Oh I know it's a shitty reason. But damn it, she's a voice actor! Why couldn't she use a different voice?!?!
Also, Brian on Family Guy is just Seth McFarlane’s natural voice. |

Good lort, don’t watch Bob’s Burgers and Archer because you won’t be happy.
Seriously though, could you imagine if the Spongebob actor used Spongebob's voice in another, completely unrelated cartoon? That's about how bizarre this seems to me. Anyway, sorry to derail the thread, I do know a lot of people love Gravity Falls, and from what I've seen of random episodes it does seem really well done. |
Re: Gravity Falls - Disney Chanel
I get where Joeblow is coming from. I hate that DreamWorks and animated flicks (Shrek in particular) ushered in the demise of truly great voice actors in favor of having an actor's name on the poster. Most actors simply provide their voice which is okay until they start doing more and more voice roles.
BUT, Mabel is amazing. You gotta get over that hump. |

I usually skip the Louise-centered episodes of Bob's Burgers. (especially when she starts yelling :suicide: ) I haven't seen Archer in years, but don't recall hearing that voice.

You really need to give Gravity Falls a chance. |

Re: Gravity Falls - Disney Chanel
It's great seeing this thread here. Gravity Falls not only holds up but is one of the best animated series ever. It might actually be time for a rewatch....

Re: Gravity Falls - Disney Chanel
Fantastic stuff ...

Re: Gravity Falls - Disney Chanel
Wow. That's simultaneously crappy and awesome. I wonder if things have been relaxed a bit in some areas, considering the content of newer shows like Owl House.

Re: Gravity Falls - Disney Chanel
Dan, that has to be one of the funniest things I have clicked on in ages. Gravity Falls is such a wonderful show that it will still be considered a classic 20 years from now and be discovered by an entirely new generation of viewers.
It still amazes me to this day how incredible this show was, and for me at least I was not all too familiar (during the shows first run on tv) with the folks who voiced the characters but felt it was spot on voice casting for the characters. If the voice casting for Mabel and Dipper was a bit off, it would have impacted my overall enjoyment of the series. |
Re: Gravity Falls - Disney Chanel
This was an incredible show, it really could have run longer, but as it stands it's a tight and focused story that gets in and says what it needs to say and that's it.

Re: Gravity Falls - Disney Chanel
The S&P notes are hilarious in their ridiculousness.
I'm extremely glad we stumbled across this show on Disney+. I'd been completely unaware of it and my sons wanted to watch it a couple years ago. It was on in the background and slowly started catching my and my wife's attention and drawing us in. By now, we've watched the whole run as a family 3 or 4 times and have caught individual episodes a lot more than that. To me, it's a shining example of perfect family entertainment, written on such a superb level that it really works for any age group. |
Re: Gravity Falls - Disney Chanel
Anyone buy the recent box set?
Someone on Twitter says there’s a surprise included but wouldn’t say what it was so not to spoil it for anyone. Just wondering what it might be. |
Re: Gravity Falls - Disney Chanel
^ recent? Only box set I see is from 2018... unless you're talking about the graphic novel...

Apparently not. My copy only came with the discs in a nice box, but nothing else at all.

It's just unusual that we found out so early. |
