Trivia
- Gravity Falls creator Alex Hirsch has commented that "[For the voices] In terms of Mabel, I knew from the get-go that it’s got to be Kristen Schaal or there’s no show. I would’ve just stopped working. If we hadn’t gotten her, I would have probably quit." [1]
- She cosplayed as Mabel (complete with light-up sweater from the theme song) during the San Diego Comic Con 2013. The outfit was made by Alex Hirsch's girlfriend, professional costume designer Manzi DeYoung.[2]
