The Edge Of Sleep Tv Show Dropped Today!

The Edge of Sleep tv show dropped today!

I repeat….

THE EDGE OF SLEEP IS NOW AVAILABLE TO WATCH!!!!

Spread the word, go watch it now!

(It’s on Amazon Prime, btw)

I saw this one!!

It’s fantastic! It legit felt like a lost episode. From the two different plots happening at once, to making Ford have other character interactions outside of Dipper and Stan (who are having their OWN subplot adventure together!)

I don’t wanna give too much away, but DEFINITELY check it out when possible!

I’m sharing this on here for fans, both new and old out there that haven’t heard of it, but there is a little fan-made episode of Gravity Falls a small group made about a year ago that takes place before Dipper and Mabel vs the Future and it’s so GOOD.

The comedy is top notch, the voice acting is great, the writing for the episode feels like it was from the OG writing team of the show, the storyboarding brought me back to when we used to see those deleted/alternative scenes from the conventions years back. People were even commenting on how this fan episode is what we should have gotten instead of the road-trip episode in S2 and yeah, I agree.

It adds so much character for Ford with the amount of screen time he was given here, exploring his relationships with the other characters, including the much needed exploration of the relationship between him and Mabel, even diving more into his PTSD and how that’s affecting him and his decision making…..I put emphasis on that for a reason and the reason will be revealed in the video itself.

But seriously, check it out when you have the chance.

I’ve been BEGGING for a Stan & Ford sea adventures spinoff for YEARS!!!

It would not only be a fun show to watch (with the same GF weirdness/humor), but we’d get to see the Stan twins back in action and working through the 40 years they’ve been apart! And the fact that Alex says he could write so many stories of their adventures is PERFECT for me!!

Alex Hirsch, I try not to ask a lot from you man because I trust your masterful storytelling skills plus you’re feeding the fandom so much good content right now, but this is the ONE thing that I need so badly!!

Do you think Ford will eventually realize that his ego is really a big problem?

I think he does realize it at this point, at least to a certain extent. He knows Bill played him like a pipe both pre-betrayal and even in the Fearamid when Bill was asking how to pop the bubble surrounding Gravity Falls. He definitely knows his actions led to having to erase his brother's memory at point-blank range and we see just how guilty he feels about that in Journal 3. We also know from Book of Bill that he's struggling with an immense amount of shame due to the nature of his relationship with Bill and just how far gone he was (and we do see him regressing a little bit, in the way he hid the book from his family for so long before Mabel found it).

So, yes, Ford's on the path to recovery. This isn't to say that recovery is linear (it never is), and I remember this quote from the Alex Hirsch interview a few months ago:

"Those [Stan and Ford] characters at sea- it was so rich. They're really really funny, because they both have major major blind spots. -I can kinda write stories about them as a duo forever, because you can always excuse them both getting hyped on a bad idea for their own reasons, and then you can always come up with a reason for them to disagree about it, and it's always sweet to see them come together again, because they're so full of themselves, but they are also both so damaged they desperately need each other."

They're both going to regress at some point, meaning Ford's ego is going to rear its ugly head again. Maybe with not the same catastrophic consequences like coming close to ending the world and almost becoming a god-king of your shattered dimension with your triangular boyfriend who is reenacting his own trauma with you - but Ford's going to have to deal with it. Luckily, this time he has Stan around to keep him in check.

But I do also think Ford is due for some big realizations as they prep for their trip at sea and just how deep his, as he puts it in BoB, "monomaniacal ambition" runs and just how far the blast zone of collateral damage from his actions really extended.

(Side note? Going back to the interview with Alex, the way he's talking about the adventures and Ford and Stan at sea...I don't want to get anyone's hopes up but, oh boy, does it sound like something we might get down the road, if we are all very, VERY lucky).

Been meaning to post about the next case when it didn’t feel ‘too early’

Congrats @N3PTOON__ for winning the art commission for Sherlock & Co’s next case…The Red Circle! If this case didn’t look interesting enough just from the art alone, then you’re gonna love that it’s FOUR PARTS!! We haven’t had a four-parter since Silver Blaze!

It does make you wonder how they’ll revamp this story to make it as long of a case. Stay tuned for my part 1 reaction notes!

Steven Universe x Sherlock & Co au

I have this au brewing on my AO3 account, so if you're interesting:

The Red Circle Pt. 1 (SPOILERS)

First part is up, let’s see what we’re dealing with!

Oof John’s already voicing his frustration over the tech issues; wonder how bad it could be

I both love and hate the sounds of John cleaning the mic, it sounds like he’s digging deep into my brain

Okay, we’re just at the end of a case?

Oh yeah, the mic is definitely bugging out

“My dear companion Doctor Watson” UGH HOW SWEET

What is happening?? WHAT IS GOING ON??

“This is going to be an 8 or 10 parter” OH REALLY John??

NONE OF THE ‘CASE’ RECORDED, that’s actually hilarious

“But was the best adventure yet” how great was it that it makes SHERLOCK say that??

Not them all reenacting the ‘case’ HAHA

Yeah John, Sherlock needs to get back to hanging upside down-WHAT

Oof Sherlock really said “you waffle so much that sometimes your random words help me solve the case” (he’s not wrong tho)

THEY DO MOVIE NIGHTS!!!

Awww Mariana’s meeting up with a friend from Hudson’s, how nice!

God, the irony of voice actors being bad at acting is incredible

Sherlock WOULD be the person asking questions during movies (and pointing out inconsistencies)

I love how you can still hear the ‘movie’ going on even when Sherlock & John are talking

This little exchange

John: “Door knock”

Sherlock: “Very observant”

John: “Is that sarcasm there?”

Sherlock: “Exceptionally observant”

John: “Well done”

Sherlock: “Thank you”

Ah!! Chipmunk voice jump scare!

Sherlock: “Is that right, John?”, John: “It’s right big guy” JOHN CALLED SHERLOCK BIG GUY

I feel John’s pain, I HATE having to explain movies to people

OH GOD NOT A REAL-HOUSEWIVES-ESQUE REALITY TV SHOW

“Good God, put the gangster film back on” SAME SHERLOCK

Awesome how Mariana and Imani are already fans of the reality show

“Why do women like that kind of stuff? It’s cruel, it’s vicious, destructive-KILL HIM, SHOOT HIM IN THE EYE”—I will never get tired of this ongoing joke with John starting a point and immediately contradicting it at the end

The ‘bullets through the bum and balls’ exchange shouldn’t be as hilarious as it is, yet here we are

Oooooh, so THIS is how we get the Red Circle case (hopefully it’ll make up for the ‘unrecorded case’)

THE MUSIC?! HELLO??

“The game is afoot” YES MARIANA WE GET TO HEAR YOU SAY IT

Oof John that mic is REALLY messed up

And that’s it for part 1! I was NOT expecting a hilarious start for this one. I can only imagine what ‘case’ we missed (lol), but Red Circle sounds interesting enough! Also, it’s cute hearing more domestic moments with the main trio. I mean they have MOVIE NIGHTS!! The fanfics were TRUE! Anyway, this is a fun start and it’s just the beginning of our 4-part adventure, so stay tuned….
