Wubbzy's Big Idea is a Wow! Wow! Wubbzy! episode from season one.
Characters Present[]
Summary[]
Wubbzy wishes he were bigger, so Widget builds a Big-O-Matic 3000, a machine that makes Wubbzy grow.
Recap[]
Wubbzy is too small to play hoopty-hoops, ride the loopy rollercoaster, and see over the people in front of him at a movie. Widget builds him the Big-O-Matic 3000 which makes Wubbzy bigger. Soon he would change his mind about it after he makes himself too big. He can't fit in the hoopty hoops court, the rollercoaster can't function, and he towers over people at the movies. Near the end, Wubbzy accidentally breaks the Big-O-Matic, causing him to grow bigger. Widget builds a bigger Big-O-Matic so Wubbzy could fit inside it. He manages to squeeze in so they shrink him back to normal size which is, as Wubbzy says, "Wubbzy-sized".

- Wubbzy could've sat in the back of the movie theater so he wouldn't have blocked anyone else's view due to his giant size.
- When Wubbzy was at the movie theater when he was his normal size, he could've sat in the front of the movie theater since he couldn't see.
Plot[]
Wubbzy finds it awfully inconvenient being small - he can't play Hoopty-Hoops, or ride the Loopy Coaster, or see the movie screen. So Widget builds the Big-o-Matic, which makes Wubbzy a little bigger. But Wubbzy isn't satisfied, and makes himself a lot bigger. Now he's too big - he clomps around on the Hoopty-Hoop court, and breaks the Loopy Coaster, and blocks the whole screen in the movie theater. Then he starts growing even bigger, and Walden and Widget have to scramble to get him back to normal size again. Wubbzy realizes he's just the right size the way he is.
