A biography for Alex Hirschhasn’t been written yet.
“Yeah, my first love was 'The Simpsons,' but in terms of movies and stuff, I loved 'Back To The Future,' I loved 'Jurassic Park,' I loved 'The Truman Show.'”
“I think Ferraris should always have roses in them, it looks amazing.”
“I've driven Ferrari 488 GTB, the 488 Spider, the Mclaren 570s and 540c, the Bentley GT3R, GT Speed and V8s, Mercedes AMG GTs, Lamborghini Huracan, and many others.”
“I was a radio presenter in Dubai for five years.”
“We passed a sign for Boring, Oregon. We never went there, but I was positively enchanted with the idea that there was a town called Boring. 'Gravity Falls' is partially from what I imagine Boring might be like. Or maybe the opposite of Boring, Oregon, would be 'Gravity Falls.'”
“When I was a kid, back in the days before cell phone cameras, I had disposable cameras I took a lot of pictures with and I just remember something always went wrong.”
“With the finale episode of 'Gravity Falls' our job as storytellers is to finish all the things we've started.”
“I always designed 'Gravity Falls' to be a finite series about one epic summer-a series with a beginning, middle, and end.”
“It's weird because we live in this age of reboots. Everything is getting rebooted: 'The X-Files,' 'Twin Peaks.' We have shows like 'Gravity Falls' that were inspired by these shows, that are now ending and being followed up by reboots of the shows that inspired them.”
“One day I'd love to release a coffee table book of all the crazy notes I got from Disney Channel's S&P and legal department.”
“I love the idea that if you watch something twice, three times, four times, you'll continuously notice new things.”
“I used to cover track events for my radio show, and one day, as a thank you gesture, Bentley called me asked me whether I would like to test drive the Flying Spur. I was in dreamland.”
“I was obsessed with the Loch Ness Monster, I would look through these books in the library and dream about visiting Loch Ness one day... That stuff was really kind of what I loved as a kid.”
“One of the interesting things about making a kids TV show is that you are in living rooms all across the world and you never know who's watching.”
“I remember when I was a kid, whenever you'd see cartoons cross over with each other, it always ranged from a delightful, magical surprise to a cynical, annoying cash grab.”
“When I was 15 I did birdcalls on the David Letterman show, but I have since burned all video evidence of this.”
“One of the nice things about not working on a TV show anymore is that I'm not on any particular kind of clock.”
“I feel like the best kids shows aren't just for kids.”
“In Dubai, we spend too much of our lives in cars; we shouldn't be wasting it in something boring, but rather enjoy every minute in something we love and appreciate.”
“Ninety-nine percent of people who drive cars are not car experts.”
