'Wow! Wow! Wubbzy!' is an animated children's television series created by Bob Boyle (who also created Yin Yang Yo!), produced by Bolder Media (a joint-venture between Frederator Studios and the Mixed Media Group) and Film Roman/Starz. It is animated, as are many newer cartoons in the 2000s, using Adobe Flash software. Bob Boyle, Susan Miller and Fred Seibert are the executive producers, and the technical director is David Sandford.

Debuting in the United States on Nick Jr. on August 28, 2006, ''Wow! Wow! Wubbzy!'' is a comedy show for pre-schoolers. On June 9 of that year, Nick Jr. launched the ''Wow! Wow! Wubbzy'' website in conjunction with Frederator Studios and Mixed Media Group, released previews of the show online through video podcasting (or, as Bolder Media has dubbed it, The Wubbcast. In addition, the site includes three games (Wubbzy ring toss, for example), recipes like marshmallow lasagna, coloring pages and other fun stuff.

Main Characters

 * Wubbzy (voiced by Grey DeLisle) - A yellow gerbil-like creature. The titular character, Wubbzy is yellow rectangular-like with a uniquely unusual (some would say "kooky"; others would say it is more "wacky" than "kooky") tail. He has a child-like fascination with life, and his favorite past time is playing kickety-kick ball. His daily travels throughout Wuzzleberg and its environments often result in his response, "Wow, Wow, Wow!"
 * Widget (voiced by Lara Jill Miller) - A pink rabbit-like creature. Whenever there is a problem that needs to be fixed, she replies with her catchphrase, "No problemo!" She can fix and invent an endless stream of cleverly named devices (usually ending with a 3000), not the least of which are a robotic chicken that lays a hundred eggs a minute or a thirty-screen television (The Videotron 3000). Unfortunately, something always seems to go wrong, which usually results in her trademark reply, "That wasn't supposed to happen!" She speaks with a typical Southern accent.
 * Walden (voiced by Carlos Alazraqui) - A purple bear-like creature. Named for Walden Pond, this purple fellow is the bookworm of the group, constantly seeking to further his knowledge of anything and everything. He has knowledge, as the theme song refers, "about science and books and art". His adventures alongside Wubbzy and Widget often result in his favored axiom of "Very interesting!" Walden also tends to say "Yes, yes, yes" in lieu of just "yes".  He speaks with a typical British accent.

Plot
In the beginning, the announcer of the game, Space Ghost, decides to take the day off and watches Dexter's Laboratory. However, to his horror, he finds Dexter's world facing a very strange, utter destruction, which soon crosses over into the network's other shows such as Kids Next Door and The Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy. Much to his surprise, he then sees Ben Tennyson's nemesis, Vilgax invading Marzipan City of Chowder. Ben is transported into Marzipan City, where he confronts Chowder, who has been corrupted and as a result, turned evil. Chowder comes back to his senses and teams up with Ben, and the two of them set off to find Vilgax, who escapes whilst the heroes beat some enemies that are trying to beat up Mung Daal, Chowder's employer.

The Ultimatrix detects that there's a dimensional disturbance, as Marzipan City is disintergrated. Ben and Chowder are then brought to Bellwood, Ben 10's universe, and are transported to the Null Void whilst fighting and freeing a corrupted Buttercup (who somehow got into the Ben 10 world). The three find Vilgax, but are suddenly brought to Primus to fight Ultimate Kevin Levin/Kevin Levin 11,000 while Vilgax escapes yet again. After the battle, Ben's world is also erased, but the three heroes are saved by Dexter, who's built a machine that allows them to travel to the different dimensions. They then go to Stormalong Harbor, Flapjack's universe to have him help out too, but the harbor is attacked by Stickybeard and his crew.

While the others retreat, telling Flapjack they'll return, Flapjack fends off the candy pirates (along the way finding Captain K'nuckles), then the two of them fight Vilgax and a corrupted Numbuh One. After Vilgax escapes, Numbuh One joins with Flapjack and K'nuckles to defeat Stickybeard. When Bubbie the Whale finds out Flapjack is under attack by Stickybeard and his pirates, Bubbie swallows up Flapjack, Captain K'nuckles, Numbuh One and Stickybeard, making it harder for Stickybeard to do battle, (Because Flapjack and Captain K'nuckles have been inside Bubbie a thousand times.) After Stickybeard's defeat, the heroes are picked up by the others and brought to the KND Sector V Treehouse in Numbuh One's dimension.

Numbuh One, Flapjack, and K'nuckles then defend the Kids Next Door's treehouse from the candy pirates, but Numbuh Two says he does not know how to get them back. Meanwhile, back in Dexter's dimension, Dexter is busy formulating a plan to fix the dimensional meltdown. Unfortunately, Father sneaks in and, using his fire power on a nearby temperature gauge to heat it up, sabotages the lab, sending Ben, Chowder, and Buttercup right into the City of Townsville (the Powerpuff Girls' dimension), where Mojo Jojo is on a rampage in a giant robot. There, they find Blossom and Bubbles (who were, for some strange reason, corrupted, but returned to normal once they accidentally hit the travel machine's door, which the announcer said was too painful to even watch). The group fights their way through the bustling metropolis, but then fight amongst themselves to decide who should go to face Mojo. The winner of the fight then destroys the robot's power core. Mojo then escapes, and the heroes leave as the dimension is destroyed.

Next, the group finds themselves in Foster's Mansion (Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends' dimension). There, they rescue a corrupted Mac and Bloo and defend Cheese from villainous forces. After that, Mac and Bloo join up with the heroes and head out just as their dimension is destroyed. After a quick stop to pick up Numbuh One, Flapjack, and K'nuckles at the KND treehouse in the KND universe, the now-one team returns to Dexter's lab, which is, by now, heavily damaged. After the group fights their way through (rescuing Monkey in the process), they find Father, who then fights the player and Numbuh One. After Father escapes, the heroes are attacked by Aku (the Shogun of Sorrows, the Master of Masters, etc.).

After Aku is defeated, the heroes travel to Endsville and encounter Grim. After fighting their way through the wrecked up town, escaping a wild tornado, defeating General Skarr in his helicopter, rescuing Grim's corrupted masters, Billy and Mandy, and battling an army of zombies, the group goes to the Underworld. There, they find and defeat Mojo Jojo and Father. They then escape the dimension as it, like all the others before it, is destroyed (Chowder just barely making it, thanks to a lollipop K'nuckles holds out). They then take the capsule (the Announcer noticing how it's surprisingly roomier than it looks from the outside) to one more place to visit; Samurai Dojo (Samurai Jack's dimension). After defeating the corrupted samurai warrior, Jack joins up with the heroes, but are attacked by Vilgax. After Vilgax's defeat, the now rather large group travels through Jack's world and defeats an army of Ultra-Robots.

As the dimension capsule prepares to make one more warp to save the universes, it suddenly explodes for some reason, leaving the heroes floating in a very odd and unrecognized dimension. There, the heroes find the main villain responsible for the whole dimensional meltdown - the Announcer's TV remote! The Announcer then watches, shocked, as his own remote control transforms into a giant robot, revealing it had been responsible for the destruction of the individual worlds. It then entraps the heroes in an energy ring and is about to send them through a portal to oblivion, presumably to permanently erase them and their shows forever.

The Announcer says that he should have not bought a discount remote (the type of remote the evil TV remote was) and that the heroes had the fire, had the heart, fought on earth, fought on water, and with their powers combined, something should have happened. Chowder then farts, causing the Announcer to say, "Hey, who just broke wind?" The elements the Announcer mentioned [fire, heart, earth, water, and wind] then combine to summon Captain Planet, who uses his powers to free the heroes. The final battle between the heroes (Ben, Dexter, Chowder, Blossom, Bubbles, Buttercup, Numbuh One, Flapjack, K'nuckles, Mac, Bloo, Monkey, Grim, Billy, Mandy, Samurai Jack, and Captain Planet) and the evil TV remote ensues.

Once the evil TV remote is defeated and turned into a normal remote control, Ben and Dexter reinserts the batteries to restore the universes and, after one last goodbye, everyone is returned to their home dimensions. Chowder is returned to Marzipan City, Mac and Bloo to Foster's Mansion, Dexter and Monkey to Dexter's Lab, Numbuh One to the Kids Next Door Sector V Tree House, Samurai Jack to Samurai Dojo, Grim, Billy, and Mandy to Endsville, Blossom, Bubbles, and Buttercup to Townsville, Flapjack and K'nuckels to Stormalong Harbor, and Ben to Bellwood. Everything then goes back to normal, except, as the Announcer points out, that he now does not have a remote and must get up and change the channel himself. Then, he wonders if he could get a lava-man to change the channel for him with a giant lever, the idea of which he likes the sound of.

Gameplay
Cartoon Network: Punch Time Explosion is a mascot brawler fighting game bringing together several playable and assist characters from the Cartoon Network Multiverse in one epic battle that plays very similar to the Super Smash Bros. series. Up to four players (human or CPU controlled) can control a character and fight on a multi-tiered 2D stage. Players may use various items that appear randomly to get the fighting edge over their opponent. Additionally, the stage may use set elements in order to take out other players. For example, in the Dexter's Lab Stage players can pull 2 different levers, one setting off a conveyor belt, and the other firing a deadly laser.

When players strike one another, glowing cubes will fall out of them. If players collect enough of these cubes, they will fill up their special meter that, when full, unleashes a powerful "Punch Time Explosion" (the equivalent of a Final Smash in Super Smash Bros. Brawl) attack against their opponents. For example, Ben Tennyson turns into Ultimate Humungosaur and launches missiles all over the stage.

In the XL version, fighting characters can team up with certain assist characters (the equivalents of Assist Trophies) and do Synergy attacks. For example, Madame Foster brings a plate of cookies to the arena, Chowder eats them, turning fat, and Madame Foster rolls him around the stage.

Each playable character has their own special move set that uses different elements from their respective TV shows. Each has an up, down, side, and neutral attack. Most characters have a projectile attack. Captain K'nuckles is the only character who has a disabling attack.

Port
On October 3, 2011, representatives of Papaya Games unveiled a new Developer's Diary featuring the console version of the game, announcing new characters, stages, and new gameplay modes. In addition, some characters who were voiced by stand-ins (IE Grey DeLisle as Blossom, Yuri Lowenthal as Numbuh One and Flapjack, and Tara Strong as Cheese) are now voiced by their original actors (IE Thurop van Orman as Flapjack).

In the XL version, there are new Story Mode changes. For example, in the 3DS version of the Ultimate Kevin Levin boss battle, Ben Tennyson was only supposed to attack Kevin and avoid his attacks. In the XL version, Gwen Tennyson shows up to help Ben in the battle with Ultimate Kevin Levin by trapping Kevin's arms and head with her powers. Also in the XL version is a shop where players can buy playable characters, including several characters who were bosses in the original version, arenas, alternate costumes, and TV show clips featuring all the shows except for Captain Planet and the Planeteers.

In Europe, this game was released on different dates. In the UK was released on May 18, 2012, in France, the game was released on June 14, 2012. In Italy and Spain, the game was released on August 22, 2012, through the PlayStation Store.

Reception
The 3DS version of Punch Time Explosion was received with mixed to negative reviews. Jack DeVries of IGN gave the game a rating of 4.5 (bad) and said, "...the fun comes in very small doses.", and felt that "the levels, though aesthetically varied, are basic and boring", criticizing its gameplay and plagiarism of the Super Smash Bros. games. The game was also criticized for not using any recent Cartoon Network characters and using characters from series that have ended prior to the game's release with Ben 10 Ultimate Alien being the only ongoing series during the game's release as well as not using other popular former Cartoon Network characters like Courage the Cowardly Dog and Ed, Edd, n Eddy.
