This show looks like the kind of show I would love. The clips look great. Is this show on any video subscription service? I really want to watch it.

I know you can get it on the Xbox/Zune Marketplace. I got a season pass for ~$50, or whatever the equivalent is in Microsoft SpaceDollars. A little steep, but 100% worth it. You get new episodes pretty much as soon as they air.

So I watched this for the first time. Pretty funny. Some themes aren't my favorite but the episode I saw was surprisingly original considering the base plot. I'll probably catch it again to see if it keeps up.

Oh, which episode did you watch?
 
Whenever I see this thread I wish there was a way to watch this on demand through my cable subscription.
 
My son (3) is way into this show. He watches the same 6 episodes we have on the DVR over and over again. Can't say I blame him this show is great. Really funny stuff.
 
Oh my god, the new ep. is the BEST
video-game parody type episode EVER. The references were very well done
 
Fun episode.

Well done references, especially the car bit. Liked the way the fighter was summoned. Neat they got Paul Robertson to do the pixel art, he seems like a perfect fit. Stan's part when he interrupts Dipper/Robbie's fight is perfect.

A bit odd how open they were in this episode to the super natural being out in public and people being indifferent about it. Lake monsters and ghosts are one thing, but pixel dude seems like it should give people more pause.

Not a huge fan of Robbie and Dipper's resolve if only because it seems like an out for the writers to be able to not have to continually address their feud, though it's nice they put Dipper's intentions out in the open between the two. I'm not a total prude, but I did cringe up a bit when fighter dude was beating on Dipper.

They also seem to really be hammering in Robbie's super natural element by now. Unless there's another allusion in there, they may as well called the band Robbie Z.

Oh god I hope Mabel's sweater is a 4chan reference.

list of least to most favorite so far

Dipper vs. Manliness
Fight Fighters
Irrational Treasure
Headhunters
The Legend of the Gobble Wonker
Tourist Trapped
The Time Traveler's Pig
The Inconveniencing
Double Dipper
 
I absolutely loved this episode and my most favourite moment is the
car bit
. All in all, one of my favourite episodes. I don't like Robbie much as he seems to be that type of character alongside Pacifica where they are just obstacles for the Twins and nothing more. Still, Robbie has some restraint and isn't a total jerk character unlike Pacifica, who is just outright an obstacle.

Still, my most favourite episode is a tie between The Inconveniencing, Time Traveler Pig and Double Dipper.
 
Woops, I thought this thread was kinda dead so I didn't check it at all.

He watched Double Dipper. I badgered him into doing it.


By the way, hello thread!

Nah, I had heard good things and it's always great to give something else a try! DD was a really fun episode. I can't say the same about the other one I watched. It was about them fishing and going to the island to search for the creature. It didn't really do anything original and felt pretty cliched for the 'get photo proof but everything goes wrong' type of episode. It was pretty funny here or there, but didn't have that magic. Anyone want to rank that one for me? Is it supposed to be good?

I plan on catching the time travel pig episode tonight.

Legend of the Gobble Wonker's alright, in my opinion, but it's not one of the better ones. Time Traveler's Pig and Double Dipper are some of my favorites.
 
Where the GIFs of the new ep. at?
I want a GIF of
Dr. Karate doing the finger psycho crusher
 
Ha, you were right. Good episode. Many laughs, I like time travel, and there were shoutouts (That I didn't get 90% of) to other episodes which is nice.
 
Finally caught it. One of the better episodes in my opinion.

"This street has really dangerous litter" was such a funny line.

The more video game literate you are the funnier it is too.
Streets of Rage, Donkey Kong, Mario Bros., Pac-man, Frogger, Street Fighter (You must take me to the Soviet Union!) were all the references I caught.

Favorite moment? Probably the gang playing Texas Hold 'em and Mabel not having a clue what is going on.

Which episode was the most fun for you to make and why? We recently did an episode featuring an old-school arcade game character who enters Gravity Falls. It was awesomely animated by pixel animation genius Paul Robertson, who was lots of fun to collaborate with. Fans of Street Fighter and seeing Dipper get roundhouse kicked in the face will not be disappointed!
