* Even if it ultimately seems like a good thing that they failed, Dipper and Soos put up a damn good fight trying to prevent Stan from reaching his potentially universe-destroying portal. Soos especially since he considers protecting the kids, and by extension the universe, more important than his duty to the employer and ''father figure'' he has known for almost half his life.

* Even if it ultimately seems like a good thing that they failed, Dipper and Soos put up a damn good fight trying to prevent Stan from reaching his potentially universe-destroying portal. One extra cool moment is the focus on Dipper's birthmark while he's trying to convince Mabel to shut down the portal. Soos especially since he considers protecting the kids, and by extension the universe, more important than his duty to the employer and ''father figure'' he has known for almost half his life.

* A minor one, but new Mayor Cutebiker is shown to have balls of steel when he stands up (though understandably afraid) to Bill and his gang by politely demanding they leave, which is a HUGE one for him. Unfortunately, it works as much as you'd expect.

to:

* A minor one. Bill has entered reality, has attained ultimate power, and turned Stanford into a statue. Out of options, with the journals themselves saying all is lost, what does Dipper do? Go for the hail mary and try to ''running jump punch Bill right in the eye''. It doesn’t work, but that takes some guts.

** Stan foils Gideon's schemes three times over the course of the episode. (Well, two-and-a-half, since the mirrors delayed more than 'thwarted.') In the first two, Stan outfoxes Gideon with only a few seconds to realize what was happening and react. In the last scheme, he got the wool over Gideon without even meaning to. Stan is just constantly on the make and happened to be tooling around on a new 'attraction.'

** The series soundtrack in general. Gideon's Theme and Bill Cipher's theme are genuinely terrifying, while big battle scenes and bombshell secrets are given sweeping epic scores more suitable for movies.
* The ''Gravity Falls bumper card'': it's Dipper driving away from the gnome golem in the Mystery Shack golf cart (as in the pilot) and then crashing through a ''Welcome to Gravity Falls'' billboard, forming a silhouette in the shape of the Disney Channel logo.
** In another bumper, when Mabel is choosing a sweater to wear she cycles through NINE that she was already wearing before choosing one. Who wears that many sweaters at once?
** A third bumper has Stan receive a gold chain in the mail with the channel's logo on it.

* How about Abuelita herself? She proved herself to be the OnlySaneWoman in a town filled with brain dumb people. It's especially impressive given the existence of a certain group.



* They managed to get Cecil Baldwin for a cameo in ''The Stanchurian Candidate'' [[http://resumes.actorsaccess.com/cecilbaldwin as you can see on his resume.]] Yes, ''that'' [[Podcast/WelcomeToNightVale Cecil Baldwin.]]
* The show is getting a video game for the Nintendo [=3DS=]! ''Gravity Falls: Legend of the Gnome Gemulets''. And creator Alex Hirsch is helping with the development, bringing the show's style and humor to make this game an authentic experience!
* The entire fact that Alex Hirsch decided right at the start of Season 2 that it should be the show's last, and actually stuck with that, even as the Disney execs prevented him from making the news public and probably made some pretty lucrative offers for more seasons. The man has an iron-hard will when it comes to [[DoingItForTheArt deciding what's best for his art]], and he refused to stretch the show past its natural end point just for the sake of doing more.



* The cover of the upcoming select your own adventure book is pretty cool. Dipper in cowboy threads, wielding a laser gun and firing at a cowboy, and Mabel riding a fire breathing dragon.
* Think of every sweater you've seen Mabel wear in the show. The total is ''one hundred and four''. Apparently she knitted all of them herself by the age of ''twelve''!



* [[https://twitter.com/_AlexHirsch/status/978667402064875521 A DVD/Blu-Ray boxset has finally been announced to be released by Shout Factory, with every episode on seven discs and tons of bonus content as well!]]
