Hey everyone, before I get into this I just wanted to say happy mother's day.

Okay, now to the theory I found an interesting theory on YouTube that Kyle is the key to the broship getting back on track. I found it on "Johnnie Something"'s YouTube channel particularly this video:

South Park's Vaccination Special Review (NO SPOILERS)YouTube

So here's what the comment said:

"Kyle is the key to getting the broship back on track. Something I noticed on my rewatch of this special is of the three boys... Kyle DOES subtly resist. There are facial expressions that show he DOESN'T like what is going on. Hell, he literally says I won't let the broship die this easily. What I think will happen is Kyle will be a meta stand in for what some people think south park has become. Too preachy. As the series has gone on, Kyle has become more and more uptight and in this episode it really shows. I think this episode is mirroring you're getting older on purpose and that Kyle is just a bummer to be around and Stan will maybe say that. Kyle needs to loosen up and learn to have fun again. That's how the dynamic between the four gets restored. I'm likely wrong though."

I think this theory is interesting because I noticed the things about Kyle in the Vaccination Special too. Like this person mentioned, Kyle seemed to be the only one who appeared to be hesitant about ending the broship so quickly, whereas Stan and Cartman were expeditious in ending their friendship with undefended certainty. And once again, Kyle was the one who put effort in not letting their broship fall apart (but of course we know how that turned out in the end). I also think their perspective on Kyle loosing up and having fun is interesting. Like I've mentioned before, I am personally fond of characters who behave like their age, and Kyle seems to be practically an adult who is physically a fourth grader. Perhaps maybe he aged mentally but not physically, but that's another theory. Gerald already called Kyle out for his inability to make light out of situations like an actual child would in "Oh, Jeez" so maybe Stan or Cartman could talk about this with him in future episodes, but I am unsure if the writers want to take that kind of approach with their characters.

Well, those are my thoughts on this theory, what do you think?
