Re: South Park
I actually really loved that two-parter. Being a cynical asshole myself, I can relate.

Re: South Park
The Assburgers two-parter was their last chance to make South Park worth something again (as a show.) They failed. They pulled back at the end, made Stan an alcoholic (as an end gag which they never revisited) and rolled back on every change they made during those two episodes.Poonoo wrote: ↑Sun Sep 24, 2017 9:39 pmThe getting old episode was proof of that. They can lie all they want and pretend it's all good but that episode was them venting their frustration at being stuck doing one thing.rabidtictac wrote: ↑Sun Sep 24, 2017 2:17 pmThey won't, because money.Throne of Dysentery wrote: ↑Sun Sep 24, 2017 12:06 pmTrey and Matt seem to have genuine contempt or apathy for the show, their audience, or both. If they hate doing it or just can’t be bothered anymore, then they need to end it because it’s getting painful.
I'm sure they do hate the show at this point. I'm sure they've hated it for many seasons now. But they've become the Simpsons they hated.
They are like internet nobodies, except they actually made good money.
It was very obvious that episode was Matt and Trey venting about the box they'd written themselves into. They almost saw their way clear of it (by making some fairly modest, but still meaningful changes to the show) but then didn't have the balls to stick it out. They must have decided fans didn't want a south park where Randy was divorced, Stan and the gang weren't friends any more and the series as a whole started to move into new territory.
Whatever they used to have, back when they made fun episodes, they don't have it anymore.
I'm not sure why they'd have wanted to play things so safe, considering how much money they have, but there you go. The result is what we have now: a shitty, bland South Park of stale jokes that are either so topical as to be completely unfunny a week from now (Faith Hilling) or else so Slowpoke that they're years behind the internet (SJWs and trolling.)
And yeah, Assburgers was great. I was hoping they'd stick with it, but the ending was a punch in the dick.

I like that one episode where they did a parody based on that thing that happened.

Re: South Park
Episodes like Insheeption, Jewpacabra and Faith Hilling have aged really well.

Re: South Park
Now you're talking in riddles. I can't tell if those episodes are real or not.
Leave it to a Californian to ruin a joke.
