A somewhat boring article about the rules they have that govern how they write individual episodes. Worth reading if you are or have been a fan.

Rule #1: Don't write about Biden or Harris despite theamount of material you know is there.

I lost interest after they shat the bed trying to predict the 2016 election cycle using serialized storytelling. I've watched a handful of episodes in the interim, but nothing has made me a regular viewer since.

It's hard to be edgy and subversive when you're damn near 60. Retire. Enjoy the fruits of your labor.

The last one about Thanksgiving and Pete Hegseth was pretty funny. Saudi Arabia sponsored the race.
Not much Trump stuff.

It really is. All the political stuff this season is so contrived and lazy. It's just unbelievable how bad it is compared to their writing, even just 1 season ago. The 2016 season, while many here thinks it was not great, is worlds better than the turd they put out this season. I've enjoyed everything since 2016 and liked all the specials they put out since, but it has been a chore to watch every episode this season.

We dont see eye to eye on a lot of things, but youre right here.

i have been a LONG time SouthPark fan. I have 0 love or allegiance for trump so i dont care if they poke fun at em.

This season has been uninspired, and lazy honestly. Watching a horse being beaten every week.

I dont think its awful, but far from their best.

Which runs completely contrary to what the show has always been. Sad to see.

Show honestly sucks now and it hasn’t been good for a long time. Shameful bloated carcass of a once great show being preyed upon by its lazy creators
