I was at the Hirsch book signing in Seattle. Alex stated at the end of Gravity Falls, Disney asked for more... but the only thing Alex had on the back burner was the idea for The Book of Bill. Of course, at the time Disney shot it down. Fast forward to current times, due to Disney+, Gravity Falls is racking up a lot of views to a new generation. There's a resurgence in popularity. Hell, there's been actually Summerweens. So, Disney now in desperation for more Falls gave Hirsch the greenlight to do the mature Book of Bill.
The point of The Great Gatsby's relevance is to tell us to let go of the past. A big thing with Gatsby's character is that he ultimately can not let go of Daisy, and it keeps eating him up, until his inevitable demise. He had to learn to let go of the past, just as we need to learn to let go of Gravity Falls. I genuinely don't think that we're getting a new season, and that's fine. We need to learn to except that this show, at least for what it currently is, might just be stuck in the past, and we need to expect that the past IS the past.
the point of great gatsby was because of the hint towards the very first password. It was for the original login page of the website, and if you read question #7 upside down it shows a message that says "need a password? fine I'll talk." Tilting the book to the right reveals another message, which reads "It's the name of the eyeball doc." a.k.a. TJ Eckleburg from The Great Gatsby when he sees a giant billboard with TJ's giant eyes on them, referenced a couple more times in the book. which revealed that first countdown! 👏
Stanley's code actually has a secret within it, if you keep clicking it and go through all the ebay redirects, it opens a page called "the wheel of shame" where bill shows off some of Stanley's darkest memories and secrets, at the end of it there's "how he beat me", if you keep clicking it shows' Stan's symbol on fire, and a poem about his life, with the ending statement being: "you really think you won the day, you packed your bags and sailed away, you think you left the past behind, but trust me, *im still on your mind*" So uhhh. What's up with that am i right
Fun fact: if you keep entering Stanley into the computer and going back to the website from the eBay listings, you can see the “Wheel of Shame”, showing a bunch of information about Stanley, such as ex-wives, unreported crimes, and a section titled “How he beat me”. Do with that what you will.
Also, if you type in any brain Rat words except for sigma, it will say now releasing poisonous gas. I don’t know if that’s just what happens sometimes if you type something that’s not part of it or if they actually put that in.
It would be so cool to get like a Bill centered series for mature audiences, maybe acompanying his journey to find a partner to help with the portal like each 1 or 2 episode exploring one of his attempts leading to him being trapped in the theraprism
TJ Eckleburg code came from the 'The One True Intelligence Test' specifically question VII on page 3 of the test. It looks like a square of lines, but if you tilt the book both vertically and horizontally, it reads "Need a password? Fine I'll talk. It's the name of the eyeball doc" and lo and behold, TJ Eckleburg is the optometrist in Great Gatsby
TJ Eckleburg was also an important symbol in that story. As my English teacher put it, his billboard with the eyes represented the watchful eyes of god, judging the citizens of New York and their actions. Sorta makes you think, doesn’t it?
On the straw pages there's riddles hinting at it too. One is something along the lines of "a doctor of a different kind who wants to make his patient blind" Lines up according to someone I know who actually liked the great Gatsby, which I didn't much care for
If the “How NOT to draw Grunkle Stan” is the canonical reason why Bill returns in a potential season 3, the fanbase will be split on whether or not bringing in “the real world” was the right idea for the franchise.
I think that T.J. Eckleburg being the password is interesting on a level based on one of the chapters from the book. The silly straws page spread contains a coded rhyme that implies Bill was basically lobotomized out of his ability to see the third dimension as a child by a doctor hired by his parents, who tricked him into drinking a mind-altering solution by using something Bill loved, silly straws. T.J. Eckleburg would represent that doctor. If you type his name into the computer on the website again, it says, "NEVER MENTION THAT NAME AGAIN." Maybe that's why Bill got so uncomfortable and interrupted the Great Gatsby excerpt...
I’m sure it was a slow process and he caught on at some point and went “aye fuck y’all” then went on to show everyone the 3rd dimension at some point, lost control, and then goes his entire dimension destroyed.
If you type "I'M STILL ON YOUR MIND" you get a video of Stan on a boat! Likely with Ford. And if you type in "Stan" multiple times, each result will give you something different! And you're correct! Bill is in fact still in Stan's mind as confirmed on the website 😭
At the very end of the string of "Stan" codes you get Bill basically freaking out and writing a whole poem about how much "Stan sucks". Through decoding some cyphers a bit earlier he basically tells us that when he closes his eyes, he can still see through the eyes of every person he has ever possessed
@@cawareyoudoin7379 I would assume it's anyone who he has possessed or made deals with. We know it's not killed or eaten cause we see Stan's vision through Bill's POV through the other code (and yes it's Bill's POV cause everything we type gives us either a neutral document or a direct response from Bill, like Dipper's code for example)
If you put Robbie it shows a text conversation between him and thompson, and at the end it states that he summoned back bill and has a picture of them running from him
On the website, if you type in "Vallis cineris" (Latin for "valley of ashes"), then you get a video of baby bill with his parents. The parents are just silhouettes of tv static, but one distinctly has a top hat on, which we can assume is his father. There's also a voice asking "why did you do it?" Presumably his parents asking why he destroyed his home.
Keep typing in Stanley! It goes a lot deeper than the brass knuckles! Also, the website isn't the end of this. You don't just start an arg for your show 10 years after the show ends without something else attached to it.
I think it's just Alex expanding the show's lore, nothing more. I mean people now see the whole "I don't want the summer to end" under a different angle knowing now exactly why twins' parents sent them away to Gravity Falls and Billford was apparaently canon? I mean that's a feast for me for sure.
@@jackxannys4482 Sure but I really don't see how that confirms anything like a season 3 or movie. To me it seems like Alex was finally able to make a book that he's been wanting to make since the end of the show, only just getting green lit by Disney now. I have not seen any convincing evidence that there will be more content other than people saying "I feel like there should be" lol
I’m not sure if anybody has commented this, but on the website, when you put in RIDDLE, then YES, it sends you on a scavenger hunt of niche details within the book, ultimately ending in it giving you a bunch of pages from the book without text as backgrounds. I think there was something else where you layer the backgrounds or something, but I don’t know.
@@TheInfintyithGoofball Ha that’s impressive. I was working furiously with a friend for like an hour tearing through the pages to find all the answers.
@@malachifreedman3975 There's a wallpaper which is called "XWHYZ" which has a lot of glass Bills close to the borders of the page and the rest is a black screen. Although if you brighten it up 3 of the glass Bills are highlighted and there's a 1 pixel thick rectangle on the right side. That's where we're stuck right now. People have been trying other codes, combining stuff, overlapping some of the wallpapers together and see if we can get some codes or a cypher out of them but so far we got nothing concrete. Also, if you stitch all of the wallpapers together next to each other they make either a portal or (more likely) a fairly visible Bill Cypher presumably looking towards Dipper and Mabel in one of the wallpapers (the last wallpaper can be brightened up to reveal some stuff including a mysterious rectangle which, at least in this case, would fit to be his pupil). The wallpapers basically make a triangle outline and another inner outline which looks like an eye. Although except this being a cool thing, it led to nothing else but it doesn't even use all the info we get from the brightened up image sooo idk.

I watched Gravity Falls with my kids about a month ago. My 4 year old LOVES Bill. She has rewatched the series about 10 times at this point and she is drawing Bill everywhere in chalk... I'm sure its nothing.
if you put "skibidi", or "gyatt" the computer says "Life privelieges revoked, releasing poison gas" edit: this got way more damn attention than needed holy crap thanks for 2.9k likes.
Just went on the site and here are a couple I found. 1. Portal asks us to make one 2. If you type dorito you actively get a jump scare 3. Skibidi is actually a word that works
I think it would be cool to see a new series going over the adventures of Stanford writing the journals in the first place. Showing how he studied everything and built all his secret labs and bunkers
To be fair, Alex always wanted a darker show and themes but couldn't really due to Disney's limitations. However, I think a prequel series or even just another group of characters on this wild ride would be really cool.
I wouldn’t mind maybe a mini season or more that goes into a more deep depth into bill’s backstory, like what was his world like? Is it like what we theorized? What about his parents? Is bill really back? That would be really cool to see honestly
I honestly think we won't get a continuation, but more of like a prequal? Something like an epilogue series of Stanford after he got sucked into the portal or maybe even seeing bill's dimension before he destroyed it
If you type "SORRY" you get a picture of McGucket and Stanford at University and you can flip the picture to reveal writing on the back by McGucket. He writes about how he was made fun of for his theory of the universe being a hologram, but Stanford backed him up, claiming he would not rest until he proves it.
This was the most fun I had in years. Reading the book and then going through codes on the site. I discovered 75% of it myself and then joined the reddit to get the rest.
If you were to ask somebody who is the most important character in gravity falls they would probably say Dipper or Ford but in my opinion it is 100% seuss
I SQUEALED AT THE MATPAT CAMEO (Also giggled on your commentary on said cameo) I'd love to see a GF movie more than a third season. BUT a season 3 would not be a bad thing in my eyes, nor do I think it'd ruin the first two, not if it's handled well. But we shall see where all of this goes. Won't we, Bill? 👀
I think a 3rd season of Gravity Falls should not include Bill's return because that would make season 2 look awkard and less meaningfull. In general, it is hard to find a nice topic for a 3rd season. Winter would be cool to have a different touch of the universe. But there could be a Gravity Falls movie at least. About the shapshifter? I guess this would be a small but special oppurtunity to see the guys a little more older, and having another small adventure
11:47 i turned up my brightness and I was able to read the blacked out part. it says "I could kidnap him and bring him to our secret cloning lab" Also I think the part of the date that has the ink stain says 1950 but I'm not entirely sure so take that with a grain of salt
my friend brought the book of bill to school and at the end of the day we walked to the lunch tables and all huddled toghter to read it anytime someone else talked about something other than the book we immediately shushed them and continued reading
For some of these really great shows with in-depth world building, i'd like to see new stories told in the same universe. Dipper and Mabel's story may be finished, but its a big world and a lot could be done with it.
Wait a minute. Season -1, Antigravity Falls. Taken literally, could possibly imply not a sequel, but a spiritual successor. Like, a “screw you Disney, I’ll make my own show without you” kinda project. Completely separate, new lore, but with all the nerdy stuff Alex Hirsch loves to inject into his projects. Just food for thought.
TJ Eckleburg is found in the book of bill, after you “Get Gatsby’d” several times in the excerpt, the duo traveling to Bill’s (not cypher, a character in TGG) shop is mentioned doing so under a bill board for Eckleburg, namely under his “watchful eye”
There's a spot you showed after "So Many Questions" where, in the book, a sketch of Soos is asking "How did I get here?" Sounds like Bill is back in the 2nd dimension and somehow pulled Soos in. Maybe he realized that the Second dimension can lead to the Digital Dimension - AKA: the internet - and is trying to use THAT to make his comeback. Just a thought coming from a Gravity Falls noob.
If you type "Fiddleford" on the password thingy, you get the music video for "Cotton Eye Joe." Damn. I love Gravity Falls. Edit: Thank you all for one hundred likes, I don't think I ever get this much attention lol.
All I have to say about this is: Disney did not pay the $$$ it would take to set all this up without a return on investment somewhere. If the website lead to the book, I'd say "Okay cool this was their ad campaign to get people to buy the book." BUT What we got was the other way around: You can only find the site after you've bought the book, ergo: If the book hadnt sold well, but all this was still set up it be a huge waste of cash. There has to be something that Disney as a for-profit corporation is getting out of this; and as stated it isnt book sales. So what ARE they building hype for? What is Disney planning to put out that they allowed spending all this money. Weird Al may be cheap relative to disney's pocket book... but even Grunkle Stan would call Disney out for how they are with money. So no, this is going... somewhere. I wont say to what exactly, but there is something coming of this or Alex Hirsch is somehow a master of getting Disney to open their wallets for no return.
I remember seeing something on the not website that was basically "if you are in peoples minds, you live forever," and Bill sure is living in peoples minds
Typing in "Vallis cineris" was pretty wierd, what looked to be a baby Bill being held by two staticy triangles asking "why did you do it" 3 times. Hectoring also plays what sounds like a gospel track so there is that too.
Now we have an actual backstory for our buddy Bill. He came from the dimension “euclydia” and had the very rare ability to see into the third dimension aka our world. The other shapes from euclydia didn’t understand what he was talking about when he said directions like “up” or “down”. So he decided to show everyone the third dimension. But he ended up killing everyone in euclydia. He probably blamed himself for everything he did even though he never meant any wrong and eventually ended up as a psychopathic murderer. But deep down he knows that he is a good guy turned back because of the one mistake he made. He misses home and can’t return. He feels guilt about his parents. He is
remember that this show is not referencing anything in the real world so you are safe to engage in these occult practices go ahead fun for the whole family !!
Has anyone noticed that the symbol on the back of the book is different than it was in the show? I haven’t seen anyone talk about this. Could it be big or am I just overlooking things?
As a teenager who has played still wakes the deep and gone searching the deepest darkest corners for ARGs, I aint taking no age rating serious unless its the terrorizer
I'll admit, I have been curious what Ford's dimensional adventures looked like. It's giving Rick and Morty energy sans the most interesting par where we actually get to see crazy multiversal mind bending adventures. On one hand, it might be one of those things where its' better left a mystery since anything I could imagine might be cooler than what they could write and animate, but if Hirsch came back with a new series and was confident in the product he wants to present us, well I'd be seated.
With this demon triangle ahh book, more fans than ever screamed their hearts out with a triumphant *”SEAOSN 3 CONFIRMED!”* but I agree that we don’t need it. Maybe a little extra season that showcases the wacky stuff that happened after they left. Maybe a season dedicated to show what stanfords been doing asides from a book
welp- were all screwed, disney just brought bill into the 3rd dimension with their new video its not over yet I expect much more to come from this since we expected the website to be the last of it 0-0

Tbh I’m hoping they consider Alex’s “Sea Grunks” proposition (a mini-series or something with Stanley and Stanford going on adventures)

To be fair, Alex always wanted a darker show and themes but couldn't really due to Disney's limitations. However, I think a prequel series or even just another group of characters on this wild ride would be really cool.
Try typing any of these [SPOLERS!!!]:
- DISNEY or MICKEY
- TITANS BLOOD
- CURSE WITTEBANE
- WADDLES
- DEER TEETH
- GIFFANY (Try more than once!)
- YOU'RE INSANE
- REALITY
- UNIVERSE
- BYE GOLD (no, not "buy gold")
- EUCLID
- SCALENE
- EUCLYDIA
- RIZZ or FORTNITE
- BABY
- GOD
Also DORITO
What did you do to me
Why is there a zip file on my pc
You get the same result for CRYPTO as RIZZ and FORTNITE
Don't forget theory
@@alexhero64This one is horrifying.
I wouldn’t mind maybe a mini season or more that goes into a more deep depth into bill’s backstory, like what was his world like? Is it like what we theorized? What about his parents? Is bill really back? That would be really cool to see honestly
Vallis Cineris..... Baby... Euclid... Euclydia... Scalene...
I honestly think we won't get a continuation, but more of like a prequal? Something like an epilogue series of Stanford after he got sucked into the portal or maybe even seeing bill's dimension before he destroyed it
Nah we need a spinoff where bill’s henchmaniacs try to find a new life
Either that or something involving the Stans’ adventures on the seas
@@Cubeytheawesome i like the mystery of the what happened next because it feels real.
If you type "SORRY" you get a picture of McGucket and Stanford at University and you can flip the picture to reveal writing on the back by McGucket. He writes about how he was made fun of for his theory of the universe being a hologram, but Stanford backed him up, claiming he would not rest until he proves it.
I refuse to get my hopes up but if Disney actually lets them make another season I’d be so happy
If they make a live action gravity falls movie I would how bill cipher would look like
If there was a little something that showed them all reuniting the following summer that would be fantastic.
This was the most fun I had in years. Reading the book and then going through codes on the site.
I discovered 75% of it myself and then joined the reddit to get the rest.
If you were to ask somebody who is the most important character in gravity falls they would probably say Dipper or Ford but in my opinion it is 100% seuss
Soos is Awesome!🤣
Grunkle stan & Soos supremacy
Nah Bill
i love doctor soos
Saved the site after all! :D😌
I was strangely excited to hear someone else know the word, "polydactyly," I know it because my mom's cat has it, and so does his brother.
We have to learn about polydactyly in the UK for science GCSE lol
11:40 repeatedly type Stanley in the password box and it shows u bill insulting the less smart version of point Dexter
Bill can see us. The book has shown that he knows gravity falls is a show and he was able to see us beyond the screen.
Bill : “Deer teeth for you kid”
Gideon: “Your insane”
Bill : “Sure I am what’s your point”
I SQUEALED AT THE MATPAT CAMEO
(Also giggled on your commentary on said cameo)
I'd love to see a GF movie more than a third season. BUT a season 3 would not be a bad thing in my eyes, nor do I think it'd ruin the first two, not if it's handled well.
But we shall see where all of this goes.
Won't we, Bill? 👀
I think a 3rd season of Gravity Falls should not include Bill's return because that would make season 2 look awkard and less meaningfull.
In general, it is hard to find a nice topic for a 3rd season. Winter would be cool to have a different touch of the universe.
But there could be a Gravity Falls movie at least. About the shapshifter? I guess this would be a small but special oppurtunity to see the guys a little more older, and having another small adventure
11:47 i turned up my brightness and I was able to read the blacked out part. it says "I could kidnap him and bring him to our secret cloning lab" Also I think the part of the date that has the ink stain says 1950 but I'm not entirely sure so take that with a grain of salt
2024: THE YEAR GRAVITY FALLS CAME BACK BABY! 👁️

„Season -1 anti-Gravity falls“
Here’s hoping!
I have a feeling it's supposed to feel like sandpaper, since you know, sandpaper is uncomfortable which is the vibes that this book gives off
It’s also made out of pulverized human grey matter, so yeah.
Note it also had the drawing showing the diagram between our reality and bill’s. I’m just curious if anyone has picked that over yet.
This has to be the most HYPE villain comeback anyone would ever want to witness.
def a million times better than bringing back iron man to play dr doom or whatever they’re trying to do there
The “Why did you do it?” line is driving me insane. I need answers… I NEED THEM!
Putting in Waddles gets you to a pet pig adoption website 🤣
I love the fact that you read Alex's tweets as Grunkle stan XD BRILLIANT
can u remind me what "XD" means?
@@TheInfintyithGoofball probably a silly laugh. The XD looks like a "😆" face
my friend brought the book of bill to school and at the end of the day we walked to the lunch tables and all huddled toghter to read it anytime someone else talked about something other than the book we immediately shushed them and continued reading
For some of these really great shows with in-depth world building, i'd like to see new stories told in the same universe.
Dipper and Mabel's story may be finished, but its a big world and a lot could be done with it.
Wait a minute. Season -1, Antigravity Falls. Taken literally, could possibly imply not a sequel, but a spiritual successor. Like, a “screw you Disney, I’ll make my own show without you” kinda project. Completely separate, new lore, but with all the nerdy stuff Alex Hirsch loves to inject into his projects. Just food for thought.
I found this out because people were posting billford content on tumblr
7:39 good soose impression!
Fr bro
fr bro😮
TJ Eckleburg is found in the book of bill, after you “Get Gatsby’d” several times in the excerpt, the duo traveling to Bill’s (not cypher, a character in TGG) shop is mentioned doing so under a bill board for Eckleburg, namely under his “watchful eye”
If you put in T.J Eckleburg, the computer says "Never mention that name again" because Bill Cipher hates The Great Gatsby
There's a spot you showed after "So Many Questions" where, in the book, a sketch of Soos is asking "How did I get here?"
Sounds like Bill is back in the 2nd dimension and somehow pulled Soos in. Maybe he realized that the Second dimension can lead to the Digital Dimension - AKA: the internet - and is trying to use THAT to make his comeback.
Just a thought coming from a Gravity Falls noob.
“Hey! It’s Mickey Mouse! Just kidding.” -Bill Cipher, 2024
Edit: omg I’m famous
How NOT to draw!
Wow tough crowd
i loved the how not to draw
Lol
Between Bill and Mickey Mouse, I’d choose Bill.
disney uploaded a video of how not to draw and it featured bill and some lore
Edit: how did this comment blow up this never happens btw thank you 😁
Yeah I saw that, I wonder if its hinting at anything...
GUYS HES IN THE REAL WORLD NOW RUN
I can't belive people pretended gravity falls was over for over a decade
If you type "Fiddleford" on the password thingy, you get the music video for "Cotton Eye Joe." Damn.
I love Gravity Falls.
Edit: Thank you all for one hundred likes, I don't think I ever get this much attention lol.
12:38 - Once again MatPat popping up in the most random places after retiring. 😂
Important note: there is a Barnes and noble exclusive version of the book with extra pages/different codes
BRUH
All I have to say about this is:
Disney did not pay the $$$ it would take to set all this up without a return on investment somewhere. If the website lead to the book, I'd say "Okay cool this was their ad campaign to get people to buy the book."
BUT
What we got was the other way around: You can only find the site after you've bought the book, ergo: If the book hadnt sold well, but all this was still set up it be a huge waste of cash. There has to be something that Disney as a for-profit corporation is getting out of this; and as stated it isnt book sales.
So what ARE they building hype for? What is Disney planning to put out that they allowed spending all this money. Weird Al may be cheap relative to disney's pocket book... but even Grunkle Stan would call Disney out for how they are with money.
So no, this is going... somewhere. I wont say to what exactly, but there is something coming of this or Alex Hirsch is somehow a master of getting Disney to open their wallets for no return.
[OPEN YOUR EYES BEYOND THE DOOR, DON'T FORGET THE KEYBLADE WAR]
I remember seeing something on the not website that was basically "if you are in peoples minds, you live forever," and Bill sure is living in peoples minds
Typing in "Vallis cineris" was pretty wierd, what looked to be a baby Bill being held by two staticy triangles asking "why did you do it" 3 times.
Hectoring also plays what sounds like a gospel track so there is that too.
matpats video feels like an ally turning evil and now we are helpless like a playable charachter turning to a boss for the story
Anti-gravity Falls: sounds like the adventures of Stanford while he was exploring it for the first time. Creating the books along with Bill.
We are so back
We’ll meet again - Bill Cipher

That Soos expression was literally amazing. I love that the gravity falls fandom is coming back! Its amazing and im so excited to see what happens
A prequel season with Stan and Ford told in flashback as Stan revives his memories would be awesome.
Bill was not erased slowly in gruncle stans mind in fact he got punched and he got destroyed wich debunks the fact that he might come back
Matpat appearing straight up shocked me, especially when he said we are on are own!
13:11 Jesus christ that was like a wave of existential just hit me.
OMG the Tyler ‘HELLO’ at 4:33 sent me over the edge, can’t stop laughing 😂 |-/
Hey! Someone else noticed! I was afraid I would be the only tøp nerd to hear that.😆
I was looking in the comments for this
YESSS
If you type T. J. Eckleburg in the computer password, it returns "never mention that name again."
The only way bill can be destroyed forever is that circle Stanford drew but gruncle Stan messed it up so it’s possible for him to come back…
“You’re the website now, dude” feels like a subtle nod to “you’re the man now, dog”
Remember when we all thought when Mat-Pat retired, we were never gonna see him again, now we’re seeing him even more than we ever have? 🤣🤣🤣
You know a cool thing i found out that no one talked about the computer on the website showed up in the show itself.
where in the show
@ZortaZert a tale of two stans when Stanley takes to his brother right before their fight.
its cause everybody thinks its mcguckets laptop
Now we have an actual backstory for our buddy Bill. He came from the dimension “euclydia” and had the very rare ability to see into the third dimension aka our world. The other shapes from euclydia didn’t understand what he was talking about when he said directions like “up” or “down”. So he decided to show everyone the third dimension. But he ended up killing everyone in euclydia. He probably blamed himself for everything he did even though he never meant any wrong and eventually ended up as a psychopathic murderer. But deep down he knows that he is a good guy turned back because of the one mistake he made. He misses home and can’t return. He feels guilt about his parents. He is
remember that this show is not referencing anything in the real world so you are safe to engage in these occult practices go ahead fun for the whole family !!
“Hey! It’s Mickey Mouse! Just kidding.” -Bill Cipher.
12:16 oh my god, he made a deal with Bill to become a famous musician and Bill owns his soul!
Has anyone noticed that the symbol on the back of the book is different than it was in the show? I haven’t seen anyone talk about this. Could it be big or am I just overlooking things?
14:33 feels more like a prequel without the twins than a season three if anything at all
As a teenager who has played still wakes the deep and gone searching the deepest darkest corners for ARGs, I aint taking no age rating serious unless its the terrorizer
'-1 antigravity fall' could be a prequel set in the realm Stanley was trapped into before the event of gravity falls
Stanford, no?
I'll admit, I have been curious what Ford's dimensional adventures looked like. It's giving Rick and Morty energy sans the most interesting par where we actually get to see crazy multiversal mind bending adventures. On one hand, it might be one of those things where its' better left a mystery since anything I could imagine might be cooler than what they could write and animate, but if Hirsch came back with a new series and was confident in the product he wants to present us, well I'd be seated.
he traveled with rick from rick and morty so they wouldnt do that or atleast, not those parts of the story I guess
"dead show"
disney: "I CAST THEE BACK UP HERE"
ALEX HIRSH*
FR THO
if you type dipper over and over again you see a black sheet of paper LOL
I don’t want a continuation but I would LOVE a spin off that’s just about Bill and his antics throughout history
With this demon triangle ahh book, more fans than ever screamed their hearts out with a triumphant *”SEAOSN 3 CONFIRMED!”* but I agree that we don’t need it. Maybe a little extra season that showcases the wacky stuff that happened after they left. Maybe a season dedicated to show what stanfords been doing asides from a book
welp- were all screwed, disney just brought bill into the 3rd dimension with their new video
its not over yet I expect much more to come from this since we expected the website to be the last of it 0-0
I personally think if there is any new big things being made at most it could be a spin-off or a movie
I think a movie adaptation in 2d animation would be the most likely in my opinion
If u write any bad thing like fuck or others it will give you a soap note
The fact that “season 1” gives the output “season -1” makes me think there’s a prequel in the works
*We'll meet againnn,don't know where and don't know whennn!!!!*
Putting “tad strange” in the computer pulls up a video of bread.
