I can't honestly see much changes between south park in the past and now, it still tackles society's often idiotic problems and it's fun doesn't only depend on blood and gore.
South park is one of those rare shows that seems to survive the teeth of time.

No, I think it may just be satirising a culture that you may not be aware of.

It happens.

The biker episode wasn't very funny. The only part that had me laughing was the motorcycle noise the bikers made with their mouths. The other two new episodes were good though. I think with the latest series you have to agree with the writers about a certain subject or you just won't find it funny at all.

The Simpsons strated getting stale after only 4.
But this just goes to show that nothing lasts forever.
Woah, woah! I agree with your other points, but seasons 4-7 of The Simpsons were the golden age of the show! 8&9 were good, and after season 10 it started waning.

I'm fully aware of the culture's it's satirizing thank you. It's satirized the Japanese before, two that immediately come to mind are the Chinpokomon and Ladder to heaven episode.

Thanks for your input though...

Dead Celebrities was Awesome I was disappointed by them dealing with Hiroshima(Could have been much cleverer and have a point to it)

South Park has always been hit and miss at times. With that said consistenly it proves, to me at least, that it's the funniest damn cartoon out there. I love the new episodes so far.

SP hasn't lost it, the focus is just more on current events now. The actual humour hasn't changed a great deal.

It was ok, FAR from best... But, a few years ago they lost it... I know the queef sisters one made me quit watching the show... Chimpokomon was probably the best one ever...

Agreed. And it is as superb as ever in my view.

'The China Problem' was pant wettingly hilarious.

^ This.

The new episodes seem to continue the inconsistency really. I didn't find Dead Celebrities to be overly funny (good moments though) but Butters Bottom ***** had me in stitches.

'Know what I'm sayin'?'
'Yes, I think I know what you are saying' = Genius.

They've moved away from fart humour to do parodies, and I think the new South Park is hilarious!
Agreed, I like the fact that it is now more of a parody.

I still laugh out loud at South Park, I can't say the same for Family Guy or The Simpsons any more.

I still think it's a pretty good series. Is it as innovative as it was before? Well, they did make the award-winning Imagination Land episodes. I have a feeling they can keep at it, but it isn't surprising when some people view the shine of the show as worn off. To me, so far they are still funny while trying to send a message. As long as they can keep that up, I'm still going to watch.

I think that at first South Park was meant to be a satire. Then younger kids started to watch it so they would seem older, and now the show is catering to them. It's basically trying to be as offensive as possible instead of trying to make real jokes.
