I liked it better when South Park looked like construction paper.
>>215565269>you could call it a stark difference
>>215565331
>>215565269Is it just me or does the bottom image entirely miss the point of the joke?
>>215565269yeah
>>215565364What was the joke?
Soul/soulless
>>215565463The whole town is a shithole.
>>215565269I liked it better when Trey listened to his writers and didn't fire them for minor disagreements
>>215565463The Pond is stark. So small it doesnt even deserve to be called a pond, but its the closest thing they have for a body of water in the middle of nowhere podunk mountain town. Yet they still feel the need to put up a sign.
What about Phil Collins Hill?
>>215565538Imagine being so booty blasted by Phil that they made fun of him for two episodes in a row.
>>215565269uhduntwuntet
they have extremely blatantly just been doing the show to milk more cash out of it and no other reason. i think the last thing they put any effort into whatsoever was their mormon musical. and it was pretty mid. they have openly just been collecting money from retards in order to pay for their black stripper wives and their children.
>>215565364Yes. Its like they completely forgot what south park is supposed to be.
>>215565589They just blew most of their collective fortune buying and renovating Casa Bonita. So it's kind of surprising that instead of trying to play it a LITTLE safe for the sake of financial security, they're purposely mocking Trump as aggressively as possible in hopes of prompting a lawsuit response. I don't even know why they would want to. "Wow, South Park is still relevant, they're even pissing off the White House!"? Like, we get it. South Park is an edgy show and CC still won't show Mohammad. What's the point of all this?
>>215565515qrt
>>215565631no i doubt it. they did casa bonita as a wacky publicity stunt and just for something to do. there isn't a chance that they blew anything on it. one of them is jewish.
>>215565269Man, I really wish they had ended SP on season 6 or something and just started a new show.
>>215565631They are playing it safe by mocking Trump. it's the only way they know they'll get views. same reason The daily Show is sputtering the shit that it does.You'll notice they're telling only the safest jokes about him.
>>215565500>>215565529Eh, still like Stark's Pond>>215565561They're more assblasted by Trump. Even the subreddit's tired of it
>>215565699Sure they made fun of people all the time, but they usually moved on to a new joke in the next episode. With Phil Collins they felt the need to mock him twice in a row.
>>215565727Literally every episode this season has Trump in it, even when it would've helped to not have him in it. It's just seething
>>215565648The renovations for Casa Bonita costed around $40 mil. I have no idea how much of that was out-of-pocket and how much of it were loans. But that's still a lot of money for two guys who are mostly living off South Park and Broadway money.
>>215565727At least he appeared in two episodes. Imagine if they had the modern mentality back then. Where every single episode of season 4 would feature Phil Collins. It would have been fucking awful and tiresome, and would have most likely ended up getting South Park cancelled at the time
>>215565764>>215565779Sounds awful. Good thing I haven't watched in over 10 years.
>>215565796Wish I did that as well. I got to say out of the last ten years there's only been like 3 or 4 good episodes that are worth watching. Besides from that you're not missing much
>>215565561yeah i never quite understood that
>>215565990They're gonna milk that shit until the end of his presidency. Might continue past 2028, if JD or someone else that close to Trump ends up being president. I miss the show when it was four boys going on wacky adventures.
>>215566016Something to do with the Oscar's at the time.
>>215565269>I liked it better when South Park looked like construction paper.Everybody did. S1 was a funny novelty when it first aired. Nobody ever imagined it would be on the air 25 years later having become a boring liberal social commentary with less relevance than the AI-generated Simpsons.
>>215566016>>215566089They lost the oscar for best song to him
They've become the type of preachy California faggots they used to rail against.
>>215566162They're old low test boomers now
I loved, LOVED, the first 10 seasons plus of South Park. Probably my favorite thing on tv. I haven't seen an episode in more than five years now. It's just embarrassing. They're like that guy who has pissed and shit his pants at a party but is too drunk to notice and thinks he's the coolest guy around. They need an intervention.
>>215565269i hate how all of the non old characters look. they give them more realistic heads and facial features
>>215566303Free Hat is ironic now...
>>215566265>guy who has pissed and shit his pants at a party but is too drunk to notice and thinks he's the coolest guy YOU'RE A TOWEL
>>215566265>>215566976Maybe they'll shit on people who think lazy Trump jokes are biting satire, but we'll see.
>how DARE a comedy show make fun of MY favorite droopy-faced, incoherent old man politician Seethe more. You will never be invited to the golden ball room
>>215567085>missing the point
>>215565269soul vs soulless simple as
>>215565269Same. Aside from current politics, I think the art style changed it for the worse. It looks like a generic "adult cartoon" cringefest instead of having SOVL.
>>215565779Obama or Dubya would fit the example better to be honest. They only did phill collins cause they were made about losing to him.
>>215565699>subredditgo back faggot
>>215565269>>215565515>>215565623>>215565659Show is so fucking lame these days. The characters act like boring real people, every second episode is about politics, the new artstyle is soulless as fuck. Cartman's mom used to be an implicitly bigoted slut and now she's a boring "struggling mom" who whines all the time. The town used to be a podunk shithole and now it's a Denver suburb. The kids used to be funny assholes and now everyone except for Cartman is a faggy goody two shoes. The show used to have antimorals and now they preach unironic morals.
>>215565659>Season 6I still maintain that season 6 was the last good season because it felt like it was South Park. Chef was still prominent and the boys were still assholes.
>>215567926The other kids are toned down, but they aren't goody two shoes.
>>215567926>The kids used to be funny assholes and now everyone except for Cartman is a faggy goody two shoesThis is the biggest one for me. Stan and Kyle have zero sense of humor now. They don’t make jokes or laugh at jokes. They get offended by everything. These characters used to be fun to hang out with, but not anymore
>>215565269Do they still use an ancient-ass SGI workstation to make these episodes? If so, I guess bottom is impressive technically, but it still clashes with the mood of the show unless it's being depicted that way for a skit.
>>215568061Are you missing the fact that kids like Jimmy and Ike were betting? I'd say that's still asshole behavior
>>215565631...I like Casa Bonita. They did a good thing with that.
"All the other kids are boring goody two shoes"Counterpoint: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=NasUtAmmcH0&pp=ygUVYmViZSBiZWF0cyB1cCBidXR0ZXJz
>>215567085Previously when they made fun of a politician or celebrity it was a one off episode, not every episode for entire seasons back to back.
>>215568061One of my favorite episodes is the one where all the kids frame their parents for "molestation" and Kyle dances in his underwear while wearing shades (Risky Business reference)If that episode came out today, Cartman would be the only one doing it.https://youtu.be/FILzt4eFW8s?si=LZrWic710PZVhvlS
When did South Park lose all of its soul? It couldn’t have been recently. Ten years ago at least.
>>215568559So you're ignoring this scene?https://sys.4chan.org/derefer?url=https%3A%2F%2Fm.youtube.com%2Fwatch%3Fv%3DNasUtAmmcH0%26amp%3Bpp%3DygUVYmViZSBiZWF0cyB1cCBidXR0ZXJz
>>215568061Kyle has been becoming his mother for close to a decade.
>>215568061Stan and Kyle have morphed into the same character with the same blase personality >uhh what dude yeah I totally don’t care about anything >pulls phone out Not having a personality isn’t a personality itself, it’s a GenX version of what they think teenagers are like
>>215565269They aren't spending that billion dollars on writing jokes so they got to piss it away on something.
is the bottom one actually south park now? i havent watched since the movie with saddam.
>>215568745That only applies to Stan. Kyle would get up in arms about whatever topic they're covering that week
>>215568838Yup.
Not that anyone cares, but Raisins shut down
>>215568356>>215568623It's not the same dude. It just doesn't feel the same. No normal kid is involved in betting or doing podcasts or anything like that. Whereas cussing out adults and stuff, while extreme, feels a bit more grounded
>>215565515Trey and Matt suffer from the "If I'm successful at one thing, I must be smart enough to know everything"Their chutzpah goes straight to their head
>>215569680You're missing the part where it's stated Butters cussed her out.
>>215568585Make that twenty. I'd say Chef's death was the turning point.
>>215569697Sigh, I don't know how to put it into words but.. rewatch that season 4 clip>>215568559And rewatch the clips you posted. You really don't sense any difference in vibes?
>>215569729No. Just asshole kids being asshole kids. That was your original complaint, and you're goalpost shifting
>>215569763Idk if this is goalposts shifting but watch this gif.https://x.com/i/status/1983318847076860117Notice Kyle's reaction? "That sucks dude" The humor in this scene stems from Kyle's casual reaction to someone being murdered in Stan's bedroom. If this episode came out... let's say ten years later, Kyle would have a realistic "freaked out" reaction. Only explicitly crazy characters like Cartman and Garrison would react non chalantly.
>>215570899Fuck, accidentally uploaded a random mp4. Ignore that
>>215567799>Lesbian flag>Randy??
>>215570899>>215570899lol the fucking insecurity, imagine having someone film this for you.
>>215565631Bro you are bugging if you think casa bonita even put a dent into their pocket change
>>215568585Dildo swagginsOne whole season shilling for Hillary.
>>215570899In Freemium Isn't Free, the entire gang acts nonchalantly to Stan coming back from hell.
>>215571385I think it's supposed to be a webm shitting on pajeets.>Thr only a woman an Indian could pull is a down syndrome looking fattyAnyways I found the on /pol/ and accidentally saved it.
>>215565269Same.
>>215565765You dumb nigger each of those guys is worth 100x that. How fucking dumb are you to think a restaurant is going to hurt their pockets?
>>215565561Sneed Feed Hill
>>215568585Trump was 10 years ago and it's been bad ever since.
>>215572377I know, I find it hilarious someone else is recording it, probably the jeets jeet friend.
>>215565269it looks so soulless and retarded now
>>215566162>Thinks they've changed that muchThey were preachy faggots from day 1
>>215574113They could at least be funny with it
