* RefittedForSequel: A scrapped idea for Season 2 involved [[spoiler:the universe portal sucking in the Pines family]], at which point they would explore the multiverse. This idea was discarded when they decided it would disrupt the flow of the second season. However, the basic concept was reused for the story "Don't Dimension It" in ''ComicBook/GravityFallsLostLegends''.

** According to Hirsch in [[https://youtu.be/KwmqxAdxUKg?si=kpauD23u_vQJCJ4r this interview]] (around nine minutes in), Soos--originally named Jesús--went through several different variations of his name before the final one was settled on, as "Jesús" was deemed to be too close to "Jesus", it couldn't be spelled "Seuss", as that would be too close to Creator/DrSeuss, and "Sus" (pronounced as "Soos") also "had a problem".

** Hirsch is, according to a [[http://www.reddit.com/r/gravityfalls/comments/1kgq85/i_am_alex_hirsch_creator_of_gravity_falls_ask_me/cbosezb?context=3 reddit thread]], not terribly fond of the 11-minute pilot used to pitch the show, though he did release it as a reward for completing the [[AlternateRealityGame Cipher Hunt]].

"Oh lord I hope not. That thing was a mess, haha! That would be like showing you awkward photos from my high school prom. We all have dark horrible secrets. That 11 minute Flash pilot was mine."

* ShrugOfGod: Alex Hirsch answered plenty of questions about the show, but since it's a mystery series, he couldn't answer all of them without giving spoilers. He came up with a number of unorthodox things to put in place of spoilers, including just posting pictures of axolotls — which becomes a bizarre sort of BrickJoke in the GrandFinale, as there's a backward message from [[spoiler:a dying Bill Cipher calling out to "Axolotl" as if invoking the power of a god]]. A decent number of the bigger questions were answered in Gravity Falls: Journal 3, such as Dipper's real name, but many others (such as questions to [[AmbiguouslyJewish the Pines family's religion]]) receive either a shrug or have him invoke DeathOfTheAuthor so he doesn't have to think about it.

** Fans gave a great deal of backlash at "The Time Traveler's Pig" for Dipper and Mabel's ProtagonistCenteredMorality in getting Blendin' Blandin in trouble [[KarmaHoudini while they get off scot-free of the trouble they caused to the timeline]]. "Blendin's Game" has Dipper and Mabel feeling bad for what they did to him [[spoiler:and helped him get back his job, and got him a head of hair]].
** In "The Time Traveler's Pig" and "The Deep End", Dipper has to sacrifice his potential happiness for Mabel, causing fans to complain that she never even considers doing the same. In "Sock Opera," [[BigBad Bill Cipher]] actually uses this argument, and Mabel's treatment of him in that episode, to [[DealWithTheDevil trick Dipper]] into [[GrandTheftMe letting Bill steal his body]]. When Mabel confronts "Bipper" at the end of the episode, he almost talks her into sacrificing Dipper for her own happiness...only for her to remember how often he helped her and refuse, saving the day.
** "Into The Bunker" was written to [[RescuedFromTheScrappyHeap rescue Wendy from the Scrappy heap]]. She's shown to be an ActionGirl who's a huge asset on a dangerous mission; she also lets Dipper down gently when he confesses his crush.
