>write a fun adventure about kids having fun with creatures in the forest with cyphers and mysteries and shit>create a bunch of beloved characters>completely ruin the episodic, localized fun by making the characters face off against massive threats that they wouldn't survive like giant robots, zombie apocalypses and the fucking FBI>ruin Mabel by making her an egocentric piece of shit>ruin Stan by making him be constantly grumbling and doing nothing interesting until the end plus he has no more secrets after his reveal despite being Mr Mystery, owner of the Shack who is super shady (>B-BUT THE ACTUAL OWNER WAS FORD CHUD, STAN WAS A FUCKING LOSER)>ruin Ford by making him an interdimensional traveller badass rather than a fun quirky nerd>ruin Bill by making him a traumatized demon who went all around the earth creating cults and forcing people to make portals and making him start an apocalypse and literally want to torture and kill people (this isn't who Bill was in his debut and lacks his charm)>ruin the mystery of the journals once Ford comes back>ignore the mysteries in the town itself>create Pacifica as a perfect character foil for Dipper but ignore her cause "kids shouldn't be dating" (kids dating is worse than making jokes about cult mass suicides), literally has no relevance after NMM and even has roadtrip episode destroy her and Dipper's arc entirely>ruin shit further with the book of bill edgeslop>get no more show contracts and rotHirsch is a fucking retard who couldn't keep his show in check. If GF had stayed more relaxed and mysterious it would have been perfect.
>>155676023>but ignore her cause "kids shouldn't be dating"Yet it's okay to simp for chicks older than you, even if they aren't interested? Weird message...
>>155676023It’s just retarded bullshit with a cover of “lore” and “mystery”
>>155676045What this anon said.I tried to rewatch it but... It just wasn't the same, it is one of those "Watch and forget" type of shows
>>155676062I've thought about rewatching it myself, but I also know it has TONS of filler. Thankfully I already know the most important plot points of each season.>Season 1>Lil' Ol' Gideon>Season 2>Bill Cipher>Maaaaaaaaaaaybe FordAny episode that doesn't involve these characters is a waste of time.
>>155676062First season and parts of second is goodGF is at its best when its episodic and somewhat toned down or at least funnyIt becomes gay as shit when it starts thinking its so clever with longer bigger plotlines, weirdmageddon sucks ass and shouldn't have been the finaleAlso S2 was obviously rushed, Ford gets four or less episodes to shine
Wasn't it basically meant to be kids X-Files?
>>155676091>Ford gets four or less episodes to shineHuh, explains why I put him in the "maybe" camp. Sounds like Bill really WAS the star of S2.
>>155676023Doomed? It did really well.
>>155676023>NMMWhat does Nightmare Moon have to do with this?
>>155676109Like I said in the OP S2 Bill isn't BillHe isn't the fun character from Dreamscaperers, he's an edgelord shithead and boring as fuck only saved by being hammy>>155676116Don't care about what it did, mean the quality
>>155676116Keyword being "did", and (unfortunately) it's all Hirsch will ever be known for. He could've finished the show he was working on at Netflix, but he couldn't even do that.
>>155676141Alex lacks the talent to even be at Netflix despite them hiring literal DEI fags. He's a parasite
>>155676023bro the show ending a fucking decade ago. move on, get a life
