Watch Gravity Falls · 1:16am Nov 20th, 2012
This blog post is going to have a substantial lack of ponies, but I can do what I want so you'll just have to deal with it for now. Sorry about that.
Anyway, I've recently (not that recently) stumbled upon a show known as Gravity Falls. If you haven't seen it yet, I'd advise watching it. Why?
Well, I'll tell you why. It's a cartoon that's "designed for kids" just like MLP is, but easily appeals to an older audience. Therefore, if you like MLP, it should logically follow that you like this show, too. It also includes amazing animation, superb voice work, great writing, and lovable characters. All these characteristics sound familiar? That's because they're large reasons that we, the bronies, watch MLP. So, once again, if you like MLP you'll probably like Gravity Falls. Logically, I mean.
One more quick on the writing of the show. The comedy is pretty much right up my alley. It's a sort of humor that hits me very close to home, and if you've read my fics you know my sense of humor, and the show has moments where for the first time in a long time I'd burst into laughter. It's a rare occasion when that happens. I've never felt as though a show so precisely exemplifies my type of humor.
Also, the show is pretty epic. And the theme song has been stuck in my head for weeks. And the people who write the show are just as super-cool as the cast of MLP. The show consistently has secret, cryptic messages both hidden in the episodes and blatantly shown but encrypted. Also, there is a sense of mystery floating around the show as a whole at almost all times and seems to be building up a pretty hefty plot arc that will keep you interested long after you've finishes all the available episodes.
So, yeah, this is a little PSA to go watch the show. You may be yelling at your screen, "But TheOnly, why are you telling us to go watch it on a site about ponies?"
Well, I think the show is great and enjoyable and I wish to share my enjoyment with all of my wonderful followers (you guys). You don't have to, but you should definitely go ahead and give it a try and then report back here when you are miserable and wishing that the new episode would come out already so we can mope in sadness together.
Also, as far as my writing goes, new fics ARE on the way, and I will be putting out some new ones in the days to come. Hopefully you all haven't assumed that I died in a fire somewhere. I've got big plans for the coming week. Big plans indeed.
Shout out to Chromosome who sadly left us. It was a sad day indeed. He shall never be forgotten.
Also let it be known that I am planning to release my parody of White Box very soon, good job to those of you who somehow guessed it beforehand. I'm watching you.
Until next time

Gravity Falls is the shit.
519446 I almost missed the "the" in your sentence and was about to berate you for such slander but then I saw the "the" and nodded my head in approval.
i love gravity falls
i dont think its near mlp
but its the best thing(only good thing) ive seen come from disneychannel in a long time
What channel is this show on in case I ever decide to track it down?
519453 Seriously, when the adult shows started going to shit, (no "the" this time), I had to switch to the chillen's stuff.
Also, sorry about Chromosome. I know he was the only one you ever followed.
I've watched small segments, and I do say, it's a lot better than the other bullshit that's on that channel. I, also, love the theme song. I have an extended version of it that I've listened to 126 times. (But I've listened to Daddy Discord 272 times )
I watched Gravity Falls BEFORE TheOnly told me to.
Chromosome was a good writer. I didn't actually like his stories, but respect.
too bad he's gone. I feel that in time he may have written something I would be willing to fave.
I haven't had the time to watch a lot of the episodes, but my brother tells me I would like it.
i have loved Gravity Falls since the premiere.
and i find that "these are some freaky people" goes well with the tune of the theme song.

This show isn't bad

I remember my little sister bombarding me to watch Gravity Falls sometime ago and told me its a great show, seeing that it can from the Disney animation studios I was really hesitant about watching the darn thing. But I got over it and I have to say, its a really good show from Disney side of things (better then those other programs that they have in their channel.) its good to see more cartoons are raising up that can not only draw in children, but adults as well. Maybe we can get to see new generation of cartoons that everyone can watch as how the 90`s has managed to succeeded (like how Batman TAS has accomplished).
Agreed!!!
519446 ... You'd think that someone promoting something would link it, though.

Been there, done that.
I already watch it.
519680 It is VERY hard to find uploaded episodes that stay up for very long.
519453 Yeah, it's a pretty tight show I can enjoy on a Friday--NO! EVERY night! I've seen Mabel snuggling Pinkie Pie. Perfection.

Gruncle Stan is incredible, best line in the show for me was as follows... I think I'll get this right: "I could steal all of this stuff in no time!"
"What was that?"
"I said I'm gonna rob ya."
And the quick transition
