      Blah! You don't think it's devolved? The better seasons had the kids being kids in absurdist situations now you're more likely to have Stan or Kyle rattle off more complicated political or ideological messaging.

    • @Scrinwaipwr
      @Scrinwaipwr 4 ปีที่แล้ว +45

      My favourite episodes have always been the ones that send up childhood itself and have the kids in relatable yet exaggerated childhood things, the one where the girls have that future-telling device made of paper being a great example. But I can't deny that when South Park wants to do satire they do it very well.

    My favorite south park episodes have always been those that have as little to do with current news of that time as possible.

    Having 2 down rounds out of 21, and then recovering for the 22nd isn't dying. That is greatest of all time territory.

      Simpsons isn't dead, it's the fact that their style has been copied by EVERY other show since the late 90s, so The Simpsons seems stale because we see their style all over the place.
      Everyone says they died after season 10, but that's the same time Family Guy, Futurama, and shows like South Park came around. Think about it. If you were the first one to do something, then everyone copied you... Your style wouldn't be unique anymore, and that's exactly what happened to The Simpsons.

      I don't think they swung too far to either side. They made some way more subtle mistakes that have more to do with the complexity of the process of serialized writing and they lost their thread. The end of Season 20 is, in my opinion, so bad that leftists may claim it's bad because it's too far right and vice versa. But, in reality, they did not have a problem with any of the political sides, but with South Park itself.

      It is a contradictory conclusion to the title. He acknowledges the show realizing Season 20 was handled poorly by the end and the effects it had on Season 21, but that's really all it is.
      It didn't die, it just took a big hit and took a while to recover. However, Mr. Garrison/Trump still exists and the show doesn't really know what to do with him aside from just omitting him from the Season. He can return later on if Trump doesn't get reelected, but honestly it's not an easy prediction. If there were people who were all for Trump before, they'd probably be at it again. :)

And the reason these complaints are valid is because the real day South Park died was March 9th, 2005.

      The problem is your video didn't give the impression that South Park had lost its steam. You just made an uninspired video that feels too familiar to videos ever since two years ago. The only thing new this video has is you saying Season 21 and 22 helped the show to recover. You didn't even say that it had lost its steam in the video, you just said "it has recovered" and ended it with "Oh Jeez is the Day South Park Died". I'm sorry but this is easily the weakest of your The Day X Died series because it feels like a retread of familiar videos with very little originality aside from a part that goes against the title of this video.

    South park was consistently awesome for 14 seasons, then it just got slightly more underwhelming with each season from there

    With 2 seasons being "bad" out of around 20, that's a roughly 90% success rate. I'd say a 90% is more than just a failure

    Considering the Simpsons has been on since the 80's and is long past mediocre id say i have to disagree. South Park did have a noticeable dip in quality but they brought it right back into focus with the last few seasons.

    The town of South Park is not fictitious. It is west of Denver North of a little town called Fairplay. In South Park there is a painting of Mr.Hankey on a building. I dont think there is more than 500 people that live there.
