The Absurd Genius Of Gravity Falls

Understanding the genius of Gravity Falls and exactly what made it special is relatively easy. The best Gravity Falls episodes span mystery, puzzles and action and do all of it well. Disney may have created their best show and it lasted only two seasons. While there is no season 3, Dipper and Bill are still a topic of conversation in animation. Gravity Falls and all its weirdmageddon strangeness is one of modern animations best shows.

    In the episode “Dungeons, Dungeons, and more Dungeons,” the Pines family watch an episode of the TV show “Ducktective.” In the show, there is a plot twist where it is revealed that Ducktective had a twin brother. Soos says moments after the big reveal that he “predicted that like a year ago.” This is a reference to how some people predicted that Stan had a twin brother (Ford) before the show ever got around to revealing him.

    He was also exhausted by the end too. In the commentaries on the DVD collection, he mentions how losing a fellow writer from the show pushed him past what felt he could do. He did want to end it concisely because of shows like the Simpsons, Spongebob, etc. but he also wanted to give the series what it deserved. That usually involved 24 hour work days at times.

I felt it wasn't for me. Well, years passed and a friend told me I'd probably love the show if I gave it a shot. So, last year I decided to binge it all with my new Disney + account and was amazed how good it was.

    I personally think a way better example of this is in the body swap carpet episode. When Soos shows the twins and Stan the secret room he finds, in the background you can see Stan walk in and pick up a pair of old glasses that he holds on to for most of the episode. At first it doesn't really make that much sense since they just look like the glasses he wears until you realize upon a rewatch that they were Fords glasses and Stan likely sealed the wall up after he got lost in the portal. Throwing Stan in the background of that episode for a few seconds at a time looking at these glasses is a great yet subtle way of conveying how much he really misses Ford, but also how guilty he feels due to him covering up a part of the shack that had too many reminders of his brother for him to handle.

    I have a very deep fear of change. I've always hated it, even with the smallest of things. My friend once wore the same sweatshirt everyday for 8 months. One day he changed sweatshirts like it was a new day, and I cried like it was the end of the world. Your videos tend to focus on older shows or just childhood memories in general. The way you explain things and how your videos are written bring me back to the age I watched them-- and remind me of the theories and emotions that happened for me during those times. To most people; your channel is fun, humorous, nostalgic. To me, it is something truly special.

    Gravity Falls was incredibly ahead of it’s time. Everything was so perfectly laid out. From the writing, to the subtle easter eggs/references in the show that you have to rewind a couple times to catch. Everything was perfect. Even though at first glance, it looks like your average goofy kids cartoon, it very clearly was intended for an older audience that’s able to fully grasp and understand everything the show throws at you. This is the only show I’ve ever watched that managed to make me shed a few tears on multiple occasions. And the finale made me feel emotions I never even knew I had. Words can’t explain just how good this show is. It’s one of those shows that you have to see for yourself to understand the genius behind it

How about this one from Summerween? (probably not the exact wording) "Dipper, we're almost 13 now. We can't go trick or treating many more times. Now might be it."

    I was along for most of the gravity falls ride, and it was such an immersive experience that if you had asked me 15 minutes ago how many episodes the show was, I would probably have given a number closer to 80. The show really expanded out from the 22-minute episodes on screen to such an extent that even in the 4-month long waits in between individual episodes, it still felt like the show was running. Every week something new would be discovered, a new code would be cracked, some "leak" would appear that completely re-contextualized previous episodes. Gravity Falls wasn't a show, it was a once in a lifetime experience and a team effort.

    My freshman year of high school, I randomly decided to give this show a shot. I personally had never watched a lot of mainstream shows growing up, this being one of them. 2 of my friends loved this show to a fault and overhyped it before I knew what it was, so I didn't like it or watch it. They would always talk about how intense it was and funny and mysterious so I thought they were glorifying the show beyond what it was capable of. I was clearly wrong This show has so much to offer: comedy, mystery, interesting characters, character development, and silly poltline subtly exposing a much larger plotline, realities of life explained in simple characters, bonds between twins, and so much more. This show has everything and more and doesn't even age. Even though I only started liking it fairly recently, this show means a ton to me and I'm glad I came back all this time to give it a chance because it blew me away and changed me for good.

At the same time, he had a somewhat successful carreer (at least successful enough to finance all of this and a decent living).

Nostalgia is such a tricky thing too, almost always making you question yourself if ya decide to take another viewing. But gravity falls? It's absolutely just as funny, tear wrenching and complex as you remembered. I remember being in school coming home to the weekly and then later random episodes. Watching it with my best friend and sobbing at the ending. Clutching each other because a series which we had absolutely fallen in love with was ending. Going through growing up and the problems there, how a summer was never long enough. That was our whole lives too, it was relatable but so much more. I can say gravity falls definitely means a lot to me, everyone should give it a chance.

    I was sad that this show was so short but was so happy it with the fact that it would come to completion. It was hard to follow as the show randomly aired. I’m happy I have the full series on Disney + and on blu-Ray

    This was one of the few shows where a man had an great idea for solid story with an amazing character arc, he made it, and didn't force any more material into it for money. Hirsch, was the fucking man

    I love this show so much. The ending made me cry like a baby. It was done so well, connecting the feelings of the characters to those of the viewers. As summer was coming to an end - we didn't want the story to end as well. So glad that the show comitted to its final and didn't continue. Stories with a great ending are so much stronger than those that drag on and on.

    So true! The end was so beautiful, I couldn't sleep that night cuz of the emotions. It tied all of the loose ends, and the scene where Stan and the kids depart was just gut-punching. So glad I got to experience such an amazing show, I'll always cherish it 💖

    ​@hannanags In the classic seasons, Krabs was a great character. But over time, him (and the others) got flanderized, instead of giving the character more depth, like with Stan.

    In the carpet diem episode where the twins are fighting over the room and switch minds. When they were upstairs with grenda and candy switching minds we see stan in the living room for a moment just holding and looking sad at a pair of glasses before hiding them away after hearing the kids scream. That is definitely fords glasses. The scene made me feel so sad for stan 🥺

    "If you've ever taken a road trip through the Pacific Northwest, you've probably seen a bumper sticker for a place called Gravity Falls. It's not on any maps, and most people have never heard of it. Some people think it's a myth. But if you're curious, don't wait. Take a trip. Find it. Its out there somewhere in the woods, waiting." -Mason "Dipper" Pines

    i would pay 10 years of my life for 1-2 more seasons of this godly childhood movie, i remember coming back from school daily checking if there are any teasers leaks or episodes that comes out and remember watching new episodes from react channels thru a mirror since its mirrored due to copyright
