South Park (No apto para menores)

Because you may be the center of the joke here. Do you follow "influencers?" Do you hang on every word of a YouTuber or OnlyFans content creator? Do you rely on the latest modern trend, or the opinion of the hottest internet influencer to make decisions in your life?

If your answer if "yes" to any of the above, then you need help. Thankfully, South Park is here to the rescue! If you're a young Millennial or a Gen-Z, or one of the freaks of nature even younger than that, then you're in luck, because with this latest covert episode of South Park, you may be able to break free of your chains of social and digital conformity if you only listen to reason and not your stupid "in-the-loop" high school buddy!

This episode hits the nail on the head. Kids these days are more susceptible to modern trends than any generation before. It might be because they're more stupid, or simply more influenceable because the internet is so sneaky and misleading these days.

Regardless, this episode does what South Park does best: expose the hypocrisies of modern trends, and crosses the line as far as possible while doing so.

If you're a victim of social and digital manipulation, there is hope for you yet. Wake up, wise up, stay in school, stop buying into the latest trends, and BE YOURSELF!!! Oh, and fight bullying!!!

Cred is a sports drink that is all the rage at the kids' school and is a determinant of popularity - the more Cred you have, the more popular you are. Meanwhile, after a teacher at the school is discovered to been posting videos on Only Fans and making large amounts of money from it, Randy Marsh decides to become an Only Fans model.

Trey Parker and Matt Stone are in top form in this South Park special. Poking fun at influencers, unhealthy, unnecessary sports drinks, the superficiality of social media and popularity and the stealthy, underhanded marketing to children this special is a great send up of some the blights of our age. Done in their usual biting, over-the-top style this special is hilarious yet powerful and profound.

There are times when it comes close to being repetitive but the plot largely manages to avoid that with some very unpredictable changes of direction.

I liked the way they've built this special, it is much more grounded than the last special, and I think a bit weaker.

Or maybe it is so because of the subject involved: I'm not sure how serious is this in the USA, but I have to tell you that in Europe it's a big deal nowdays - children being "influenced" on social media platforms (mostly YT or Twitch), by grown-ups "influencers" sponsored by the betting companies, energy drinks, pawn-shops etc. Not to mention that video chatting industry, and of course OF are just the norm here.

Randy was just hilarious and stole the show, but I think the CRED subject was a bit too much for me, maybe they've should have added another funny subplot.

But overall I am happy that at least we got another special episode this year!

Thanks guys!

This entry into the South Park universe is bold and daring, perfectly capturing the show's unique mix of humor and social critique. It pushes limits while staying true to the irreverent vibe that fans have cherished for years.

Taking on the hot topic of influencers with a fearless attitude, the creators use satire to highlight societal issues that often get overlooked. Their sharp humor and keen observations really shine through. The film tackles complex themes with both wit and depth, and its unapologetic nature encourages viewers to ponder the absurdities of modern life, making it not just fun to watch but also thought-provoking.

The characters are just as lovable and outrageous as we remember, and their wild escapades set the stage for the film's sharp commentary.

What really makes "Not Suitable for Children" stand out is its knack for sparking discussions. While some might find the themes a bit controversial, it's this very willingness to tackle uncomfortable truths that turns the film into a noteworthy cultural piece. Trey Parker skillfully balances humor with a critical perspective, inviting audiences to laugh while also encouraging them to think deeply about the world around them.

From the social commentary of modern times, to subverting what your expectations are and going completely beyond the normal scope of even South Park.

Almost every aspect of this episode has the hallmarks of a great south park episode.

My young niece was obsessed with "Prime" this Christmas the soft drink that this episode untimely is about. An episode comply grounding in the moment.

Then also going as far as parodying Only Fans. Geniusly making Randy Marsh the centre of this arc.

It just works in a perfect whole that other recent south park epsiodes don't.

And then even going as far as joking about the illuminati and powers that be that allows this stuff in our society. It's a no hoild bared episode of south park that I'm sure will stand the testament of time.
