, he discovers the plant is inhabitted by a Cinnamini monster, who won't let him out until Chowder beats him at a board game. Can Chowder do it? This episode was a little funnier. This ending was one of the worst ever in my opinion. I recommend these episodes tot hose who are already fans of the show.moreless
  • ? The first BAD episode of Chowder

    3.0
    "Bad"
    Grubble Gum
    Chowder gets addicted to gum and, swallows it. I thought the main idea for this episode was Chowder gets addicted to gum and, they try to get it out of his mouth. And, so. The hole world is covered in gum and, get chewed on by Chowder.
    Final Score: D-

    The Cinnimini Monster
    Now, this is really bad. A monster just wants to play board games. How can he get board games anyways? He's so small? If they can make small board games there is small people so he can have friends. Anyways, The Cinnimini monster locks everybody in his house.
    Final Score: F+

    Final score: D-, 3.0moreless
  • Good episode, but bad response of Truffles.

    "You get the gum, you chew it, but you weren't thoughtful for Truffles." Ok, Ok, ignore the quote. I can't really believe it. This was the first episode that shows the meanest side of Truffles. Chowder remembered to buy gum for Truffles, but he swallowed all of the gum by accident. And so without sharing some with Truffles. I learned that Truffles kills anybody who doesn't share gum with her. Chowder didn't share any gum, but Truffles can't kill him. I can't believe that Panini was in this episode, but not for very long. Good thing Chowder survived the gum issue and the cinnamini monster.moreless
  • Chowder meets a monster and gets tangled in the most dangerous candy ever!!!!!!!!!

    "Superb"
    I loved them!!!!!!!!

    Grubble Gum: Chowder buys some gum and doesn't share it with Truffles. After Chowder blows a bubble with it, he gets stuck in it. Then he gets Mung and Schnitzel stuck in it. Then a huge grubble gum ball starts running down all of Marzipan City. A silly episode but lacked storyline.

    The Cinnamini Monster: I liked this a little better than Grubble Gum. This is about Mung, Schnitz, and Chowder going in the forest but then Chowder gettiing shrunk and getting trapped in the tiny house of a cinnamini monster. This ep was great and I really enjoyed it. The monster was likeable and them playing the game was really funny. But the ending was a little wierd but others might argue with me, I don't know.moreless

    ADD NOTES
  • ALLUSIONS (6)

    ADD ALLUSIONS
    • Cinamini An allusion to Cinnamon. It is also a combination of Cinnamon and Mini, which is fitting, because Cinnamini Powder shrinks whoever goes near it.

    • Man on Radda Radda Radda card In the Monopoly game, there's a card like this, but the man is holding a newspaper and yelling Extra Extra Extra! In this episode, it's just a guy yelling "Radda Radda Radda" at nothing.

    • The rolling gum ball scene and music An obvious reference to the Playstation 2 video game series Katamari Damacy.

    • Game: Apology This is a reference to the Parker Brothers board game, "Sorry".

    • Chowder: (with British accent) I'm hungry, Mung. I really am. This line, as well as the way he says it, is a reference to the 1961 Walt Disney animated film "101 Dalmatians", in which the character Rolly says "I'm hungry, mother. I really am." He also has a British accent.

    • Episode Title: Grubble Gum It is an apparent spoof of the words, "bubble gum".
