* ShrugOfGod: During a Reddit AMA, Alex had occasionally responded ambiguously to questions (spoilers such as why Stan's fez design changed, or regarding inappropriate ones like the Pines' religion) with pictures of an Axolotl. The more noteworthy queries was answered years later through ''Literature/GravityFallsJournal3''.

After ''Gravity Falls'' ended its run in 2016 (with the stated intention of avoiding SeasonalRot), Hirsch became involved with the film-making industry, providing some contributions for the stories of ''Film/PokemonDetectivePikachu'' and ''WesternAnimation/SpiderManIntoTheSpiderVerse'', but left both during pre-production. Hirsch is currently a voice actor and creative consultant on ''WesternAnimation/TheOwlHouse'', and is co-producing a Netflix series ''WesternAnimation/InsideJob2021''.
