So with SU coming back, what would you want from a Gravity Falls revival? Personally I could see Hirsch trying to finally give Wendy a story in some kind of special

>>148984495 (OP)
Did you actually watch the series?

>>148984502
Yeah? Hirsch has stated that he regrets not giving Wendy an episode all to herself so you could just do a Wendy solo special, you wouldn't even need the kids back if you don't want to ruin the ending of the original show (or just have it take place during the summer)

I'd be down to hear Linda Cardellini again, but I don't trust Hirsch to write anything good.

>>148984495 (OP)
This overrated show is never coming back

>>148984985
Nah, I think its the opposite. I think Hirsch is a really funny writer with some emotional aspect so I believe he could carry a 40 minute character-driven special. He's really bad when it actually comes to planning a story but you don't have that issue with a one time special

It's hilarious how there are people in 2025 who still believe this show has a chance of coming back someday

>>148985208
>he’s really bad when it comes to planning out a story
I don’t think ford and Wendy not getting a lot of time to shine somehow erases how much of a cohesive, masterfully done episode “not what he seems” and “a tale of two Stans” are

I can already hear the le contrarian green texts lol

>>148985545
No, I agree that those episodes are good and that Alex is a good writer but if you listen to the audio commentary as much as I have, you'll start to realise that the fact that the story of GF works as well as it did is a lucky coincidence. The guy had NO idea what he was doing, even during season 2

>>148985208
He's really bad at writing female characters, and I don't think he learned anything or ever will.

>>148984525
He had every chance to give her an episode, so he’s just retarded.

>>148984495 (OP)
Are lumberjack gfs worth it?

>>148987797
There's no such thing as a lumberjack girl in real life. You just don't see women on blue collar worksites.

Yes, women like doing things like wearing flannel and bright orange vests to look cute. But they run in fear the second they have to turn on a chainsaw or circular saw.

>>148985422
With the way companies are creatively bankrupt and risk terrified nowadays, never say never

>>148988599
This

>>148988379
I work in a traditionally male career (railroad). We have a decent number of women. They're almost all lesbians though.

>>148987797
Even if they existed, you wouldn't be able to find one

>>148984495 (OP)
The 2nd season really needed to be a few episodes longer, and instead all we're left with are missed opportunities and regrets because a full fledged revival doesn't sound appealing imo
Best shot we've got are specials or more comics, and they could either pretend there were more adventures during that summer like in Lost Legends or the twins could come back briefly for some holiday, but otherwise trying to place more adventures in-universe timeline-wise is a big problem

>>148990811
So what would you like to see if it did come back?

>>148990811
I think a revival could work, so long as it's not just gravity falls itself again. Either a spin off or a sequel set elsewhere, delving more into the supernatural aspects of the world

>>148985109
Idk man, cartoon studios are notorious reboot prone and I don't think Alex has the Bill Watterson fortitude to keep that idea from happening

>>148990868
More Wendy development, more Pacifica development, those two could form an odd pairing that actually works the more you think about it.
But neither of these warrant a renewal of the show, they were sorely missed opportunities that fit best in season 2.
Bringing back some villain or introducing a new one just invites comparison to Bill, and it doesn't sound exciting without some completely new unique stakes at hand.
>>148991014
Feels like a revival that isn't even set in Gravity Falls or a spinoff featuring other characters completely misses the mark on what made the original series special. At a certain point, it stopped being about the mysteries and more about the cast, their dynamics, and how the town shaped them, with the town itself being its own character that drove the spirit of the show.
A large time skip beyond a year doesn't even sound appealing because now you're missing out on the twins growing through such crucial years without the town to influence them.
That's why more comics feel like the next best bet. It would allow the characters to be explored more in a slice-of-life style without the pressure of having some overarching villain or major impending event.

>>148984495 (OP)
He wants to make a spin off with the Stan twins but Disney only likes shows with child protaganists.

I just want Alex to make a new show. Guy has potential but everything he makes lands in development hell

>>148984495 (OP)
Wendy is so cool.

>>148991276
I don't think he actually pitched that to disney due to his contract with netflix

>>148991629
She was literally created by combining all cool traits the creators could picture into one character

>>148991137
>It would allow the characters to be explored more in a slice-of-life style without the pressure of having some overarching villain or major impending event.
I feel like despite being arguably the main protagonist of the show, Dipper doesn't have that much of a personality

>>148991878
He doesn't have very good social skills, but when it comes to actual situations that matter, he's got plenty of backbone, and I think that definitely sets him apart from other underdog protagonists

>>148991939
>He doesn't have very good social skills
I thought his was OK; not great, but not terrible either

>>148991276
Spin off with the young Stan twins?

>>148992251
Who actually wants that, though

>>148991878
He's not as smart as he tries to portray himself to be, and it seems Hirsch thinks Dipper and Mabel have equal intelligence

>>148992289
I don't see him being as genius as Ford, but he has above average intelligence
I can see him and Mabel being equally perceptive, they just naturally act differently

>>148984495 (OP)
Throw Wendy into Shapeshifter's freezer and replace her entirely with a monstergirl instead.
Wendy is utterly boring character with no personality and everything about her was just a waste of time. Being 'cool' is not a personality.

>>148992368

>>148992368
If anything then maybe an horror episode were Wendy has become into a scary werewolf would fit, you know, due to her been a lumberjack and lumberjack are usually associated with werewolves for the most part.

>>148992308
True

>>148992368
>The "freak lumberjack genes" actually came from manotaurs being somewhere in the Corduroy family tree
>It suddenly manifests in Wendy by turning her into a cowgirl

>>148993071
Like a big hairy minotaur or just her in cow print

>>148993124
Anywhere on the gradient of "Monster Musume" level to full furry. Either way has an udder.

An episode where a meme of pacificas design notably bigdad is very interesting.

>>148993124
Who rocks that outfit best?

>>148993357
Bipper

>>148984495 (OP)
>what would you want from a Gravity Falls revival?
A completely different setting in the same universe that references GF as a crazy place where wackadootie shit happens.

I also don't want anyone involved in writing the episode "Roadside Attraction" to be involved in the new series, Alex included.

>>148993413
Roadside Attraction isn't a bad episode, it's timing was just really bad. Also Josh Weinstein, Jeff Rowe and Alex are good writers who have written great episodes

>>148993391
Wow

>>148993124
>Soos

>>148993474
Roadside Attraction is a horrible episode, especially double when greasy sleazeball Stan ended up being a fan favorite sexyman for horny women anyways despite that episode having a moral of "don't act like Stan"

>>148992251
I thought he meant with the Stan twins post-GF

>>148993718
Agreed

>>148984495 (OP)
I'd prefer NOT having a revival

Wendy discovers craving for little boys.

>>148995278
No. Die.

>>148993357
Dipper

>>148995278
She's only into strong lumberjacks to make sure her lumberjack genes don't get polluted by city boys

>>148992405
This drawing is almost serviceable, but the way her mouth is placed and head is shaped make it look like a big dumb potato or something.

>>148995264
I'd have preferred a proper 3rd season like what was supposed to happen.

>>148997749
>like what was supposed to happen.
Alex never planned a third season

>>148984495 (OP)
>Gravitiba da cachoeira - SP

>>148995264
I mean, we're getting new content in book form semi-regularly, why not the same just animated?

>>148984495 (OP)

>>148993391
What's the appeal?

>>148984495 (OP)
If only she playfully mooned me

>>148999156
What else is there to do? Lost Legends II?

>>149001221
More characters in their underwear like Dipper, Mabel, Wendy etc.

>>149001333
Nah

>>149001750
Did Mabel "cure" Pacifica of her mean spoiled rich girl tendencies?

>>148984525
Wendy is not interesting enough to merit an entire episode she exists as a supporting role at best.

>>148999156
Because animated projects are a much bigger investment compared to comics, and shorter form stories are much more suited for the latter
