I'm super pumped about Gravity Falls, I feel like it's just what the doctor ordered for my nerd-heart. Keep up the crazy awesome work.

It's been a very tough year for everyone on the show. We're so happy to hear everyone responses on Tumbler. Our HARD work is really paying off. Thank you so much for your comment!
