Theres one I noticed in the Owl House. Alex Hirsch voiced the character "King" and then in one episode, said character says: "I've always wanted a people chair." This is clearly a reference to Weirmageddan.

I only just found this now and I have three things to say. 1: The adventure time one is probably a stretch since gravity falls didn’t invent the line “trust no one,” but I guess it’s still worth mentioning. 2: In Rick and Morty season 3 or 4 (I don’t remember) Ford actually appears for a moment in a window talking to a Rick. 3: Scooby do and Gravity falls would mark an amazing crossover. Dipper would definitely get along with Fred and I feel like Mabel will like everyone, but especially Daphne, Shaggy, and Scooby. Cause Daphne’s pretty and sweet, Shaggy is fun, and Scooby is a talking dog, she’d freaking love that. Anyways I’ll shut up now.

It's all in Amphibia: True Colours: When Marcy found a book in the library, which mentions the calamity box, the first page she opens has the human from Da Vinci but with Goliath from Gargoyles on the right side and Bill Cipher on the left side. Hop 'til you drop: When Sprig tries not to touch any of the sculptures, a sculpture of Bill can be seen. In the opening of season 3, a plushie from Gideon Gleeful can be seen. Apparently in one episode, there is a Gravity Falls code (the three letters back one). Deciphered it says: Dipcifica forever.

[@themagnificentsansandmylaz4115]

I literally had a dream where there wad a was a adventure time-gravity falls crossover I remember this: Dipper and Mabel are flying on Princess rainbicorn(at least i Think that was her name) and they are looking for soos, they find him on top of a mountain, he is semilar in appearence to ice King, but as soos. Mebel and dipper are happy but soos with peinguins Just looks at them, he asks what are they doing so high up. Dipper and mebel are suprised by the question, but dipper says he came for here. Soos is surprised, he doesn't know-how why they world come for him. He asks why. They are even more surprised, but they try to explain further. He still doesnt understand, so he says he will stay in ice kingdom, in HIS kingdom. Dipper and Mabel start to understand whats happening,so they ask last time if he's sure he wants to start, but soos says Yes... They fly away... The camera then shows one of the ice King crown gems behind a rock Pretty interesting dream huh?

The rick and morty reference with the coffee mug, pen and paper. It has some deep lore You see, when ford came out, he was wearing a suit identical to future rick, so that means ford was in rick’s dimension finding a gateway back to reality.

6:32 finally my two favorite shows have a reference

[@Snakesarec00L]

“Go grab your friends, it’s reference time!” That was perfect.

[@darkdg4106]

#1 is a stretch especially given that the randomly drawn character doesn't even have the same shirt that Soos always wears on, but not as much of a stretch as #9 is. If that was the case, you could say anything using the phrase "Trust No One" could be a reference to Gravity Falls. I didn't see any point in continuing the list after that, so given these previous examples, wouldn't be surprised if that is what you did.

[@danicsganda2932]

All these cartoons references make me wanna cryyyy

[@soy2330]

Ducktales and Adventure Time are most likely just coincedences "Trust No One" wasn't made by Gravity falls, there are many meanings to this, 1. It is a reference but very minor or 2. which is that there is a chance the Lich can come back and posesses someone. and with Ducktales, No Bowtie, No Hat, no limbs whatsoever, this is most likely a reference to the illuminati rather than Bill, though this has more of a chance of being a reference due to the fact that both shows are owned by Disney

[@vincents.1234]

It still amazes me how many references there are. It shows how influential Gravity Falls was to the cartoon world

[@jayceofspades7195]

Another Easter egg in Amphibia is during the opening theme music when they're back in Earth. Look to the bottom right of the screen as the frog robot attacks Anne and the Plantars and you'll see a small plush of Gideon.
