South Park: The Streaming Wars Part 2

It's somewhat nonsensical and it relies on literal toilet humor. But it's entertaining and short enough that you don't get too bored by it. It's still a weaker South Park than seasons past and doesn't target as much of the current political climate but it does live up to the premise. Streaming services are helping create lower quality programming to fill their broadcast slots. This is a lower quality than normal for South Park but that could be simply because it's stretched out over 50 minutes instead of a tight 22.

This show has been going downhill for a while. While the new episode did contain some laughs, it was mostly toilet humor and nothing laugh-out-loud funny. It's not sure if it wants to be social satire or an adventure show. Either way I think Matt and Trey are getting too old to make a show revolving around 10-year-old boys, and now have to make the show revolve around Randy. This has also (as they admit in the episode) ruined the character of Randy as well.

I feel like they don't really know what to do with the show at this point and try to use stale memes (Karen) in order to stay relevant. They did something similar with the tiresome Mr. Garrison as Trump gag. It might be time to call it quits.

What's the point of repeating the celebrities backing up for pipi+? Being sarcastic? Once would have been enough. There's no fun in it at all and it's way too disgusting.

Tegrity Weed should've been a one- or two- episode thing, but it lasted for years and the idea of this weed thing never make any sense. Many characters had been out-of-character for a long long time, the most terrible ones were Randy and Garrison. Hope to see the whole show get to "normal" soon. I love South Park, I don't want it cancelled, or live on like the recent seasons.

I am happy there is also story arc for manbearpig - he deserved it - but I wondered: how did it fit into the story? Will he be back?

It's definitely Pipi+ :-)

Part 2 of "The Streaming Wars" is a return to the earlier days of South Park and the kids. I prefer this over part one and can tell they listened to their viewers opinions after part 1. They do have some kinks to work out, but this was a great hour-long special. Just pour yourself a stiff drink and enjoy the satire. God knows we all need that.
