I also might have to say that the rating on IMDb for Gumball might be a 0.1 higher if some of the initial viewers from 2011 had changed their original ratings. I myself have not seen anything else from the first season apart from this, so that's is just me talking how it is definitely a jarring contrast compared to what the show would later become. Being from Season 1, the art style is less refined in this episode, with differing character designs from the later seasons that make it considerably standing out on its own.
The various things they go through to either get money to pay the fine or get away from their mom are enjoyable and fun, with an interesting if not exactly original conclusion.
In "The DVD", Gumball and Darwin are up to their usual stunts, this time involving them trying to escape paying a fine for a DVD they wrecked (some film called "Alligators on a Train"). It is no surprise then that this episode is more goofy and silly in regards to humor, but for a pilot remains a great episode despite how primitive it seems in comparison to later ones.

As most others have stated, the series in its first season was only a shell of what it would later become, consisting more of slapstick comedy more than the witty, humorous and occasionally satirical dialogue that was sprinkled in later episodes. "The DVD" was the pilot for one of my favorite Cartoon Network shows entitled "The Amazing World of Gumball", and because CN no longer shows the first episodes on the channel anymore, it took my pure curiosity alone to look this one up to see what it was like.
