Also, where are you right now?

Hey now, he has the right to an opinion, let's hear him out.

And then we can burn him inside of a wicker man when he's done.

But less Mabel in season 2 is compromise...

I've always felt that a lot of the female characters were written poorly one way or the other.

I'm not in the mood for making text walls on a phone, but I will say that I just don't find Mabel's actions endearing (which is odd because I normally enjoy whacky characters like her) and her voice really grates on me for some reason.

Mabel's great. Kristen Schaal is great. It's a shame you don't like the character but it wouldn't be half the show it is without her. Seriously, I'm gonna guess that fully half the funniest lines come from her.

I mean, this is Dipper's Guide and she just completely steals the show:

Possibly still my favourite two minutes of the entire series.

Hmm, well without Mabel other characters like Soos and Wendy would get more of an oppurtunity to actually do stuff and have greater characterization, but the show would be unrecognizable without her.

Even as someone who didn't like how she turned out, I'm surprised her voice is one of the detracting factors for you. I really can't imagine Mabel sounding any different and it being better.

Just finished.

How the fuck did they get away with this shit??? There was pretty graphic Body Horror for Y7 rating!

Great show, though.

Flapjack just had a bunch of terrifying imagery...gross up close ups...

Body horror is completely different...

Nick and CN are the masters of including messed up crap in a kids cartoon.

[up]Indeed, I'm actually kinda proud of Disney for this. Although to be fair, Disney XD is a little more lenient. If Gravity Falls wasn't moved to XD I wonder if they would've been allowed to show some of the stuff they did on this show.

I was comparing it to Flapjack because Alex Hirsch was in charge of both of those.

I totally forgot he worked on Flapjack, which I still need to go through since I've only seen like 5 episodes of that show.
