  • Honestly the first 15 seasons or so.

    There are more non-political episodes than there are political ones. Especially in those seasons

    If I had to pick a peak season though I would pick either season 12 or season 13.

    They’re both hilarious from first episode to last but I would recommend 13 over 12 because that’s the first introduction to Coon and friends(which is about is as apolitical as you’re going to get), the WTF wrestling episode, the queef sisters, Dead Celebrities, Fat-Beard (Somali pirates) and Butters bottom bitch.

    It’s one of my favorite seasons and I think everything up through season 15 is more silly than political but after you get into the more recent seasons you start to see more involvement because of the political nature of the world.

    One of the great things about South Park and the six Days to air method of how they produce and come up with these episodes makes them first in line to get on top of current events, and with everything they’ve got to choose from in the past few years their cups runneth over.

    So they’ve got to fine-tune what they think will be more receptive to the audience and I think that’s really difficult to do right now because of the way the world is and that’s why you see specials like the Panderverse, The COVID-19 specials etc. I mean they’re touching on all the big issues that are going on in the country and the world to a lesser extent. So it’s kind of hard for them not to be more political as the show ages. People are becoming more divided by politics and are more involved in politics than ever, whether it’s in good faith or ignorance, they’re there.

    So they’re giving the audience what they want, if you will.






  • It’s like the flavor of Dr pepper.

    It’s neither root beer, nor cola. Nobody knows what it is, those who say they do, don’t. Because it’s both, and more.

    This isn’t a black and white issue, it’s difficult to approach this in a way that doesn’t immediately throw you into one side or the other. Pandering is literally indulging someone, often to get what you want. They were able to execute that in excellent fashion. If you took anything away from the episode as being one-sided, you need to rewatch the episode.
