Said T-Rex was a callback to Land Before the Swine, too.

Probably disappeared along with Rumble, etc.

Well, at the end she did give them birthday presents and sign the card. Still a very inconsistent portrayal of her in this episode, unfortunately.

"I have some children I need to turn into CORPSES!"

Very true, looking at the clock I was like "TEN minutes still? Holy fuck that's rare."

Remember when Hirsch said Disney forced him to cut out a same-sex reference in the Love God? Glad things changed.

Either way, it was better it wasn't the solution. "Ancient people of Gravity Falls" out of nowhere, just would have felt really cheap. And of course Ford would have been the savior again which would have been thematically wrong.

Solid finale, but I think I would have wanted Stanley to suffer with his memory a bit more long term than what we got. I mean the resolution was sweet, but it sacrifices the consequences needed to defeat Bill after the Stans couldn't get the Zodiac Wheel to work.

At least four

I think Hirsch is intentionally trying to disguise it's the end of the series (as much as he can) for dramatic effect

It was interesting how Ford takes the route he's fully in control in - his galactic weapon - when he's implied to have at least a lead on the way Bill will probably be taken down, probably involving the wheel. Ford still has a lot to learn as a character (that he might never learn, we'll see).

"Kid, unicorns can't see into your heart. All our dumb horns can do is glow, point towards the nearest rainbow, and play rave music." *horn plays a rave*

Next ep is the 21st at 8pm, bit different! :P

Probably not, considering unicorns' mystique is crushed in this episode.

Bill seems to be everywhere throughout "history", see this episode to understand more

"Man, I'm really good at rationalizing."
"Yes you are Yes you are Yes you are…"

Based on info on the book that came out last year, it's going to be the mayor.

Interesting how many little hints at Stanley Alex confirmed as intentional here.

I think his point is that an excellent plot is left hollow if the characters are poorly developed. It's the excellent character interaction/development that complements the plot. All the investment in the characters comes to a head in the last five minutes of this episode.

Why 17 times? Good lord.
