Saturday Morning Adventures closes out the spooky season with a trip to The Mystery Shack as they show some love to the cult classic animated series, Gravity Falls!
Pop Break’s Editor-in-Chief Bill Bodkin is in the host seat and is joined by one of his oldest friends — Emmy and Annie Award-winning producer Andrew Hymas (Hilda, Octonauts)– the person who introduced him to the series. Bill and Andrew discuss Alex Hirsch’s series that had a wildly inconsistent broadcast run and how the series was able to overcome its unique schedule to score big ratings, a cult following and multiple New York Times bestselling books.Â
They discuss their love for the series, how Bill convinced his daughter to finally watch the series, why Gruncle Stan defied all of Andrew’s expectations and the absolute litany of big name guest stars the series drew in.Â
They also talk about their three favorite episodes and in honor of Halloween, they review the Season 1 episode entitled, “Summerween.”
