Comedy Central’s South Park returns for historic 25th Season Wednesday, February 2nd
- Thread starter Smokeymicpot
- Start date
It's always the smallest things that set them off.
The show going full-on pro-weed is A-OK. A two-part episode apologizing to Al Gore and saying he was right all along is A-OK. A two-part episode that savages Amazon, big corporations, and showing the guy quoting Karl Marx as in the right is A-OK.
But revealing that Token is really Tolkien was a step too far?
And what exactly would they make fun of Biden for? The economy?
I guess they could bring up how he backtracked on student loan forgiveness, but I imagine people like this guy would call that "weak cuck shit"
I don't know why they think the creators of South Park would go after Biden for a couple of big reasons. One, they never go after boring presidents because it's not funny. There's very little against Clinton and Obama. Also if anything they're leftist libertarians these days. They hated Trump but even with him they didn't do it often because everyone else was doing it.
I think most of the appeal of South Park to Republicans is that they don't understand that Cartman and Garrison are the bad guys.
LOL. The entire joke was that he was so hard on himself for thinking that was his name, which is a play on the fact that people worry too much about being woke. It's not funny because he was wrong, it's funny because he's so concerned about being wrong.
Wait what the fuck…. Holy shit
Also, what clan are you in? I play that game a lot.
Only got into the game this year so I'm hopping around clans, current one is "dryskoolmusical"
Cool. I'm in "coon legends" which is our top team — we have other teams depending on skill level, I think like 3 or 4.
Tolkien episode was fucking great. Lots of belly laughs, got my ass good. I didn't know anything about the voice actor adrien beard, so they got me doubly lol
Did they change the voice actor at the end to an actual black guy after the meta 4th wall "doesn't even sound black" joke?
If so that's genius

Well, that was one of the best episodes I've seen in awhile. Wonder how long they had that idea in the back of their heads cuz it was genius.
Yes, Tolkien's dad was (primarily) voiced by Trey before this episode, now he's voiced by the same person as Tolkien (Adrien Beard)
They should have worked with the developers to have a patch to go live on wednesday that just changed the name, and only put "stability updates" or something in the notes.
That episode was an all-timer. Laughed out loud multiple times. This season is off to a very strong start.
first episode was middling, 2nd episode is practically a classic already.

Where did the money come from before this? Liane being a prostitute?
Then again, Cartman is the second poorest kid in school.
Bah, stop expecting continuity out of South Park.
I don't get why people are saying South Park changed Tolkien's names in episode write-ups and such. He was always Tolken. Do we have giant pieces of shit in here?
I loved both episodes.

Episode was meh. Felt like they had that idea for a while thought it was funny and used it for the week after the Super Bowl.
i'm glad they adressed the back arching stuff, this shit is abosolutely everywhere, always bothered me, lol
Had to look up what a cortado was. Real estate videos were pretty accurate, and him talking to the cameraman haha.
do matt and trey think rich/successful 'city people' are driving up home prices? do they not know that investment firms after the great recession have been buying up more real estate as a large part of driving up home prices in recent years?
also - and maybe it's just the folks i've been aware of - but the ones leaving bigger states and heading out to smaller states/towns have been republican wasps and not fit/'hip' liberals leaving cities for suburbs.
at least in the previous episode, they harped on white people who are afraid of being perceived of being racist to the point where they overcorrect too hard and make the conversation about themselves, and that's a real thing. i feel like the conflict in this episode was lazy observation through the lens of their conservativism/libertarianism. maybe i'm wrong about that/the housing market. idunno.

Plenty of people that grew up in cities/suburbs have been moving farther out to once rural areas and driving prices up since urban/suburb housing prices are ridiculous. Especially people that can work from home and don't need to commute into the city.
That's how it is in the Toronto area at least. Toronto and suburb prices kept going up so people started to look further away and then those prices went way up.

I was waiting for this one!
And he really sold that performance.
Best season in a long long time.
No serialization (so far at least) is such a welcome thing.
Though now with Tolkien living in the farm and Cartman losing his house, I hope there won't be any leadings into season wide serialization. Just give us old school dumb and witty episodes, that's all we need.
