|''Gravity Falls''
|2012-2016
|Disney Channel, later Disney XD
|TV-Y7
|Inspired by the life of its creator, Alex Hirsch, this mystery/science fiction/horror comedy series follows twin siblings Dipper and Mabel Pines as they spend as summer in the fictional town of Gravity Falls, [[Oregon]], investigating the supernatural oddities surrounding the town with guidance from one of three journals left behind by an initially anonymous author.
On the one hand, it stereotypes capitalists as either "criminals" or simply being obsessed with money: the twins' Great Uncle/"Grunkle" Stan is introduced as a relatively simple character whose only goal in life is to fool the "world's dumbest people" with a tourist trap dubbed The Mystery Shack and filled with pretend supernatural phenomena, hoping to earn their money. Even worse, throughout the series, recurring incompetent police officers Sheriff Blubbs and Deputy Durland are employed to have homosexual feelings for one another, and this is confirmed in the series finale.
On the other hand, family and redemption seem to be central themes of the series in the long run. When Stan's long-lost twin brother, Stanford "Ford" Pines, returns from being trapped in another dimension and reveals himself as the author of the journals, the brothers come to grips with their personal flaws, and Stan shows how he truly regrets leading a life of crime, wishing things could have turned out differently and calling himself "the screw-up". He gets his chance at redemption when he and Ford together outwit Bill Cipher, an interdimensional dream demon and the series' main antagonist, and erase the monster from existence, which causes them to mend their relationship.
