  2. I feel that deep in my soul. I’ve emotionally disconnected until 2025.

  3. Imagine thinking your cartoon has to either cover the election or go off the air lol

  4. These guys were three years late to “Karen” jokes so whatever works. The ozimpec special was funny but everything else from them lately has been pretty lame.

  5. One of my all time favorite episodes was the one with the ATF and the hostage negotiation team lol

  6. On another post it says they are not returning until paramount gets its shit sorted out.

    So which is it?

  7. they’re still scarred from Hillary losing and ruining the arc they had planned that year half way through the season. and they lost garrison (for awhile) in the bargain.

  12. Good choice. They played around a bit with Mr Garrison in the last season, so I feared it would become a whole thing for the new season.

    I imagine they tried writing for it, but thought it all sucked. How would you even cover this year’s election anyway? You can’t satirize this stuff.

  13. They’re cowards who, when they did have an effect on politics, had a deeply negative one.

  14. As disappointing as this is to hear, I get it man. We’re all having less fun.

  16. REMEMBER:

    Their response to the memberberries plot basically disappearing like all memory of Kenny’s many deaths in the first season is that even they were in shock over the result of the 2016 election.

  17. Has South Park ever done an episode skewering millionaire Libertarians?

    I know the stance most people have is that they ‘go after everyone’ but I stopped watching South Park decades ago.

  18. It’s not that looking old is bad, but when I think of Parker and Stone, I just think of them in BASEketball.

  19. Or how about just make episodes not covering the election and have fun? Lol
