Sadly I think a lot of people will be accusing it of going woke.

 

[Nocty]

I'm honestly fucking amazed they survived this far in the current climate lmao, good for them

I was rewatching some of the much older stuff at the weekend with my nephew and no fucking way would that shit fly nowadays, lmao

 

[Hookshot]

There's no way they wouldn't take the piss out of the current nonsense that's going on, especially the looming threat against Canada

Trey and Matt don’t give a shit.

I’m always excited for a new season of South Park. The newer seasons can be hit or miss, but even the bad episodes I still enjoy.

I’d really love to see a return to classic form with the inconsequential stories that don’t hinge on current events. Like Asspen, Fishsticks, Casa Bonita, etc.

 

[EviLore]

We're definitely in need of some satire right now. Looks great.

 

[Queso de Grande]

Looks like it is going to be a great season.

I was going to say I doubt it will be accused of going woke but there are some loud voices who need to recalibrate their woke-dar and some of them probably will try to generate some controversy/views. Some of the Trump/Musk stuff has ranged from a bit dumb to idiotic (and I say that as someone who generally supports what they're trying to do). Making fun of that should be fair game.

They can't even invite Musk to a dinner without him making a scene. I mean, look at his facial expression here. He must have been tripping balls and was deep in some k-hole, right?

Season 27​

 

[Mistake]

Looks nice to me. I hope they keep the tradition of shooting down the middle. Personally I liked the series better when each episode was mostly it's own thing, but it's still solid.

Randy as Elon Musk will be amazing

 

[nkarafo]

Still prefer the low stakes South Park episodes over those high stakes/epic music/big explosions episodes.

 

[Trogdor1123]

Why is anyone accuse it of being woke from that trailer? I wouldn’t accuse them of that ever. Literally everyone and everything is fair game to them.

Did I miss something in the trailer?

 

[Complistic]

Can't wait. Need to catch up on a few from last season I think.

 

[Putonahappyface]

Great news! I was fifteen when South Park first aired back in 1997, how time flies when you're having fun. Randy Marsh always brings me to tears.

 

[Fbh]

Looks fun, will definitely check it out.
While I do think the older material is better, South Park is probably the only of these long running animated comedy shows that has actually managed to continue being pretty good (unlike The Simpsons or Family Guy)

Yeah I don't get it either.
South Park is one of the few shows that truly does make fun of all sides

 

[Pakoe]

Are they gonna do actual episodes or long runs? I miss those shorter episodes that were just simple.

 

[Shaki12345]

You gotta respect South Park for just doing whatever the F they want without making a political "choice".

Their "seasons" now only have 6 normal episodes and then they have like 2-3 longer specials on Paramount+

From what I heard they kind of did make a choice in 2016, so then they had to rewrite a bunch of material. I kind of wonder what it was actually

 

[Darkmakaimura]

Looks hilarious.

Canada war.
Airplanes colliding.
City burning.
Ketamine.

They got all the current events down and that's what I love about this show.

 

[GateofD]

Haven’t watched SP in decades

 

[Codes 208]

Awesome advert.

I still remember “blame canada” by heart
