If you look at the schedule of a cartoon on Cartoon Network they have new episodes almost year-round with breaks between seasons being just a month or two. Part of it is that cartoons on other networks tend to be 11 minutes long and self-contained so they can dole them out quicker while Gravity Falls uses a full 23-minute episode, part of it is Cartoon Network caters to an older audience and has more resources while Disney skews younger so they time their releases around school and holidays and they had to take breaks to actually finish the episodes. I'm assuming that now that they know how successful the show is and they've had a year between seasons they've ironed out their production and we won't have any four-month hiatuses.

Gravity Falls is definitely an outlier on the Disney Channel right now; most of their original programming are tween sitcoms that they can churn out quickly and cheaply and all the other cartoons they made when they tried to break back into TV animation in 2012 have been cancelled. It's like back in the day when you had Invader Zim showing between Spongebob Squarepants and Rocket Power, only Disney recognizes that they have a hit on their hands.

Maybe Disney just needs someone to fix it. Do we know anyone who can fix it?

(Yeah, finally saw these shorts this morning)

I wonder if merchandising for this show got lost in the shuffle because of the massive merchandising hit that is Frozen.

Maybe this will help change the topic, as two of my favorite shows meet up...

So, how about that Pines family, and their mysteries? What do you think about them?

I refuse to answer this question.

Am I wrong in thinking that Bill sounds a lot like the robot Claptrap from the video game Borderlands?

Gaze upon hiatus! Gaze upon hiatus!

Disney needs room for more Jessie episodes I guess…

(seriously, my stepdaughter has been binge watching that entire series from the beginning. Someone help me)

I am terribly sorry for agreeing with Toxxupation on evenbthe most superficial of things, but does anyone get the impression that Mabel really is kind of a jerk? She seems to mostly worry about herself and her objectives (boys!) and Dipper ends up helping her out way more often than the other way around.
I don't even remember when was the last time that she helped Dipper in somr way.

She's a pre-teen/teenage girl. She's not a jerk, she's a kid.

Look, why don’t we all agree that everyone’s theories have merit, and if people still feel passionate that they’re right and everyone else is wrong…well, there’s only one way to settle the argument, isn’t there?
