I started watching Gravity Falls with my sister only because I had nothing better to watch, and I ended up becoming a really big fan of the show. I really love it!
One thing I like about the show is how the Brother Sister Team of Dipper and Mabel is both realistic and lovable. Me and my younger sister relate to those two a lot. My sister is always on the run doing crazy and ridiculous things, and I'm always trying to be calm and smart. That made me care for both characters on a personal level. Not only that, every main character in the show has something that we both love: Soos's loyalty even though he's kind of dumb, Stan's sarcasm and Wendy's love for breaking rules. It's a pretty colorful cast.
I also like the hilarious spin the writers put on the supernatural aspect of the show. Even though my sister was afraid of the monsters before she actually watched an episode, after watching the series she was laughing at practically every joke even if the monster was on-screen. I liked the Fight Fighters episode because of the Street Fighter parody and the Summerween episode because it had maybe the freakiest monster of the show so far, who also had the strangest origin. The theme song, besides being catchy as hell, is full of secrets and I was listening to it closely to hear the voices at the end every single time. And, wouldn't you know it, my eight-year-old sister prefers this show to My Little Pony Friendship Is Magic! I was surprised.
Gravity Falls is showing a lot of promise, and it's only on it's first season. I will be waiting for more episodes.
Very likeable show
