Its the first post Trump episode, which is good cause the Trump era was easily the least funny (and the bad takes stood out more than they did in the past, like when they had an incredibly transphobic episode in the same season where they basically apologized for their prior global warming takes and said amazon workers should unionize), but I just know its gonna have some cringe shit in it.
Like its gonna be our first real preview if funny comedians with dogshit political views who went really liberal during Trump can return to being funny, and my assumption is that they can't.
You know I learned something today: believing that democrats are all satanic child molesters is bad, but so is making fun of the people who believe that, it's just a difference in opinion after all.
Nah, the way they'll both sides it will be saying that there is no pedophile cabal. Which sucks cause they could do it by just pointing out both trump and clinton hung with Epstein. Like its one of those cases where you can both sides an issue and be morally correct.
Something reminded me of South Park a bit back so I downloaded the ones that aired when I watched it (seasons 1-14ish). They should just never try to be smart. When they're being intentionally dumb it's pretty great. Also the characters morphed from being kids to being mouthpieces and Cartman.
One of my favorite later episodes is the third goth kids episode. There's no politics to it, there's nothing smart about it, it's just a story that gets increasingly absurd and stupid.
They also just need to get rid of the continuity shit. It was funny for like the first season they did it cause it was new, but past that it just hasn't worked cause that kind of humor requires more planning than they do.
I haven't seen the show in like, 10 years. Are you talking about the one where they burn down the Hot Topic to stop the vampire kids? If so I have very fond memories of that one.
No, there's an even dumber one where one of the goth kids goes to camp and comes back emo.
I totally missed the South Park train. Was maybe 4 when it first aired. Should I go back to anything in particular? Hearing about ManBearPig is fucking cringe
The movie is absolutely incredible and holds up completely. Only real dated part of it is treating Sadam like Hitler, but in the South Park universe everyone who's not mormon goes to hell so you can kinda ignore that. Orgazmo also holds up fairly well as a fun dumb late 90s/early 2000s comedy.
For the rest of the show, how much it holds up depends on how much you can ignore their often very uninfromed political views. They've got absurdist humor down very, very well but their takes are often pretty crappy and the language can be fairly dated.
There are some funny episodes. Most of the topical episodes are incredibly dated, but the most well-like episodes are timeless. Mainly about how ridiculous kids can be rather than political shit.
