Gravity Falls Confirmed To End
Gravity Falls creator Alex Hirsch has confirmed that the hit animated series is coming to an end after the last two episodes, “Weirdmageddon II: Escape from Reality” and “Weirdmageddon III” air.
Alex Hirsch confirmed via Tumblr:
The first thing to know is that the show isn’t being cancelled- it’s being finished. This is 100% my choice, and its something I decided on a very long time ago. I always designed Gravity Falls to be a finite series about one epic summer- a series with a beginning, middle, and end. There are so many shows that go on endlessly until they lose their original spark, or mysteries that are cancelled before they ever get a chance to payoff.
But I wanted Gravity Falls to have a mystery that had a real answer, an adventure that had a real climax, and an ending that had a real conclusion for the characters I care so much about. This is very unusual in television and a pretty big experiment, and Disney for their part has been enormously supportive. I know that hits are rare in this business, and its hard to let one of them go, so I’m so grateful that this company has had the vision to let me start (and end) the show the way I always wanted to.
While Gravity Falls could return at a later date, the creator feels this chapter is closed, and for now, he is personally done telling their story. The decision hasn’t been announced before hand until the it was final.
