'South Park' creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone explain why they purposely delayed the show's 27th season premiere until after the 2024 election: 'I don't know what more we could possibly say about Trump.'
I might come out looking like a trump supporter and I am not and I’m also not an American. But I heard the show is a political satire so do they also make fun of biden every now and then? I saw some funny clips of the show about AI and thats it.
I know I’m gonna get downvoted but I want to clarify I’m just asking this cause they can have some content with that too. It’s not like America has only 1 problem to make fun of. I read the article and it seems like it’s more about “paramount” and their statement may just be for funsies. Please correct me if I’m wrong.
I assume that you havent seen too many episodes and dont know too much about the history on south park.
But they are known for making fun of everyone, and not selecting by a agenda.
For example there is an episode about: Mormons, Scientology, a whole series of episodes on the “superheroes” around jesus, there is even an episode where a future civilization is fighting over the meaning of “AAA”, which is a atheistic alliance (to hint on the idea, that there will still be war, even if religions go extinct).
The fact that they make fun of everyone is one of the reasons they stood so long.
Btw in the 2016 season, which they released weekly during the last months of the election, their portraial of Hillary Clinton is the one of an extraordinaly stupid and incompetent woman, while their Donald Trump doesnt even want to be president.
Thanks for the insight. So I assume it’s like family guy but with better and meaningful cameos. Lately I’ve been watching too much family guy, it never feels enough, it’s so stupid but I’m addicted :(
It’s definitely got a higher ceiling than family guy, but it’s also got a lower floor (though at least there’s no fucking chicken fighting) imo. There’s a lot of dumb, gross humor
They’ve been around a long time, but a thing to consider is that in 2015 a great deal of people’s entire political discourse was what was portrayed on South Park and/or The Daily Show-Colbert Report. Both on the Comedy Central channel.
They wielded far more influence than many realized.
They make an episode in a weeks time, there are random episodes, but if they take something out of the news it’s news, not history.
They are not a political satire series, they pointed out what is wrong in society in general.
First time trump was that dumb, it was hard to believe he would really be a serious candidate. They made fun of that, they took it to the top, so, they thought, but the top of their imagination lacks behind the reality we are in now.
Biden is old news, trump is the only thing in the media, you can’t make satire of trump, there is nothing more to point out.

Who needs chicken fighting when you have cock magic
Not to mention the Chicken Lover and Medicinal Fried Chicken episodes, seems like enough chicken in there for everyone.
