I agree for the most part, but enjoyed last night's episode. I'm fine with social commentary, but yes, I'd like some more well thought out original stories that don't revolve around social commentary.

I also agree that they could have dumbed the episode down a tad and had a little too much going on, but it didn't take away too much IMO.

I blame society. I just want to see Randy do more cock magic.

You mean this contemporary pop culture issue that Matt and Trey have managed to make some funny jokes about? That's South Park. Has been for 20 years now.

Take the pledge. Put it down.

Didn't they specifically say they were going to shift away from it this season?

The episode wasn't centered around politics. Or Trump. They just took shots at him about the tweeting. They also did a lot of other stuff.

I didn't really care for last weeks episode, but this one was money. I laughed a good bit. The Cartman raps were excellent. Also the voicemail of him threatening suicide when Heidi broke up with him was great. Just a good episode from start to finish.

Did you not hear them sing "No one cares" after she said she would sign it? They were laughing at her because she will never become president. Again, not centered on politics. Just making a one off joke.

South Park is a cartoon that made me laugh for 20 min. The episode last night was funny. Not sure why the Breesus alter feels the need to go all siskel and ebert on it...
