A zoologist would have been good since he loves animals.
Possible, but the dark red hair implies that they're biologically his, and that their mother most likely has black hair.
The epilogue takes place, what was it, 40 years in the future. Stan is 10 years old throughout the series (well, starts at 8, becomes 10). People's interests change a LOT throughout their school, college, and adult lives. When I was 10, I wanted to be an astronaut, then in my teenage years, I wanted to be a marine biologist, then a graphic artists, then a film maker, then a video game designer, then a teacher, then an author. People change as they grow up, as do their interests and goals. It's completely believable that Stan took an interest in space at some point during middle or high school, or even college.

Yup.
Yeah, even Rabbi Cartman was having his kids call Kyle "Uncle Kyle". Heck, I called close family friends of my parents "uncle" and "aunt" when I was a kid.
You can probably find it online somewhere, just be careful, you can run into a lot of viruses and scams and stuff that way. You may find a legit site to watch it on, but in that case, be prepared for a lot of ads to pop up and play while you're watching it. Or just give it a few weeks, I'm sure it'll play on Comedy Central.

Hmm, tough choice. I can't decide if it's a Masterpiece or a Masterpiece. Or maybe it's actually a Masterpiece. It's definitely not a Meh, but it could be a Masterpiece. Ah, forget it, I'm just going to go with Masterpiece.

The past is changed so the boys don't lose their friendship, and the Tegridy Weed helps amends people's attitudes. As a result of this, the "bad" future is changed. The future is a much better and happier place, Stans' family is alive and together, Stan is an astronaut and seems to be in a relationship with Wendy, Kyle is married to someone with 2 kids of is own, Kenny is alive, Butters is no longer psychotic, Wokeness no longer reigns so Jimmy can due his standard comedy, and Cartman is homeless.
I'm pretty sure Mechanic Cartman came before Rabbi/Homeless Cartman.
No, he couldn't have. They went back in time to prevent their friendship from dissolving. Since their friendship never dissolved, the future changed, so there was no reason for them to go back. Yes, it's a bit of a paradox (ie, if their friendship never faded, there never would have been a reason to go back in time, so how could they have gone back in time to prevent it from dissolving?), but some time travel scenarios are like that. Remember the Trapper Keeper episode? "Bill Cosby" went back in time to stop Trapper Keeper, but if he stopped Trapper Keeper, he never would have existed, so how could he go back in time to stop it? There's a time travel theory that centers around time travel of this mature, but I forget what it's called.
The reason why Cartman didn't turn his life around is due to the toxic nature of his relationship with his friends. He makes it very clear that he doesn't like them (especially Kyle), but he enjoys hanging out with them. When their friendship was broken, he was no longer around those he hated, so he stopped projected that hatred. He was likely lonely and began finding ways to fill in the loneliness, and started turning his life around, meeting new people, and becoming a less angry and hateful person since his old friends were no longer around, so he wasn't constantly surrounded by the source of his hate. But since their friendship never broke, he remained the bitter and resentful person he was as a child into adulthood until he lost everything. Losing his friends in the past probably forced him to turn his life around in order to connect with others, but since he never lost them, there was no reason for him to ever change.

That was my thoughts too. Completely plausible. It could have also been pre-rabbi too before he turned his life around. Don't forget, Mechanic Cartman took place before time was changed.

What if it was Cartman's wife? That would have been both funny and seriously messed up.
They feel bad for the person he COULD have become. We saw how he turned his life around and became a good person. Yes, he tried to stop his friends from changing time, but that was out of love for his family that he didn't want to lose (and did). But in the end, he took the chance and put his family at risk, losing them and his redeemed future in the process. THAT'S the Cartman people feel bad for, not the evil sociopath he was as a child.
I think it depends one which Cartman we're talking about. For me personally, I don't feel bad for the awful horrible person he was as a child (and remained in the altered timeline), but for the good person he became before time was changed, that one I do feel bad for. In short, I feel bad for the adult Cartman, but not for the kid one. I'm guessing people's standpoint on whether they feel bad for Cartman is which Cartman they're focusing on, the kid one or the adult one.

For the awful horrible person he was as a child (and remained in the altered timeline), no. But, for the good person he became before time was changed, yes. In short, I feel bad for the adult Cartman, but not for the kid one. Does that make sense?
That reappearing thing was ret-conned. Matt and Trey may have forgotten about it.
Presumably, until his body just gives out and he dies naturally.
I didn't say narcissist, I said stuck-up.
Doubt it. Post Cartman would likely hate the person his future self became. We don't know exactly what happened to make Cartman turn his life around, but if kid Cartman found out he ended up the way he did, he wouldn't like it. I'm willing to bet he will even betray his future self to help his friends' older selves change time. Then things will go back to classic South Park normal.
