| rdfs:comment | - Gumby is a claymation character who comes into the Dilbert universe via accidental meeting. His pet dog Dorgby stays with Dilbert during the meeting.
- Gumby only appeared on The Simpsons in a couch gag from Season 17.
- Gumby was a stop motion animation character created by Art Clokey in the early 1950s. After debuting on the Howdy Doody Show, Gumby became the star of his own NBC series in 1957. Additional episodes were created from 1961-1963, 1966-1968 and again in 1988. Eddie Murphy brought renewed interest to the clay figure with his "impersonation" of the green clay man on Saturday Night Live, and feature length movies, video games, comics and merchandising followed. The Center for Puppetry Arts in Atlanta, Georgia even hosted an exhibition in 2006, "Gumby: Art Clokey - The First Fifty Years."
- Gumby was a long-running stop motion clay animation television show. ALF panics when he misses it because the TV set is broken (Episode: "Weird Science").
- Gumby was inspired by a suggestion from Art Clokey's wife. That he base his character on the Gingerbread man. Gumby was simply green because that was Clokey's favorite color. Gumby's legs and feet were made wide for pragmatic reasons: they ensured the clay character would stand up during picture-taking filming. The famous slanted shape of Gumby's head was based on the hair style of Clokey's younger brother Charles Farrington in an old photograph.
- Matt "Gumby" Van Gundy was one of the founding members of the band. He played guitar from 1994-1995 and wrote some of the music for The Aquabats! first album: Return of The Aquabats!. Since his days in the band, he has played in The Griswalds and The Changes Daily. Matt currently lives in the Washington DC area, and is rumored to have started an Aquabats tribute band called The Waterbats, although this is probably just a rumor.
- Gumby is a rare clay-based organism that originates from Gumbasia, just east of Scotland. He is not to be confused with the Gumbies, a race of mentally challenged spectacled British men. Gumby was first discovered in 1919 working the kitten dealing chain in the Commonwealth of Kentuckistan, and was later forced into sexual slavery by Oprah. The Gumby has a rich history full of despair and shame that no carbon-based organism would ever wish.
- Gumby is a friend of the bears, and therefore the root of all evil. In the early 90's Gumby produced and starred in his own children's television program, which was intended to convince the children of Real Americans to ally with the rampaging, godless killing machines. Gumby (and bears) make The Baby Jesus shed tears.

However, Stephen Colbert headed up a "coalition of freedom" to vanquish Gumby and his ruthless allies to the abyss that some call Canada. During his exile, Gumby and his faithful steed created the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, the bear-loving fiendish organization responsible for organizing all North American bears in their fight against all that is good and holy. Gumby (and bears) make The Baby Jesus shed tears.
