Matt and Trey are killing it this season. And the best part is they own the IP so they can tell Paramount/Skydance to go fuck themselves at their leisure.

    Trump made South Park more relevant.

    Seems like every time a Republican is in office SP gets better.

    Didn't Stephen Colbert of the Colbert Report die? I thought Stephen Colbert of Late Night tried to bring that Stephen Colbert in for a segment and Viacom threw a hissy fit.

    Kind of waiting for punk music to do it's things.

    As a Canadian, the moment they went to paramount, the show was basically done. It disappeared from syndication and every other platform. And after all the tegridy farms stuff, I got bored of the show.

    This trump stuff is the only South Park I’ve seen in years

    How long until Trump outlaws it?

    He doesn’t have to. Someone at some point will preemptively comply. Most of what’s happening in the US now isn’t anyone being compelled by law- it’s a bunch of cowards bending over and submissively obeying what they assume Trump may well want them to do.

    I've been predicting since the election that sooner or later, Disney and Netflix are gonna purge all their LGBT content. I'm surprised it hasn't happened yet. Good thing Trump doesn't care about movies and TV as much as I do.

    Also a huge Trump ally is going to be the owner of Paramount Global, the company that owns Comedy Central. It’s probably why Parker and Stone have decided to satirize Trump this time, unlike during Trump’s first term.

    How could you even compare South Park to the Simpsons?

    The Simpsons is sometimes political. South Park is always highly political.

    Can I watch the new season on SouthPark.com or is it only on shit-ass Paramount+? Cuz that app has literally never worked for me.

    I typically find it via alternative distribution at fmhy.net

    My only other alternative to the official SP site would be piracy. The website is only slightly more convenient as I wouldn't have to download it before watching.

    I agree. Ironically it's hitting hard with a lot people that stopped watching it and came back for the Trump stuff.

    The ironic part being that it's funny to people because of nostalgia and not really the jokes I think. Because it's really fucking lazy imo. Like, is the Sadam/Satan and using that voice anything but just trying to hit the "remember this" really hard? Its not creative or really making a point. Though people try to act like it is.

    South Parks previous mockery with the 'member berries could literally be used to criticize how a lot of liberals are taking "comfort" in it. Seeing it as a "this too shall pass" and that we'll somehow return to normal in 2028 or something.

    I have no problems with people that enjoy it. But it's not funny to me AND i see it not moving the needle at all in getting people to do anything to resist these fascist. So I really can't appreciate it on literally the two things people act like it's doing.
