I need to check out Gravity Falls – Skatronixxx
Those mourning the end of the beloved Disney X.D. animated series Gravity Falls. May be happy to hear that creator Alex Hirsch has landed a presentation pilot for his new animated show with major broadcast network FOX.
In a conversation with Variety, Hirsch was tipped lipped about his new show but did quip that “I’m cooking up some brand-new weirdness.” The article also revealed that the writer and voice actor had also been courted by other networks before ultimately deciding to go with FOX.
Gravity Falls has currently finished its second season run but a hour-long series finale is set to air February 15. In addressing the announcement that the show was to end, Hirsch commented: “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.”
FOX has been home to a number of successful animated shows including King of the Hill, Family Guy, American Dad, Futurama and (of course) The Simpsons. Should Hirsch’s new show get picked up he will be in great company.
