Just give me single episodes like we had for the first ten seasons or so and don't be too preachy or try too hard to use the show as a vessel to express political or cultural beliefs. "Cartman tries to create a racket to make $10M by stealing tooth fairy money" is much more fun than "Cartman reminds us he hates the Jews Part 50".

So is Cartman falling in love with Alexa both because he likes her "company" and can dominate her with no pushback and he's going to blame all this on Heidi?

It's been a while since I've seen it, but I seem to remember them staging the fake breakup to get out of it, but then going along with it in the end for the betterment of the town when they saw how bummed people were they broke up even though neither of them were gay.

The rap was great (and even better in context having seen the Logic song) but would've been funnier if Cartman weren't pinning his intended suicide on the girlfriend he's convinced is abusing him when it's the other way around, if anything. It's Cartman's excessive shittiness showing up again which you're hoping gets paid off in it coming back to bite him.

SLICK GOKU BABY posted:Yea, I don't get it either. If you get to the point where you don't like Randy episodes, maybe you somehow lost your South park spirit? Randy Marsh Adventures have always been hit or miss for me because it comes down to whether or not his indulgence is entertaining (Medicinal Fried Chicken) or grating (More Crap). Randy's making out with the Native American to try and get his DNA in his mouth so he could be part Native was good, but the rest of it was kind of a miss. Sir Lemming posted:Y'all do know there's been plenty of recent controversy over Columbus, right? It's nothing entirely new (there are places that have been calling it "Indigenous Peoples Day" for a while now), but it's picking up steam with the whole Confederate statue thing. I'm waiting for people to protest cities named Columbus.

Unless they're going a different direction, the only time I can remember Hummels being referenced in South Park was when Satan and Chris moved in together during Do The Handicapped Go To Hell?. That would be a fun callback. Waltzing Along posted:I hope Heidi is in the game. (of course she will be) And you're going to have to sit through a cutscene in which Heidi is excited to see him and he tilts his head forward and rolls his eyes, then answers her disinterestedly because there are apparently people (or maybe just the writers) who still find it funny at this point.

WillieWestwood posted:Trey's thoughts on this at the end of S20: "We don't want [Heidi] to go away, but I really liked how in the end [Cartman] was now a dude stuck in a relationship." Nothing about Cartman being happy in it, just stuck. Somebody sees that and gets a laugh either from sympathy or entertainment, which doesn't compute because it's a comedy vacuum.

This felt like it had potential as a classic one-off episode, but Marcus is grating. e- "Put me on Death Row, but they call it Hospice" is hilarious and also depressing. CBJSprague24 fucked around with this message at 03:17 on Oct 19, 2017 |

Sir Lemming posted:I didn't like or dislike Marcus but it was sort of weird to have this new character show up for no particular reason. It probably shouldn't be weird, but I guess they haven't done it in a while. It was as bad, if not worse, than PewDiePie showing up and breaking the fourth wall in the last episode of whatever season that was, but at least that was related to the content of the previous episodes. Waltzing Along posted:Avoid everything from this season and last season. That's 20/21. Everything before it is pretty high quality with hits and misses. Except season 16. That's a bad season, too with only a couple worthwhile episodes. The first half of that season (the spring run) is total trash. The second part is back to normal, but that's only 7 episodes of which a couple are good. I generally agree with this list with the inclusion of A Nightmare on Facetime and Poor and Stupid (because I'd always wanted to see SP do a NASCAR episode and was surprised with how well they did with it). Butterballs is worth it for the payoff at the end alone Butters  ing his Grandma by telling her she's going to die fairly soon and he'll carry on as a happy-go-lucky kid.

"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.

Oh, good. I'm glad we got to the end of the episode before Heidi and Cartman were reunited. I wouldn't have wanted for that to extend over a couple episodes to see what they could've done with it. "CHA CHA CHA". There's been quite a bit of fun stuff this season, but Heidi/Cartman just kills it.

"She's kind of like Cartman, but with the ability to follow through." Why the gently caress did they have to drag this out the entire season before getting to the good part? LA Chargers dig. e- I don't get this show. That was the best episode this season because both plots were fun for once. Cartman has created a monster in Heidi and doesn't quite know to handle her. Even the NFL wanting the volcano felt like the randomness of the first few seasons where you laugh. And we're going to get what, three episodes more of it this season?

That episode was alright except for yet another misfire in the Cartman/Heidi plot (and, subsequently, Kyle's campaign). Cartman having to deal with the monster he created (and struggling to find ways to do so) was fun last week and it looked like an escalation of that might continue this week until they pulled the old "Let's pile on the Jew!" card again and you knew it was an opportunity wasted.
