Okay, this is just my opinion. But the newer episodes starting from season 20 (maybe around when tergridy started), are boring. I even fell asleep a few times watching the newer seasons. Please do not hate on me, I just wanna spill it out what im thinking 😭

For me it went downhill fast when they started to do "political hot topic of the week/month/year" instead of random humour with occasional current day events. Mr Garrison as Trump and similar stuff was just stupid and unfunny. Also I hate Tegridy farms...

Best South Park episodes were stuff like Scott Tenorman or Casa Bonita or the superhero or ninja episodes...

“Political hot topic of the week/month/year” has been the case since the 2000s

It's literally the entire point of the show. The production time for an episode is just a week long, and they strive to satirize current trending events and sociopolitical discourse.

Exactly. Socially conscious. That’s why season 19/20 was their most ambitious in that regard.

BTW Incase some haven’t realised, they clearly have insider information on events to come 🔮 Don’t believe the “we were just reacting to x events” at all times. Many instances where they were clearly in the know

Season 19 & 20 were the smartest seasons of South Park. Season 7 is the funniest by far
