Adventure time would have a rough start for this channel since the earlier episodes are just wacky. But there's SO MUCH good content later on. Plus we have the Distant Lands and Fiona spin offs.

[@gregchezick7757]

If they do 2-3 episodes per they can get through seasons 1 in a breeze.

[@inswidam1330]

@@gregchezick7757 that would definitely work as each ep is only 10 or so minutes from what I remeber

[@simongosselin4300]

It is a very long show though, something to consider.

[@gregchezick7757]

@@simongosselin4300 going by hours its actually shorter than other shows they have already watched, its about 34 hours for the original series, while AOT is 36 for the entire thing. Adding the 4 specials and F+C it still isn't that much longer.

[@kayden2119]

They have a tendency to look very deeply into things so I think they would still like the character stuff before the show even gets much story. Plus I just think they would find it funny in general. But yeah they would really need to do 2 episodes a week otherwise its not really worth it at all.

[@DanGamingFan2406]

Good choice having this drop before episode 11 so it releases right on Halloween. I love _Summerween!_ The idea of Halloween in summer is great, and the monster is really creative. I also love how for a Halloween episode, it's nowhere near as creepy as the show gets.

[@loofdoornob8701]

Adventure time is one of my favorite shows of all time it would be cool if that was a show you guys started.

[@gregovaromoreno6318]

4:06 there's a joke in the flyer with a story. Alex wanted it to say something like bottles will be spined. So the S and P ( standard and practice the guys who said what is allowed in TV) didn't let him put it. So he was pissed, so they put " not s and p approved" and when they try to tell them not too, he responded: "Why?" So they had to allowed it

[@athenianhoplite930]

Not S&P approved has been approved by S&P

[@thomasallman7385]

Adventure time as such a good show I'd highly reccomend

[@randalthor741]

One of the things I really like about this episode is how Mabel talks about how she's upset because she didn't realize that this was already their last Halloween. At its core, Gravity Falls is all about the relationship between siblings, and how it changes over time as they grow up. This episode is one of the ones that showcases that really well. Edit: and yes, Summerween is because they wanted to do a Halloween episode, but the entire run of the show (both seasons) takes place over the course of a single summer, so they had to invent a copycat holiday to do a Halloween episode lol

[@leahkent3915]

Me 10 years ago. I love the "spirited Away " theme of this episode, and its so scary. Me now: Dipper you were going to ditch Mabel on y'alls favorite holiday, that y'all spent all day planing for, to go meet a girl, already in a relationship, at a party that wasn't even going to start until after trick or treating was over? Doing both was completely possible! Your supossed to be the one who is good at Planning/schedules!

[@Crescentknight8189]

Y’all are not ready for the full emotional rollercoaster that is Adventure Time 😭 PS. I used to question Wendy’s reluctance to go Trick or Treating until I remember her family is basically pillaging their neighborhood for candy 😂

[@georgercop]

5:10 - fun fact, we had a golden retriever called Jake when I was growing up in the 90s, (he was born in the late 80s, well before Adventure Time was a thing), and more recently, my mam got another golden retriever puppy, and called him Finn. She has no knowledge of Adventure Time whatsoever - she just liked the name Finn, so that lining up is total coincidence =P

[@aubryellaotero1064]

The summerween monster is based after No Face in Spirited Away! It’s a wonderful ghibli movie.

[@McBeelzebub]

I'd side with everyone promoting Adventure Time, save only one possible caveat, which is that there's a LOT of show there to watch. If you do Adventure Time, you're committing yourself to at least ten seasons with over 280 episodes, and that's ignoring the various specials and spin offs. So only commit to it if you're ready for that!

[@zephshoir]

Honestly that is why I have avoides it

[@TheeWandaStan]

@@zephshoir it wouldn’t take too long to watch through it all. all the episodes are 11 minutes long and each season varies in length. 6 episodes is roughly an hour so depending on one’s schedule you could easily get through most of the first 2 seasons in a week or so

[@kayden2119]

Its not actually that long. each episode is 10 minutes. Every season is only around the length of a long movie.@@zephshoir

[@B_M13]

Adventure time is very good, would highly recommend watching it as a reaction

[@DarkestNova556]

“We are a Candy Corn Family. It’s in the marriage contract.” 😂

[@reneevandyck7017]

a few spoiler-free things 1. The flyer for the party was supposed to say "bottles will be spun" Disney didn't like that for no reason, so Alex Hirsch replaced it with not S+P approved to be a justified dick. They responded with "not S+P approved has been approved by S+P." Screw Disney. 2. One of the writers just wanted a character named Gorny, so they threw him in there to up the stakes 3. When the kids run away screaming from Stan, Disney really didn't like that, so added some shorts in-between shots. I like to imagine those weren't there when the kids saw him. It would be scarring for life.

[@BelBelle468]

I don’t blame Disney for the 3rd one. While it would’ve been funny, I imagine they’d be scared of having one of their main characters flashing a bunch of children lol

[@Twilumina]

Definitely watch Adventure Time! It's a big one, but it goes so hard when it wants to. And when it doesn't want to go hard, it's hilarious!

[@0okamino]

Agreed! I think anyone who hasn’t watched _Adventure Time_ should watch it (and react to it if applicable). Anyone who has already watched it should… watch it again!

[@abemrofchak]

Kenny doesn't care what religion or sexuality or gender or anything his kids are. But they will enjoy candy corn or they will not be welcome.

[@tk0134]

Adventure Time would be an awesome series to react to!

[@aubryellaotero1064]

I love how whenever there’s two people together it’s sure that one of them loves candy corn and the other despises it

[@mothsshoes]

adventure time is definitely a commitment since it’s so long and the first few seasons are mostly just wacky shenanigans, but i’d definitely enjoy seeing you guys react to and discuss it! there aren’t nearly enough adventure time reactions, and you guys are some of my favorite reactors, so i’d love to see it. the show is so fun and the lore is top tier, especially with the later seasons and spin-offs, distant lands and fionna and cake!! :))

[@reneehoenicke4765]

The last time I went trick or treating I was a freshman in highschool. I remember being so excited to so it with a group of friends for the first time, and there were so many adults that gave us dirty looks and one house even refused to give us candy. It was overall a fun night, but I was really sad when I realized my favorite holiday would never be the same.

[@najhoant]

4:07 Take notice of the line on the flyer: "Not S&P Approved". It's a joke that Alex Hirsch worked in when Disney's Standards and Practices department (S&P) took issue with the original line, "Bottles will be spun", because they thought it was too mature. Hirsch was pretty fed up with them by them and told them to change it to "Not S&P Approved". They objected once, Hirsch stuck to this, and this became the line.

I would absolutely watch a adventure time reaction.

[@notcha8080]

i think the payoff to watching adventure time is worth it! i would absolutely love to see your reactions to it, especially seasons 5-10 and the spin offs. there are over 250 episodes though. if you uploaded one episode a week it would take years to get through it, so maybe you could combine two episodes in one video? idk lol

[@inswidam1330]

I think an Adventure Time reaction would be fun, that show is so crazy.

[@meganhammer7857]

The bit where Soos puts batteries in the toy is always so funny. ... Anyway, on rewatching this, it really stands out to me how Dipper is in such a hurry to grow up. That's really the central flaw of his character, his crush on Wendy is part of that too (wanting to seem mature to impress an older kid). People don't really seem to talk about how that's unhealthy as much as they go on about Mabel being childish.

[@kullaratt.9336]

This. To add to the point, Mabel is not acting childish just because. She's shown to be well aware that she HAS to grow up and be matured at some point, and in her mind that time is very VERY close. Even tho you can still be a kid at heart and enjoy doing stuff kids enjoy like trick-or-treating when you're an adult, sadly lots of adults will still judge others for being "childish". Mabel clings to her childhood and her "childish" activities with Dipper precisely because in her mind (and let's be real, in lots of people's mind) they're getting close to the age that they won't be able to do these things anymore.

[@onewomanarmy6451]

Such great media references! Also, not really what they asked but I want to put "Kipo and the Age of Wonderbeasts" and "Dead End: Paranormal Park" in the hat with Adventure Time!

[@speedupslowdown358]

Adventure time is a really good choice for a show especially since it’s has ALOT of lore, story, and plot and it’s actually a lot better than gravity falls. The only thing that kinda sucks is that season 1 doesn’t include a lot of lore like season 2-10. It’s the best CN show btw

[@ezzy8319]

ABSOLUTELY i'd love to see adventure time reactions from you guys, but the sheer number of episodes might be a little daunting for one a week so if you go ahead with it do whatever feels most comfortable for you (multiple episodes per video or per week or usual schedule etc)

[@SkullLazer]

YESSSS ADVENTURE TIME!!!. I’ll watch every single episode with you guys

[@PBnJoel]

[@athenianhoplite930]

"not S&P approved has been approved by S&P"

[@nikolaikester]

YES ADVENTURE TIME YES YES

[@Emmariscobar]

Fun fact: the pamphlet at 4:06 was originally intended to say "bottles will be spun" but Disney's Standards & Practices objected to it since the implication of teenagers kissing was too much for children (unlike the scene right afterwards where a kid gets eaten alive, that one was perfectly fine for children to witness), so it eventually got replaced with "not S&P aproved" but first someone had to send an email stating that ""not S&P aproved" has been aproved by S&P" with a straight face.

[@shadowraider]

the candycorn fight... well it was a good marriage while it lasted... lol. I went to the summerween convention a while back too. I love that you guys got this out on Halloween too. for those keeping up the cryptogram in the credits says "YILFTSG GL BLF YB SLNVDLIP: GSV XZMWB." which translates to: "BROUGHT TO YOU BY HOMEWORK: THE CANDY." I think I'll comment the cryptograms from here on out.

[@aniiinerd]

Bruh- I’m literally dressed as the villain of Gravity Falls for Halloween while watching 2 of my favorite reactors watch the Halloween episode of Gravity Falls, how perfect is that!?

[@midoriya-shonen]

I don't have much experience with Adventure Time, but another one I can offer up is Steven Universe. You guys would EAT. IT. UP. So many fascinating character dynamics and arcs. The kind of thing that touches your soul. You should definitely add that one to your list if it isn't on there already.

[@Honk4frogs]

Yeah I think Montana would have an absolute field day with a ton of steven universe episodes. There is just so much to unpack, and such an emphasis on mood (especially in the earlier seasons)

[@Honk4frogs]

Also, if you like Steven Universe you should definitely watch adventure time. SU wouldn't exist without it, Rebecca Sugar wrote some of the best episodes and it's just an amazing show.

[@АнтонДолматов-с1ю]

The famous spin the bottle game, not approved by Standards and Practices. I would suggest watching Alex Hirsch against Disney censorship, but unfortunately there may be spoilers.😆

[@heracross3323]

Adventure Time isn’t a bad choice, but I’ve been dying for you two to watch BoJack Horseman or Steven Universe. It’s just so hard to compete with the more popular shows though. Oh well, I can wait as long as it takes.

[@bullseye7735]

I would love for you guys to react to adventure time! It’s a slow burn in the first season since the plot isn’t super fleshed out but afterwards it goes full force. That and the episodes are hilarious and a lot of character growth as the show continues

[@matiaspereyra9392]

Adventure time would be nice to see because it starts so weird I want to see your reactions but specially Montana's because we're going to get to see her brain adapting to the madness (Kenny's too since he hasn't seen it in a long time but he might come somewhat prepared) and how long it will take for your brains to roll with that madness

[@coreyoak]

Adventure time is long and it's wacky at the start but it gets serious and amazingly lore-y after the starting but I'd LOVE to see your reactiona

[@josuevargas1952]

YES, PLEASE D O WATCH ADVENTURE TIME, it's a little bad about the spoilers the fact that you know some, but still it will be a GREAT ride, and montana will love it, at the start it seems like a really trippy ride, but it's really good

[@PuccaLover15]

I have an aunt that lives in a town that doesn’t do trick or treating on Halloween night but the last Saturday of October. I’d get to go trick or treating twice, which means twice as much candy, which my mom loved because any chocolate candies I didn’t like she got. One time, it was near the end of the night and we came to this house that dumped AN ENTIRE BOWL OF CANDY into my bag!! They told us they were finishing up so the last kid who came to their house would get every last bit of candy in the bowl. Best trick or treating haul ever!!!!

[@isaacvann6623]

PLEASE ADVENTURE TIME!! I 100% would be at every premier 😊

[@justinehercthehuman]

YOU GUYS SHOULD WATCH ADVENTURE TIME!!! But... do it in sets like 2-4 episodes per week because there are 283 episodes already HAHA.

[@notjesuz755]

Oh yeah, an Adventure Time reaction will be AMAZING. The whole show itself is just too great to not watch at least once.

[@peachesplums]

absolutely watch Adventure Time, but maybe do more than one ep per video since its a whole 10 seasons

[@HaydrogenBomb]

I think this was actually the first episode of Gravity Falls I ever watched. Dunno how that happened, but I always enjoy coming back to it.

[@normalgamergal]

Disney replayed this episode a lot in syndication on their channels. The worst one for me was Double Dipper, but this one was also shown a lot.

[@InDaZone1219]

Adventure Time is a good pick for a future watch series

[@ryanlukkarinen2603]

Cannot believe how perfect the timing of this episode coming out was.

[@theredknight1757]

I loved the design and voice for the Trickster, and the "reveal" was so out of left-field, but so well telegraphed I kicked myself for not guessing it. Also, it's funny. My son doesn't like chocolate and has a peanut allergy. My daughter has a tree nut allergy (but not vice-versa). So, before any normal Halloween candy trading took place, they did trading on chocolate and pea/tree-nut lines first.

[@hannahappa]

This episode used to scare the crap out of me as a kid. I AM ALSO GOING TO NEED KENNY AND MONTANA TO WATCH ADVENTURE TIME

[@Rogue_Vigilante]

The "Not S+P Approved" line on the party flier has a hilarious origin. Basically, Alex Hirch had to fight the Disney S+P on a number of insanely small details, and he released some of the more ridiculous ones a while back. You should check it out after you finish the show, it's a laugh. Originally, that line was supposed to be "Bottles will be spun" but S+P did not allow it to be in the show and they did not budge. So the line was changed to Not S+P Approved, which they begrudgingly accepted.

[@jacobweston9947]

Adventure time is such a great show, you guys should definitely watch it!

[@FluffyUnicornEX]

Adventure time reaction would be dope!

[@sanashi27]

Amazing that this was posted on Halloween lol. We don't have that here in the Philippines so I can't relate to the Trick or Treating but it looks like fun. Who doesn't want free candy? We do have one for Christmas where we'd go to each house on that day to wish the residents a Merry Christmas and get money lol (relatives and people we actually know give higher amount of money) so I can relate to not being allowed to do that anymore once I grew up. The monster for this episode is, I think, inspired by the character No Face from the Studio Ghibli movie Spirited Away. If you guys haven't seen it, I suggest it (also any other movie from that studio).

[@alexholbrooks9694]

I would love if yall watched adventure time

[@Step43099]

Adventure Time would be a great series to react to but it's a very weird bag because the first season or 2 is very random stuff that doesn't make a lot of sense but all the crazy lore and backstory doesn't come in and start giving context to everything till I wanna say Season 3ish. That being said though I'm sure y'all would love Finn, Jake, and the cast enough to carry you through plus the episodes are only like 10 minutes long I believe so it wouldn't be impossible to do 2 episodes per reaction since they aren't long

[@TastySalamanders]

Adventure Time is great. Though to repeat what others have also said; if you do react maybe do 2-3 episodes per video since individual episodes are short and there is a lot of zany stuff. (The Distant Lands specials and Fionna and Cake mini-series could probably do one episode per video though)

[@ameen1443]

Thats some perfect timing right there

[@thegreendragon5390]

They actually skipped an episode ahead to line this up. They’ll double back next week, but we don’t have any continuity issues this early in from such a small rearrangement.
