I adore this episode for being one of the only examples in children's media where a crush like this is actually resolved and maturely discussed. The mere fact that the show would even touch it instead of milking it throughout the show just gives me so much respect for it.
I disagree. I think they handled it well even in that episode as like Dipper said "how do you just turn off how you feel about someone?" it's not that easy.
This is probably the most straight-up horror GF ever gets. There will be other episodes, where it gets just as intense with some frightening scenes, but nothing quite as condensed as this. The John Carpenter-inspired monster, the claustrophobia, the (attempts at) jump scares and the very fact that there is no B-story to relax the tension all makes this a true horror story - and one of the very best episodes of the show.
Wendy is 15 and Dipper is 12. So just 3-year difference. So if we ship them when they're both of age, I think it's okay. Like college fan fic onwards is cool by me.
Technically, those are 2 years, If Wendy didn't turn 16 before Dipper and Mabel turned 13, then that means that she is 2 years and some months older than them
A lot of us have said it before, but it's good that you're noticing all the subtle callbacks! They say the best kind narrative is one that can balance build-up and pay-off and I can say that even the episodes that might feel a little much like filler still have their build up-both in their own way and in building Gravity Falls as a town that feels like a second home.
Mabel- "Not as creepy as Dipper's internet history" Wow I don't know how that got on Disney Channel, but I guess it would fly over most kid's heads... hopefully.
Hey alycia, I gotta ask..you seem so bummed out about Dipper and Wendy not getting together in this.....what if I could direct you to a fanfiction writer who built an entire future AU that sails on the hope of them having a future together?
@@alyciadweeb I love how you really encourage dipper like he's your son I really think some of the episode mable shows her big sister side to her little brother dipper but some episodes she doesn't I love both of them
YES FINALLY i always look out for Wednesday from the day i started watching your GF reactions! I'll add more after watching the reaction, just know it always put a smile on my face to see you pop up in my notifications~ Edit:I'm back, i watched it. Okay so, i'm SO satisfied. Like, i was afraid you would have cut off some of the scenes i really wanted you to react to, but you didn't, and i'm really glad! I think this one is a really good episode from MANY point of view, and i was really looking out to this one (i also really look out for your reaction of the last two episodes cause those are amazing but that'll have to wait.). I agree woth you for the continuity. This show really brings back a lot of stuff, both talked than not. Like, sometimes you just have to look at the backgrounds and stuff to notice the continuity is actually there, and it's amazing. They even have callbacks to the shorts! I rhink my fave reactions were your "Dipper's internet history" and "The Author wasn't the Author but a monster reveal"or any other scene where he was being really creepy bh. Also the one where Wendy used the sign from ep 4 of season one. That was a really clever and sweet callback, and your reaction there was like mine lol Having said that, i can't wait for the next upload, i'm sure you'll like tje next couple episodes, especially the 4° {Always id i remember the order correctly)! Please stay safe, i wish you'll have a good week-end! See ya~
that scene is one of my favorites, where the shapeshifter's eyes blink the wrong way and then his neck just twists around and I start screaming because hOW IS THIS A KIDS SHOW ALEX HIRSCH
I like this episode since it developed the Wendy character to show that she is more than capable of being in a mystery hunt/adventure. I also liked how it addressed Dipper's crush on Wendy and moved on from it, kudos to the writers! Can't wait to see you react to the rest of the season!
I love how she burned her "OH NO!" right before "How 'bout BOTH!" I had the moment *after that* transformation pegged as the "OH NO" moment but instead her jaw just drops like she's out of Reaction ammo or something. XD
Alycia, ever heard of 1982 John Carpenter's "The Thing"? Hamil's character is a nerfed version. Check that movie out, it's a little scary and gor- wait... forget what I said. It's not scary at all you'll love it! The Thing is a family comedy with clever jokes all throughout. If you watch till the end there's a unicorn wearing a sweater. :p
You know what, this was the episode that introduced me to Gravity Falls. Forgive me, I was initially annoyed with Mabel upon first impression. lmao she's a doll now.
Btw did you not know there was a few mini series in between seasons 1 and 2? They are called "Dipper's Guide to the Unexplained", "Mabel's Guide to Life", "Fix'n it with Soos", Gravity Falls Public Access Television" and "Mabel's Scrapbook".
Okay the two scariest things in this show are 1. The Shape-Shifter (especially in the Dipper/Mabel/Bug combo form), and 2. (And scariest) Bill Cipher (since he is the PG cartoon version of Satan basically)!!!! I like the fact they portray the fact the crushes do sometime (and for me it's all the time) CRASH AND BURN so it's accurate!!!!! But also works out okay, since this the one time you want to be friends need.
EliteF22 Idk know why people say mabel was terrible she saw that her brother Wasnt doing to good emtions wise so she tried to help him out and it worked
I like how the point of Dipper and Mabel is that the former is the voice of reason and the latter of innocence and bliss. Mabel seems to put TOO much focus on the little things which serve no practical benefit and yet all too often it's those little things that end being the solution (or a lead to it). Still, this episode is a healthy reminder that Mabel's obsession with superfluous values isn't always a good thing. Neither of the twins are perfect or capable of doing it all; you can't always be a Dipper or a Mabel.
In way I see it Dipper and Wendy might be together a few years from now. But Wendy definitely isn't the only person Dipper might end up with and we have no idea who he'll meet when he leaves Gravity Falls.
Hey i have question! Am i the only one who cant watch s2 ep1 reaction? Video is blocked and i dont know is that just me because i live in other country? I was trying vpn but nothing works. Can someone help. I love alycia reactions and scaryoke i one of my favourite episodes. There is the same problem with episode dungeons, dungeons and more dungeons!
Kyle Morello right its Not like mabel cant be terrible and its not like dipper cant be terrible, but this isnt one of those time. She being selfless in trying to help her brother.
Darryl Jack yeah, truth be told I think this is a great decade for animated siblings, so it always bothers me when people start dissing or get a reason to diss well written siblings like Dipper and Mabel. Sure they have their bad moments, but they're kids. At least they're able to learn from their mistakes and overall see eye to eye with each other.
Lol, yeah, season 2 gets a little intense. (And, by 'intense' I mean the DVD version is rated PG.) But, it's totally worth the scariness :D Can't wait for your next vid!God bless! :) - Ellie
ppvsonicspy Well, technically are 2, if Wendy didn't turned 16 before Dipper and Mabel turned 13, then that means that she's 2 years and some months older than them
Solitary Conversationalist I think that the issue is mostly because people get a little bit sensible with the age when they are under 17 or 18, because if we are realistic, there are cuples that are more than 3 years apart, sometimes MUCH more, and no one cares about if, but well, who knows
Wendy kinda got a rough deal compared to the other “main” characters, especially in the first season. I’m biased because she means a lot to me and my childhood friends. I appreciate them trying to fix this in the second, but we really needed an episode on her a la Soos and the Real Girl. The closest we’ll get is the “On the Road” outline Michael Rianda tweeted, so at least they tried.

Luffyiscool To bad the, screwed it up later.
I've watched the show many times all the way through and I don't know what you mean.
I thought this show did well with pretty much everything.
Luffyiscool I hate how they brought it up later. In "that" episode. With Spiders. Y'know.
I disagree. I think they handled it well even in that episode as like Dipper said "how do you just turn off how you feel about someone?" it's not that easy.
Seth Vint Idk, maybe I just hate that episode. But I groaned so hard at that.
This is probably the most straight-up horror GF ever gets. There will be other episodes, where it gets just as intense with some frightening scenes, but nothing quite as condensed as this. The John Carpenter-inspired monster, the claustrophobia, the (attempts at) jump scares and the very fact that there is no B-story to relax the tension all makes this a true horror story - and one of the very best episodes of the show.
I thik it's on par with some parts of the finale frankly. But except for that you're right ;)
The lack of B-story is a really good point, wow
Wendy is 15 and Dipper is 12. So just 3-year difference. So if we ship them when they're both of age, I think it's okay. Like college fan fic onwards is cool by me.
He just needs some height :D
Like 18 and 15?)))))
Владимир Чуркин Personally, 18 and 21 just to be safe. Lol.
I didn't knew she was 15. She seems like 16 or 17-ish to me.
Technically, those are 2 years, If Wendy didn't turn 16 before Dipper and Mabel turned 13, then that means that she is 2 years and some months older than them
Who would've ever thought that we'd get Luke Skywalker himself in an episode of Gravity Falls! Mark Hamil is the man! Such an incredible dude!
Plus this is the same dude who voiced The Joker and Fire Lord Ozai along with Skips and many other characters
All Hail Mark Hamill!!!
Um, what? -_-
Mark was the voice of the shape shifter
Will Parks Oh....That too. Lol
Julian Quintanilla Damn that was him? Hes everywhere
edleedavis I know, right!? I totally didn't know he voiced Skips in Regular Show until I was out of school.
A lot of us have said it before, but it's good that you're noticing all the subtle callbacks!

"Good luck sleepin' tonight!"
One of the best lines this episode!
Warp Zone its true
2:59 When her smile just drops as she realizes the room may crush them. Priceless.
agree
My favorite thing about season 2 is that they put more energy into the arc mysteries without compromising their "mystery of the week" formula.
Mabel- "Not as creepy as Dipper's internet history"
Wow I don't know how that got on Disney Channel, but I guess it would fly over most kid's heads... hopefully.
agree.., it got me laughing! me ars off the 1rst time watching!..
Just subbed I subbed because watching your videos give me a nice warm and simple happiness keep up the good work
Nathaniel Giron :D Thank you so much!!

1:22 "who wrote this journal?"
"Wendy!"
Last episode got taken down
GlitchFever
Please get this comment to the top!
Yeah, it would be nice to share it somewhere else. Torrents anyone? Maybe IPFS?
Don't worry Alycia it's not a spider...
unless it wants to be.
Your reactions are so fun to watch, love the smiles. Glad I stumbled across your channel.
YES FINALLY i always look out for Wednesday from the day i started watching your GF reactions!
I'll add more after watching the reaction, just know it always put a smile on my face to see you pop up in my notifications~

Dipper meets the most diabolical trap.. he was just friend zoned and was basically told there's no way out ..the untold evil of gravity falls
Jeff splatford Yes how horrible... to be genuinely liked and considered a close friend by someone you love - just diabolical.
Glad dipper didn't get friend zoned too bad :) and... Can't wait what scariest things will come! This... Was terrific
I like this episode since it developed the Wendy character to show that she is more than capable of being in a mystery hunt/adventure. I also liked how it addressed Dipper's crush on Wendy and moved on from it, kudos to the writers! Can't wait to see you react to the rest of the season!
“This will be the last form you ever take!” AAAAHHHHHH!!!
I love how she burned her "OH NO!" right before "How 'bout BOTH!" I had the moment *after that* transformation pegged as the "OH NO" moment but instead her jaw just drops like she's out of Reaction ammo or something. XD
I love when Alycia says "oh noooo" in most of the creepy ish scenes
Gravity Falls is a certified classic !!! No CAP!!
Alycia, ever heard of 1982 John Carpenter's "The Thing"? Hamil's character is a nerfed version. Check that movie out, it's a little scary and gor- wait... forget what I said. It's not scary at all you'll love it! The Thing is a family comedy with clever jokes all throughout. If you watch till the end there's a unicorn wearing a sweater. :p
Can we focus on Dipper x Pacifica now?
*actual quote from Alex*
gabe prentiss Just a quote from Alex from after this episode aired.
YES XD
NEVAHHHHHH!
This episode has a special place in my heart I love it so much
Yes! Finally, one of my favourite episodes, you just gotta love Wendy :)
thank the almighty creator and lord lucifer for Linda Cardellini...
I LOVE YOUR REACTIONS!!! Can’t wait until.. hehe, I won’t tell, but I can’t wait.
I think we call can't wait for that. :)
She thinks there's a lot of callbacks NOW!! :P
its actually gonna get a lot creepier. but there will be so many heart felt moments that you may not even notice, lol.
You know a cartoon is great when its nightmare fuel is top notch
I enjoy your reactions! Seriously! :)
Hey when dipper turns 18 wendy will be 21 so theres still hope.
You know what, this was the episode that introduced me to Gravity Falls. Forgive me, I was initially annoyed with Mabel upon first impression. lmao she's a doll now.
Btw did you not know there was a few mini series in between seasons 1 and 2? They are called "Dipper's Guide to the Unexplained", "Mabel's Guide to Life", "Fix'n it with Soos", Gravity Falls Public Access Television" and "Mabel's Scrapbook".
I love this episode. I like how they look at the relationship between Wendy and Dipper. I also like Wendy as a character, she is so cool.
agreed, if only more girls were round like her !..
Hey, I assume you wouldn’t respond, but what happened to episode 1 reaction? Was it copyrighted or something?
Okay the two scariest things in this show are 1. The Shape-Shifter (especially in the Dipper/Mabel/Bug combo form), and 2. (And scariest) Bill Cipher (since he is the PG cartoon version of Satan basically)!!!! I like the fact they portray the fact the crushes do sometime (and for me it's all the time) CRASH AND BURN so it's accurate!!!!! But also works out okay, since this the one time you want to be friends need.
I LOVE Gravity Falls' adult jokes. XD
2:48
Never have I been so happy to be called a dweeb in my life before
What happened to season 2, epsiode 1?
I can't find it on your channel.
I really like how you dressed up for this! Between your hair and dress it looks like you're going to the ball at the palace after this.
This is my all time fav episode!
I've been subbed since pretty early on. Felt the urge to watch this during work haha.
What happened to Episode 1?🙁🙁
S2 e1 and e13 are blocked in my country 😔
I don't care if it's not canon but, in my mind, Dipper and Wendy got together in their twenties and have a cat named, Dr. Albert Pinkerton.
You absolutely NEED to do a double feature next week... Well, obviously I can't force you, but no one wants to wait two weeks for episode 4. ;)
EXACTLY! I NEED TWO EPISODES A WEEK, IT'S TORTURE TO WAIT!
Or, episode 7 ;)
Elealeh Blue or episode 10 and 11 ;)
Plot Twist: Dipper isn’t simping for Wendy, he’s simping Author.
Improper use of machinery could
lead to utter catastrophe...
Yeah, Mable starts to really cross a line for me from here on out.
julie martinez what?does it really demonize every female character? I thought it only demonized the spider lady and females like her.
EliteF22 Idk know why people say mabel was terrible she saw that her brother
Wasnt doing to good emtions wise so she tried to help him out and it worked
julie martinez but that was his intent to pick up girls that was wrong
He was being a player
ah yes, I forgot about that part. Totally agree, them forcing Dipper to like Candy like he owes her something felt pretty stupid
I like how the point of Dipper and Mabel is that the former is the voice of reason and the latter of innocence and bliss. Mabel seems to put TOO much focus on the little things which serve no practical benefit and yet all too often it's those little things that end being the solution (or a lead to it). Still, this episode is a healthy reminder that Mabel's obsession with superfluous values isn't always a good thing. Neither of the twins are perfect or capable of doing it all; you can't always be a Dipper or a Mabel.
2:20 Why didn't any of them ever mention this place during the weirdmagedin? Like Stan says there running outta food
Who's still here in 2024 cuz Alicia is so good at reacting I rewatch it
what happened to episode 1? it just skips it and can't find it anywhere on your channel either and i'm gonna assume you didn't just skip watching it.
Where is episode 1 season 2?
4:20 I don’t know if he realized, but Dipper pretty much got to 2nd base
In way I see it Dipper and Wendy might be together a few years from now. But Wendy definitely isn't the only person Dipper might end up with and we have no idea who he'll meet when he leaves Gravity Falls.
Lol at the beginning, that be the real fears of a 12 year old boy
so sad s2 ep1 was blocked :(
love your reactions
04:58 Hold your horses we’re not there yet.
Ahoy hoy! This show borderlines on being very fun and funny but also gets kinda creepy and disturbing. o.o
Aw man! Season 2 episode 1 is blocked! I really wanted to see your reaction to the Pines singing. I was dying!
2:20 one of the years marked as a disaster is 2020 lol
S2 e1 is blocked I thought you should know
I remember pez’s and pez dispensers, we would eat them even though we didn’t like them.
Hey i have question! Am i the only one who cant watch s2 ep1 reaction? Video is blocked and i dont know is that just me because i live in other country? I was trying vpn but nothing works. Can someone help. I love alycia reactions and scaryoke i one of my favourite episodes. There is the same problem with episode dungeons, dungeons and more dungeons!
You’re not the only one! Both them episodes are unavailable for me too
Northwest Mansion Mystery is also blocked for me, which sucks because it’s another great episode
9:00 A reference made out of wood 😉
one episode away oh boi !!
Did season 2-1 get copyrighted
0:04 such white teeth. Which toothpaste do you use?
She's clearly under a blacklight. :P
"It's like a crime scene in my mouth!"
You guys are so sweet!!! 💛 I actually haven’t been to the dentist in like 4 years lol! I just use Colgate total and floss everyday XD
I srlsy love the relationship between dipper and Wendy.
When you need a boost you call zoos
where's episode 1 scary-oke? :(
Idk know why people say mabel was terrible she saw that her brother
Wasnt doing to good emtions wise so she tried to help him out and it worked
Darryl Jack thank you!
Kyle Morello right its
Not like mabel cant be terrible and its not like dipper cant be terrible, but this isnt one of those time.
She being selfless in trying to help her brother.

HAHA! Good luck sleeping tonight!
About time, Dipper!
Lol, yeah, season 2 gets a little intense. (And, by 'intense' I mean the DVD version is rated PG.) But, it's totally worth the scariness :D Can't wait for your next vid!God bless! :) - Ellie
02:28 What kind of disaster indeed...
10:28 they are only 2 years apart
a snake *3 but still the same.
ppvsonicspy my mistake, haven't actually watched this show in a while
ppvsonicspy
Well, technically are 2, if Wendy didn't turned 16 before Dipper and Mabel turned 13, then that means that she's 2 years and some months older than them

Solitary Conversationalist
Yeah, I know, and actually I do understand them too, but well ...
(I love Steven and Connie btw they are so cute)
Awesome video👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏😂😂😂😂😂😂😂👌love this episode!!!!!!
Great reaction
2:22 Dipper/Ford predicted 2020
5 seconds in and already called a dweeb just like school
This is one of my favorite episode !!! I hope you enjoy it. ^-^
Where is episode 1 of season 2?
It said the video is blocked in the country.
omg yes i love this Episode and i lov ur reactions, u are so cute and loveable
*Lip smack* still waitin'
Sorry if there's a emergency and I'm nagging for a new upload
one of the shows creepiest episodes
Do you see what I see?
At 2:21, among those boxes. There is a box labeled "2020". Wow... they predicted the pandemic.
They could easily only put random years like 2048 or something like that and then something happens on that, dumba**
That’s … not what it meant lol
What’s next in the lineup for reactions?
Hello Alycia. I would watch all those movies.
YES!
Wendy kinda got a rough deal compared to the other “main” characters, especially in the first season. I’m biased because she means a lot to me and my childhood friends. I appreciate them trying to fix this in the second, but we really needed an episode on her a la Soos and the Real Girl. The closest we’ll get is the “On the Road” outline Michael Rianda tweeted, so at least they tried.
How fast the expressions change
I'm worried. She hasn't posted ina while and her Facebook page and Instagram have been removed!
Christopher Lewis NANI!?!?!?!?!!?!!?!?!
I don't know why maybe she will make a video about it
at least it wasnt a spider
You should react to Avatar the last airbender, you'd love that show
HOW AM I ONLY THE SECOND PERSON LIKE THIS?!?!?!?!?
Woahwoahwoah. What happened to the next episode?
Property of....Mr F
