Sickofancy

To preface this, I am a huge South Park fan. Been watching the show for almost 20 years.

This episode was not it, the storyline and plot was very slow in pacing and lacked the creative charm of the older episodes. Currently the show is making fun of the same topic without going further. Yes trump is like a middle eastern dictator and has a small peepee, but this episode didn't go deeper or try to bring up any new jokes or ideas around the subject. Yes Randy's obsession with tegridy frustrates the family, we have seen this before and at this point it's no longer funny. The chat gpt scenes got stale very quick, it seemed like I was watching the same conversation play out in every scene. I was expecting the AI to bite back at Sharon or it turns out that AI is an evil entity, just SOMETHING. But no, instead it was "great idea, would you like that made into a business plan?". Not really the standard of writing we are used to from the show, I laughed once the whole episode, when typically I'm struggling to breathe from laughing.

I get that the reason why Trey and Matt are going hard on Trump, all these episodes would piss him off, but they've proved their point. Matt and Trey can take the piss out of anyone they want and won't be taken off the air. As someone who isn't American, it's a bit hard to watch them make joke and reference American politics all the time, it's a little isolating for us viewers. And that's not to say I don't enjoy the politics jokes, but the jokes that anyone can understand includes Hilary Clinton having a snuke up her snizz or the election being held so they can stage a heist!

I love the show, and I hope they go back to the some of their roots and like woodland critters worshipping Satan, or Jimmy and Timmy joining a black gang. I hope to see this type of unhinged humour again.

In this one Stan's father has lost a lot of his employees because of the ICE raids. So he goes on Chat GPT for some new ideas. Oh, and we also see the President get gifts and there are more jokes about his...well, you know. Not as hilarious as the last two eps of "South Park" but I still get some good laughs out of this one. Oh, and Satan really isn't enjoying himself here, is he?

Not as good as the last two this season, but still enjoyable with some good laughs. Seeing Randy depend solely on Chatgpt for everything emotionally was a funny plot and sharp satire of how certain use the app as therapist. Saddam Trump as a character is wearing thin, I hope he is retired for the rest of the season.

While the series is still hard-hitting, this season feels slightly misdirected. It seems to aim at targeting the powers that be, which is a fair target. But satirical humor works best when it confronts self-righteousness, hypocrisy, or corruption, by exposing double standards, double downs, or attempts to silence criticism. That's where satire finds its purpose: holding a mirror to the absurdities of those who think they're above reproach. When it doesn't resonate with reality, it just becomes poop-slinging, which is boring, and what's left veers into the bizarre. Humorless partisans, however, often applaud these efforts - praising the target, the message, or the outrage, without caring much about the quality. As evidenced by many other reviews, it's just dishonest.

So far, this has been one of the weakest seasons, which ironically underscores just how great a show South Park is, because I'd still recommend watching it. It's funny 🙂

This is one of the most biting and clever political satires that I've seen before in South Park. We see all of the hilarious and deep writing characters, this is a hilarious and deep political satire.

The writing is top notch, a hilarious political satire with a funny ending. We all love political satires, but this is one of the most gripping and political yet.

A hilarious masterclass and beautiful animation. 10/10 masterpiece.
