South Park Season 15

Just remembered that I fell asleep half-way through that episode.

south park should have finished at its pinnacle on season 10

south park seems like its empty, where have all the classic side characters gone to, it just doesn't feel the same anymore.

Parts of the last episode felt like it was written by R/Atheism.

that's my biggest problem with more recent seasons. In the past it felt like there were all these characters with quirky personalities, bizarre plotlines that vaguely tied into current events, & a constant barrage of jokes. Now it actually feels like something that was made in a week, with the writers going "okay, let's do, uh...*thing in the news* meets *movie*" & then struggling to fill 20 minutes with that concept.

S16 E09 Raising the Bar - was perfect.

Last week's episode was good too. But holy hell, i enjoyed Raising the Bar. watmm, get on it.

New eps? On it.

Saw the T.M.I episode for the first time last night. I was pretty much lol'ing all the way through.

i stopped around season 12-13 i think.. few months ago i've tried 2 episodes from the season 14 or 15 & i didn't smile once: allways stupid gimmick episodes about the news.... common let's make some crazy shit with cartman & butters!

I used to be a huge fan but got about 4 episodes through series 15 before I just gave up - The writing just got so appalling.

Last night's episode was great. It was all over the place just like South Park should be.

I like the new season.

Same here, I feel like they're still pretty damn good, even with more forgettable episodes recently. Part of the reason I started to feel the newer seasons weren't as engaging was the fact that pop culture is already so absurd that their typical parody seems redundant. Well sure enough, they addressed that in the Honey Boo-Boo episode. I actually want to watch both this episode and the sarcasm one again, and that's an urge I lacked with many episodes in season 15 and 16. They've said they'll end the show when they don't feel as motivated or proud of their work - I still hold them to that.

The sarcasm one was good, but incessant sarcasm just isn't that funny as a premise.

I haven't seen Honey Boo Boo yet, but it looks to have a much more 'South Park' premise than the safety-fication of American Football.

*bump* ^~^

"Let Go, Let Gov" is the first episode of the seventeenth season of the animated television series South Park, and the 238th episode of the series overall. The episode will debut on Comedy Central on September 25, 2013.

Sweet. It's a shame that this season will only be 10 episodes though.

it is.

but im not complaining just yet. maybe the shorter run will mean a stronger focus, better quality, etc.

watching that doco '6 days to air, i can completely appreciate that it must be a complete drainer.

Anyone seen Book of Mormon?

I thought it was relentlessly hilarious and just knowing enough to appease both high and low-brow comedy fans. The songs are all catchy as fuck. Choreography at just the right level of cheesy. Pacing perfect. Characters are sharply written and the actors seemed perfectly suited.

I feel pretty safe in saying that it's the best comedy Parker and Stone have ever produced.

I can't wait to see it. I lost my shit in a hospital waiting room reading a New Yorker review of the musical.
