There is a very specific, unique brand of rivalry that exists between twins. You're always wondering who the Alpha twin is.

When I was a kid, I was obsessed with UFOs in particular, and the paranormal. I grew up in the '90s, which is when The X-Files was at its zenith.

My goal with Gravity Falls is to make people as paranoid and insane as I was as a child, and I'm delighted to see it's working!

I remember as a kid being scared of the things that go bump in the night, but I was way more scared of adults.

In terms of creative engagement, I just love being able to produce, produce, produce. You don't always get it perfect, but it has much more of an improvisational element, and you learn.

Once you train an audience to look for significance, they start to find it everywhere.

You can look at a finale as chance to make an impact or a statement, to shock people or shoot a big cannon and make a loud noise.
