    I hope this season isn't all about politics

    Thought it was a pretty good episode myself.
    I see a lot of posts online regarding people complaining about serialization, I don't mind this approach of having a main theme to an episode with some light serialization.

    The ICE detention scenes were classic south park.

    Very good opening episode. Old cartman is back

    Are they doing this continuation thing with the episodes again ??

    The Mexican Joker hand puppet scene had me in knots. Marvellous


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,058 ✭✭✭Unearthly


    I loved the Mexican joker stuff but strangely the Randy story didn't do much for me

    I thought this was really good, classic South Park.

    Love the show but feel they are running out of steam tbh.

    The latest episode was good and in fairness had something to say about China but I just think in the past they would have said it better - cartoon wars/imaginationland


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,854 ✭✭✭✭silverharp


    it was a good episode, lovin the way South Park threw shade at China on Twitter with a mock apology , hopefully the Chinese ban backfires and more Chinese people watch it out of curiosity

    Dead duck.

    I thought Band In China was superb. The show isn't running out of steam at all as far as I'm concerned.

    Didn't like this week's one Assburgers did the vaccines cause Autism stigma very well with a funny and smart story this one had its laughs but Artistic just wasn't funny. Randy is getting stale and overused. He's a dickhead hipster gone way past the PC stuff, Cartman was Cartman funny in small doses. They're getting in their own way with some of the jokes.

    Getting bored of Tegridy Farm. I was never a big fan of it in the 1st place either


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 39,457 ✭✭✭✭PTH2009


    Mixed season with only 4 episodes left

    Last weeks episode with the mummy was good classic south park humour

    Hard to knw what story the final episodes of the season will have


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,058 ✭✭✭Unearthly


    That episode has won me back. Macho Man Randy Savage lmao :D

    Have to agree it was classic South Park and well done.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,176 ✭✭✭1huge1


    Really enjoyed that episode, really think they conveyed that there is usually a grey area when it comes to certain issues and they showed that in the most South park way possible.

    Glad the Tegridy farms segment is over, it had its good moments but I don't think it needed to go on as long as it did, but always happy that they are trying something different.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,896 ✭✭✭Hande hoche!


    Impressed that Scott got his own episode.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,075 ✭✭✭steve_r


    Yeah, thought it was a really good episode


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 39,457 ✭✭✭✭PTH2009


    loved this weeks episode

    really wish they would go back to the old way and have 14 episode seasons broke into 7 in the Spring and 7 in Autumn/winter


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,282 ✭✭✭✭RobbingBandit


    Scott's dad talking down no one wants to see anybody/everybody get their own show love the south park guys **** all over themselves so subtly

    Theres goes another season

    Pretty decent season with a good few laughs with the last 4 episodes being very strong. Last weeks was by far the best of the season imo

    Back in September 2020


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,282 ✭✭✭✭RobbingBandit


    Very disappointed we didn't see garrison in the oval office sing meeerrrry ****ing Christmas to youuuuu

    The writers are in dreamland now with what's going on in the world

    Would love to see how South Park reacts

    Well if they're back on at the same time as the last few years, they'll be on at election time. Which hopefully means they won't have time for any more Tegridy Farms bullsh*te

    I'd not be surprised if they rope in Trump's fascination with the malaria medicine to tie into it. Tegridy Farms marijuana being the cure, big business buying it selling it on higher etc.

    I betting they blame Randy for Covid19 he brought it back
    from China.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 39,457 ✭✭✭✭PTH2009


    Season 24 starting the end of September apparently

    God knows what there going to do if they use Coronavirus as a subject


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,075 ✭✭✭steve_r


    As much as I love them, they haven't been hitting the mark for a few years now, compared to how biting their satire used to be.

    There's ample material for them to work with, but that's been the case for a few years now.

    I've really enjoyed the writing in the two games (FBW, and TSOT) and I just get the sense the guys are more motivated for those type of larger one off projects, rather than the grind of a multi-episode season.

    Having said all that, watching Tenet last week and now I'm really hoping for a South Park take on that concept!

    Hope they go after President Ye

    He's gonna get all his fish homies to vote
