I would say by Season 6

-Pip and Mr. Hat are retired as characters

-Ms. Choksondik is gone forever

-Ms. Crabtree barely appears by now

-Chef’s prominence as a character starts slowing down

-Terrence & Philip are barely seen from here on

It depends on how you define “classic”. If you mean “the original style of the show”, then definitely I’d say Season 6. If you define “classic” as “the best era”, I’d say South Park STARTED really getting good with Season 6. Some people say the golden age ends at Season 10 or so, but I’d say everything up to 17 stays broadly high quality and still feels the same, so I include it in my “golden age”, which ends when the show delves into serialization.
