Gravity Falls

Let's talk about my all time favorite show! Don't get turned off by the fact that it's made by Disney Channel - Gravity Falls is seriously one of the most hilarious, witty, and thought-provoking shows I've ever watched.

I swear they came so close to cancelling this show so many times. The air date for the first episode of Season One was June 15th, 2012, and the date of the final episode of Season Two was February 16th, 2016. Four years to create two seasons? Every fan was definitely nervous. Also there's the fact that the show was transferred over from the REAL Disney Channel to Disney XD, which is basically the channel where all the reject Disney Channel shows go to sulk in embarrassment.

If you're into mystery, humor, conspiracies, and dark twists, you're going to LOVE this show. The basic story is about 12-year-old twins, Dipper and Mabel Pines, who spend the summer with their strange great-uncle Grunkle Stan in the mysterious town of Gravity Falls, Oregon. The longer they stay there, the more secrets begin to unfold about the weird happenings and inhabitants of this town. They experience many run ins with the supernatural, including their main nemesis Bill Cipher (who represents the Illuminati character). 

The funny thing about this show is, I really wouldn't consider it a kids show. A lot of the images would probably be something that would give me nightmares as a kid. But for adults, seriously, WATCH IT - you'll love it.
