    As someone who watched Not What he Seems the night it aired I can confirm that it was absolutely crazy.

      I remember watching this show when I was about 8 or 9 years old. It wasn't every episode because... I'm not thinking about doing that and cable/on demand is difficult, but I was still sort of familiar with the direction of the show. I think that was the first time that I was ever shocked by anything on a screen. I had been invested in movies before, but that was the first time that I understood why watching a series live is so cool.
      I rewatched this show about two years ago and I can definitely say that it's one of my favorites. It's not perfect, but there's so much to love about it that they outweigh any issue the show has tenfold.

I was trying to grow up too fast like Dipper but also scared of being an adult like Mabel, and the shows conclusion of moving forward but staying true to who you are has always stuck with me. I'm grateful this show exists

    Something about this show…. I think it’s due to the fact that I was around the same age as dipper and Mabel. When the show finally ended I felt so emotional because it perfectly incapsulates the underlying dread of growing up and change. Now as I am in my final year of high school, I rewatched the show and realized how emotionally attached to this show I am.

    For a LOT of the series, Alex Hirsch was working on it practically by himself. He had many months full of all-nighters-sometimes 2-3 nights straight. If Disney actually gave him the proper crew, time, and freedom, the show could've had episodes that were more fleshed out and less of a rushed ending. That being said, it's still my top fave.

      I feel like you could split apart the A plots and B plots of The Last Mabelcorn and have Ford join along with Mabel for that episode (maybe drop Candy or Grenda for the sake of not having too many characters). Repurpose the B plot into another episode's A plot, preferably before The Last Mabelcorn so we can explore Ford's guilt in this episode as part of the whole 'pure of heart' thing. Mabel could ask him why he's so convinced he'll never be pure of heart, even if it was a scam, and Ford could open up to her a bit. IDK maybe this is a bad idea I just really want Mabel and Ford to bond, and also just Ford to be in the show more in general.

    You forgot one the smallest and most touching details of Weirdmaggedon Part 3: The actor who voices the Bus Driver is none other than Kyle MacLachlan, who played detective Dale Cooper in Twin Peaks. That show was clearly a major source for inspiration to Gravity Falls and other shows like it that came before, and it is not difficult to assume that Gravity Falls would simply not exist if it were not for Twin Peaks. So seeing Kyle being the one to bring the kids home is incredibly fitting, as in many ways he was the one that brought them there.
    Sidenote: Alex Hirsch wanted David Lynch, Twin Peaks creator to be Bill's voice actor, but he was not avaliable.

    that actually makes sense; their purpose was actually to HELP people, and the way they did that was erasing traumatic memories from people.

    To be honest I don't think Stan being able to regain his memories was completely unprecedented in the show itself. All McGucket had to do to start regaining his memories and sanity was watch his memories play out on a TV (and it naturally would've been harder to regain than Stan given how long his memories were lost), so I don't think there's any reason the photo album shouldn't have worked the same way.

    Fun fact about The Last Mabelcorn (as told from the DVD commentary) the episode was originally supposed to be about Wendy Corduroy getting weather-controlling powers, but when the script came back, Alex wasn't satisfied and decided to come up with a brand-new episode in two days, which is how we got Last Mablecorn.
    The writers REALLY did want to give Wendy her own full episode, and made several attempts to do so, all of which ultimately failed. According to Hirsch, it was his only "real failure" in making the show, and he says if he ever did it all again, he'd make sure Wendy got her full episode this time.

      While I’m sad that Wendy plotline got scrapped, that plot line you mentioned honestly sounds like something best suited for a Dipper, Stan, or Mabel plotline, because they would be the type to misuse/abuse powers like that. I can see why Alex would scrap that. Wendy is not one to misuse powers to prop herself up, but to use it just to have fun, she’s totally fine with the skills that she has (mostly because she was raised in an environment where her dad helped her value the skills she has) and I think with her character, the challenge that her plotline provides should mesh well with her grounded nature, and giving her powers isn’t the answer. I remember that Alex wanted to make Wendy bisexual, and I feel that there could have been an episode focusing on her crushing on a girl and trying to express herself. I believe that grounded conflicts like that (like how Smiling Friends had stories where the main characters helped others with real-life problems) would’ve greatly benefitted her character because it could expose a different side of her that finds it hard to express herself because of how socially conscious she is, as at the time, and even today, LGBTQIA+ people were and continue to be stigmatized. And GF was made in 2012, so it would still be hard even if Alex found a way like this.

      I think there is a rise of creators making short series with 2-3 seasons, and it could be because of Gravity Falls. Matt Braly wanted Amphibia to have a 3 act structure and it ended with a great show with the best ending to date. Dana Terrace also wants a 3 act structure, and while Disney screwed her over with three specials instead of a full season 3, I'm sure she plan ahead enough to not rush her ending for the show. Other creators would probably freak out if they hadn't plan ahead. Centaurworld wanted 2 seasons with possible expansion if fans wanted more. Considering how Netflix shut down their studio, it was nice that we didn't get a cliff hanger like other shows. Same with Kipo and Kid Cosmic having a trilogy of seasons.
      While a lot of fans want more seasons, it's better to end the show as is rather than becoming a husk or be unceremoniously cancelled with a cliffhanger.

    Fun Fact: Roadside Attraction was supposed to be before Ford came back, but they moved it to later because they were still working on the finale and needed filler. Which is why there's no mention of Ford or the barrier that they just spent an episode putting up so Bill couldn't possess any of them.
    Edit: Also, about not using the President's Key to open Mabel's bubble, I'm pretty sure that it doesn't really count as "In America", which was one of the things about the President's Key, that it can only open every lock in America. Bill's power is beyond any President, it wouldn't have worked.

      @@utmelidzedaniel418 The Supernatural Black Market features in one of the stories in the EXTREMELY CANON graphic novel called "Lost Legends", which is a collection of stories told to us about the Pines Family and their friends. One of the stories is about them helping Pacifica learn to stop stressing over appearances after she got a mark on her face just before a family picture day. Her solution was to summon something talked about in Journal 2 that would "fix" her face, but it was actually a face-stealer that ends up stealing Mabel's face when she tries to stop him. Pacifica and Dipper follow him into a place called the Supernatural Black Market, where being human is very, very risky and they have to pretend to be supernatural creatures while trying to find the man that stole Mabel's face. They get inside by using the President's Key. It's a very fun collection of stories, with all kinds of Easter Eggs and implied lore for people to enjoy!

    Pacifica’s redemption arc is one of my favorites and I’m so happy someone else is team Dipcifica (however you would spell that). I think Northwest Manor is the very best gravity falls episode, except for maybe take back the falls. Maybe it’s just cuz I’m a sucker for a good ghost story, but that episode will always be my favorite (I just have to give the finale credit for being the best finale of any show ever). All the horror elements are done so well without it being too scary to be a children’s show (I especially love the call back to the “last form you’ll ever take”) and I love watching Pacifica finally break free from her parents’ bad influence. I also love how with her redemption arc they don’t fix everything immediately- she’s still kind of obnoxious and entitled in the series finale, just less so and more willing to help.

    Gravity falls makes me absolutely devastated my family didn’t have cable growing up. My brother and i would’ve loved to follow along with it if we were able to watch it when it aired lmao, unfortunately i never got to see it until late 2020/early 2021 and by that point i was 17 years old. The impact this show must’ve had on the other 2000’s kids must’ve been insane and while i’m glad i eventually got to see it, i’m sad i missed out on it in its peak :(

      I mean to be fair, I watched it while airing and it was a pain. Disney had the stupid idea to take one of thier most culturally relevant shows and move it to Disney XD, which most cable providers didn't even provide. Almost everyone had to bootleg the entirety of S2 or just wait until Disney aired it, which was always like once a month at like 9-10 pm. I would have to fight my parents to get control of the TV because I knew if I missed it, I would get spoiled by the fans immediately.

    As a twin, I disagree with anyone who hates Mabel for handing over the rift, which is really the biggest reason someone could have to hate her. I don’t think you can hate Mabel for that unless you have a twin sibling, as if I was in the situation she was in, I’d do the same thing, and I’m sure my twin would, too. That is just my thoughts on Mabel being so hated. She is a well written character, and one of my favorite characters in the entire show because of how realistic she is

    two minor misunderstandings that were explained in the commentary that i can’t help but mention
    1: in the robbie mind control episode it wasn’t actually mind control, the excuse that another band wrote it was literally true. she just thought it was sweet that he cared enough to write her a song, then was upset when he revealed he didn’t write it. it wasn’t explained super well and kind of came off as actual mind control, it was just based on that satanic panic stuff about rock music
    2. in sock opera the timer may have not actually been real! bill can only appear in dreams, and we don’t see dipper fall asleep. it’s likely that he fell asleep at the computer and bill manipulated his dream to give him a ticking clock. it may have just been to manipulate him into making a decision on the spot rather than thinking about it

    I watched this show pretty much all at once as they reran a marathon in prep for weirdmagedon. It just blew me away and when they stopped with the reveal of Stanford the imagery of the two stans sitting on the swings was just heart stopping. Then watching weirdmagedon itself as it premiered was amazing. This show was amazing and I make sure to rewatch it at least twice every year.

      YES!!!! The calm swing scene after my mind exploded made my heart just….stop. Time just seemed to stop in that moment! Just how quiet and sentimental the credit scene was after all the INSANITY that was the past twenty minutes was…..heart stopping like you said. I sat there frozen with my mind trying to process as the gentle sway of the swings played in the background and I saw the two brothers looking off into the distance swinging together. Absolutely insane decision by the show team. It was an utterly brilliant end scene to an episode as mind blowing as it was, ESPECIALLY right after the utterly insane ending scene of Northwest manner right before it, alluding Bill, the Apocolypse, the machine, and the countdown all in ten seconds!!! The buildup to the episode was insane!!!! And the contrast from the insanity of the end scene for Northwest Manor vs the quiet and calm of Not What He Seems….it brings tears to my eyes it’s so emotional!

    I feel like Dipper's impatience with Soos in Land Before Swine makes sense, as it stems from how much he cares for Mabel. He's gone through time and seen what losing Waddles does to her, so it would make sense that he has far less patience for Soos' clumsiness in this circumstance, in my opinion anyway.

    Here’s the thing about Stan getting his memory back. The reversed final words of Bill involved wishing to be reborn and spelling out axolotl. In a “relatively” non-canon book, there was one confirmed canon secret. At the very end, the Pines twins find a wish granting Axolotl and they wish for information about Bill, in which it confirms among other things that it has met Bill before. Not to mention the big event Disney had for Gravity Falls fans traveling the world ending up in a hidden place that had a real life Bill statue, it is safe to assume he didn’t disappear.
    Even if you disregard these events, consider Bill’s nature as a sort of memory demon. He was wiped away along with Stanley’s memories. What the memory gun normally does is extract a person’s memory and put it into a tube, effectively putting the memories in one place if not wiping/destroying them. It would be reasonable to assume that if Stan was able to get his memories back, it is still very likely that Bill is alive, or at the very least, dormant.
    Will this mean a future reboot or season? Most likely not. It is perfect where it ended by itself, but Alex definitely left a few little plot holes open for the rest of us.
