So, somehow, in 2023, we are in the midst of an honest to god South Park renaissance. I covered 5 out of 6 episodes of Season 26, and to close everything out, I wanted to put everything in one place and add some final thoughts on the latest season of the show. This video is basically a compilation of all of my individual breakdowns, PLUS new thoughts on things I missed or got wrong in between each episode breakdown, and finally there will be a big final thoughts section on the season as a whole.

Sharon chastising Stan "What have I told you about playing Warhammer on the kitchen table?" also means that Stan, in his geeky way, had been low-key rebelling against his mother all spring break. If only Randy could have appreciated it.

I love how it blew up in Cartman's face. Kenny and Butters made bank, while Cartman walked away with nothing. Also parallels the post-Covid special, since we know that Kenny, Butters, and Jimmy end up becoming the richest out of all the South Park Elementary alum when they grow up. Butters's work ethic especially parallels it since we know he ends up becoming a businessman.

Notice how the Prince only does drum fills when he practices as opposed to actually playing a grove. It’s such a deep implication that he never played with anyone.

One thing I think Dickinbaus commented on that you didnt go over was how the laziness of managers is also to blame. You can’t start a business, eat expensive mustard, and live a rich-lux life and expect your workers to be motivated to work for you. Butter’s basically became the owner at that breaking point, and his passion rather than desire for money saved the restaurant.

It's really nice to see Kenny and Cartman have their own episode after they'd been distant in past seasons. The boys used to be structured like Stan and Kyle are friends, Kenny and Cartman are friends, and because Stan and Kyle get along with Kenny they sort of just *end up* hanging out with Cartman. So, reinforcing Kenny and Cartman's friendship was both sorely needed and refreshing.

It was funny had got a good few laugh's but ultimately didn't drag on/completely over stay it's welcome. I hope that they do more mini arc's like that for other characters and continue experimenting with the status quo

My one issue with Dickinbaus is that one of Cartmans like, 2 positive character traits is hes really, really good at being a manager. He was very effective running a Parental Revenge Center, he ran a effective burger store with Kyle that one time. He's pretty good at organizing the kids to do stupid shit, Cartmans really good at getting stuff done as long as he actually wants to do it. Dickinbaus is like the one time he was absolutely useless at running a business. Normally hed have made a million and lost it all over some weird plot point about Kosher hotdogs and not being willing to hire a rabbi or something weird.

There was also the failing amusement park he bought in an earlier season where he turned it around into a hugely profitable one before getting himself screwed over by selling it and never doing any proper paperworks as its owner which gets the IRS on his ass and ultimately leaves him in debt at the end of the episode.

And of course wood is a renewable resource. The people that own woods don’t want a one time payout, they’re interested in continued income. And for that they need constant wood. So they plant new trees for the ones they cut down, to ensure a continuation of timber. And we all know trees create oxygen, so in a way, using more paper is encouraging the planting of more green trees!

Honestly, thinking back to the longer seasons we used to get, I'm glad these ones are short now. Yes, long seasons had some peak South Park in them, but there were plenty of season where the episode quality varied heavily. I feel like the fact that they don't have to make as much content allows them to focus on just the best ideas. Some of the best UK TV shows were only around 6 episodes a season, I think it's really a case of quality over quantity. The specials are cool too, I like having the format variety and it makes the show very unique compared to other shows. With all the legal trouble, it's hard to say if they'll keep doing them in the future. I hope at least that the specials format lives on in some capacity, if it can't be exclusive to Paramount or whatever happens.

it's interesting that the main opinion i see is "we need to stop ai it's gonna take our jobs" and not "we need to restructure society and let ai take our jobs" ai and robot workers SHOULD be taking over for us. what we need now, I think, is high taxes on businesses and some form of safety net for us average citizens, we're getting to the apex of society where soon capitalism won't work anymore because we just won't have enough jobs left for humans. so instead of trying to find ways to keep ourselves in the rat race of empty work and dead end jobs, we should prepare to replace ourselves.

I just want to say Where the fuck have you been. I love all your videos and your breakdown on each video. Is super bang on. I've grown up with this show and always loved it. Even tho I didn't know wtf was happening till I got older and started to understand the genius minds of Matt and trey. I'm one of those guys that falls asleep to this show playing every single night. A issue I know. Mate my dreams are funny as fuck

i think your take on AI still really resonates today. it’s a great point- AI has been used for ASSISTANCE for years (predictive text, etc) but the second it replaces creative things, like art or writing, it’s almost like the soul has been sucked out of it. great video.

In regards to ChatGPT, I sincerely thought Stan would have to fight against the AI program and learn a lesson about being more cognitive in his relationship à la the Facebook episode where he fights the embodiment of FB. But because they've done that in the past, would it feel like they'd be rehashing it?

32:37 “Art requires human experience, & I’ll never waiver on that opinion.” The WGA & SAG-AFTRA agree with you. Hopefully something similar can be done for animation & voice actors

In regards to the conspiracy theory; Matt Stone has made it _abundantly_ clear that he knows who it is that's keeping his bread buttered, and to appreciate his circumstantial success... 6 Days to Air used the analogy of van Halen; their creative engine being primarily Eddie with the writing songs and lyrics, but without DLR, it just isn't VanHalen. (Matt is David Lee Roth, Trey is Eddie.) But I don't see ANY scenario where Matt rocks that boat.

The corridor crew video does open up a pandoras box of possibilities, if you saw their breakdown video for it it was not as simple as giving the ai video and telling it what to do, several iterations with their own work added to places the AI cant even begin to create continuity yet. So we still have time i hope

How come the boys never act like as a group anymore? In older seasons an episode like DickinBalls would have all 4 boys act together, it would have Stan and Kyle feature in some way. They didn't even speak after the first sence, feels like the broship broke down

Well Stan and Cartman moved away, now cartman is poor like Kenny and just as manipulative to butters. Now Stan hangs out with Token since they're neighbors and now Kyle is friends with both of them. Now that Cartman moved back and Kenny got more focus this season maybe there will be more of them as a group in the upcoming specials
