It’s basically confirmed that he for at least a short time traveled the Multiverse with Rick and his gang that theory is basically confirmed with all the different references throughout both shows and their extended media Since Disney owns Hulu, they buy extension on Rick and Morty.

He then gets banned for all the damage Mothman caused. It also could explain why Stan makes his tourist trap exhibits by combining two animals together

Even cooler twist would be its 2 alternate versions of Stan and Ford, one timeline where it follows the show, and another where it shows what could've been if Stan deactivated the portal just before Ford was pulled thru, one where Ford just sits down with Stan and explains everything, leading to Stan and Ford working together or something Would be sick to see Stan and Fords journeys, with the end of the season lining them up with A Tale of Two Stans, maybe jumping back and forth to show contrast and similarities, maybe showing some of what Journal 3 describes with Ford's time in parallel dimensions, just seems kinda fun having a definitive timeline of events for the show
6:42 THIS IS SO FUNNY TO ME as gravity falls started to blow up again it made me think about how Spamton feels like an Alex Hirsch character 😭😭 (at the very least I think Alex would really like Spamton from what I know about his writing and stuff)
I think that a Season 3 should still be centered on Dipper and Mabel, but still telling the same message about childhood as ever-- with Dipper and Mabel missing the previous summer and the fun they had, disappointed that they would never be able to have live in quite the same way ever again. The main point in the story and the characters' growth could be Dipper and Mabel coming to terms with that, accepting that they aren't kids anymore and trusting the future to do them well. There could even be an Amphibia-or-Owl-House-style postcredits scene after the finale in which it shows Dipper and Mabel as adults (perhaps 23-year-olds, ten years later) doing things and revealing where the future wound up taking them, revealing their new jobs and life goals. For example, they could be meeting at the Valentino family graveyard, with Robbie as the new owner (that would be funny), visiting their great uncles' graves. Perhaps they could leave flowers there, recounting their amazing adventures with now-adult Wendy and more-adult Soos. Of course, it's never too late to have one. more. epic. summer. Heck, maybe Season 3 could even be SET with Dipper and Mabel as adults, with that scene as the beginning! They could be visiting Gravity Falls together for nostalgia before running into all sorts of things from their childhood-- that baby pterodactyl as an adult, perhaps. All to show it's never too late to have one. more. epic. summer.
I think a prequel would be amazing. One where Stan is goin on crazy adventures, parties, and getting in trouble with the feds. While Ford goes on interdimensional adventures and it shows all his weird encounters and him writing the books. Also I would love to see Gravity Falls and Rick and Morty collab because its hinted in both shows that they can travel to each others worlds, As an example when Stan opens the portal, his notebook, mug, and pen crossed the portal, u can see it in one of the Rick and Morty portals. Season 8 of Rick and Morty comes out in 2025, and Alex Hirsch's Contract ends in 2026 around there. Just a possibility. Also Alex Hirsch has helped in the makings of Rick and Morty. I would love to see that collab. And maybe also a movie about Mabel and Dipper growing up.
Id honestly love to see a series meant for older viewers like F&C, but centered around Stan and Ford, like them travelling the world finding and solving new mysteries, maybe even an "Antigravity Falls" like the upside down from stranger things could come into play!
Honestly i'd like a 10-episode limited series following dipper and mabel as teenagers or young adults and cover darker and more existential themes with some eldritch horror sprinkled in. But a stan and ford miniseries could good too. Its just that personally if we get more animated stuff, i'd want to see it with the pines twins
A spin off series with mable and dipper as teens going through highschool and the experiences that come with it or as young adults with an element horror incorporated with be actually be ideal in my opinion.
Nearly everyone: “if we get a more gravity falls I want it to be about where everyone is today” Me: if we get a more gravity falls I want it to be about Stan and Fords adventures in the arctic
Ngl I would LOVE a version of each episode that has multiple additional parts that shows the aftermath of the pines failing. So the episodes play out basically the same but they are different to lead the pines to loosing
@@Supasmartguy I do think it’s funny that Alex wrote this deep heartfelt post about why he made the series, how it’s representative of the feeling of growing up and how summer doesn’t last forever, how proud he is of a making a series that actually has a concrete ending… And all fans can think is “Well sure this is super heartfelt, but IT’S BEEN TEN YEARS SO MAYBE he changed his mind about this whole ‘the theme of the series is childhood and how nothing lasts forever’ SENTIMENTAL CRAP and we can have MORE CONTENT FOREVER”
@@cartoonishidealism582 Disney already confirmed that they're in discussions with him, and the end of season 2 very heavily hinted that they would return to Gravity Falls the next summer, and the show could simply become less about growing up and more about transitioning into a life when you're older for season 3.
What would do the series wonders is either a What if gravity falls show, or just a special every now and then, exploring adventures that flesh out the characters more, or side characters, some specials wouldn’t even feature the Pines Family.
15:55 OKAY BUT WHAT IF AT THE END OF SOME EPISODES, YOU SEE STAN AND FORD WITH DIPPER MABLE AND MAYBE SOOS AND WENDY AND THEY ARE TELLING THEM STORIES. IT WOULD GIVE THEM A CHANCE TO AGE UP CHARACTERS IF THEY WANTED TOO !!!!
Anti-Gravity Falls would be a great way of making a show that shows what Stanford Went through after “A Tale of Two Stans”. Picture this as an opening to the first episode: It’s a black screen with the echoed voices of Stanley and Stanfords fight but as we hear Ford shout “STANLEYYYY-“ as he’s sucked into his portal the screen flashes as we see Ford exit the portal on the other side leading right into what was written in the journal 3 book. Then we see Ford’s episodic adventures as he’s exploring, escaping and helping people from bill and his henchmainiacs.
Gravity Falls: The Other Side Prequel series that follows Stanford after he got thrown into the multiverse by his portal. I could imagine the intro would go so hard
I've been following since the days we were making/solving the codes and theories on this channel and while I've been off and on watching since, gravity falls content I consume is all by you
If we're getting a Season -1 with Stan and Ford, then I want Shermie Pines to be in it too. Be great to see them visit Ford at his lab and staying in touch with Stan during the first half, then dealing with Ford disappearing and Stan taking over the Mystery Shack.
man. the mabel in the thumbnail looks so sadistic that feels like bill is really controling her body.good job making that. good video too. this is hard to finde these kind of masterpiece
I feel like if Alex did do a spin-off for Gravity Falls, focusing on Stan and Ford, It would make sense if there were references or appearances from either Shermie, Mabel and Dipper's parents, or even Mabel and Dipper themselves as infants.
Main things I'd want for a Gravity Falls Season 3 is more interactions between Dipper and Pacifica, really felt a lot could've still be done with seeing how Pacifica's parents reacted after she finally stood up to them. Really felt there should've been more there.
Considering that Bill is something of his creation, and therefore a part of his mind, that is a genuine possibility. Because he technically is Bill, so Bill IS trolling us. Or maybe the events of Gravity Falls actually happened to him and his sister when they visited their aunt in Oregon as kids. Just a thought. Absolutely ridiculous, but fun to think about.
Season -1, more books, and a movie! All three! You’ve already given an idea for a prequel, but I’d add in that the Stans are sharing these stories while off sailing around the world to catch up. You know, there should totally be an episode about Stan and Eda’s weekend in Las Vegas, because we all know that Eda is Marylin. As for the movie, Dipper and Mabel’s variants seek revenge. See you next Summer. It should also have Dipper and Pacifica finally getting together: they’re the best ship in the franchise! But when it comes to the books, the sky’s the limit. There could be one about Dipper’s new Pine Tree Journal detailing his and Mabel’s teenage years. Or a book about Stan and Ford’s adventures at sea. Heck, give Pacifica a book about what happens to her Wendy and the others after the twins leave. The possibilities are endless. But what about Bill? Well, I say they name him return as one of the primary antagonists an omega crossover between all the Fisney cartoons! An homage to Secret Wars of epic proportions. You name it, it’s in it. Just imagine Kim Possible fighting side by side with Dipper and Mabel. Or Luz with Anne. Star with Phineas and Ferb. Perry with Stitch. It goes on and on until they all come together to fight and bond in harmony. It could be an epic 1 season show.
My personal hope and theory us that Season -1 is going to be Bill's Story, showing us his early life leading up to the destruction of Euclydia. We've been getting SO much Bill lore lately! Including the names of his parents. It really feels like they're leading to a full-on Bill prequel mini-series
I think it would be cool to have a Bill centered surreal humor series or smth like that, half funny nightmare fuel, half existential crisis. I really liked how The Book Of Bill turned out and it would be so cool to get to see more of him and his narrative style in general
now thinking about it the potential for a story about stan and ford has so much potential with the old series being centered around childhood a prequal could be about adulthood and the growing pains that come with it and with it being for older audiences it's the old fan base that is going through the same problems and also theres stories that could be made after gravity falls with the stan o war and to keep the trend of being about stages in life that could be about old age and coming in terms with it which I feel like could be hard for ford
it would be neat to have a season 3 and have it just side episodes, like things in the past or future, like showing bill before he destroyed his universe, ford while in the nightmare realm and the stan-o-war exploring the anomaly that was detected at the ending of the last episode, things like that
im definetley a new generation gravity falls fan (started watching in 2022) since i was a nick kid growing up, and literally only watched loud house/spongebob. however, it'd be really cool to see another gravity falls season since i wasnt really consious when the show ended (i was 5-6)
I think a sequel series of the kids going on a summer adventure with Stan and ford on the stan-o-war 2, visiting different countries and mysterious islands finding more paranormal activity would be lit
I still think that Alex is working on a Gravity Fall Spin Off show with Bill as the main character, but having a Prequel about Standford and Standly would be Wild!!! Only time will tell. Also, Animators have RIGHTS, please support them!!
if they could combine this idea with the Stan twins's adventures in Antarctica, like if a ton of the series was them telling stories of what they've been through + Ford in the Nightmare realm and the much creepier cryptids Stanley encountered in his years at the town, I WOULD BE SO SO HAPPY!
What I want is a remaster. Every single adventure in the books, shorts, everything, animated as a full length episode. From their parents telling them they're going to Gravity Falls, to them coming back home. And give Wendy and Ford WAAAY more screen time. It is criminal that they did not use them enough. They don't even talk to each other. Not once.
What if, -1 series, antigravity falls, is set in the winter time? Like back when Stan and Ford re-meet up? Basically telling more of the stan-bro's backstory.
An idea that I've always liked is since Season 1/2 focused on themes surrounding childhood and the finite nature of it, what if season 3 is following Dipper and Mabel returning to Gravity Falls as adults and them facing the struggles that young adults face?
Honestly, for a sequel, I'd love a show that focused on Stan and Ford. As a sequel, a technical season 3, we could get everything you talked about and more. We could see them go on their adventures as old men and, because they're older, they're going to reminisce on their adventures as kids and even sit down and talk about everything they went through while they were apart. They might even video chat with Dipper and Mabel, telling them some of the stories, especially as they're preparing to leave middle school and transition to high school after the next summer. We'd get to hear more about their experiences in high school, including more information about Stan's relationship with Carla. However, there's an idea for a movie that Chestnut Tanuki came up with based on a theory she has about the book of Bill's canon audience. It's not us and it's none of the characters we've seen, but they're closer to the characters than you'd think. She believes that the reader of "The Book of Bill" is none other than the twins' father and that this could be set up for a possible continuation. I agreed with the idea and how it could have us pick up where we left off. Dipper and Mabel arrive back in Piedmont, we get to see their home situation as well as their transition back into their daily routines. We see how their time in Gravity Falls changed them and get reminded of how they were before by their classmates and parents, much like in the first special in the third season of "The Owl House" and the comments and flashbacks about Luz. The twins later learn that Bill has gotten to their father and they call Stan and Ford for help and, in the end, their father chooses family over anything the isosceles demon can offer him.
i would honestly much prefer a prequel. the way dipper’s and mabel’s story ended was satisfying and finalizing. but having a prequel just makes so much sense w everything we’ve been teased w ford and bill, etc
I do think the “anti-gravity falls season -1” was just a joke/troll on the website with the intention that you would enter season 3 first and have the website troll you with responses there could possibly be some more animated gravity falls content on the horizon but I don’t think that this was the teaser we were looking for😅
So from what I’m getting at: Inside Job was cancelled because there was a lot of shit going on at Netflix. I wouldn’t say it’s *entirely* their fault, even though it sucks that Inside Job was cancelled
It would make sense to make Antigravity falls for one season produced like a play by Bill to get the casual viewers on the same page as the hardcore fans, ending in a massive teaser for season 3.
Honestly, you are really creative with some of these ideas for the different shows on how they might continue. You should try writing down this stuff and make your own show someday, maybe after you retire from TH-cam. Most of your ideas I really like, so I would definitely watch a show by you!
When I watched the last episode of Gravity Falls. I feeled bad about the shows ending and immidiately feel better because doing a series that doesn't explain Stanley and Stanford's lives would be a war crime. The bad part is that it was like 2019 and I was about 6 years old and thought the show ended recently💀
Given the series finals or Amphibia and The Owl House being more mature I wouldn't doubt that Disney may sign on Alex Hersh to make a new season or a new show. There is more than enough fans to would watch. Financially it comes down to Disney's choice in funding animation. Dana Terrace recently joined an animation rally on 8-10-24 to fight for animation jobs to be employed by artists over AI artwork.
If anything, maybe shorts, it won’t be as exhausting as a fall on episode and still something the fans can enjoy. We can still get a lot from shorts, for example chicken nuggets is a short run show, so I think that could work
I feel like he could do 2-more gravity falls seasons where it’s about growing up and being a teenager about to transition into adulthood and like after that summer dipper and Mabel leaves to college
If Weirdmageddon was made as it's own seperate TV movie and the episodes it took up in Season 2 proper were used for a few more episodes to perfect the pace, I think gravity falls would be nearly flawless.
I always thought a sequel series had poignant stories to tell. Anyone who grew up with summer away from their regular friends and neighbors knows the potential themes- wondering who's still there, coming back to shifted social landscapes. Relationships maturing, or disappearing. Great respect for standing fast when the idea ran out, but gravity falls is staying with all these people for their whole lives, and going back as an adult still has all those same themes. All to say, I hope Hirsch will one day open up to explore this universe again.
I find it bizarre how some fans just go "lalala no sequel is happening how dare you want one HOW DARE YOU REEEE". Like there's a lot of weird, cool, sad, and dark themes you could address with older Pines twins and their aging grunkles. It wouldn't exactly be Gravity Falls, but then again the best sequels aren't just "the same, but more" they take the original idea and expand upon it with new stuff. Like LOTR
It would be nice to learn more about Shermy Pines. I know the baby in the flashback is not considered canon. In a Q&A, there was a miscommunication. It would be nice to see his timeline and more interactions from the past, especially related to Stan and Ford's relationship besides just being brothers.
Why a Gravity Falls Season -1/prequel or sequel would work so well: It would introduce the Stan Bros as children and you would get to learn and meet the characters all over again and become attached. Then the brothers would fall apart (when Stanley broke Ford's invention) it would make you feel sympathy for them. Then they go on there sperate and interesting journeys through life eventually meeting up with one another again, bringing some relief that things are becoming good... Until Ford asks Stan to run far far away with his journal, starting a fight that causes Ford to get pulled into the portal, once again splitting them up, then it is back to you feeling sympathetic for them. Then they both go on their many journeys for 30 years in different dimensions while Ford survives and discovers many new things in other dimensions (maybe fighting Bill or other creatures in the process, bringing new mysteries and stories). Stan works in despair transforming Ford's "home" into the Mystery Shack and hiring characters like Soos and Wendy, while he tries to figure out the portal and many of the mysteries in Journal 1, only to hit many roadblocks along the way. Then as Stan gives up losing nearly all hope, two people named Dipper and Mabel reignite his dedication and happiness in life that summer (leading to the events of Seasons 1 & 2) while Stan begins work on finding his brother once again working behind the scenes while leading up to Weirdmageddon. And after all of that the Stan Bros go on an epic journey to discover the deep mysteries and anomalies that lye within the Arctic Ocean, fighting together as bros on the Stan O' War 2, making up their dark pasts in order to make a better future.
bill is stuck in theraprism, and he is NEVER getting out. how in the axolotl could cipher even escaped one of the most secure places in the multiverse.
I think they should atleast do a three episode special centered around Bill, Ford and Stan just for a quick check in and to see how the effect of weirdmagedon on gravitfalls have changed the town.
I could see this being a complete backwards account from Season 1. S-1.E20 being the first episode where Ford gets launched into the Nightmare Realm. S-1.E19 is them discovering how Bill plans on enacting the very first Weirdmageddon event. S-1.E18 is the Brother's reunion. And then it tracks backwards until Episode 5 by splitting each episode between the brothers in separate locations. Episodes 1-5 show the Brothers as they first enter Gravity Falls and ending in their ultimate split up. This would round-out the series perfectly with the real introduction to Bill Cypher, Ford, and Gruncle Stan. But for now, it's a theory... Also, with Disney, they won't necessarily announce a show before it's in production. They announced Phineas and Ferb on Dan Povenmire's permission, as he was releasing that info on TikTok already. So if Alex Hirsch asks them to keep it secret until it's ready for production or release, and has that in his contract, they'll do it - especially if releasing that information publicly would cause any form of lawsuit with Netflix which could tie up production of Antigravity Falls.
Gravity falls came out while I was in college and I totally missed out!! Watched it on Disney Plus over lockdown. All you TH-camrs who made videos about it really made me love it so much more. It sounded like an incredible fan base and the cipher hunt sounded SO cool! I am SO happy and greatful for the Book of Bill and that I get to join in on the Fandom this time💖💕 I would just DIE for a show about Ford's time in the portal. There is SO much potential there.
If we're getting a season 3, it'd be cool if it was focused on Soos's kids, and Dipper and Mabel hung out with them. And it's set in 2025, so they're 12
Anti-Gravity Falls sounds like a series taking place in different stories of the past on every single character from their origin to where they end up in the series, I really hope that's the case 🤩🔺️🔍

I think that a Season 3 should still be centered on Dipper and Mabel, but still telling the same message about childhood as ever-- with Dipper and Mabel missing the previous summer and the fun they had, disappointed that they would never be able to have live in quite the same way ever again. The main point in the story and the characters' growth could be Dipper and Mabel coming to terms with that, accepting that they aren't kids anymore and trusting the future to do them well. There could even be an Amphibia-or-Owl-House-style postcredits scene after the finale in which it shows Dipper and Mabel as adults (perhaps 23-year-olds, ten years later) doing things and revealing where the future wound up taking them, revealing their new jobs and life goals. For example, they could be meeting at the Valentino family graveyard, with Robbie as the new owner (that would be funny), visiting their great uncles' graves. Perhaps they could leave flowers there, recounting their amazing adventures with now-adult Wendy and more-adult Soos. Of course, it's never too late to have one. more. epic. summer. Heck, maybe Season 3 could even be SET with Dipper and Mabel as adults, with that scene as the beginning! They could be visiting Gravity Falls together for nostalgia before running into all sorts of things from their childhood-- that baby pterodactyl as an adult, perhaps. All to show it's never too late to have one. more. epic. summer.
I think a prequel would be amazing. One where Stan is goin on crazy adventures, parties, and getting in trouble with the feds. While Ford goes on interdimensional adventures and it shows all his weird encounters and him writing the books. Also I would love to see Gravity Falls and Rick and Morty collab because its hinted in both shows that they can travel to each others worlds, As an example when Stan opens the portal, his notebook, mug, and pen crossed the portal, u can see it in one of the Rick and Morty portals. Season 8 of Rick and Morty comes out in 2025, and Alex Hirsch's Contract ends in 2026 around there. Just a possibility. Also Alex Hirsch has helped in the makings of Rick and Morty. I would love to see that collab. And maybe also a movie about Mabel and Dipper growing up.
Imagine a multiverse Gravity Falls movie called parallel Pines.
I would love a series focused on Bill Cipher, I freaking love the character
I just realized you had SPVTWTG music in the background. Also I agree with your suggested prequel series idea, Anti-Gravity Falls sounds awesome
Id honestly love to see a series meant for older viewers like F&C, but centered around Stan and Ford, like them travelling the world finding and solving new mysteries, maybe even an "Antigravity Falls" like the upside down from stranger things could come into play!
Honestly i'd like a 10-episode limited series following dipper and mabel as teenagers or young adults and cover darker and more existential themes with some eldritch horror sprinkled in.
But a stan and ford miniseries could good too.
Its just that personally if we get more animated stuff, i'd want to see it with the pines twins
A spin off series with mable and dipper as teens going through highschool and the experiences that come with it or as young adults with an element horror incorporated with be actually be ideal in my opinion.
Nearly everyone: “if we get a more gravity falls I want it to be about where everyone is today”
Me: if we get a more gravity falls I want it to be about Stan and Fords adventures in the arctic
Ngl I would LOVE a version of each episode that has multiple additional parts that shows the aftermath of the pines failing.
So the episodes play out basically the same but they are different to lead the pines to loosing
Why
@@ntinosaggelopoulos6718 because it would be interesting
Maybe they could make a season 3 and just have it be less about growing up and more about transitioning into a life when you're older.
he stated he dosen't see himself making a sequel...
@@Mayo_Nayoo this very video confirmed that he stated that almost a decade ago. People can change their minds in that kind of time.
@@Supasmartguy I do think it’s funny that Alex wrote this deep heartfelt post about why he made the series, how it’s representative of the feeling of growing up and how summer doesn’t last forever, how proud he is of a making a series that actually has a concrete ending…
And all fans can think is “Well sure this is super heartfelt, but IT’S BEEN TEN YEARS SO MAYBE he changed his mind about this whole ‘the theme of the series is childhood and how nothing lasts forever’ SENTIMENTAL CRAP and we can have MORE CONTENT FOREVER”
@@Supasmartguy mmmm....
@@cartoonishidealism582 Disney already confirmed that they're in discussions with him, and the end of season 2 very heavily hinted that they would return to Gravity Falls the next summer, and the show could simply become less about growing up and more about transitioning into a life when you're older for season 3.
What would do the series wonders is either a What if gravity falls show, or just a special every now and then, exploring adventures that flesh out the characters more, or side characters, some specials wouldn’t even feature the Pines Family.
15:55 OKAY BUT WHAT IF AT THE END OF SOME EPISODES, YOU SEE STAN AND FORD WITH DIPPER MABLE AND MAYBE SOOS AND WENDY AND THEY ARE TELLING THEM STORIES. IT WOULD GIVE THEM A CHANCE TO AGE UP CHARACTERS IF THEY WANTED TOO !!!!
Anti-Gravity Falls would be a great way of making a show that shows what Stanford Went through after “A Tale of Two Stans”.
Picture this as an opening to the first episode:
It’s a black screen with the echoed voices of Stanley and Stanfords fight but as we hear Ford shout “STANLEYYYY-“ as he’s sucked into his portal the screen flashes as we see Ford exit the portal on the other side leading right into what was written in the journal 3 book. Then we see Ford’s episodic adventures as he’s exploring, escaping and helping people from bill and his henchmainiacs.
Gravity Falls: The Other Side
Prequel series that follows Stanford after he got thrown into the multiverse by his portal.
I could imagine the intro would go so hard
I've been following since the days we were making/solving the codes and theories on this channel and while I've been off and on watching since, gravity falls content I consume is all by you
If we're getting a Season -1 with Stan and Ford, then I want Shermie Pines to be in it too. Be great to see them visit Ford at his lab and staying in touch with Stan during the first half, then dealing with Ford disappearing and Stan taking over the Mystery Shack.
man. the mabel in the thumbnail looks so sadistic that feels like bill is really controling her body.good job making that. good video too. this is hard to finde these kind of masterpiece
I feel like if Alex did do a spin-off for Gravity Falls, focusing on Stan and Ford, It would make sense if there were references or appearances from either Shermie, Mabel and Dipper's parents, or even Mabel and Dipper themselves as infants.
Main things I'd want for a Gravity Falls Season 3 is more interactions between Dipper and Pacifica, really felt a lot could've still be done with seeing how Pacifica's parents reacted after she finally stood up to them. Really felt there should've been more there.
Alex Hirsch just loves trolling people. (or is it BILL trolling us?)
Considering that Bill is something of his creation, and therefore a part of his mind, that is a genuine possibility. Because he technically is Bill, so Bill IS trolling us.
Or maybe the events of Gravity Falls actually happened to him and his sister when they visited their aunt in Oregon as kids. Just a thought. Absolutely ridiculous, but fun to think about.
Season -1 makes me think we are gonna get a prequel about bill cipher's childhood/past.
I’d love a show about the Stan bros as kids, little ford is just TOO CUTE. Maybe we could also get to see shermie pines or whatever his name was
Im hoping that if season -1 even exists then I really hope it’s either about what bill cypher did in the past or fords work while he was in the woods.
Season -1, more books, and a movie! All three! You’ve already given an idea for a prequel, but I’d add in that the Stans are sharing these stories while off sailing around the world to catch up. You know, there should totally be an episode about Stan and Eda’s weekend in Las Vegas, because we all know that Eda is Marylin. As for the movie, Dipper and Mabel’s variants seek revenge. See you next Summer. It should also have Dipper and Pacifica finally getting together: they’re the best ship in the franchise! But when it comes to the books, the sky’s the limit. There could be one about Dipper’s new Pine Tree Journal detailing his and Mabel’s teenage years. Or a book about Stan and Ford’s adventures at sea. Heck, give Pacifica a book about what happens to her Wendy and the others after the twins leave. The possibilities are endless.
But what about Bill? Well, I say they name him return as one of the primary antagonists an omega crossover between all the Fisney cartoons! An homage to Secret Wars of epic proportions. You name it, it’s in it. Just imagine Kim Possible fighting side by side with Dipper and Mabel. Or Luz with Anne. Star with Phineas and Ferb. Perry with Stitch. It goes on and on until they all come together to fight and bond in harmony. It could be an epic 1 season show.
My personal hope and theory us that Season -1 is going to be Bill's Story, showing us his early life leading up to the destruction of Euclydia. We've been getting SO much Bill lore lately! Including the names of his parents. It really feels like they're leading to a full-on Bill prequel mini-series
I bet Disney just has one guy waiting for Alex's call that he's ready to make more lmao
I think it would be cool to have a Bill centered surreal humor series or smth like that, half funny nightmare fuel, half existential crisis. I really liked how The Book Of Bill turned out and it would be so cool to get to see more of him and his narrative style in general
now thinking about it the potential for a story about stan and ford has so much potential with the old series being centered around childhood a prequal could be about adulthood and the growing pains that come with it and with it being for older audiences it's the old fan base that is going through the same problems and also theres stories that could be made after gravity falls with the stan o war and to keep the trend of being about stages in life that could be about old age and coming in terms with it which I feel like could be hard for ford
A season 3 of the original show is almost definitely never going to happen. A movie, spinoff, and something like SU Future are all EXTREMELY possible.
4:19 any other bodily fluids?
Hehe
it would be neat to have a season 3 and have it just side episodes, like things in the past or future, like showing bill before he destroyed his universe, ford while in the nightmare realm and the stan-o-war exploring the anomaly that was detected at the ending of the last episode, things like that
I'm betting its gonna be a 6 50mins special episodes like distant lands and fiona and cake, if it's a success they might make an actual season 3
Man I just finished the show for the second time I don't need that depressing thumbnail 😭
im definetley a new generation gravity falls fan (started watching in 2022) since i was a nick kid growing up, and literally only watched loud house/spongebob. however, it'd be really cool to see another gravity falls season since i wasnt really consious when the show ended (i was 5-6)
I think a sequel series of the kids going on a summer adventure with Stan and ford on the stan-o-war 2, visiting different countries and mysterious islands finding more paranormal activity would be lit
I still think that Alex is working on a Gravity Fall Spin Off show with Bill as the main character, but having a Prequel about Standford and Standly would be Wild!!! Only time will tell. Also, Animators have RIGHTS, please support them!!
6:42 huh deltarune character in a gravity falls video wasnt on my bingo card
if they could combine this idea with the Stan twins's adventures in Antarctica, like if a ton of the series was them telling stories of what they've been through + Ford in the Nightmare realm and the much creepier cryptids Stanley encountered in his years at the town, I WOULD BE SO SO HAPPY!
What I want is a remaster. Every single adventure in the books, shorts, everything, animated as a full length episode. From their parents telling them they're going to Gravity Falls, to them coming back home. And give Wendy and Ford WAAAY more screen time. It is criminal that they did not use them enough. They don't even talk to each other. Not once.
0:07 I'm surprised there wasn't variants similar to "Gravity Rises" ( The AU where Mabel has Dipper's personality & Dipper has Mabel's personality).
0:30 this kinda reminded me of an old weird theory that Bill Cipher was sent back to season 1 after his death, so basically making season 3 season 1
What if, -1 series, antigravity falls, is set in the winter time? Like back when Stan and Ford re-meet up? Basically telling more of the stan-bro's backstory.
Your idea for season -1 is amazing and I'd love to actually see it happen!!
ALL IN FAVOR!
An idea that I've always liked is since Season 1/2 focused on themes surrounding childhood and the finite nature of it, what if season 3 is following Dipper and Mabel returning to Gravity Falls as adults and them facing the struggles that young adults face?
Honestly, for a sequel, I'd love a show that focused on Stan and Ford. As a sequel, a technical season 3, we could get everything you talked about and more. We could see them go on their adventures as old men and, because they're older, they're going to reminisce on their adventures as kids and even sit down and talk about everything they went through while they were apart. They might even video chat with Dipper and Mabel, telling them some of the stories, especially as they're preparing to leave middle school and transition to high school after the next summer. We'd get to hear more about their experiences in high school, including more information about Stan's relationship with Carla.
However, there's an idea for a movie that Chestnut Tanuki came up with based on a theory she has about the book of Bill's canon audience. It's not us and it's none of the characters we've seen, but they're closer to the characters than you'd think. She believes that the reader of "The Book of Bill" is none other than the twins' father and that this could be set up for a possible continuation. I agreed with the idea and how it could have us pick up where we left off. Dipper and Mabel arrive back in Piedmont, we get to see their home situation as well as their transition back into their daily routines. We see how their time in Gravity Falls changed them and get reminded of how they were before by their classmates and parents, much like in the first special in the third season of "The Owl House" and the comments and flashbacks about Luz. The twins later learn that Bill has gotten to their father and they call Stan and Ford for help and, in the end, their father chooses family over anything the isosceles demon can offer him.
i would honestly much prefer a prequel. the way dipper’s and mabel’s story ended was satisfying and finalizing. but having a prequel just makes so much sense w everything we’ve been teased w ford and bill, etc
I'd love a series of ford- the dramatic irony of his interactions with bill before the end
Have Stanly stories as B plots
I do think the “anti-gravity falls season -1” was just a joke/troll on the website with the intention that you would enter season 3 first and have the website troll you with responses there could possibly be some more animated gravity falls content on the horizon but I don’t think that this was the teaser we were looking for😅
So from what I’m getting at:
Inside Job was cancelled because there was a lot of shit going on at Netflix. I wouldn’t say it’s *entirely* their fault, even though it sucks that Inside Job was cancelled
Sounds like he needs some help from a certain talking triangle
It would make sense to make Antigravity falls for one season produced like a play by Bill to get the casual viewers on the same page as the hardcore fans, ending in a massive teaser for season 3.
Honestly, you are really creative with some of these ideas for the different shows on how they might continue. You should try writing down this stuff and make your own show someday, maybe after you retire from TH-cam. Most of your ideas I really like, so I would definitely watch a show by you!
That fact that Alex hasn’t come out and said “nah guys we are just having fun and making art” to shut down the movie/season rumours speaks volumes
When I watched the last episode of Gravity Falls. I feeled bad about the shows ending and immidiately feel better because doing a series that doesn't explain Stanley and Stanford's lives would be a war crime. The bad part is that it was like 2019 and I was about 6 years old and thought the show ended recently💀
We don't need a S3 of Gravity Falls because it already ended on a perfect note
Maybe, but Bill Cipher sure doesn't seem to think so xD
I know, but I really miss it man it's really good
Nah we need a season 3
Yeah, we don't need a Season 3.
A prequel or spin-off though...
THANK YOU!!!
Given the series finals or Amphibia and The Owl House being more mature I wouldn't doubt that Disney may sign on Alex Hersh to make a new season or a new show. There is more than enough fans to would watch. Financially it comes down to Disney's choice in funding animation. Dana Terrace recently joined an animation rally on 8-10-24 to fight for animation jobs to be employed by artists over AI artwork.
Can’t wait for more content from this channel TheRoundtable!
If anything, maybe shorts, it won’t be as exhausting as a fall on episode and still something the fans can enjoy. We can still get a lot from shorts, for example chicken nuggets is a short run show, so I think that could work
I feel like he could do 2-more gravity falls seasons where it’s about growing up and being a teenager about to transition into adulthood and like after that summer dipper and Mabel leaves to college
4:57 funfact Bojacks creator is working around a new show.
If Weirdmageddon was made as it's own seperate TV movie and the episodes it took up in Season 2 proper were used for a few more episodes to perfect the pace, I think gravity falls would be nearly flawless.
I would definitely love to see a sequel series where we go through Bill’s life in the Theraprism, and his growing insanity and guilt.
Bro fords stance at 10:05 😭 I can’t bro…
I remember being a little little kid and getting home from school and turning on gravity falls and i was heart broken when it ended
1:04 as some who watched film theory about it and decided it looked cool, i now find myself reading through the book of bill on my 13th birthday

Season 3 gang ======>

I always thought a sequel series had poignant stories to tell. Anyone who grew up with summer away from their regular friends and neighbors knows the potential themes- wondering who's still there, coming back to shifted social landscapes. Relationships maturing, or disappearing. Great respect for standing fast when the idea ran out, but gravity falls is staying with all these people for their whole lives, and going back as an adult still has all those same themes. All to say, I hope Hirsch will one day open up to explore this universe again.
I find it bizarre how some fans just go "lalala no sequel is happening how dare you want one HOW DARE YOU REEEE". Like there's a lot of weird, cool, sad, and dark themes you could address with older Pines twins and their aging grunkles. It wouldn't exactly be Gravity Falls, but then again the best sequels aren't just "the same, but more" they take the original idea and expand upon it with new stuff. Like LOTR
@timsaylor4390 until cannon resolves the issue, I see gravity falls as the children's prequel to the x-files.
It would be nice to learn more about Shermy Pines. I know the baby in the flashback is not considered canon. In a Q&A, there was a miscommunication. It would be nice to see his timeline and more interactions from the past, especially related to Stan and Ford's relationship besides just being brothers.
Why a Gravity Falls Season -1/prequel or sequel would work so well: It would introduce the Stan Bros as children and you would get to learn and meet the characters all over again and become attached. Then the brothers would fall apart (when Stanley broke Ford's invention) it would make you feel sympathy for them. Then they go on there sperate and interesting journeys through life eventually meeting up with one another again, bringing some relief that things are becoming good... Until Ford asks Stan to run far far away with his journal, starting a fight that causes Ford to get pulled into the portal, once again splitting them up, then it is back to you feeling sympathetic for them. Then they both go on their many journeys for 30 years in different dimensions while Ford survives and discovers many new things in other dimensions (maybe fighting Bill or other creatures in the process, bringing new mysteries and stories). Stan works in despair transforming Ford's "home" into the Mystery Shack and hiring characters like Soos and Wendy, while he tries to figure out the portal and many of the mysteries in Journal 1, only to hit many roadblocks along the way. Then as Stan gives up losing nearly all hope, two people named Dipper and Mabel reignite his dedication and happiness in life that summer (leading to the events of Seasons 1 & 2) while Stan begins work on finding his brother once again working behind the scenes while leading up to Weirdmageddon. And after all of that the Stan Bros go on an epic journey to discover the deep mysteries and anomalies that lye within the Arctic Ocean, fighting together as bros on the Stan O' War 2, making up their dark pasts in order to make a better future.
bill is stuck in theraprism, and he is NEVER getting out. how in the axolotl could cipher even escaped one of the most secure places in the multiverse.
@@slimgrim3607 He wouldn’t escape. It would take place before Weirdmageddon.
I think they should atleast do a three episode special centered around Bill, Ford and Stan just for a quick check in and to see how the effect of weirdmagedon on gravitfalls have changed the town.
I could see this being a complete backwards account from Season 1. S-1.E20 being the first episode where Ford gets launched into the Nightmare Realm. S-1.E19 is them discovering how Bill plans on enacting the very first Weirdmageddon event. S-1.E18 is the Brother's reunion. And then it tracks backwards until Episode 5 by splitting each episode between the brothers in separate locations. Episodes 1-5 show the Brothers as they first enter Gravity Falls and ending in their ultimate split up.
This would round-out the series perfectly with the real introduction to Bill Cypher, Ford, and Gruncle Stan. But for now, it's a theory...
Also, with Disney, they won't necessarily announce a show before it's in production. They announced Phineas and Ferb on Dan Povenmire's permission, as he was releasing that info on TikTok already. So if Alex Hirsch asks them to keep it secret until it's ready for production or release, and has that in his contract, they'll do it - especially if releasing that information publicly would cause any form of lawsuit with Netflix which could tie up production of Antigravity Falls.
We can also see how Stan met eda
Gravity falls came out while I was in college and I totally missed out!! Watched it on Disney Plus over lockdown. All you TH-camrs who made videos about it really made me love it so much more. It sounded like an incredible fan base and the cipher hunt sounded SO cool! I am SO happy and greatful for the Book of Bill and that I get to join in on the Fandom this time💖💕
I would just DIE for a show about Ford's time in the portal. There is SO much potential there.
A prequel About Bills past and childhood would be fun
If we're getting a season 3, it'd be cool if it was focused on Soos's kids, and Dipper and Mabel hung out with them. And it's set in 2025, so they're 12
Anti-Gravity Falls sounds like a series taking place in different stories of the past on every single character from their origin to where they end up in the series, I really hope that's the case 🤩🔺️🔍
Bro if he isn’t making a season 3, he would have been trolling us for years.
