Gravity Falls is perhaps the single most personally influential piece of art in my life. At the very least it’s the one that’s been around the longest. Every time I revisit it, whether it’s actually watching the show or reading the books or whatever, I realize how deeply ingrained it is in me as a person. I don’t think it’s an overstatement to say that I would not be the person I am today without it. Sometimes I think it can be a mistake to look too deeply into the making of something you love. It can strip away the magic or make you realize imperfections or inconsistencies or whatever. But I came out of this feeling nothing but nostalgia and inspiration and even more admiration for this show than ever before. It shows how spontaneous and chaotic the development was, but is also filled with the infectious passion the creative team had for it. One of the best “making of” things ever, maybe. It also reveals that Grunkle Stan’s childhood hometown was partially inspired by Wildwood NJ, a place that’s just as intrinsic to my sense of self as Gravity Falls itself.

"My hope was that one day some kid would watch our main titles and have the same feeling of 'here comes something great' that my favorite shows gave me"
Over a decade in the making and its finally here! Every single page of this book was a love letter to animation, to creativity, and to the world of Gravity Falls. I laughed, I cried, I had to pull out a notebook to decode the multitude of hidden messages.....truly an enjoyable way to spend the evening. Long live Gravity Falls!!!
(also i did in fact spot the singular crumb hinting at a Dipifica endgame and i WILL be insufferable abt it!!!)

Great in-depth look behind each episode, every character design, every background, etc.
Definitely not a half assed artbook—a genuine and heartfelt love letter to the show and its crew. It was just overall a very good time.

Right now, the animation industry is struggling so much, I feel like I’ve been fighting for my life to make sure my generation of artists (my friends) still has a place in it. We started a studio. We’re developing and pitching a show and trying to carve out a path regardless of the increasingly overwhelming odds.
And then, fifteen years after the show that got me into animation, and brought me and so many of my friends together in the first place, Gravity Falls! comes out with a book that contains a literal guide to developing and pitching an animated show
almost eerily and otherworldly serendipitous.
👁️👁️👁️👁️👁️👁️👁️👁️👁️?
Reading it filled me with a kind of warmth and youthful naivety I haven’t felt since going into my freshman year at CalArts, when I genuinely thought this was the first chapter of the rest of my life.
The state of the world, and of the animation industry, knocked a lot of us off the path we thought we were going to have. But this book reminded me why I chose that path in the first place and, more importantly, why I’ve chose to keep fighting for it.
It feels like something from the thing that started all of this for me has somehow found its way back fifteen years later to say: keep going.
So thank you Alex Hirsch and Rob Renzetti, That’s a very beautiful thing.

I don't think I will ever get tired of revisiting the world of Gravity Falls. It is a truly magical place and holds such a special place in my heart.
This was also a truly delightful art book. From the initial fun of opening it up with that layer cover, through a special fold out page, to all the codes I saw hidden throughout that I will have to go back and decode at some point. This was a nonstop good time, as in I did sit down and read the whole thing in a single sitting. For being an art book this title has a surprisingly strong narrative element. Going through it feels like being told the story of the development of Gravity Falls from it's earliest conception to its final episode. It was clearly a walk down memory lane for the creators and a fascinating story to read through. All of this accompanied by some truly beautiful artwork of backgrounds and color blocking alongside some hilarious sketches and story boards.
I truly did love the chronological approach to organization this art book takes as you truly get to see the development of characters and story, while also getting to touch on everything. Every episode of the show gets at least a two page spread talking about it and showing off art specifically from it. And some episodes even get more pages that dive deeper into different aspects of them. And each page holds something new, the same kind of bts info is not shared for every episode in these spreads. Some are more focused on the themes of the episode, the characters being highlighted, the mysteries being set up, development challenges, or just an especially funny joke. Some highlight the art of the location, some the expression and actions of characters, and yet others showcase something else unexpected. Each turn of the page brings with it a new thing to learn.
And I would say that I learned a lot. Simultaneously a lot of thought and a surprising lack of it at times went into the creation of Gravity Falls. Alex Hirch and his creative team highlighted here developed such strong themes and character arcs while also putting together a solid and satisfying mystery. Getting a peak behind the curtain to just how much of this was planned verses just kind of accidental is fascinating, and I won't spoil what was and was not planned out. It was also interesting to see how the logistical realties of developing a TV show at times butted heads with the show in one way or another and how that impacted certain aspects. It was also interesting to see what aspects of the show were heavily pulled from the lives of Alex and his sister Ariel verses the experiences of another writer. There were several aspects of certain jokes that got highlighted here that I had never thought about or at least hadn't in a long time. It was also interesting to see what kind of things were inside jokes of the crew that made it into the show. And for as much as I know about Gravity Falls and all it's jokes I did have a moment of realization while reading of a joke/reference that has alluded me all these years that I have just never seen anyone mention or at the very least has yet to mean anything to me. But I finally get that the two time agents, Lolph and Dundgren are a reference to the actor Dolph Lundgren. I watched the original He-Man movie earlier this year so I finally have a point of reference and this joke finally clicked for me. Just one of the magical things of revisiting a thing from your childhood, you get more and more of the references you missed as a child.
I highly recommend this book to Gravity Falls fans. It was a great way to revisit a familiar place with a fresh set of eyes and is sure to only enhance future rewatches of the show.

It's truly an inspiration to see how a show as perfect as Gravity Falls wasn't just made one day, but that it was created as a concept that could have easily just been forgotten or ignored, and then it was stiched together piece by piece, idea by idea. The final product was one of the best shows ever created, and I am so glad that its creators put so much care and work into it despite the challenges.
Friendly warning: This is one hefty book so you better have shelf space for it.

This was different from other art books ive read because it actually went through the process of pitching, your show to a network and all the things that's inspired gravity falls! Fun read!

This gotta be the most beautiful and love-induced artbook I have ever held in my hands. It’s funny, creative, colorful and basically perfect. Just like the show.

Yessssssses! Review to come.
October 23, 2026
the book as an object is so beautiful and because this series is my absolute favourite this was obviously a hit. i had such a good time reading and admiring everything, every page was a true delight. i greatly enjoyed getting to know more about the whole production team, what their contributions were and what was their thought process behind it all!! of course, the codes every few pages were an essential addition and made my experience reading all the more fun! i can't wait to reread it again and again
September 16, 2026
This is amazing!! I will definitely be reading this again and again to try to absorb all the tiny details.

This is probably one of the better “art of” books
I’ve seen. There’s some great tidbits in here about the production and story decisions.

Years of torture and loneliness, and yet Ford still has the sweetest, most tender smile here in pictures with his family. I can't tell you how happy that makes me. All of the nostalgic, strangely 50s, 80s, and 2010s childhood vibes with a poor-ish and quirky American family and the types of magical mysteries feel straight out of my own 12 year old mind. It takes place in everyone's childhood at once with no set year. The obsession over the path not taken is a burden all writers and multiverse wanderers bear, so I loved getting to see what might have been.
Loved seeing Alex and Ariel's similarities to Dipper and Mabel! Creative journaling, crush of the week, everything pink and boy band and glittery, wealthy divorcee grauntie with family bonding trips, an eccentric pathological liar of an old man relative, fantasies of mysteries and aliens and conspiracies, evil Robbie kid, from Piedmont, and exact same reading taste. Ariel even pursed a more scientific route while Alex went to art school... just like Stan and Ford, they drifted at college. Alex is Stan and Dipper, while Ariel is Ford and Mabel.
The original version of Dipper might be even better than show Dipper whom I love?? He's so X-Files eccentric, future FBI agent, and the child of black coffee and anxiety. It's like they cracked up his personality. They somehow wrote Mabel as boy-crazy without making it her personality, and she isn't muted or standing next to Dipper at all, but instead equally a main character in her own right. That is such a hard balance for most men to write, but she was written like such a real little girl. I love how Soos bridges the twins' world of childhood to the adult world. He's childlike enough to be on their level while still being in Stan's world. While Wendy represents what they are closer to becoming. Teens. Wendy is the confident teen who Dipper could become, while Robbie is the insecure teen he might become if he continues down that path. Dipper wants to run down that path while Mabel is taking a fearful step back. Every episode in some subtle or obvious way carries on the theme of growing up. Monsters aren't the scary part of the show. Leaving childhood behind is. Emotion was always put before the plot, and that's what made every adventure so captivating. Dipper goes from rushing childhood to savoring it while Mabel learns to appreciate the older parts of childhood.
The Shack conveys Stan's personality marvelously while simultaneously carrying on so much of what Ford left behind, conveying Stan himself perfectly. They are the dark inverse what if Mabel and Dipper could have become. Even when being written, Ford was like a black hole, silhouette made by the form of Stan's light. An afterthought created to fill in the gaps of Stan's issues. All things he hated being defined by. Stan is the "extra Stan," but Ford was created to be a foil in another's story. He was designed to be loved and hated by Stan in equal measure.
I was robbed - ROBBED I SAY! - of apocalypse Ford and Wendy bonding with huge guns as well as grifter duo Dipper and Stan!
I love how last-minute Pacifica became a love interest. It felt really organic and natural that way. Not destined or planned from the start. She just grew, and his confidence from seeing her as an enemy gave him the strength to actually talk to her and later get to know her without stuttering over every word. It makes her redemption and friendship with Dipper feel realer.

The relinquishment of nostalgia for so many Generation Z adults, and tool for envisioning one’s future career within animation, this book has done so much in both continuously fostering the fandom and inspiring people to build on their creative endeavors — whether within the fandom or not. For those that have been veterans of this fandom (like myself for the lack of a better sentence), this book is a symbol of a medal for waiting patiently all these years. But those that are new to it, they are thoroughly enjoying the riches that are overflowing thanks to the likes of Mr Hirsch and Renzetti.
And I couldn’t be happier for the timing. As of now, I’m currently in my final year of film school with a special credit in animation. This show has been one of several inspirations but has my entire heart. It’s been there since I moved to Washington state for the first time and it’s finally come full circle to my film career back home in Texas, to whatever in my future.
Thank you Mr. Hirsch and Mr. Renzetti. Hope my degree allows me to work with one of you two one day.
For the fans, keep on rockin’. Keep on changin’ it up! Keep on keepin’ it weird. Peace ;-p

bought this last night and stayed up reading through it for like 4 hours before bed. and then i spent the majority of my day off today doing it again. i’ve cried multiple times.
the true love and care that goes into a show is evident when you watch it, but getting this behind the scenes look at the entire process, from early stages of an idea to the complex story that it has become, is extremely special and rewarding as a fan of the show from the beginning. i love everything about it. i will never have the words to accurately convey just how grateful i am to have gravity falls in my life.
EVERYONE, GO WATCH GRAVITY FALLS AND FALL DOWN THE RABBIT HOLE! YOU WILL BE SO HAPPY YOU DID!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

this art book is special for any Gravity Falls fan, and i loved diving in to the production background of the show. i learned so many things about the show’s writers, storyboard artists, and their ideas for Gravity Falls. the ending of this book even got me choked up. an amazing addition to my library that i will cherish forever. thank you alex hirsch for creating a world and characters i will always hold dearly in my heart.
October 20, 2026
i love this show more than any other piece of media that has ever been created, and i'm being 100% serious that i could've read another 300 pages of just behind the scenes facts & little sketches. every character and episode and joke are and secret code and addition to the lore are permanently filed away in my brain forever to call back to & go crazy over. i hope they keep writing books about this forever <3
September 28, 2026
This book was so entertaining and as funny as the show itself. After reading how much work it was to create this show I hate to ask for more, but here we are. I need more Gravity Falls content. Like right now.

Packed to the brim with snippets of storyboards character designs (and scrapped designs), this book was definitely worth the wait, only the exposed (?) binding of the book made me a bit nervous while reading/handling the book, cause I might’ve been a weeee bit afraid of breaking it.

Getting to read a firsthand account of how my favorite tv series was crafted is such an incredible experience!
