from my experience you better watch this mystery and top tier comedy show NOW!1!!1!!! its so damn good i watched it two times, and although people may call it short with only 40 episodes, it was for the greater good as people will stop watching the rest of the new series and it would die out.
who cares if its sad in some episodes.. THATS THE POINT, THATS WHAT MAKES IT EVEN BETTER. people say its disturbing, even scary but if you are at least 10 i dont think you will cry like a lil baby. it has demons? what, you think it will haunt you? come on, its just an amazing show for people of all ages. the humor is amazing not just for kids but adults and teen and adults (maybe)
the characters range from all personalities like how pacifica is spoiled but ends up being meh, dipper who is adventures, mabel who is goofy, grunkle stan who is a scammer, uncle ford who is smart, robbie who is emo, wendy who is strong, and waddles who is cute.
in conclusion, the only reason i think you shouldnt watch the show is because of your religion or something and if youre a parent reading this and you dont want your youngling to get influenced with some harsh statements and attidute, then find another show.
ITS GREAT PLS WATCH IT
yea its overrated but so what
