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.

What show, any show, would you want to see make a comeback?

[domi]

I love how this shows fandom sometimes dies but then all of a sudden it just returns out of nowhere

"I'll let you know that duck-tective is an adults' show and has many jokes that go over kids' heads"
Best meta joke ever

[IloveHirotaka]

I can’t believe I didn’t realize that Stan was reminded of his brother, I really thought he was just being narcissistic.

My only problem with gravity falls is that every time i rewatch this, i wish i had a fresh mind, not knowing any of the plot or secrets, i cant wait to show this to my kids one day

[megabamb]

the "get 'em" dude have a hard time choosing between puma shirt and panther shirt,
*shows up a couple episodes later with half puma half panther shirt*

Gravity Falls have the best Cartoon quotes
_"When there's no cops around, anything's legal!"_

I’d say the funniest jokes were the ones that played on cliché jokes. Kind of like the part of Double Dipper when Dipper says: “We’re not gonna turn on each other like in the movies, right?”

[katyb]

in the second episode, stan mentions how he spent his time fishing without the kids "talking to his reflection." stan was talking to his reflection, in a boat named the stan o' war (the name he and ford had given their boat when they were kids.) i don't think it's a stretch to say he was imagining himself hanging out on the boat with ford like they'd planned :(

I like the moment when Mabel tells Pacifica that she’s a bleach blond rich girl stereotype

[audoodle]

Fun fact: Hirsch once said he had a plan for a 3 season show with the end of season 2 being the reveal of Ford but he cut it down because people had correctly figured out what it was and he didn’t want to drag it out if everyone knew already. That’s some dedication to avoiding filler.

[kayleecaca]

I used to be so sad that it ended when it did, but honestly now I'm so glad they didn't drag it on and ruin its reputation.

[scptime]

It feels like Gravity Falls is just masquerading as a kids show and really it's just meant for adults. It's insane how good it is and how well it all fits together.

[desireahernandez]

I love how even the minor characters had a loveable and valid role in the strange town of Gravity falls. Makes me feel like I took an actual vacation there, and now I miss it :/

[benpickens]

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.

“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. It's out there somewhere in the woods. Waiting.” _~ Dipper_

The reason no one other than the fans has given it a shot is because everyone who gives it a shot becomes a fan

[crashschwarzen]

i am so glad this series dident get cancelled to early or got stretched out to much, it had a almost perfect run

[rycalamo]

I wish I could could zap myself with Mcgucket’s memory gun and experience this amazing show all over again

[bmo]

When Gravity Falls only had 40 episodes and it felt like 100s, that’s when you know it was a good show
