South Park airing every season since its inception before the next season hits probably won’t appeal to anyone but the most hard core fans of the show. For those who think that it’s the worst thing to ever hit TV, you can take heart and remember that there are other channels available for you to watch. The animation is still as iffy as ever and they’ve kept it that way because that’s what people expect. Somehow the world of South Park has appealed to a generation that was looking for something simple and has carried over to new generations that see it as art and something worth watching.
Many people have disagreed over South Park and its premise for around two decades now. The creators, Trey Parker and Matt Stone, have never once been apologetic for their creation and you’ve got to give them some credit for that. They’ve gone full steam ahead and have never stopped doing what they love to do. Sometimes it’s a bit ridiculous and makes a rational person go ‘huh?’ but there are other times when the show is genuinely funny.
Beginning on September 6, Comedy Central will air all the episodes from the past 20 seasons of South Park nonstop. Season 21 of the cartoon airs on Wednesday, September 21 at 10 p.m. Aside from the mega marathon, the network also announced that South Park Twitter emojis will launch on September 13. Fans can use them during the entire airing of Season 21 and tweet #SouthPark, #NewSouthPark, #SouthParkPremiere, #SouthPark21, and #Cartman. Furthermore, a new video game, South Park: The Fractured But Whole, is slated to be released on October 17. There is also a mobile game, South Park: Phone Destroyer, in the works, which Ubisoft announced during E3 2017.
South Park Season 21 was originally scheduled to premiere on August 23 but was pushed back for an unspecified reason. Show creators Matt Stone and Trey Parker said they are going back to basics in the upcoming season, which means that they are steering away from serialization. Instead, the episodes would be one-offs, going back to the show’s original formula where Stan, Kyle, Kenny, and Cartman react to what’s happening to the world around them.
