Nice "leaked finale episode" last thread.

>>78070896
I didn't read it, but screen capped it, I'd honestly be surprised if it actually true. I remember one time someone posted to the Avatar/Korra subreddit before the finale and claimed to have watched it and only gave a few details and they all turned out to be true.

>>78070931
A few times I've seen fake spoilers of whole episodes where a few or even a lot of details turned out to be true, just because it's often easy to guess a lot using common sense and paying attention to teasers and such.

I have heard of a couple cases where someone really did spoiler something ahead of time (didn't that happen with the last Harry Potter book?) but usually they're fake.

>>78071166

Dipper insults a girl, then impresses her, and comes out of it with the moral high ground. That's definitely enough to annoy somebody. Didn't someone have a fanart with dipper and mabel and the phrase "the horrible heterosexual children"? Padippica is too heterosexual for tumblr.

Also, padippica suddenly became huge once it happened. So the true way is for dipper to dominate pacifica, not the other way around fyi.

Too bad it seems pretty boring. And even though Alex says that they shouldn't be focusing on romance, he still continues Pacifica x Dipper. Not that it's a bad thing I guess. Dipper deserves it if it's real.

>>7807453

Too bad they can't, seeing as they're full of shit. A semi-public test screening of a popular TV series' finale. Really?

Guys, Wendy's the llama. We know from Alex that Pacifica wasn't important at the planning stages. Personally, I think that Candy's the glasses, and Grenda's the ICE bag, but that's all speculation. But I'm sure that Paz isn't the llama.

The axe even represents Wendy in the take back the falls promo in the flag. She's the warrior.

I don't think so. There's way, way too much happening for one episode, for one. But it's also filled with "fuck yeah" fan wish fulfillment moments like Padippica pandering, the Stan 'O War, etc. that frankly aren't gonna happen. Face it: you'll wish the finale is as interesting.

What will actually happen:

- Moderately funny to unfunny jokes
- Extended cast does nothing but stand in the background
- Dipper makes a friendship speech
- Mabel is lolrandumb
- five second resolution of Ford and Stan relationship
- fuckton of things unresolved and unanswered
- Deus ex Machina beats Bill
- super rushed goodbye
- The End

What, did you expect the drive to become relevant again at some point? Too bad, that's part of the scrapped Gompers backstory episode.

My biggest fear about the finale is that they'll kill Bill off in part 3 and the entirety of part 4 focuses on the aftermath

We saw his hair look a little less cartoony in Dipper and Mabel vs a The Future, when it was blowing in the wind.

Also this came with the DVDs, so it's definitely not curly.

So maybe medium length, thick and messy?

I mean, tumblr shit aside, the person made the image isn't wrong. For a couple of 12 year olds, there is a ungodly amount of time in the show devoted to assuring us just how much Dipper and Mabel crave the opposite sex's attention.

Imagine what the show could have been if Alex actually stuck by what he said about '12 year olds shouldn't be focusing on romance', and we cut out Mabel's crush-of-the-week plots and wendip plots, and replaced it with better shit, like Ford interacting more with Stan and Mabel, more Ford in general, actual character development for Mabel and Wendy, more Mcgucket, a much less shitty resolution for Robbie, post-NMM Pacifica interacting with the twins for an episode, etc.

>>78077764

Why not both except for the fact that would make you a super pedoabuser who should go to jail.

>>78077709
But that makes it realistic and atractive. And in fanfics the "violence" is secretly enjoyed by dipper. I think. Only human bill..the triangle would be weird

>>78077834

Pretty much, yeah. It's sad that such a vocal minority has such a huge influence on the community over there. It's full of a lot of really talented, creative artists, but a lot of them censor themselves and hide all of their porn/problematic shit for fear of being harassed and doxxed. I've had people call me a pedophile for wanting to commission aged up Mabifica smut, and it's ridiculous, because if I wanted to see children fucking, I'd commission children fucking, not adults.

It's sad that a lot of artists I know refuse to draw genderbends, when it's not actually transphobic. Without turning this into a blogpost, the person that I'm dating is trans, and they absolutely love genderbends. It's all we rp together, and half of what they draw. But we won't post any of that on tumblr, because of how rabid the crowd over there gets if you disagree with the most popular discourse.

>>78078442
Bill is a cartoon triangle and Dipper and Mabel are cartoon characters played and written by adults who (like most cartoon kids) don't act like real kids, it's pretty ridiculous. But according to some people even watching or liking kids' cartoons makes you a pedophile so I don't know anymore. It's best just to ignore them. I think they just want to be angry about something.

I do agree that in the event of a being a trillion years old 12 vs. 65 years or something wouldn't make a bit of difference though, it'd be the smallest fraction of an eyeblink.

Yeah it's to the point where even people who agree with progressive/sj stuff in general are annoyed by it, partly because you can never win, everything everyone does is offensive. It's mostly a self contained echo chamber but might do a teeny bit of harm by turning some people off to good ideas.

>>78078554
I wonder if that'd matter if fanartists would portray Bill as a child/teen visually (despite acting like a teen anyway)? in fanfics, Bill is usually introduced as this dark-sexlord that acts all smooth and evil, and even though I kinda think it's cool, he's as a character is so much the extreme opposite lol...) Would that still matter/count as pedophilia to tumblr?

I just want to know if it's about Bill x anyone or just Bill x kid!dipper.

How does tumblr react to Bill x Ford?

>>78078554
Eh, I'd disagree. It's not the relative age difference that matters, it's that Dipper and Mabel are still kids, and their brains are still developing. Once they hit somewhere between 17-21 they're adults and the pedophilia thing doesn't apply, even though there's still a huge ass age difference, and there's still a power imbalance in Bill's favor as a result.

Still, though, I think all of these people who are going on moral crusades against pedo/incest/abusive ships need to take a step back and reorient themselves. It's all fiction. It's someone you don't even know on the internet writing/drawing kinky shit. It's not worth getting your jimmies rustled over. There's a difference between a child molester and a pedophile. There's a difference between a rapist and someone who has kinky fantasies.

I actually think pedo shit is really creepy and I'm not a fan, but I don't feel the need to lecture people in this thread who post pedo shit. As long as they understand that molesting real kids is a felony and quite possibly the single worst crime a human being is capable of committing, I don't see the harm. I'd rather people masturbate to Dipper and Mabel getting raped to get those kinds of urges satisfied than to turn to harming an actual child to satisfy those urges.

Dipper and Mabel aren't real, and as a result they don't need protected from real life pedophiles. If tumblr was actually interested in helping real victims of child sexual abuse, they'd be raising money for the cause instead of screaming at strangers on the internet.

>>78078719
>How does tumblr react to Bill x Ford?

A bunch of people like it but of course there's been a few loudmouths lately complaining about how abusive it is.

I have seen a few posts about how shipping Bill with anyone is bad and even seen a few people claim that Bill is 'canonly asexual and shipping erasure' despite the ama pretty much indicating the opposite.

>I just want to know if it's about Bill x anyone or just Bill x kid!dipper.

According to the most vocal, loud anti-shippers it doesn't matter if you age the characters up. They could be 90-year-olds in the art/story and it's still pedophilia.

Also, any kind of incest is child sexual abuse, even if the two characters shipped are adults IN CANON. This is used regularly against Stancest, Elsanna, and lots of other pairings. Even if the characters are old and never shown as children, if you ship it, you're a pedophile.

In fact, aged-up Paddipica and Mabifica are also pedophilia according to, yes, real tumblr posts I've seen. The rationale seems to be that you wouldn't ship the kid characters at all, even with other kids, if you weren't a pedophile.

Basically, there's no way to win with them.

I should stress this isn't everyone on tumblr and a lot of people disagree with them/see them as tumblr cancer, they're just really loud and persistent lately and have a growing "anti-shipping" community that spends all day spamming multiple pairing tags from every show under the sun with rants.

>How does tumblr react to Bill x Ford?

It's abusive, if you ship it at all you're condoning and supporting real life abusive relationships.

If one of the characters was ever mean to the other, it's an abuse-supporting ship.

Paddipica is also abuse because Pacifica "abused" Dipper and Mabel.

Because every Gravity falls ship is pedoabuse.

A really nice summary of what's been going on.

To be honest, it's high time that the tumblr community as a whole jumped ship and moved to another website for hosting fandom content. The tricky part about this would be finding a suitable replacement website, and keeping the batshit crazy portion of the community confined to tumblr instead of just moving with everyone else.

Doesn't the show itself show how """abusive""" Bill and Ford's relationship was? Consider that it was mostly, canonly, based on obsession from Ford's side, and also, heavily implied consensual (Ford gave the bottom line and agreed to give Bill whatever he wants), it's less of an abusive relationship, more like unhealthy really. But this is what the show canonly has. People are going to have opinions about it, but some people are going to love it mindlessly.

People still, to this day, love Joker's and Harley's relationship regardless of how 'abusive' it was. Harley wanted this, so did Ford

And who cares what Bill's sexuallity is, or anyone

In fiction characters can be whatever the writer/artist decides they will be

I wish people did not hate Robbie so much. I miss drawing him. I miss him on the show. I guess everyone hating him so much made them write him out of the show. I'm starting to think its more because he's emo-goth than anything else. If he had looked like one of the blonde dudes from several times and had been really dull and mainstream i'm sure people would have loved him. Oh well.

>>78078996
I used to like him but The Love God completely ruined the character for me.

>People still, to this day, love Joker's and Harley's relationship regardless of how 'abusive' it was.

I've actually seen tumblr rants about how awful creating and depicting a relationship like Joker and Harley is, and how triggering the old cartoon is.

I'm only expecting them to increase in frequency once the new Suicide Squad movie comes out.

There's also this "depiction is endorsement" argument that having villains or morally questionable characters or conflict at all is bad, and we should adhere to some supposedly superior conflict free style of storytelling from another country, I can't remember which one. To provide a "safe space" for survivors.

>>78078996
Eh, I don't think Robbie is that bad of a character. Once he grows out of this phase he's in (I mean in terms of personality, not fashion sense), he'll probably be much more tolerable to those around him.

>>78078868
This is just so weird... I use tumblr but I mostly follow artists and cooking/funny gifs/pinterest like blogs... I rarely, if ever see the fandom drama about these things and only recently I've learned what 'SJW' means lol To some extent these things intrigue me because I can't understand why would people invest so much time thinking/becoming angry about these matters... There's so many other things to think about, it really all is just a form of art

>Paddipica is also abuse because Pacifica "abused" Dipper and Mabel.

??????
There's a thick line between teasing and acting cocky and "abusing" someone, that's just not fair

>>78079133

You mostly see it if you search some of the pairing tags. I actually heard about the drama before I actually saw Gravity Falls or Steven Universe. I think I expected them to be edgy grimdark cartoons because of it, obviously they're not.

You can avoid it easily if you follow people who aren't crazy or block the crazy users though. But for certain tags new crazy blogs keep popping up.

The drama got so bad that there was a big dustup over Steven Universe fan art. One of the Steven Universe creators and Alex got involved. They basically said that censorship of the kind some people on tumblr are advocating is bad, antithetical to creativity/creating art and that made certain people more angry and they made blogs about how awful the GF and SU creators are.

>>78079133
While I don't use my tumblr account much, I'm in a similar situation. The places I haunt tend to be low-drama areas. From what I've seen, the type of "SJW" rage that can breed there reminds me most of what I've seen in highly polarized political websites and comment sections (help me for ever taking a look at that shit in the first place). It's like a hybrid of both the extreme right and left, and all the irrationality, ire, ugliness that it stirs.

>>78079081
Survivors of what?! Supervillian attacks? Can you say detached from reality

>>78079122
I get the feeling he is how he is because of the typical shit we all deal with in high school where you have to put on a front and be someone you are not just to avoid teasing and all the bullshit of high school. i think he would actually be more goth or punk if anything but he's flirting with it and doing the approved toned down emo version to remain cool or under the radar since almost everyone wears skinny jeans and similar hairstyles now. I think Robbie's biggest problem is himself. He cares way too much about what other people think and it thwarts his own happiness.

>>78079055
To me fair that is kinda mostly Mabel pulling a Bill Cosby on him with a love potion and forcing him to be with someone he never loved. that was just so creepy. I am not sure what was more creepy,what Mabel did or the fact me and Tumblr agreed on something for once. Though never again thereafter.

From what I've seen out of all the ships Tumblr deems problematic Billford gets the least shit. Of course there's probably the usual crowd that cries about how it's abusive and you're the scum of the earth if you like it, though to be honest I have yet to see someone say that about Billford in particular. I suppose most of the crybabies are too busy focusing on shitting on ships that are more than one kind of problematic at the same time like Padippica which is both pedophilia AND abuse. Somehow.

Speaking of, that Billford pic you posted a few threads ago was god-tier. Thanks for drawing for us, Dominica.

I remember seeing ones a post on tumblr/here about the moment where Ford calls Dipper to come quickly in D&MvsTF, and it ends up being just Ford """manipulated""" Dipper (as being said by the person) into hurrying up and obliging. They made it sound like Ford is in a position of a bad person, forcing Dipper to do things by messing with his empathy.

Characters are meant to be flawed, Ford was intended to be a sociopath and an egocentric man. He is so to reflect contrast on the more straight forward Stanley that is ironically more truthful and more emotionally captive than what his brother is. So to me it was not about Ford "manipulating" anyone as the person claimed. Ford would've acted the same even if it was not for Dipper. It is to show Ford is a crazed looney.

The problem is when people take such characters and attach such meanings to them, projecting their fears and troubles to insignificant things. "Manipulation" and "abuse" was mostly relevant to specific characters, like Bill and Ford (manipulation) and Pacifica and her parents (Abuse).

In short, in my opinion, Billdip is not 'abusive', unless the writer/artist wants so. Same goes with Billford and Mabifica or Dipcifica etc... And as for pedophilia in these contexts, it's non existent unless the material is explicitly and directly shows that. I am not a big fan of Child!dipper and Bill things either... But calling aged up Dipper and Bill pedophilia is absurd to me.

>>78079903
Not that I remember lol

hehe...manlet

>>78080562
Ford did manipulate Dipper. Hes a creepy uncle that shouldn't be left in a room alone with kids. It's a good thing Dipper didnt fall for the apprenticeship ruse. Remember he's kicking out Stan and shutting down the shack so there is no Stan, Soos, or Wendy to save Dipprt.
If Ford didnt plan to chester him he'd do something even worse like stealing his body with the carpet to extend his own life span.

>>78080562

I'm actually really uncomfortable looking at anything even borderline lewd with kids, even in cartoons, in fact it disgusts me more than anything else (I try my best to ignore it here). BUT. If the characters are aged up, I just can't understand what the problem is. Everyone you've dated was a kid once, your parents were kids once but apparently had sex eventually or you wouldn't be here, it doesn't make any sense.

I kinda remember hearing Ford "triggered" people but it's kinda sad that cartoon shows need warnings because they have flawed characters or scary events?

Nah, Ford's not evil, or even a bad guy, really. Just egocentric (as Dominica pointed out) and living in his own little world. He'd never intentionally hurt Dipper, not do I consider what we've seen so far to be manipulation. He does, however, lack common sense and may very well expose Dipper to dangerous situations inappropriate for a soon-to-be-13 year old.

Yeah, he did, but my point was is that it was necessary, and that people took it to completely different levels. Ford /is/ a dangerous guy, but only because he has no regards to others well beings. Manipulating Dipper at this moment is essentially harmless. People made more noise about this scene then the one where he proposes him apprenticeship. I think this one is my favorite scene in the show because it has so many writing qualities I could spot, like Dipper's insecurity reflecting visually in the alien spaceship as Ford's image distorts to be bigger and stronger. Also how Ford is basically mimicking, perhaps unknowingly what Bill did to him, projecting everything he feels and carried from his past into Dipper. This part was actually Ford manipulating someone. Calling someone to hurry up hysterically? Not such a big deal in my opinion. At least not in a 'triggering' sense like people made it to be

>>78080729

I'm not a fan of pedophilia or shotacon in particular. I mostly draw/like fanarts involving these ironically. I want to shock my friends or make them laugh.

> it's kinda sad that cartoon shows need warnings because they have flawed characters or scary events?

In one interview Justin Roiland pointed out this issue. He simply said his show is his art and just because he makes it doesn't mean the opinions or events happening in the show are reflecting his own opinions or what he believes in to be ideal. If people feel bad about watching a show that consists material that makes them feel bad, it's just simple not to watch it. Addressing to the creator to change it so it'd fit their own ideals is just not going to work

Eh, it might be what happened, but Dipper and Mabel aren't copy paste inserts of Alex and Ariel, and the show shouldn't treat them as such. Are you honestly going to tell me that you believe that Mabel's crush of the week plots were interesting and improve the show? Also Wendip is pointless and goes nowhere. Even if I do love fics and fanart where Wendip happens...(I remember being young and sweaty and having crushes on much older girls) I have to acknowledge that it reaches a point in the show where it's just beating a dead horse.

Mabel and Dipper having crushes is fine. But it becomes annoying when it dominates the plot in a lot of episodes, even though we all know that they're 12, and it's going nowhere. I don't really care for hackposting, but I do feel that Alex dropped the ball in this regard. It would be much better if Alex stuck to that thing he said about '12 year olds shouldn't focus on romance, they should focus on poptarts and pokemon'.

>>78082667

Also, on the topic of pokemon, I'd kill for an episode about a Monstermon card game tournament. We see that Candy is very interested in Monstermons in the DS game. Dipper and Candy could have a rivalry. Grenda is Candy's couch/cheerleader and Mabel is Dipper's couch/cheerleader. Perhaps Mabel and Dipper find some supernatural way to cheat, and have to decide if it's right to be dishonest like that. If they put it after episodes like the Stanchurian candidate and the Last Mabelcorn, it could be a lead in to some character development with Mabel realizing that she needs to make good choices to be a good person. E.I.: Not manipulating like in SC and not doing good things only because it benefits you like in TLM.

You're missing the point of his statement. He's saying they *shouldnt* focus on romance, which is exactly what the kids learn through their failed romances. In both instances, the kids try and fail, and the lesson is exactly what Hirsch describes in that quote. You can say you didn't like episodes like Sock Opera or Into The Bunker because you don't like a focuson romance, but you can call him hypocritical for telling stories that support his statement on childhood. (Also for my tastes those two romance-themed episodes were some of the best of the series)

I suppose so. It just seems hypocritical to me that this man mocks shippers on twitter... For shipping things in a show he created, that is constantly pandering to shipfags.

Sock Opera was very good, but Mabel's obsession with sock-puppet-prick wasn't what made Sock Opera worth remembering.

You've got me with Into the Bunker, though. The episode actually had enough going on it that I don't feel the wendip took away from it. It did a good job of driving home what you said, that kids should let themselves be kids while they still can, instead of trying to grow up too fast and obsessing over crushes, while also developing the plot and introducing the shapeshifter. Oh boy, I really hope those spoilers are true and that he makes an appearance in the finale.

I don't understand why people find it modernized and more cultured to force 'trigger warnings' and push 'social righteousness' into every single existing thing in the media. Some things are going to involve stereotypes. Some things are going to involve violence and rape, politically incorrectness, sexism and racism... Most of these things can be viewed objectively, and they do not address to anyone personally. Some things were created to be provoking or extreme for a reason, and there's nothing wrong about it. Imagining a world that has a trigger-filter onto everything makes me sad. Everyone's work and art would give the same feeling.

In relation to GF, I find pinecest and billdip to be the most provoking things this fandom created. And the picture it creates is very mild and goes unnoticeable. People who like these things know where to find it. It took me a while until I figured out where to find the real nasty side of this fandom. Most fanarts are incredibly sweet, even the pinecests'. People who become triggered by either pinecest/billdip must have a reason. But to me, they're just a type of interest the fandom created like any other fandom, it's normal to pair characters. And it's fiction, so things are supposed to be taken a bit more light heartedly and in a humourous approach, in my opinion.

Theres a difference between telling stories about failed childhood attempts at relationships and "pandering to shipfags." Hirsch seems to hate shippers because they reduce the show to a competition about hypothetical endgames, when as we see his intent was never to create "couples" but rather to create conflict and teach the characters lessons. (Whether you like those episodes or not is a separate thing)

>>78083340
You've got a level-head, Dominica, never change. So many people on tumblr need to understand that there's a difference between something happening in real life, and someone making a piece of art or a story that involves that this.

>Imagining a world that has a trigger-filter onto everything makes me sad

I don't think this has to be a bad thing, though.

With regards to tumblr's culture, over there there's an argument that things should come with 'trigger warnings', and I feel that that's a concept that a lot of people over here misunderstand, because it's not a bad idea at its core. The basis of it is that if you are going to post questionable content, like rape, or sexual content involving a child, you should tag it '#noncon' or '#underage'. There's a thing called 'X-kit' on tumblr, and one of the features is a blacklist. You add a word to the blacklist, and then X-kit hides or removes posts containing that word or hashtag. Using this, if everyone tags their questionable posts appropriately, a person who doesn't want to see rape or loli/shota can simply blacklist the appropriate hashtags, and enjoy using tumblr without having to look at content that could 'trigger' them. (1/2)

>>78083852
Personally, I think that this system makes a fuckton of sense. People who are actually rape victims and have PTSD don't have to look at content that could bring up memories of their abuse, and people who are simply uncomfortable with rape don't have to look at it. Plus, people who like rape-y fetish art can search the term and easily find what they want. It's a win-win, in which both people who want to post and seek out questionable content are empowered to do so, and people who want to avoid questionable content have the means to do that.

The problem arises when certain groups on tumblr want to replace trigger warnings with censorship, which is indeed horrifying. Instead of 'please tag your Billdip so I don't have to view it when browsing the gravity falls tag', it becomes 'YOU'RE AN ACTUAL CHILD MOLESTER IF YOU POST THIS! I DEMAND THAT EVERY POST ON THIS WEBSITE CATER TO MY PREFERENCES! STOP POSTING ANYTHING MORALLY QUESTIONABLE!!'. That's censoring an artist's right to expression, and that's just wrong. (2/2)

Ah, you've got a fair point there about Alex's intentions. People who argue and obsess over if Padippica or Wendip will be 'canon' are annoying, because it doesn't really matter, it's just shipping. It will always exist, whether or not it becomes official in the show.

Still, I think that the romance subplots get stale after a while, and we could do with less of them.

Really? Well, personal preferences I suppose. I won't begrudge you that.

I find it repetitive and grating. But then again, I am watching a kid's cartoon, so I suppose I should just take it in stride.

I'm mostly just disappointed about all the what ifs that could have happened if we had gotten a season 3. This lead me to thinking about what could have been cut out in seasons 1 or 2 to make room for all the things that I was looking forward to that don't seem likely to happen in the finale, and the repetitive romance plots was the first thing that jumped out at me as mediocre and disposable.

You're right, though, even the romance plots that I feel are total bullshit have some A+ humor in them. Love God was terrible, but 'I Heart Kids' still makes me chuckle.

It's kind of a testament to how well done the show that even the things that I dislike really aren't all that terrible, just not up to the standard of 'super good' that the show has made me come to expect.

>>78085232

Nothing needed I guess.

>>78085357
Where does the background come from, though?

>>78085232
Not much, to be honest, I think the Mabel hate train is more of a stupid meme than anything, albeit with some legitimate criticisms sprinkled in.

I'd like to see Mabel have more agency than having to be talked out of the bubble by Dipper. She needs to confront for herself that she cannot stay in stasis forever just because she's happy where she is, and that having your every whim fulfilled is not realistic, without being prodded by Dipper.

As for what I'd like to see happen in the finale, I think that she should make some sacrifice for Dipper, because the power of sibling love, etc, without being basically guilt-tripped into it by Bill. It would be meaningful, and show that she loves Dipper as much as he loves her, despite the fact that she can sometimes be a bit cruel in the teasing department.

>Also Wendip is pointless and goes nowhere.

I think the real problem with Wendip is that a lot of fans were looking at the subplot in the wrong light. Some of that can be attributed to iffy writing, but mostly, it says more about the unrealistic expectations of certain fans.

It was easy to read the subplot as a "will they or won't they" sort of ship-tease, where the writers were toying with the audience on whether they'd get together. Naturally, that sort of soap opera-like baiting gets tiresome after a while. You just want the characters to either fuck, or get over it. It really is pointless.

The thing is, though, we were never meant to believe Dipper had a chance with Wendy. Alex's intention was always to show it as a hopeless puppy crush on the babysitter. It's borne out in everything from their character designs (Dipper is literally half her size) to Wendy's seeming obliviousness to Dipper's intentions (she doesn't even see him as a prospect). That sort of pairing is common enough in wish fulfillment-y manga and anime geared towards pandering to teen boys, but that's not the kind of story Alex set out to tell.

But it wasn't necessarily a dead end sub-plot just because Dipper was doomed to fail from the beginning. Along the way, it showed us a lot about Dipper's problem solving abilities, morality, and personal priorities. And from season 1 to season 2, Dipper's attitude has matured thanks to his experiences, as was highlighted in his speech to Gideon.

I'd go so far as to argue that Wendip is one of the few subplot that actually had decent payoff from start to finish. Certainly more so than Mabel's romances, which never really prompted her to grow as a person. And we got a lot of great episodes out of it. Double Dipper, TTP, and Into the Bunker are some of my favourites.

Eh. The writing team is at fault for failing to deliver satisfying development.

Like >>78085516 pointed out (good post, by the way), Mabel's lack of agency, especially in Escape from Reality, really hurt her as a character. After the ending of D&MvtF, they had an opportunity to let Mabel learn from her past mistakes, and show her proactively trying to save herself (and Dipper, by extension). It would have been a nice coda to the events of The Hand that Rocks the Mabel and Sock Opera.

Instead, she developed selective amnesia (and also selective deafness, apparently) and the episode became all about showcasing Dipper's struggles instead.

>I half expected Dipper to be found guilty and only then would Mabel snap out of her crazy brainwashing

I know what you mean. There was sort of a moment like that when he was about to be thrown out of the bubble initially, so maybe it would have been repetitive. But I kept expecting Mabel to object to the trial's premise since the whole point of her intervention was to keep Dipper with her. The options were either a) Mabel wins; Dipper gets banished or b) Dipper wins; Mabel returns to reality, so the scenario was lose/lose for Mabel.

Come to think of it, the trial might've been more interesting if Mabel, after realizing Dipper was in serious danger, played the role of his defense lawyer instead. Seeing her work with him, in spite of how insecure she felt, to remember all the good things they'd done for each other, would have showcased Mabel's growth better and reaffirmed their bond equally well.

And Dippy Fresh could have taken over the prosecution's side, or something.

I liked Melody as a character and didn't think her inclusion hurt the episode, but I agree she wasn't really necessary.

It would have worked just as well if Soos became uncomfortable with Giffany's stalking and controlling behaviour on his own. Sure, he wouldn't have had a date for the party in the end. But he'd come away from the experience with the lesson that letting other people dictate how you live your life just leads to unhappiness. When I was watching it for the first time, that was actually the outcome I expected: that he'd end up dateless, but more secure about himself.

Why do people like this garbage? As someone from /tv/, this show is unfunny trash. What happened to the cartoons of my childhood? What happened to:

Admit it: you only like this because you want to diddle the boy and the girl. All this show reminds me, is an era when networks actually cared about the quality of their shows. When cartoons were meant for both children AND adults, instead of specifically targeting at the former. They had innuendos and adult jokes that went over kids' heads. People used to care about their craft once.

Now? All we have is lolsorandumb shit, trying to half-assedly aim at kids with fart jokes and toilet humor. I remember having a discussion with my family during dinner one day about this decline in animation. We were watching an Adventure Time promo, and we all groaned. It lead to a great discussion about 90's cartoons and movies.

Bottom line, this shit sucks. Television nowadays is run by hacks who don't care. That's all.

>>78087541
>at least she's pretty much a one off character
That's what I find horrible. From her first appearance it was obvious she was going to be for this episode only, because if Soos were to ACTUALLY have a girlfriend it would run contrary to his manchild demeanor, even with the episode being him growing out of that. Because, and feel free to say it with me if you're following along at home, STATUS QUO!

Yes, ex-fucking-actly. Community subverted the "personality makeover/help the loser get a girl" trope wonderfully back in its first season, and it was disheartening to see it played straight here. As if Soos wouldn't feel happy if he didn't have a girlfriend.
