Season 20 was garbage even before Trump won halfway through, and honestly I'm not at all excited for this because I don't think South Park as it has existed really has a place in a post-Trump world. I'd like to be proven wrong though.

I have been thoroughly unimpressed by this episode (though the kitchen wall bit and Cartman immediately going back to "uuuuuuuuuugggh" when he was trying to act abused to Heidi made me chuckle), but that last bit was interesting and they're either gonna stick the landing or gently caress it up by I dunno having the confederate flag guy be super tolerant or whatever.

geeves posted:Nah, it's like they just highlighted that white people don't care about or flat out ignore the bigger issues as long as they can watch HGTV. It's not biting or in your face, but definitely a bit subtle. Let's look at the previous season openers 20. "Memberberries" Whatever the many many flaws of Season 20, it started with a lot of promise, and the titular memberberries were resonate enough to be culturally relevant. 19. "Stunning and Brave" I will defend this episode because yo, gently caress Caitlyn Jenner, Cartman idolizing Tom Brady is hilarious, and the punchline of "you have your cake, eat it too" is loving transcendent. 18. "Go Fund Yourself" The Washington Redskins episode. It fuckin owns. 17. "Let Go Let Gov" Meh, but the punchline of the NSA have kidnapped Santa Claus and hooked him up to a computer and the average American just doesn't give a poo poo is pretty incisive. This? This isn't good satire or comedy. This is limp and unfocused.
