This episode is the extreme turning point into South Park being shit and I'm surprised I don't see more people mention it.The entire episode was basically a Simpson celebrity appearance episodes in which they just spend the entire episode jerking of Pewdiepie as the coolest dude ever, in a show that is known to shit an celebrities like nobody ever did before.
>>217395006I stopped watching the show then. Not even as background. Not even clips. This was a direct assault on viewers.
the show got shit long before the "you're getting old" episode, as it required that episode to address it becoming shit.
>>217395006Besides the last episode, season 18 was actually pretty good. In my opinion, the introduction of PC principal was the true death of the show, but it almost coincides with the Pewdiepie episode. Seasons 15-17 were pretty trash though.
>>217395065South Park is my favorite bipolar trainwreck. One season Trey Parker is saying "nothing is getting worse, it's all in your head, you're just a cynical asshole blinded by nostalgia, Jack and Jill is a good movie", and the next season they're saying "look at how far society has fallen, people are watching Honey Boo Boo and letting Randy Newman score movies". And then they win an Emmy.
>>217395223His advertising backers and political party probably told him to shill jack and jill. They never once joked about biden, never forget that.
Trey Parker is going to be in the studio recording gay jokes about Republican politicians in his Cartman voice when he's 60 years old.
This episode was made because Trey Parker’s ex wife’s black son didn’t know what South Park was and didn’t care about it. But he was a huge pewdiepie fan, so the episode was made so the kid could meet pewdiepie and think his step dad was cool lol
>>217395006I wonder if Matt and Trey regret this episode after the Birdge Incident.
