As good as long-form episodic science-fiction storytelling gets.
Rather like a junior version of Rick and Morty, the show hilariously explores
high concept fantasy in twenty-minute, bite-sized portions all told with a
distinct, manic glee and an unquenchable optimism. The show is even produced by
Alex Hirsh, a close friend of R&M co-creator Justin Roiland. Gravity Falls
has an edge in that it links its adventures into a complex overarching plot,
the series ended at the creators’ behest despite the studio’s requests for more
episodes. It also stands as a very touching testament to the value of close
brother-sister bonds with the main characters being inspired by Hirsh and his
relationship with his own twin sister.
