![]() I also have a soft spot for mini-golf, and it was fun to see the show’s writers try to explain those holes on the course, where you’re not sure just how the ball comes out which hole on the other side of the course! We also get the chance to see Pacifica’s snarky personality, cracking a bit under Mabel’s open personality, and willing to not be as negative towards others. The episode pretty quickly makes its point about rivalries (such as those between Mabel and Pacifica, and the numerous denizens of each of the course’s many holes), and has a little fun with it. It is here that the group finds that numerous golfball-headed denizens, ‘control the balls’ on the course. Like many of my favorite episodes, this one definitely gets into realms of dark and comedic at times, but it goes the extra mile to eek out a little more stuff in regards to Pacifica’s personality.ĥ) Golf WarAfter the Pines family goes to the local mini-golf course, the group runs into Pacifica Northwest, who Mabel soon ends up challenging to an after-dark mini-golf game. There is also a minor subplot with Mabel and her friends getting to come to the party, and attempting to woo a handsome young man. The episode also builds up more history regarding the Northwest family, with emphasis on how they short-changed a number of workers back in the past, and how that ghostly rage has manifested itself into something with ghastly consequences. Much like that episode, Pacifica’s character continued to take baby steps, attemping to pull away from her family’s snobbish ways. There’s also a smaller side-story about Stan trying to find some way to get more money to the Mystery Shack, which is good for a few laughs, notably in the form of a terrifying metal figure he finds endearing.Ħ) Northwest Mansion MysteryWhen a number of ghostly apparitions begin to haunt the Northwest Family Mansion around the time of their annual invite-only party, the family hires Dipper to try and get rid of the apparitions.įollowing the events of the episode Golf War, some were eager to see if this episode brought Pacifica Northwest back into the realms of character development. The episode also serves as one of those reminders about getting out of the house and actually experiencing life, even if it may not be as safe as playing a game is. It’s fun to see Mabel trying to apply her matchmaking skills to helping Soos, as well as his uneasiness communicating with women. The episode brings back some memories of the season one episode, Fight Fighters, in how its seemingly regular video game character, becomes something more…though GIFfany is definitely a more unsettling digital creation, than Rumble McSkirmish. They soon stumble onto a dating game that Soos decides to try, but find out that the girl on it named GIFfany, may be a little more than what she seems. When Soos’ grandmother requests that he find a date for his cousin’s wedding, Mabel and Dipper try to help Soos with his people skills. With that in mind, I finally present my Top 10 favorite episodes from the second season of Gravity Falls. ![]() Some played off events that had been started in Season 1, and others brought to light new revelations, that both entranced us, and made us ask even more questions! With the show having ended in mid-February, I began looking over the 20 episodes the season had encompassed. ![]() In Season 2, they definitely upped the ante…and then, the series ended.įortunately, finishing off the series was the wish of series creator, Alex Hirsch, who felt the show had said all it needed to say, with its 40 episodes that spanned two seasons (and over 4 years, given Disney’s distribution methods on cable TV). Mabel and Dipper Pines had encountered quite a bit in that first season, and it definitely made fans hunger for more. *WARNING: This list delves into spoilers, and assumes that the reader has already seen Season 2 of “Gravity Falls.” You have been warned…*įollowing the events of Season 1, it was hard to gauge just where Gravity Falls was going.
