When is the exact point you think it fell off?

Not him, but tegridy was fine the first episode, but when it was clear it was going to stay, it revealed that the "Serialization" shit wasn't actually over and they will keep reusing jokes and scenarios even if they got old the first time they use them

>they will keep reusing jokes and scenarios
that's exactly what the whole tegridy shit was introduced to avoid

When they toned down cartman and made it the randy show

Season 19 Ep. 1, the introduction of PC Principal.

episode 1
>laziest halfassed artstyle i ever seen
>immorally degenerate and immature stories/characters
>is preachy as fuck at the end of episodes
just nothing about it is good

There’s no consensus about that. Some say the Scott Tenorman episode, others when Kenny died, when Kenny stopped dying, when they killed Chef, when Garrison became Trump, etc.

>There’s no consensus about that
that's the reason for this thread, i want to know people's opinions
IMO all of the seasons have their own pros and cons, even if the only pro to some of them is personal nostalgia, but the show clearly has changed drastically, yet slowly, over time

When they killed Pip.

Imagine being the only kid in South Park that dies and stays dead. It's like dying in the final minutes of a world war from friendly fire.

It never did. It's like been funny and consistent all the way through. Seasons 9-12 went a bit too needlessly edgy and gorey but even a lot of those are well written or interesting. Charming show that only Trey Parker and Matt Stone can make the way it is.

I wanna say Season 16 or which one was it, the one where they did that lame padded out Game of Thrones parody. But I think it might've actually been some time before that, it's just that during that exact season I got old enough to realize I don't enjoy it as much as I used to.

You know when the crowd in the theater cheers at the death of the villain?

That's the emotion Pip's death was meant to evoke.

It didn't work

i stopped watching sometime during season 19. pc principal was imo the cheapest, most annoying character they ever introduced. i also wasn't too fond of the direction they were taking with one plot dragging out for a whole season. i might pick it up again sometime but idk

after the Coon arc, for several reasons
>nothing could ever top it in terms of writing
>they started thinking they could do more serialized arcs

we have this thread every week

>the one where they did that lame padded out Game of Thrones parody
see, in theory i would agree it was stupid as fuck, but seeing it as a teenager i still loved it, and im sure i'd still love it if i rewatched those episodes today
thats the problem i have with this question i made the thread over, even the stupidest shit can still work and has its merit

This, instead we should post about what we want the next vidya to be about (I'd personally love a Sci-Fi South Park Game ripping on Star Wars and Star Trek's turning into shit) or what characters we want to get more focus instead of Randy.
Also, we should post cute fanart

season 9 started the hard creep into current events

they were talking about current events as early as starvin marvin if not earlier

I stopped giving a shit with the "Randy is Lorde" plot because for one thing it reminded me I'm so old and out of the loop I had to look up who Lorde was, and second, I just couldn't bring myself to care about any of it. I liked it better when episodes were self-contained and it didn't matter what order you watched them in. I find that an admirable trait in TV shows, otherwise it gets too soapy and I can't be assed to keep track of it anymore.

When the show became about Randy

I looked it up it was season 18. Yeah, season 18 was the last good season, and Cock Magic was the last watchable episode (not good, just watchable). It's been beyond trash ever since.
