The show was supposed to be 3 seasons (60 episodes), but because we already figured out that Stan had a brother, they compressed seasons 2 and 3 into one rushed season.

I would have loved it if they hadn't done this. Tbh (please don't kill me) I think Alex Hirsch was smart to end the series when he did. It was at the end of the story arc and the rest of the episodes would've been a little pointless, even if they were good. The show would've become obsolete, and we'd be wishing it'd ended earlier. Basically it would've turned into Spongebob. I'm still pretty upset that one of my favorite shows ended though. (Blarg! Too many quotes! XD)

Alex even said in an interview that he would have done another season but only had about 10 episodes left in him (Without out Gravity Falls feelig dragged on and loosing it's charm.) However Disney only does seasons in sets of 20s
