I was there all the way back in August 1997 (I think it was August) anxiously waiting the premiere episode of South Park at 10PM on a Wednesday. And wow did I laugh my ass off. The show continued to give me nearly two more decades of hilarious episodes. I can't watch it anymore. What was once the most biting, non-partisan satire, is now just the same old tired, woke crap that we get from everyone else. What a damn shame.
The show had a run, a glorious run of eleven phenomenal seasons.
Season 12 is where it went bad and never recovered.
Sure, it had some great episodes: Major Boobage, Ungroundable, Elementary School Musical, Super Fun Time, and Canada on Strike were all nailed on classics. But it was the first season where bad episodes outnumbered good ones, and the bad were some of the worst in series history until recently.
Tonsil Trouble and Brittney's New Look were horrendously bad, not to mention the Obama's ball-sniffing episode About Last Night. Then there was Eek a Penis and The China Probrem, and the awful two part Peruvian pan flute Pandemic 1 & 2. Overlogging was just disgusting Randy slop that was foreshadowing his worthless center staging to come. And Breast Cancer Show was meh: needlessly offensive and weak, but not as bad as the worst of season 12.
It only got worse after Season 12. Good, even great episodes would come along, but the show has never returned to form. It's been twenty years of a gradual descent into madness with only the occasional Board Game Girls or The Pandering to remind us of what this show used to be and could have been still.
I don't take it personally. I felt like South Park truly started to lose it when they introduced PC Principal. I never cared for the gimmick or really liked the character.
It was telling and shameful that they decided to avoid politics during the Biden years, despite the surplus of raw comedy material. I then found out their lawyer is a good friend of Hunter Biden, so it made sense.
I simply must disagree with this take. I just watched the episode and I can see how butt hurt this could be to the pro-Data Center topes like Billionaire Shark Tank Judge Kevin O'Leary; That liar has been lying thru his nose about what has doing on NYC with his data center He's doping what all these Wal street pricks do, privatize the profits while making the debt these companies incur as public!
O'Leary is lying like the rest do and he knows it. In this case while their efforts were to satisfy their Stage 3/4 TDS fix the truth is the South Park guys nailed this to all but those defending the billionaires building these things and NO they are not going to be Americas secret weapon but they will be Wall streets secret weaponed for profit!

I love Overlogging and Eek! A Penis. 🤣🤣
I've said this before, but it's worth repeating. Never change, Dems.
You may be a little "off" sometimes, but it takes a reserved and reasonable man to see something he loves roasted and reply with good nature.

Comedy can ONOY work when natural
