| − | + | During the marathon were segments during the commercials of each episode, titled "'Old Man' McGucket's Conspiracy Corner," in which a puppet of [[Old Man McGucket]] talks about his conspiracy theories regarding the anomalies in [[Gravity Falls, Oregon]], as well as other observations he's made about the town. Some of these theories and observations are true, while others are either incorrect or unproven. |
|
| + | Apparently McGucket was only given a corner because they "don't trust him with a whole room." His "corner" consists only of real objects, with no cartoon animation.

"Old Man" McGucket's Conspiracy Corner Marathon was a special Gravity Falls season 2 marathon which aired twice on April 19, 2015. They included special segments that were written and directed by Scott Jones.[1]
Synopsis
During the marathon were segments during the commercials of each episode, titled "'Old Man' McGucket's Conspiracy Corner," in which a puppet of Old Man McGucket talks about his conspiracy theories regarding the anomalies in Gravity Falls, Oregon, as well as other observations he's made about the town.
