I miss when they gave the reporters goofy names like this

Somebody Pooner. Steve Pooner, Dave Pooner, somebody. I can't recall the first name. Richard Pooner, possibly.

I miss the original goofiness of the show, period!

I think lately it’s become focused too much on whatever the subject matter is, and leaves out the stuff that made it so fun originally. I hope it’s not more so because Matt and Trey are trying to make the show “more legit”/serious, but it’s definitely noticeable when you go back and watch the first few seasons.

Well, I think once it became topical, as they call it, at first, it became interesting. Like, something happens, can't wait to see how South Park handles THIS. But, lots of people miss the show being centered on South Park and it's citizens, self-contained. I am among those fans.

I can’t believe I only noticed it after I started my current rewatch (I’ve watched the original 6 or 7 at least 5-6 times now), but has anyone else noticed this: (I mean the “hair gel” in his hand). I admit that some of the time I’ve watched the show and tuned out, but the first couple times it’s on screen, it’s VERY brief.
