Kyle asks why and is told it is because he told a friend Caitlyn Jenner was not a hero.Įpisode 1 continues at a local college bar where Kyle’s dad brings up the ridiculousness of PC Principal’s discipline to a group of other parents. PC Principal tells Kyle he’s being given a two-week detention. Kyle is suddenly called the principals office over the loudspeaker. Kyle then promotes dialogue and discussion about these issues to the group. He thinks Eric’s suspension was well deserved. Kyle points out that what PC Principal is saying about how they treat minorities is reasonable.
Later that day in the hallway Butters informs the group that Cartman had been given a four-day suspension after calling Heidi Turner ‘Clitty Litter’. South Park Season 19 Episode 1: Stunning and Brave Caitlyn, a hero? He also gives Mr Mackey a detention for pointing out how Token represented the black community. He calls out the audience for an absence of Hispanic and black students. PC Principal exclaims how South Park is lost in a time warp, a community still using words like ‘retarded’. Infuriated at the intolerance of minorities throughout the community, PC Principal sets forth his mission to progress South Park from its bigotry. By using headline grabbers like Trump, Jenner, ISIS and gun control sparingly throughout the season, they created the sharpest and most nuanced arc in the show’s history, going jihad on Imaginationland and conquering the realm of the floppy wieners that was the Game of Thrones parody.South Park Season 19 Episode 1 opens to meet the new ‘PC Principal’ of South Park Elementary after Mr Mackey announces to all students and parents that Principal Victoria had been fired. Judging from the nearly universal acclaim for season 19, from critics and fans of the show I’ve talked to, Matt and Trey didn’t have to go back to their roots or abandon topicality all together.

The diehards stuck around for the long haul, but as TV ratings dipped (before they appeared on the show’s website), many popped in and out when brash topicality made headlines, and hot button issues held the show up like a Jimmy Vulmer crutch. Early fans of the show bought Matt Stone and Trey Parker’s vision for its crude humor, and stayed for the message. While the town swung back and forth between PC and the radical right, South Park as a show grew up this season. When the people who think they have an important message for the masses vocalize it, we all hear different things. Matt and Trey’s message feels purposely ambiguous this time around. Swing the other way and you could see the slow demise of South Park 2015 as Donald Trump bloviating over a juicy morsel of islamophobia or mouth-breathing “don’t take our guns” people stockpiling weapons before the government raids their barns. It could be frat bros preaching equality to frickin’ crush puss’ or snobby millennials mindlessly gentrifying a neighborhood. The PC culture (and Principal that absolutely should remain on the show) ultimately became a stand-in for any number of agents hoping to make change. In the final 22 minutes of the season, a conspiracy unraveled but no concrete culprit was found. Together, this unholy trio makes for a year in review, or a finale of South Park’s 19th, and one of its finest, seasons. And advertising, well, it’s the stealthiest one of all, isn’t it? From cable to TiVo to AdBlock software, it’s constantly shifting shape and diverting our attention from the real problems at hand. ISIS (or ISIL) turned civil unrest into jihadist propaganda that continues to lead to horrifying acts of terror. Toxic waste bin of a person Donald Trump only gets stronger as the bullies in the “liberal media” throw stones, the unsupportive GOP condemns his hate speech, and voters in Wherever-the-fuck, USA, spew his vile rhetoric on the web. Who am I?ĭon’t lose any brain cells over this, it’s a trick question, and it’s a method that we’re nearly powerless against. Finally, I hook the loudest of the lowest common denominators and repeat endlessly.
Then I bask in warm glow of your undivided attention. I pounce on a current issue by saying (or doing) something outlandishly over the top. Let’s play a game called Donald Trump, ISIS, or the advertising industry:
