'Gravity Falls' wrapping up

Los Angeles: Disney XD's animated television series "Gravity Falls" will end after its current second season.

Creator Alex Hirsch took to his Tumblr to announce that the series' next two episodes will be its last, reported Entertainment Weekly.

"There are so many shows that go on endlessly until they lose their original spark, or mysteries that are cancelled before they ever get a chance to payoff," Hirsch wrote.

"But I wanted Gravity Falls to have a mystery that had a real answer, an adventure that had a real climax, and an ending that had a real conclusion for the characters I care so much about. This is very unusual in television and a pretty big experiment, and Disney for their part has been enormously supportive."

The show debuted in 2012 to rave reviews. It centres on the experiences of twin 12-year-olds in the titular small town that has more to it than it seems.

It boasts an impressive voice cast featuring Hirsch, Jason Ritter, Kristen Schaal, and Linda Cardellini. There is no announced airdate for the series finale.
