Of course Dipper is good at solving riddles! All joking aside, Jason's really good at this. He was also super helpful during the Cipher Hunt.

Dipper has become a part of Jason now they both have the same skill set

Jason has his Gravity Falls credit! Of Course Dipper knows how to solve clues and mysteries!

Yay, Janet Varney! Really love her JV Club podcast. Also, Carnivale reunion!

According to his twitter, Chris Evans likes escape rooms. Wink wink, nudge nudge?

One second left on the clock. That was utterly insane. I love it.

Of course Jason is amazing at this, he's diPPER PINES

My new favorite geek & sundry show.

That was a lot of fun to watch! Thanks!

(Context: I work at an escape room) -This seems like a /really/ easy room. -Red herrings are generally considered to be poor form in escape rooms. -The extra time puzzles are cute, but why not just extend the overall time and include the smaller puzzles as part of the main sequence? Probably for editing & video length? -I loathe the whole "yell for hint" idea. Not good for immersion. It'd be easy to rig up a cellphone or pager, which could also have a timer. -The hint didn't seem to be customized for the group, which seems lazy and ineffective. -Rough start to the game. Yelling "Go!" isn't elegant. -First puzzle (object placement) is neat. If it doesn't already use RFID tags to open the door, that's how most "put stuff in place and thing will open" puzzles work. -The rest are... not so much. A little too straightforward. -Not crazy about the host, but whatever. -The whole "we were all treating you like a football team back there" part is totally true, though. That's a huge part of working backstage on these. Best takeaway: "...Immediately, the first thing that I want to do is get into another escape room."

I work at one as well and help design them...I agree with a lot of that. I don't love "move the black light around until you hit something" "puzzles". The black light clue shouldn't have counted as a clue (I never count that kind of thing.) I think the first puzzle was triggered by a host rather than actual RFID since this was made for a show. That's a lot to rig up and a lot of trigger items that would need to be exactly in the right place.

I agree with everything you've said here, as well as Andrew's comments. I've done over 40 rooms since last year and this one definitely wasn't my cup of tea. Immersion is a huge thing for me, and there area few things that would make me groan.

@illusion-xiii

Great, excellent points, especially about the useless hint. That seemed like such a major flub in the production, and I hope they noticed it and fix it in future episodes. If you're going to make the "Helping Hand" such a costly item, then it should be guaranteed to actually be helpful. My one disagreement with you, well not really disagreement because you're right, but I don't think it's a negative: you refer to it as a really easy room, and based on the context (i.e. it's at the beginning of a list of criticisms), it seems like you're saying that's a bad thing. These guests are celebrities who, in many cases, will not have any experience with escape rooms (including at least one acknowledged "virgin" in this episode). I'm certain that you, who work in the business, would never recommend that a first timer jump in with a medium or high difficulty escape room. That would just be mean and unfair. So they have to make these rooms easy so that the guests aren't simply stumped and embarrassed (which would not make for a particularly gripping experience for the viewers). Now, maybe, if they're smart, they could take some of the all-stars (like Jason Ritter), and have a special, more challenging episode down the line. But for now, it makes total sense that they'd stick with relatively simple puzzles so that the guests, who aren't experienced escapers (escapists?), can have a fair chance at victory. Does that make sense?

I agree the only red hearing should be red herring players create. Otherwise it's a way to make it harder without actually thinking of logical puzzles

@Robertlavigne1

I disagree about the first puzzle being clever. It makes no sense and the players are very aware of it. They ask, why would putting stuff like the picture do anything? It destroys the immersion, and is just a puzzle for a puzzles sake. I can make no logical connection between recreating a picture and a door opening. Is the janitor of the museum opening the door for them in exchange for some light house keeping? This puzzle concept is neat, and could easily find it's way into several escape room plots, but not this one.

It's Jason's years of working side by side with the madman himself, Alex Hirsch, that has made him so good at puzzles! Once you spend so much time with someone like that, you're bound to be a puzzle master. That being said, if somehow we could see the main cast of Gravity Falls do an escape room, I might soil my pants.

So we have Dipper Pines as a player and Sheriff Evie as the host. Hell yeah!

jason ritter is dipper pines of course he's great at solving things

I love how interconnected this group is. I know they’re all friends but Carla and Clea were leads/love interests in Carnivale (2003), Melanie and Clea were co-stars in But I’m a Cheerleader (1999) and Jason, Clea, and Melanie are all reunited co-stars in The Intervention (2016).

Matthew Schell, I agree.

Holy shit! I met Jason Ritter in a club in Glasgow about 10 years ago. I was a pretty wrecked and rambled nonsense to him for a good 15 minutes. I never knew who he was at the time, but when he could finally get a word in he told me who he was and that he had been in Freddy Vs Jason. I imdb'd him the next day and sure enough it was the same dude. True story.

Oh gosh, this was PURE GOLD! Janet was pricelless, the program format is great with the comments, the checklist, the escape room itself was quite entertaining and everything made somewhat sense! I've been trying to stop biting my nails. And while watching this, I bit off one of the only 4 I ever managed to NOT bite. WELL THANKS! Incredible show! Looking forward to more episodes! Good job, everyone! PS.: I so wanted to be famous or media-relevant enough to be on the show AHAHAH

I love this series on G&S! What a great team in this episode... I love the host, too. Love it! 😄

How fun! I just love all these ladies and Jason was just an added bonus. I have enjoyed these shows. Hopefully we will see more

"Nailing This"... NAILING THIS... This ladies do not know a good pun when it is shared... NAILING THIS!!!

I Hope we are getting more of these. I loved watching the ones that are here.

Awesome! escape rooms are super fun and this didn't seem like an easy one either, which makes it all the better! :) great job and look forward to seeing more!

just stumbled across this, love it. love Jason/Melanie together and it's so cute to see them early on in the relationship. pretty sure they weren't even public at this point but at @13:18 after he solves yet another part you can hear Melanie go "aw baby, good for you!" SWOON.

I loved this! I can't wait for more!!!

Carnivale was awesome. Ended way before its time. Wish they'd bring it back on Netflix.

I really want this series to continue. Gave me so much happiness to watch as I used to love escape rooms but most are not accessible and I can't do them now I'm wheelchair bound

Ritter looks like someone who got an early peek and is trying to make it seem hard to not give it away, but isn't succeeding

very interesting. nice vid geek and sundry! 👍

I'm not the most ardent G&S follower (I think I like the fact this channel exists more than I actually watch it), but I'm a big Escape Room fan, and I absolute love this. I think the visual layout you use to help viewers track what's been found is pretty neat. Looking forward to more episodes. Also, 3 Workjuice players in this one, yay!

I love this! Thanks to everyone involved :-)

That was so fun to watch! They made a great team.

Jason Ritter is what we have left to remember the Brilliance of John Ritter, what a great loss.

That looks like great fun! I wish I participated in one of these events. I instantly knew to use that black light on the floor for something written there. But I thought the cleverest trick was the hidden door from the janitor's closet. I hope you publish more of these, Janet!

Jason Ritter is definitely a puzzle beast and let the team to the victory, but Carla Gallo deserves credit for that last puzzle. They wouldn't have beaten the room without her. I love Janet and I think she did a good job, but I agree with people here who said she should be more involved with the show. Some ideas are: - making her a narrator instead of just writing comments on screen; - putting her in the room with them as a character in the story who sort of guides them and gives the hints (like a cop, or a hostage, or the place's owner, or the leader of the burglars in this specific room, or something like that); - having her as part of the team who solves the puzzles every episode. Nice show, guys! I'll be looking forward to the next episodes.

This was fun to watch, they were awesome ;)

Great series, excited to see more!

This is the best? So fascinating, and a great idea! Super cool sets, too

I love this show already

Please do more of this!! :)

This show is the absolute best!!! LOVE IT!

Gimme all the Janet Varney ya got.

This is a fun show, and a good idea. Very impressive Miss Varney

I loved watching this and I am so glad you guys are doing more😆😆😆

This was awesome!

Honestly, wasn't expecting to like this. But it was decently fun to watch.

There needs to be more of this series

gosh darn i love janet varney!!!!

Whoever does Janet Varney's makeup is awesome. I really want to try the light blue eyeliner on the lower lid now. Also, yay Gravity Falls!

You'd probably enjoy a 6-episode series called Race to Escape. It pits two teams in identical escape rooms competing to escape first. Winning team gets a cash prize amount determined by the time remaining on the clock, making hints risky since they cost time AND money. The puzzles are very inventive and cleverly themed to the room (ie. Barber Shop, Classroom, Chinese Restaurant, Garage, etc)

Janet is so charming, she completely steals the show in this..

Janet is a great host! Love the show :)

Way better than Ritter did on Tabletop.

I find the blue eyeliner (?) under the eyes unsettling...

I love this. I want so much more haha

I love these escape room videos

OMG i love all this people!

When Jason came out I was like "Why do you look and sound so familiar?" then when he STARTED saying Gravity Falls (he only got to Gravi-) I was immediately like "DIPPER! I'm an idiot why did that take me so long it's my favorite cartoon! Maybe it's the beard it's gotten a little fuller." Edit: I love that the one from Gravity Falls; which is full of mysteries to solve,was the one solving almost everything good job Dip- I MEAN JASON.

Interesting fact - Melania Lynskey and Jason Ritter are engaged (boyfriend/girlfriend for four years prior). I always find it amazing just how much more prolific Jason Ritter's career is than his father's was. I get so sad thinking of John Ritter, and wondering what he would think of his son's acting success.

This show is awesome!

Damn that shit was like a MOVIE. Crazy ass ending

i LOVE this

Much fun!

I really liked this series... I wish it had continued...

If I ever go into an escape room, I'm bringing Jason Ritter in with me. DUDE KILLED IT.

This should be on tv!

Are there going to be more of these?? I love watching them!

I feel like Jason Gritter should be good at this cause this is basically what gravity falls is
