5 | While she's probably best known as Mabel Pines on ''WesternAnimation/GravityFalls'' and Louise Belcher on ''WesternAnimation/BobsBurgers'', Schaal has had roles in projects as diverse as ''Series/FlightOfTheConchords'', ''WesternAnimation/ShrekForeverAfter'', ''Film/GetHimToTheGreek'', ''WesternAnimation/ToyStory3'', ''WesternAnimation/DespicableMe2'', ''Series/ThirtyRock'', ''WesternAnimation/CaptainUnderpantsTheFirstEpicMovie'', and ''WesternAnimation/BoJackHorseman''. She was also a contributor on ''Series/TheDailyShowWithJonStewart'' and a writer/consultant for ''WesternAnimation/SouthPark''. She stars opposite Creator/WillForte in ''Series/TheLastManOnEarth''. She even got to play {{God}} in an episode of ''WesternAnimation/AxeCop''. |

7 | Her physical appearance, mostly {{Cloudcuckoolander}} type persona and high-pitched voice make her the 21st century counterpart to Creator/GeorgeBurns' zany comedy partner and wife Creator/GracieAllen. The comparison even carries over to ''Gravity Falls'', where her character acted as the comic {{foil}} to Creator/JasonRitter's {{straight man}} character, much like Allen was foil to Burns' straight man during their old double acts. |

9 | Schaal is also known for the web series ''Penelope Princess of Pets'', in which she stars and co-writes with frequent collaborator Kurt Braunohler. A backdoor pilot for a ''Penelope'' TV series aired on the British anthology show ''Comedy Lab'', and Schaal and Braunohler also appeared as their ''Penelope'' characters in the video for Music/TheNewPornographers' "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l-g8J3pcmGY Muitiny, I Promise You]]". |
