I loved it! Not nearly as funny as the last episode, but it was fun. And it had me guessing who the witches were until the end.

I'm not a fan of season 20, but there were a few things I liked like Heidi and Cartman. Incidentally, do all the boys have a love interest at this point?

I think Trey and Matt didn’t like season 20 because Trump winning hosed up their plans. I’m enjoying this season more so far. Last night’s episode was good.

Cartman's suffering is deserved and yet relatable. People who have no respect for other people's time are the worst, I was raised by one. (I dunno about it being a woman thing, since I've known plenty of women who get their poo poo together ASAP and are usually the ones bugging me to get ready) The metaphor was pretty confused. Also I bet we're going to get people having real Witch Weeks now.

Unlike last week which was closer to classic SP, this episode just kinda sucked. I still don't know what they were really trying to say with the witch stuff. You could probably project a lot of current events onto it, so it just ended up vague. They also bring in Garrison/Trump and handle him with kid gloves (he ends up saving the day like a badass) and the Heidi poo poo with "girls be takin' forever to get ready, am I right guys???" is eye-rollingly dated, like they had a 90s stand-up comedian write that part.

I thought for sure Garrison was going to fly in and side with the bros. Like give a speech and say "There are some fine folks in that coven" and then leave, and the boys have to kill the homicidal witch.

I just want episodes to be centered on Kyle, Stan, Cartman, and Kenny/Butters again. Too many of these new eps are either the parents, side characters, or Cartman only. They're missing the straight-man in comedy who points out the absurdity of the wacky characters, so all we have left are the selfish weirdos taking up all the airtime.

OK, so who were the witches? I thought it was obvious at the end, but poking around the internet, everyone has their own take. my 2 cents: At first, I thought that it was about the Vegas shooting: "good" gun owners vs mass murderers. Then I thought it was about Harvey Weinstein, and "not ALL men". And then at the end, I thought it was a parody of Republicans: "you guys pretended to be evil monsters for so long, and now Trump has come along and actually *IS* those horrible things you pretended to be, so you created him."

Also the "joke" about not saying witch hunt, but pursuit wasn't even really a joke, but apparently they thought it was funny enough to repeat like 10-15 times.

I thought the Cartman/Heidi subplot was really funny and was pretty baffled to find that a majority of people talking about the episode online seem to assume for better or worse that Matt and Trey intend us to sympathize with Cartman and be annoyed with Heidi. :| In any case this is my second-fave episode of the season so far, after Put It Down. It just got better and better over the course of its runtime.

Not every episode has to be satirizing a specific recent event. I assumed it was talking about modern witch-hunts in general, and how when one member of a group does something wrong, the rest will focus on trying to protect their own image rather than helping to deal with the bad apple. The “women take a long time to get dressed” thing is a really old joke, but I liked it because it pissed Cartman off and that’s always funny. It probably didn’t need to be a running gag though.

It was funny because Cartman drastically overreacted to a fairly common relationship conflict rather than handling it like a responsible person (as Kyle pointed out), because he is not a good person

"We have to get to them before something stupider happens." is a great line for many things in the run of this show, both the enjoyable stuff and the lame stuff the last couple years. Has anybody else picked up on how they're starting to use Stephen when they need a paranoid character? The drone episode, now the witch delusion.Dr. Gitmo Moneyson posted:Mr. Garrison is still Trump. Mr. Garrison magically growing a lush head of blonde hair after 20 years as a bald man/woman is kinda weak, too, but I liked Butters taking a swipe at his lack of accomplishments. sticklefifer posted:This was a fun episode that kind of felt like the old days, but honestly the running gag of "girls take a long time to get ready am I rite guys" is such a lazy joke, and would be comedy poison if not for seeing how much it makes Cartman miserable. Cartman and Heidi at this point is just downright not fun. Him being pissed about missing the festival could've been fun but, instead of finding another way to pay that off, he goes "I should just kill her". It's becoming a constant theme that we're having fun episodes but then (rolls eyes) The Adventures of Cartman and Heidi happens. It's almost like there's a writer who's miserable in a relationship right now and is using Cartman as a vessel to deal with it and they're just running it into the ground because they're figuring people are watching and going "Yep, I feel your pain.". JazzFlight posted:I just want episodes to be centered on Kyle, Stan, Cartman, and Kenny/Butters again. They're almost using Randy Marsh Adventures as crutches at this point and, as people talked in this thread not too long ago, they're hit or miss. This one was a hit.

Eric is not having fun. Eric is an rear end in a top hat. Therefore, karmically this is good even if he's getting off light.

The Heidi situation is so perfect for Cartman, because he's incapable of ever viewing himself as the bad guy or to blame for anything so he can't break up with her, and yet if she breaks up with him then he won't let her because Cartman always has to believe he's a super awesome guy that no one would break up with. That's why the only way Cartman can come up with to get rid of her is to set up an elaborate plan to get her killed, without doing it himself.

Guavatin posted:Only thing I'm curious about now, is how they'll kill heidi off in the finale. My current prediction is that Heidi will survive the finale, and so will Cartman and Heidi's relationship, but the status quo might change from "Cartman acts like he's trapped in the relationship against his will, and Heidi treats their relationship as a normal one even though Cartman's being an rear end in a top hat" to "Cartman is horrendously abusive but externally treats their relationship as a normal one, and Heidi actually is trapped in the relationship against her will". The whole subplot has been Cartman acting like he's being abused on the basis of pretty much nothing, and Cartman is exactly the type of person to be an abuser. He's just a really bad guy. My reaction to the relationship, ever since it was introduced, was "HEIDI, RUN", and I've been continually dumbfounded by people taking the "Heidi is bad for Cartman" beats at face value when they're obviously supposed to be a result of Cartman's warped perspective. It's one of the most brilliant pieces of satire the show's ever done, frankly, and I'm a big fan of the show's entire run since season one. People are so used to men in comedy griping about their significant others that they're willing to buy it even when it's loving Eric Cartman, of "Scott Tenorman Must Die" fame, and the show goes out of its way to show that his complaints are lies and/or delusions.

Heidi is only with him because Cartman is manipulating her and we're not supposed to sympathize with him at all. He's miserable because of his own inability to admit that he's too selfish to be in a relationship and he's not going to let her dump him because he can't see himself as anything less than the most desirable man on earth. The situation is tragic for Heidi though since she seems to be a genuinely good person.
