South Park at its peak. I lost my shit at the Rickroll .
I was expecting something better after the election but south park failed to impress me this time.
Maybe I have gotten too mature for the show, not sure if it's really gone down hill or I am just burned out on it and just doesn't do anything for me.
6.2/10. And this is the problem with the season-long arc idea (an idea which I love by the way) for a show that's dictated, in many ways, by current events. When you start building to your arc's conclusion based on what appear to be the likely results of an election, and then the election takes a giant left turn, it can leave the episode right after, where you're clearly having to change gears, feeling kind of aimless or slapped together.
So when Bill Clinton (with his good buddy, Bill Cosby) starts his "Gentleman's Club" it seems like it would make more sense if he was actually First Gentleman. The Member Berry brain washing feels like an odd direction to take things. And while the James Bond riffing was amusing, the reasons for Hillary to send Gerald into the troll trap feel less convincing. Even Cartman's big Mars plan has the sense that it's coming out of nowhere, despite his Mars-daydreams in the prior episode.
I'm glad that the show has gotten more ambitious with its storytelling, but the team behind the scenes was scrambling after an unexpected Trump win, and it showed, with the whole effort seeming much more slapdash and stitched together than usual.
where is kenny? i miss him
show's running great. I loved self-contained before, and the current tied episodes. Love how all of the characters have changed somehow, and how they are adapting to everything happening around them. Can't wait for more!!!
Damn. South Park is on fire. This episode was fiiiiiiiiine.
Really strong episode, some very funny parts. Looking forward to what's next.

I LOVE South Park, but this just was a "hey, we deliver a show a day after great events! we're current". Not funny, kinda messy. I don't know, I liked it better when each episode was self-contained.
