South Park + Its Political Sperging (?) Thread - Season 26 ongoing!

[Gimmick Account]

This new episode he literally complained about not being to laugh at jews getting angry on TV anymore because they cancelled NPR implying he watched it because they were suffering and he found it funny.

The R in NPR stands for radio.

Erm, fact check, sweetie. You are referring to PBS, not NPR.

They already did Cartman as Glenn Beck S13 EP 13 Dances With Smurfs.

It's universally regarded as a very mediocre episode.

Quest for Ratings was them doing satire on news with the kids acting like kids doing their homeroom morning news. Those are the more timeless and classic episodes because they weren't hyper focused on current events and hot-button social issues. Now every episode is stale within a week of airing to the point where they are delaying this week's episode by seven days to get the 'freshest' possible take on whatever they are making next. They are so reddit driven that they are scheduling the show around fan reactions now.

I still laugh that Trump watched the episode then got upset enough to comment on it. Resulting in the best promotion that South Park has had in decades. If they were smart they'd have Trump attempt to make reservations and get turned down at Casa Bonita and see if the orange retarded faggot makes a public comment on the restaurant for more free publicity. Have the deepfake Trump roll around naked near the cliff divers into the pool.

South park is deader than a roadkill and the only way it attracts attention is from its summer rot and that brings in retards from all spheres. You have the ex liberals who are now conservatives taking the mockery to the chin and cattle ranchers like nerdrotic saying that "it makes fun of everyone", the only people interested are just old dogs man...I am a zoomer and the only things that is funny about south park is the shitposts or the whacky stuff that happens in the show, i dont want to take a lecture or have "oh I know this is happening!" segments as comedy anymore. I cant give a fuck about ICE or trump or any thing political.

Just make a story of 4 kids who rip on one another, go on an adventure that has a cozy story to go with and then maybe add something satirical, like the finest example of them doing this is the butters special episode, the whole show mocked Mr scotch being a closeted homo with old tropes from hollywood and than in the end added the satire "of some puerto rican guy" mocking suspected murderers like OG simpson and the that one congressman (shit so old i cant even remember).

 

[pork and beans]

Say the Jews control America and should be gassed. Say niggers are inferior to the White Man. Say women should be slaves to men. Say faggots are all pozz-loaded child molesters. Let Hollywood cancel me

If one goes by past episodes It doesn’t look like they would agree with any of that, they are hippie contrarians, not Aryan chud overlords

I feel like so many people must’ve watched that episode without even knowing who that was
Same with the Jackin it in San Diego episode except that one is funny as fuck and not meh

COULDNT AGREE MORE… literally all South Park characters are funny and they are so varied because they all reacted to the satirized topic differently. Stan and Kyle were always kind of Matt and Trey with a filter but now its even worse, it applies to ALL characters and they don’t really have any semblance of personality

Quest for ratings had elements of ripped from the headlines to it. It talked about Robo tripping and the early 00s tend of teenagers and college students chugging cough and cold medicine to get high/hallucinate shit.

the wife and I mostly liked that episode for the kids news and shit getting increasingly stupid and loud, but we've worked in newsrooms that suffered from focusing on bullshit at the expense of news so stuff like the pandas and Jimmy's frustrations really hit home for us
the Cartman/Glenn Beck/Avatar/Wendy thing was okay but hit a little better when new as it came out a few days ahead of Avatar iirc, not like it was some herculean task to guess the basic plot beats of the movie

it's a very nicely mid episode

 

[RybenZ999]

Just to show you all how overhyped this episode is. imdb is rating this episode as the second best episode of the show behind Scott Tenorman. People really think this episode is better than Make Love, Not Warcraft, Fellowship Of The Ring, Good Time With Weapons, etc. Even if you're the biggest Trump hater, you have to admit how overhyped this episode is.

No fucking way. There is literally ZERO fucking way. Did people really give it that high of a rating just because it has "Orange man bad" in it? The worst part is, I know The_Donald fags would have done the same if they made the exact same episode but with Biden instead.

Politics has fucking mindbroke ln people. No wonder Matt and Trey signed a deal for another several seasons. They could exploit "my team vs your team" mentality for the rest of the show's run.

 

[RybenZ999]

Everyone in this town's ridden your horse.

I listened to the DVD with commentary years ago. They get sloppy drunk and Trey starts ranting about how he's worth $7-million at that point, so she must regret the way she treated him. He kind of says it in a joking way, but it's one of those jokes where you can feel the seethe behind it. Something like, "The guy she's with now fixes cars and I'm worth $7-million dollars! Oooops!"

Tbf if I were in his place, I would've probably done the same thing as well. Finding out that my fiance cheated on me just weeks before our wedding would have made me at least a little bit petty.

Quest for Ratings is one of my favorite episodes along with Casa Bonita as instead of topical, the points were largely timeless. All that effort for barely scratching 50 viewers is what makes it hilarious.

You're just unintentionally describing another piece of comedic media that went to shit due to external politics dogma.

 

[Jace on ice]

Do non politispergs even know who Charlie Kirk is? I mean I know he has a shitty low rated talk show and whines about Isreal but he's not exactly an Alex Jones or a Joe Rogan that literally everyone knows through memes and cultural osmosis.

I suspect a lot of normies and casual watchers are going to be confused by this.

To a hammer everything is a nail lol

I’m sure most Americans have seen his face… but enough to recognize him AND laugh at a reference…? Many people might just go “oh… that guy… right. lol”

additionally, I know South Park is American first and foremost, but I doubt non Americans know OR care about Charlie Kirk.

I know OF Charlie Kirk, but honestly I don’t really care enough to soy jack gape at the reference

 

[harmy.kook]

would have

Yeah... But SP probably won't until till it's considered "OK" from the rest of their ilk

You would think they'd have Eric parody someone well known and relevant like Andrew Tate or Joe Rogan or something but it's pretty clear that South Park is just the reddit show now and they're not even trying to relate to the public, or tell jokes, or be funny.

It should be fairly clear by now that Trey and Matt and their writing team are not making a show for the audience anymore, and just making a circle-jerk for themselves.

 

[Kyria the Great]

Though the episodes I love the most are where the kids are actually kids rather than grown ups that are pint sized. Is it that hard or have I outgrown South Park?

No they outgrew you, (nothing wrong with it) but stan is such a whiny pissant, kyle is fairly the same but his whole role was to be the aware one, cartman went from a spoiled rotten brat, to having an existential crisis every season, kenny became infantalized like he’s the little son of the group. And butters is the only one that anyone really likes at this point,

and reddit gives them their backpats like a special needs therapist. For being the special little boys they are.

Cartman as Charlie Kirk.

Cringe

Imagine giving enough headspace to go “that one specific right wing twitter grifter… he really ruffles my jimmies” enough to make an episode oy, whos next? The god damn quartering? Like seriously in 10 years time who’s gonna look back and go “oh yeah charlie kirk, that guy”

 

[harmy.kook]

The god damn quartering?

Nah, we know exactly who they're going to go swinging at (especially with ICE being the next target for [Coping & Seething]):

Homan and/or Miller, then RFK and MAHA the next episode.
