Not really
Much like Mabel he really wasn't interesting and was more there to react to happenings instead of building up the show around him
How so?
In the end, Stan was moving the plot more then either of the twins.
Mabel wasn't really supposed to be a plot-heavy character anyway
Yes, but I'm probably biased because I think he's cute.
Dipper shorts
I like a protagonist who is young, wants to solve mysteries, and gets into things more than they can handle for their age. Dipper did that pretty well.
Agreed
I don't think they're as short as some people say they are
Wish we had gotten less "I gotta impress Wendy" episodes and more instances of him scaling into a proper occult detective. But I guess that was never the point of the show.
He had the brains to do that
For some reason Alex thought smaller scale stuff was more worth it. I remember how hyped I was when that old pinesquest message said Dipper was playing with fire, I was hoping to see him get into some really tough situations outside of endgame things. At least he had his moments.

They are the perfect length
Neither knee-length nor girly shorts length
Exactly
He was a pretty good protagonist. He also wears briefs
Between the two different lengths mentioned in , which would look better on him?
Should be shorter
If I had to choose, I'd go shorter than longer. But I definitely prefer that perfectly boyish sweet spot.
Yep
remove the socks and the t-shirt
I like the socks
Agreed. Good height for the outdoors
It should be Youngster Joey short
Remove all clothing besides socks and maybe hat
they look stinky, remove them
Weird ending to "Candy Monster"
Getting somewhat back on topic, what were 3 good things on the show in your opinion?
But... That'll leave him in his briefs?
how does his hat stay on
1.) The whole paranormal mystery focus and detailed underlying clues
2.) Cool redwood forest setting
3.) Pretty funny
4.) Nice music
5.) Fun characters
The socks stay
He fastens it pretty tightly so his goober mark won't show.
Wouldn't that reduce blood flow to his brain, this giving him a brain drain?
Well, he IS Mabel's twin
Maybe that explains why he goes full retard for Mabel
Cartoon logic
yeah, that makes them basically the same person
he might as well use her clothes already since she has more of them.
Oh yeah. But how would she react?
Ew, Dipper doesn't wash his clothes
Cheer up, Dipper. It's not that bad
that must be cold with just briefs on
imagine if he had to wear that all day because he lost a bet lol
are all of these from the same episode? wow
I think he'd get acclimated to it as time progresses
Mabel doesn't mind
Actually, she kinda did in her journal entry as Dipper in Journal 3
but what if there's a scene where he has to ride a bike down a rocky incline
He wasn't the protagonist though, think about it, did he really advance the plot? He was the episode filler for the stan brothers.
Good show, ending could have been better. Even a child understands you can't just wipe his memory and then suddendly he remembers everything again, did not work.
I'm thinking more of matching Mabel outfits
All of this. I recognize a lot of its flaws, but this show still makes me unreasonably happy and just seeing images gives me a warm comfort. Whether these threads are bitching about Mabel, Alex, or whatever, I'm just glad to see it still being talked about.
Because it was only brought to the EU last year ;p, I didn't even realize it was made in 2012, truly old as fuck.
>Because it was only brought to the EU last year ;p
Really? It has been dubbed in Spanish, French, German, Italian, etc. for years.
>I didn't even realize it was made in 2012
Either newfag, tourist, or retarded
Really? Disney channel or the free Disney channel? I saw it being broadcasted as a new series just last year or maybe 2018 on Disney XD in the Netherlands. I recognized the meme episode were they have boromir with "one does not simply walk into mordor" and it aged well.
No wonder the rule34 updates were so slow.
