Vox: In other interviews, you've said there are aspects of the show that are autobiographical, based on you and your sister's summers away from home as a kid. Now, as Gravity Falls prepares to debuts its second season tonight (a second season that will eventually see it moving to Disney XD), Hirsch talked with Vox about finding the right balance between emotion and humor, and why working for Disney is like having a pet brontosaurus. Series creator Alex Hirsch is able to get away with this weird mix of elements because he centers the show so ably on the relationship between Dipper and Mabel, turning the two into one of TV's best sibling pairings. It's also the sort of town where every paranormal phenomenon you could think of is real, and where little else is as it seems. The show is the story of young twins Dipper and Mabel Pines, who are sent for the summer to live with their great uncle, "Grunkle" Stan, a cranky old man who runs the Mystery Shack, a tourist attraction in the town of Gravity Falls.īut Gravity Falls is more than just local color and mysterious relatives. In its first season, the Disney Channel's Gravity Falls proved itself part of a new wave of emotionally resonant, surprisingly thoughtful, wickedly funny shows aimed at kids.
