Gravity Falls - Pilot (Unaired) [1080p Upscale]
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 1 окт 2024
- This pilot has never aired on television, but the full episode was uploaded back in 2016 after Cipher Hunt, as a prize for the completion of the puzzle.
I saw this pilot on the original website and it was originally low quality when it was uploaded. The popular upload of it on RUclips is even lower quality, somehow.
I had nothing better to do today so I decided to upscale it to 1080p for anyone who wanted it. I think it turned out pretty decent!

I love how more than half the jokes of this made it into the official first episode.
yes
bro this the same episode
@@tristantanzil5796 well sometimes things are changed more drastically. For example, Steven Universe’s fist episode was vastly different from the pilot.
Mabel figuratively and literally spilling the beans by knocking over a can of beans
This is where the crush on the guy from the dollar bill came from
It’s crazy how the mattress prince was a concept even before the journals.
Or even Soos😭😭
Not only that, but Shmebulock also came before the journals
or mabel’s crush on alexander hamilton
@@salmonlysterthis is canon for everyone
@@zoeyhailey7726Don't forgor Wendy
I'm so glad Gruncle Stan's design changed to what it is now
FR. He looks so weird in the pilot 😭😭😭
Me too
Yeahhhh
He looks like mayor hucabone
I forgot his name but remember his middle name😅
As lovely as this style is, I will never stop loving the dark, atmospheric style we saw in the show. It just has a vibe to it that I'll probably never see again.
I highly recommend over the garden wall if you like gravity falls.
I know I'm in the minority but they kinda use the style of GF in everything going forward baring live action, svtfoe, and molly mcgee
This style feels more like modern cartoons instead of early 2010's
Big City Greens looks like Gravity Falls when their faces aren't moving.
How do you say a box coming
It's interesting how some scenes like Norman leaving the kitchen is almost identical just with a new artstyle and some things like the gnome king were completely scrapped
I like how the gnome king is just Justin Roland doing Lemon Grab again

The biggest mystery on gravity falls has to be
WHO IS DR. CRACKPOT 😭
Probably ford
Ford most likely or as we know in his previous version cousin Tim
Porbably ford but he put a fake name
I love how they just randomly break so much stuff.
Just like in the original show lol. I don’t think I can even count how many times the mystery shack was broken down.😂

Filldleford stole the journals but the publishers gave a warning
thats why i love pilot episodes so much because you can see that sometimes, the creator didnt even know where exactly it was supposed to go. and so you can compare it and see how good it actually got. same thing for helluva boss and hazbin hotel

I feel like I'm watching tv in an alternate reality and I love it
Plot twist, that's exactly what this is, it's a leak between realities.
As in RnM

Just thought the same while i was watching the pilot from Star vs the force of evil before this here
@@clur136I understood that reference
Gotta love that the pilots version of the journals wasn't a book hidden away by an author who dissapeared from society, but rather a book dipper just happened to bring with him.
Dr. Crackpots book of the dammed!
the idea that this universes equivalent of the hunt for the author would be the hunt for dr crackpot is extremely funny to me
i was not expecting them to play To Binge holy god 😭
LITERALLY WHAT I WAS SAYING 😭😭
I WAS LOOKING FOR THIS COMMENT
SAME
RIGHT LMAO
That's exactly why I searched this! 😂
the fact that this entire scene 8:22 was completely different to the final cut.
I mean it was awkward as hell, glad it got replaced. This pilot has it's charm though!
It’s cuz no music
@@notusedtmindHow??? Unless you mean the lack of music cues, but that goes for most of the pilot. The scene itself is fine
@@Calamity25 Dipper randomly encounters the gnomes as they're running away, somehow doesn't see Mabel until he catch up right next to them and then somehow can't catch up to 3 tiny gnomes running on foot. The gnomes awkwardly sprint in front of dipper with the exact same speed allowing them to have an uninterrupted conversation like nothing is going on.
I love how Alex used the song "To Binge" of Gorillaz, it fits a lot
Saw on the comments and it lead me here. To Binge is my favorite song. Ever.
GORILLAZZZZZZZ YESSSHHHHHHH

Imagine having so many likes but 4 comments
I loved when they said “it’s gravity time” then falled all over the place
Bro💀
You can see Alex's influence from working on Fish Hooks, Justin Roiland was already set to play a character, and it's awesome to see that WAY before even the concept probably of Bill Cipher, there was the motif of the villain turning into stone. So glad that they used that again in the finale. What a lovely cherry on top.
Also the bird sitting on its hand like it did with Bill
@@galisherman6275aaahhh its amazing how everything came full circle
I KNEW THE ART STYLE LOOKED FAMILIAR

It isn't an obscure gravity falls video without a comment from GF fan lmao
@@Cherrychip lmao.
@@HouseofGoodLiving Thank you. Really appreciate that. You did a great job upscaling the pilot. Looks like something straight out of the animation studio :P
I'm so happy Stan didn't look like that in the real show man
fr☠️
Swooning over stans wouldn't exist if yhey didn't changed stan
This pilot actually sums up Dipper and Mabel's relationship so well. Dipper is the more "reasonable" one, but Mabel is still smart in her own weird social way. That's why she knows ghosts like Boo-berry more than Cookies n' Scream and that's why Dipper knew Norman was not normal.
Not sure how the ghost thing figures into things here
@@redcoat4348cmon it’s a pretty social thing to know the favourite flavour of ghosts
How is it different from the new show ?
@@Samenamena Its less about it being different from the actual show, and more about it being a good pitch pilot.
It does its job at introducing the setting and characters really well, and thats worth praise on its own.
Pilot is fun to watch, but I’m glad they changed things up without scraping all of the ideas they had. I like the current series’s darker vibe and that they added Cipher and all. Even Dipper’s hat has more meaning now cuz well he got it as a gift from the shop from Stan. (And im so glad they upgraded Stans appearance.) I wouldn’t have watched the series in this style, but its fun to see raw ideas before the final product.
Dipper’s hat also has a bigger importance as it has the Pine Tree symbol from the Cipher Wheel
I noticed, Mabel’s crush on the guy on the 10 dollar bill, got returned in “love god”
Ok but can we take a moment to appreciate the fact Mabel was a psychic in the pilot (kinda)

I mean doubt Bill was even conceptualized back then, but it would be interesting
grunc got a HUGE glowup
For everyone commenting on the differences, Alex Hirsch revealed in a podcast that Disney had him throw something together and he did this in adobe flash in like a week thinking they weren’t serious. He thought the character of stan would surely put them off
there's no way this was made in a week
@@trevrr never underestimate passionate artists
@@Twiddle_things more like don't underestimate someone who is forced to do work and does it last minute.
Do you remember which podcast? It'd be neato pateato to check it out
@@march5057 i assume it’s Behind the Scenes of Gravity Falls. On Apple Podcasts and Spotify I think. I believe it’s a rip of the audio from a series included in the GF box set. Super interesting stuff!
I find it funny how the voice Alex used for the owl clock is almost exactly like the voice Alex used for Hooty in TOH
I WAS THINKING THE SAME THING, WHAT THE HECK-
That hit me like a truck. First time I'm rewatching this pilot since watching TOH.
He was always here... you can’t escape the bird tube!
Hooty’s origin story
No, but seriously.
He says "hoo hoo" in Gravity Falls.
He says again as Hooty but as "hoot hoot".
And other characters on the Boiling Isles repeat it.
The owl in Gravity Falls is a clock.
Lilith carries Hooty in a little house but also is reminiscent as an antique clock.
6:03
4:18 interesting how this was what the mysterious journals first looked like.
The pilot feels like Gravity Falls but also doesn’t, I still love it and think it’s hilarious.
Exactlyyyyy
If Gravity Falls was Nickelodeon
@@Miles-Morales-q3w
Yes😂
I think an entire show with this art direction would be cool.
Hey people from the future if you’re seeing this comment and I actually did it give me $10.
it feels like a mad parody lol
Surreal to see the same plot without Soos' few jokes in the first episode! IMO he really added to it and I would've loved to see him in this style!
I was wondering why I was enjoying the episode more. The worst character wa a gone.
@BushBumperBaker eh, that's your opinion and that's fair. Personally I really liked him in the show even if he was a little cheesy at times.

Bro when go go gadget mode
This is so eerie. This is like watching an alternate universe. It's the same but so different. I wanna see Bill in this design. I wanna see Ford in this design!!
Honestly, if they changed Stan's design to the final one, I think I would've liked this style even more. Mabel and Dipper are adorable, and also feel more their age.
Agreed! I think this style has a bit more personality and movement though I prefer the final designs and backgrounds.
I don't like how bright they are in my opinion. Like at the part where dipper holds the book the hands look too bright, and the books dark/dark gray.
Hmmm… Nah. To me, Dipper looks more like the „cool“ type of guy here, especially the way he‘s standing with his hands in his pockets. It doesn’t match his personality at all (plus I absolutely don’t like the way we see his teeth all the time when he’s talking if yk what I mean)
Stan looks much better in the original gravity falls version and the animation isn’t that smooth either.
Mabel here is cute tho, but not cuter than her original version. As for the style, idk, both are interesting to me
True I kinda hate his prototype design
Ehhhhhh no
This is a really interesting art style. I think it's because it's a bit jarring because I'm so used to the normal style. It's still visually appealing...
Except Stan. Stan looks...weird
it looks a bit like those anti-bullying videos
He looks like a parakeet, or really just a bird with some stout nose
he looks more of 'that weird uncle your family forces you to hang out with every 4 years'
he almost looks like the mayor from the actualy show lmao
@@lemonmeatthey reused the same design
6:03 If this clock was voiced by Alex Hirsch, they literally predicted Hooty a decade before TOH
I like how for their first episode they kept the pilot’s idea, even though the art style is different it actually gave the series a boost
This one of the best unaired pilot episodes I ever seen from any cartoon show
Fr
I love how most of the lines were added into the official episode and jokes, And they did a good job on changing the journal to something more interesting.
“Welp, it’s time to spill the beans”
*casually knocks over a realistic PNG of a can of beans*
THE PILOT HAD A “your probably wondering how I ended up in this situation”
doesnt the final episode also have this cliche?
@@LvkeNineT8 it does lol it's just worded differently
I love shows that have that vibe.
Man Mabel and Dipper’s pilot designs are so appealing. The colors are so warm and soft and they’re so expressive. The show style is just as good if not better but I loooove how some parts of this look.
"all in all, it was the least weird day of summer"
that was a good one haha
so many good jokes in that pilot, my other favorite was the "Gruncle Stan !" *breaks a lamp "I need to borrow your golf cart to save my sister from a zombie !!!" *hands keys
Stan : "try not to hit any pedestrians."
Wendy: am I a joke to you?
@@Snappy29 watch the whole vid.
@@AbsentPFP watch the whole joke.
@@FoxDavoid ik that but in the unaired version thats what it says
The decision to add an element of mystery to the journal dipper reads from totally made the show. Love this pilot
9:16 Gnome Jumpscare
To be honest, I would’ve LOVED the show just as much as I do now if not more if they kept the art style like this.
Same and maybe even this entire episode
It looks good, but the original style makes gravity falls more mysterious and eerie looking, feeding more into the mystery parts of the show.
Idk about the journals being called dr.crackpots book of the damned though
@@paperjambam “crackpot” 😂
Are you kidding it looks so much uglier and lazier
Stan: -Alright! Let me introduce my twin brother, Dr. Crackpot!
I couldn’t be happier that they changed Grunkle Stan’s design 💀
I remember when I first saw the pilot and I deadass thought the show was getting rebooted
Bruh 💀
It actually does look like it
It has a similar style to the Ben 10 reboot
To be honest, this animation style is great, a few tweaks here and there, but I would love to see a whole web series or even reboot with this style

I'M CAUGHT AGAIN IN THE MYSTERY
YOU'RE BY MY SIDE, BUT ARE YOU STILL WITH ME?
This show was so unbelievably good. Even this pilot, which is very rough around the edges manages to pull through and be something great. A literal demo for a show was better than the final result of some other shows. I love this series so much, and it’s really sad that it ended.
I get the sense this was a pilot that intended to double as the first episode, it's far too comprehensive, I'm amazed they changed direction after putting so much effort into developing this style.
Damn, this looks so different from the original. I really like how the first episode turned out so I’m glad they changed it, but it’s still really interesting to see what it looked like beforehand, it feels like I’m watching a different version of the show.
"To binge" needs to be the opening song of the gravity falls movie, if there ever is one
Grunkle Stan looks so much better in the real show than he does here
Agreed
I mean, I kinda like that he looks more middle aged here. I dunno why though.
@@cheeseyleavesI always thought he looked like twenty years older
@@droptherapy2085 Yeah, he does look older than the Grunkle Stan we got
I have heard somewhere that they decided he should be like 10 years younger in the show

i tbink stan is the issue he don’t fit his voice like in the offical
There’s no soos so I think it’s worse

I LOVE GORILLAZ
No one is going to talk about how To Binge by Gorillaz is playing in 0:27 ???
Honestly, the only thing I would change about the style is stans design. The design the show had was perfect. Other than that, I think I would have enjoyed it just the same if they kept this look going.
I feel like this style would not fit the "lore" episodes at all, but if this show was just filler like this episode the style would definitely fit here.
It feels like a really soft and fluffy style for some reason
Like a memory
But it wouldn't fit the lore like the other guy said
And also I feel like it's a bit more of a "kid friendly" style
And wouldn't fit the plot of the show

It's "To Binge" for anyone wondering
Definitely one of my favorite childhood TV shows. Thanks for sharing
6:03 I love how he sounded exactly like hooty from the owl house, crazy how he was in so many recognizable shows. I never thought he did VA for hooty, but turns out he does!

He’s the husband of the person who made owl house
@@RameNoodls Actually, Dana and Alex dated but they recently broke up. From what I know they never got married.
I wonder how Wendy, Soos, Gideon and Other Characters would look like with this Animation Style.
Always liked Dipper's design in this one, it kinda feels like it's an older version of the one the show actually went with. Now he looks more confident and adventurous, like maybe he learned to be more bold after the first summer at the falls.

I have seen roller skaters fall funnier tbh
How was the fall?
Stoked as much as the next about To Binge, but does anyone have an ID on the chiptune track during the chase sequence?
4:05 that sounded improvised
That's what i was thinking too
If it was, then that's 10 times funnier
The fact that if that episode aired, the story would be much MUCH different. Like the journal story is different the gnomes couldn't help in the Gideon's episode and let me be honest I don't like the animation that much and I am happy it changed. If the animation was like that it wouldn't be my 1# show.😂
I still can't believe this masterpiece of a show started with a "yep, that's me. You're probably wondering how I got here".
A lot of pilots have maybe a bit of an altered story or sound design but wow this was basically an entirely different show
I mean the plot is the same as one episode
I mean it only really looks completely different. They basically made this exact episode but longer and with more stuff. It really is impressive how much carried over into the actual episode
Its the same plot for the episode but the settings and lore of the bigger series is completely different. Stan is very different in character, the journal...

6:08 - Hooty!?!
0:30 Fun fact: The background music here is a song made by Gorillaz, it's actually a really beautiful song called To Binge.
Reminds of fish hooks ngl
It's interesting how there was no Soos and Wendy at this point. Just stan, Dipper, Mabel and all the weirdness of gravity falls
