I remember when I first saw gravity falls, the art and everything drove me away because I thought it was one of those immature and childish kids shows. One day I got so bored that I forced myself to watch a random episode and boy o boy this got addictive. So addictive I watched it all over and anticipated for every episode release.
The music is so terrific and the humor is one of a kind. Gravity falls sets the story straight in such a way that adults are able to identify with it, however, the show is not so complicated for kids to understand. The side characters are funny as well and looking at the fast pacing of the story, the series really takes itself seriously; creating plot twists, cliffhangers and builds so much anticipation. I remember when the season 1 was ending, I kept thinking for days about a cliffhanger in the penultimate episodes. The second season was even better as comedy was blended into a show that turned darker and darker every episode. An arc was created for one of animation's greatest villains in recent years. The characters from the twins to their uncles have so much depth you barely see in a cartoon. I can only remember Avatar, Samurai Jack, Batman and a few who have such well written characters. Gravity falls is totally worth the 8.9 and if you are reading this, bewildered how a kids show managed to get so many good reviews, there's always the chance to find out for yourself.
