This was the episode that made the grand design of "Gravity Falls" crystal clear. 'The Time Traveler's Pig' (Season 1, Episode 9)

But below the glitter was something truly bleak and it masterfully set the stage for the final hour of one of the greatest animated series of all time.ġ. This episode felt like a subversion of the "second part of a trilogy is the darkest" trope, by making it so blindingly bright and sunny. In a weird way, the rainbow-colored utopia is darker than anything going on outside of the bubble, since it's born of Mabel's psychological unrest.Įventually, the episode turns into a kind of cartoon courtroom drama, with Dipper pleading with her to return to the world (it should be noted that the courtroom is presided over by a giant kitty cat voiced by Jon Stewart), complete with some truly heart-tugging flashbacks.

As it turns out, Mabel has created her prison, full of all the things that she loves (like those pair of '80s dreamboats) and where everyone is under her command. Dipper and Wendy have penetrated the bubble that houses Mabel and what they find is a Lisa Frank notebook sprung to life. This is an episode that I watched again and again just to soak in all of the visual details housed within. 'Weirdmageddon 2: Escape From Reality' (Season 2, Episode 19) Thankfully, there were two more parts of the saga before we had to say goodbye.ġ2. There's so much to love about this episode that it's hard to whittle it down. The creativity unleashed by the show becoming totally unmoored was truly astonishing to see, from the retrofitted title sequence to the menagerie of creatures including (but not limited to) a monster that is a giant head with an arm growing out of it that has the voice of Hirsch. (Hirsch is just the kind of fearless creator who you could imagine actually doing something like that.) This was a true apocalypse, and for much of the running time, you get the sensation that none of your favorite characters would escape from this alive. It wasn't clear just how serious this whole "end of the world" threat was going to be until the first part of the season (and series) finale, which saw Bill Cipher escaping from his prison and unleashing phantasmagorical nightmares on our favorite Pacific Northwestern town. 'Weirdmageddon Part 1' (Season 2, Episode 18) But the main takeaway from the episode is that Dipper decides to stay with Ford and explore the unexplored, which means that he and Mabel wouldn't be living together, a decision that ultimately almost triggers the end of the world. There's lots of cool stuff in this episode, although it's kind of a bummer that there aren't any aliens on the craft (instead, Dipper is chased by robotic sentinels). Ford posits an incredible question that never gets fully answered: did an ancient alien spacecraft crash in the valley surrounding the town because of the area's inherent weirdness, or was the weirdness created by events like the crashed UFO? We never fully get an explanation but gee is that a tantalizing question. This pre-Weirdmageddon triumph had Dipper and Mabel planning for their 13th birthday party/going away bash (since it would happen at the end of summer, right before they head home) and Dipper investigating the extraterrestrial origins of Gravity Falls.
