South Park: The Streaming Wars Part 2

What's the point of repeating the celebrities backing up for pipi+? Being sarcastic? Once would have been enough. There's no fun in it at all and it's way too disgusting.

Tegrity Weed should've been a one- or two- episode thing, but it lasted for years and the idea of this weed thing never make any sense. Many characters had been out-of-character for a long long time, the most terrible ones were Randy and Garrison. Hope to see the whole show get to "normal" soon. I love South Park, I don't want it cancelled, or live on like the recent seasons.

Like the title says. Lately, they've been putting out a bit of garbage material. I will always watch South Park because I'm a loyal die hard fan of the show, but I have to retort that the creators could go back to their roots when every episode took us by surprise, entertained us fully and always kept us guessing the next scene.

Now, I swear, I could tell what was going to happen every time before I even saw it. The show needs to either hire new avant guarde writers that get it, or the creators need to strap on their big boy belts and guide the show in a new direction. I can appreciate the efforts to make new material, and at that, that it can be a very difficult task after so many seasons, but something has to be done, or the show will decline in viewership.

Don't take it from me and judge for yourselves. Watch the darn thing and tell me you weren't left with a hole in your stomach.

This is the kind of television you can enjoy if you afford it a lot of goodwill. It made me laugh twice, which is more than most shows these days, but it's not like the heights of the show back in the day.

What I will say though is that it's becoming very clear that Trey and Matt feel pretty nostalgic about the earlier seasons, and for what it's worth, I think that's a good thing. They clearly have respect for what made South Park good in the first place and they want to honor that.

I think the problem comes with the fact that these meta-narratives are getting a little rediculous. This feels like something a talented fan fiction writer would make and feel proud of themselves about, but not an actual South Park episode.

I think it's getting clear that these characters might be getting a little thin for now. Honestly, focusing on the adult versions of these characters and their families seems like it's becoming more and more of an essential development.

This is labeled as a movie, but it really is more of another special. I like the episodes better. This movie/special features a drought coming everywhere with Pi-Pi taking advantage of the situation by using pee for his water park, or I guess pee park is more accurate. We learn that Manbearpig has a family and Pi-Pi is using them to control them. I really did like the use of celebrities here. I thought that Randy would be returning to his form.

I was annoyed at how he was just going back to what he was doing earlier. At least we get a nice resolution and good pacing from the previous installment. It could have used more jokes. It was good how the celebrities were more disgusting by what was going on than the audience. That's how comedy should work. They mentioned events that happened three years ago, yet how are the characters the same age? ***

Part 2 of "The Streaming Wars" is a return to the earlier days of South Park and the kids. I prefer this over part one and can tell they listened to their viewers opinions after part 1. They do have some kinks to work out, but this was a great hour-long special. Just pour yourself a stiff drink and enjoy the satire. God knows we all need that.
