is there anything more cringe enducing than cartoon writers thinking the show is much more than a children's cartoon?

Kids don't get crazy about dating, you dumbass. She acts like a teen.

All of her comedy and humor is 100% targeted to kids.

Stop making your same shitty template thread

I thought it was about how you literally have to be a child, or at least turn your brain off as if you were a child, in order to let Mabel get off the hook for all her malevolent behavior.

I'm sure kids totally get her references to "other fluids" and Dipper's Internet history, right?

well if we judge gravity falls as an adult show, it sucks massive balls.

Unless you're a sheltered fuck, most kids at least over ten know about porn. Especially considering that is when sex ed classes start.

The same cartoon creator back-pedaling and bashing people that expect more than a kids cartoon.

It sucks either way, so what's the point?

Are a couple of innuendo jokes suppose to overshadow most of her jokes coming from waving her arms around while screaming and doing random silly things like sticking gummy worms up her nose?

That too

Ok user you know the drill

>10
>not even middle school
>sex ed class
>???

Yes?
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sex_education_in_the_United_States
>Most adolescents in the United States receive some form of sex education at school at least once between grades 6 and 12; many schools begin addressing some topics as early as grades 4 or 5.

Kids in my neighbor hood were having sex with each other as early as 12 years old.
Probably experimented with kissing and oral at age 10.
>inb4 im making this up
Hispanic neighborhood, pigskins

12-13 is more average

Her "LolRandumb" behavior Did get grating at times.

This is the wreck that she becomes when she gets older, say something nice to her

Are you sure she turned into that wreck and not this one?

the punchline is that they both have the same voice actress

Either way, it's clear that word got out about her causing the apocalypse and she had to move and change her name to avoid being lynched and all that jazz.

...

She's unironically a great character, and her mistakes are very relatable.

>and her mistakes are very relatable.

Do most kids cause the apocalypse at some point or another?

Go away MIDF.

What's MIDF stand for?

Usually when a main character annoys you, you can at least hope for a main villain to put them in their place even if for a short time. Not in GF because the villain is just as annoying and unbearable.
Really subversive shit.

Mabel Internet Defense Force, I'm guessing. But I'm not the original user it supposedly applied to.

Mabel started out as one of the best parts of the show.
She ended as one of the worst.
Don't let stagnant characters ruin your show.

the vast majority of cartoonists never grew up and can't differentiate between childish and mature content.

>Mabel started out as one of the best parts of the show.
Really? She was godawful since Ep.1

friendly reminder that Alex ripped this scene off from Grandfatherly Wind

youtube.com/watch?v=Dh9v_7zr9e8&t=325s

I enjoyed her antics up to a point, and with the show's heavy use of story I thought she'd get a "growing up" character arc. But when it became clear she could do no wrong and was never going to grow as a character, her antics became truly annoying.

>gravity falls threads now just discuss pinecest, padippica, mabel-hate, wendy, or pacifica
Pacifica and Pinecest threads being the more common ones.

Despite being the best character in the show we never get Stan threads and I'm very disappointed.

If we are going the derail the thread might as well derail it right

I can understand cartoon writers not wanting to dumb things down or get lazy just because their show is aimed at kids.

>I thought she'd get a "growing up" character arc
Oh no, this series has a fetish about childhood. Dipper tries to grow up and is portrayed as a fool every time.

...

There's nothing to discuss about Stan; he's great. It's the one thing everyone can agree on.
But the show ends with them going home to grow up together, which was kind of weird because Dipper was already willing to grow up. He just wanted to do it in Gravity Falls.

Apparently, that was a bad thing though.

>Apparently, that was a bad thing though.
Because it's not what Mabel wanted.

there sure went a lot of work in that drawing considering it's just a fucking blowjob

So is it confirmed that Alex is incestuous for Alexa due to Gravity Falls parallels ?

Probably not, but it would be hilarious if people could be memed into believing so.

You are not a content creator are you? Or any kind of writter and artist? Anyone who works on the industry knows how things go, and are there to begin with because they like this form of entertainment.

What he said is exactly the same thing that Walt Disney said.

This is a really dumb argument

Yeah but Walt Disney was a nazi, so fuck him.

>b-b-but NAZIS
Neck yourself.

RobbiexDipper > RobinxDipper

...

How do you look at yourself in the mirror you fucking nazi?

But I don't think Gravity Falls was meant to be an "adult" show either, it's probably meant to be for general audiences.

It's because the fujos scattered somewhere else

Oh fuck off back to your Tumblr safe space.

Robbies ugly and probably smells bad.

The problem with Kristen Schaal is she uses her natural voice to voice characters so they all sound the exact same and it's very distracting to hear Mabel in a Captain Underpants movie.

Grunkle Stan's a great character, and Sup Forums likes to complain, and it's also hard to make a discussion on something you like.

There are times when the writing in children's media is so sophisticated that it can only be wholly understood by well-read, intelligent adults (The Little Prince is a good example), so it's not so unreasonable to believe that. Still, in that regard, Gravity Falls is a joke.

>Apparently, that was a bad thing though.

I get the impression that what the show was aiming for some sort of "don't be in such a hurry to do adult-ish things and just let the growing up process occur naturally instead of getting in over your head." Which isn't necessarily a terrible message, but at the same time it felt like that message would hit a massive road block when it came to characters like Mabel because while she should've been the other side of that coin since her "arc" was that she wanted to cling to childhood forever, but the writers at times felt like they just refused to follow through on that so Dipper ended up learning that lesson for her.

Manlet Irritating Drumpf's Followers

>Trump is responsible for people not liking my show
Hirsch please leave

That's why you watch the absolute masterpiece that is Gravity Falls and not that other bullshit.

yeah I can't fucking stand that about her

Welcome to why trump won.

>The Little Prince
is 2deep5you, boring, overrated shit

It's a shame you never read the book.

I did in 7th grade.
I got better.

>Bait this weak

.....But most of Trump's supporters are manlets. They compensate for their genetic weakness with excercise.

I never thought I'd say this, but Mabel doesn't deserve Mr. Krupp

But her voice is practically perfect for Mabel.
