    So I know the show ended already and all but I just finished the series after binge watching it like for 2 days until 3 am both nights almost. I love this show. I love how much character development and suspense and beautiful scenery it has. I love how they treat it like a serious show and not just a kids show on Disney. So I got a couple questions for you guys.
    What's your favorite episode?

    Who's your favorite character?

    Who do you think has had the most character development throughout the series?

    Were you content with the ending?

    My favorite episode is actually the ending episode, surprisingly enough even though I want this show to never end. My favorite characters are a tie between Bill Cipher and Mabel. I honestly think Dipper and Mabel have had the most character development because they came to Gravity Falls at first confused and scared and whatnot but after they learned about the journals and Bill and how serious the whole situation was, they grew into more mature and grown "adults", if that makes sense. They seemed a lot more mature after the whole

    (sorry i don't know if everyone has finished it or not). I was content with the ending actually, to be honest. It at least had somewhat of a happy ending and although I wanted to see what happened next summer, I knew the show had to draw to a close some time sadly. I am glad it ended on a happy note and that

    Overall for anyone who has not watched this show, please watch it. It might seem boring to some of you at first, but it's definitely worth a watch. Tenouttaten yo. For real. I laughed and cried with these characters because of how heart felt this show was.
     
    Gravity Falls was an amazing cartoon, in my opinion.

    I give Disney credit for respecting the wellbeing of it's creator and his wishes just enough to let him end the show while it is still fresh.

    Favourite episode?
    Not What He Seems was a thrilling experience that really added a lot of tension to the mystery, leading up to quite a dramatic reveal. This was one of those episodes where I relate to Grunkle Stan.

    Favourite character?
    A tie between Grunkle Stan and Pacifica.

    Stan, because he is essentially a great result of putting Mr. Krabs and Scrooge McDuck together into a blender, with some great writers to back it up. He was also an awesome father figure to Dipper and Mabel, while not hesitating to get into some hilarious shenanigans with them.

    Pacifica's another favourite of mine, because she had an amazing redemption, by GF villain standards. While I am disappointed that her redemption didn't get enough time to shine, I was given subtle hints that it had went somewhere. Northwest Mansion Mystery is what ultimately got me engaged into this show in the first place.

    Most character development?

    Dipper Pines.

    He had some noticeable social anxiety at the start, but over time, he was able to make many new friends. I applaud his ability to forgive Pacifica and even encouraging her to do the right thing in NMM.

    Plus, he was willing to sacrifice everything to ensure the happiness of his sister Mabel, which shows how much he actually cares for her.

    Am I content with the ending?
    Yes. It is not often that you see an ending for a cartoon that really hits at home with most of the audience.

    Overall, I give this show a 10/10 for being a great experience from start to finish. I look forward to seeing any new books or merch in the coming months or years.
