Cartman will be super pissed off that they spoiled his chance to become a better person. Because of this, he will leave the broship, narrowing it down to three. Also, out of embarrassment, despair and anger, Cartman and his mom decide to move out of state and to San Francisco, where they spend two full seasons.

The broship - as well as the whole school - will prove to be way better off without Cartman, The 3 boys will get along better without his negativity. Cartman will also be happier in San Fran, though the kids there will often mock him as his mom has a job in a strip club. Despite this, he does change his views and get along better, though his temper remains the same.

Hey guys with the post covid event coming November 24, what predictions do you want happening in the event?

Hey guys. I know I'm a day early but tomorrow, or maybe today for some of you marks the one year anniversary The Pandemic Special aired. Time really flew, can't believe it's already been a year. And it's been over six months since The Vaccination Special aired. That's all I wanted to say. The crew has been rather silent about when we should expect new episodes, but I speculate that it should come out sometime around March of 2022, and two movies are set for this year, wonder what they're about though.

While i won't be nearly as thorough as i was with my kyle and ike episode, i think that there is enough potential material here that you could draw it out into a whole movie. the series started with aliens, so a space adventure makes allot of sense as one of the 14 new movies.

here's how i think it could go:

bradley comes down in a spaceship and tells stan, kyle, and cartman to come to his planet because he needs their help communicating with an alien. kenny isn't invited and feels left out. once they arrive, they're taken to a prison where they're shown a marklar prisoner who confirms to bradley that these are the ones, and suddenly stan, kyle, and cartman are taken prisoners themselves, and it's revealed that bradley's species has been conquering the galaxy, but someone the boys know has been leading a resistance against them, so bradley wants to bait him out by taking the boys hostage. the boys speculate who it could be and wonder if that marklar knew starvin marvin; if so marvin might be taken hostage too.

after a few days of them being gone, kenny goes to henrietta to see if she's heard anything from them. she reveals that bradley stole a satanic amulet from her, and she will do anything to get it back. they team up and find a spaceship (maybe spacex, or maybe they steal the 700s club's ship from "starvin marvin in space"). not knowing where to go, kenny pulls out the mysterious photo he had of the joozians at the end of "canceled". they go planet to planet asking if anyone knows where to find those aliens in hopes that it will lead them to bradley. the photo quickly makes its wake to the galactic tabloids, and soon they have the joozians hunting them.

meanwhile after intense fighting, the boys are saved by an adult ethiopian who takes them to his ship, and then they get shot down by mintberry tie fighters. they then have to survive in the mint jungle and berry quarries. the boys keep asking about if starvin marvin is okay, and after some evasion the ethiopian man reveals that he is starvin marvin, and that it's been 22 years for him because time moves faster on marklar. after some more fighting and running around in the wilderness, they get captured.

the joozians catch up to henrietta and kenny and hand them a subpoena for defamation and forging the image with deepfakes. they then go to court on bradley's home world where starvin marvin is being put on trial as well. the emperor of the mintberry empire is brought out to be the judge, and he is revealed to be jeff bezos who had bought their entire civilization when he went into space that one time. then the resistance shows up and we get the big final battle where marvin is freed and has an epic showdown with bradley. just when it looks like bradley is going to win, henrietta beats him up and takes her amulet back. the joozians get killed in the mayhem, and everyone escapes.

bradley gets scolded by the emperor for letting them get away. on their way back to earth, henrietta talks about how important this amulet was in making her goth, then marvin, who is now a master of alien languages, reads the inscription on it which reveals it to be a mintberry artifact, and when they clean off the black soot coating the outside, it appears bright green and pink.

The end

What do you guys think? what else could be added? what other aliens do you want to see?

Hi folks, this is my first attempt at writing an episode of sp. let me know what you think. i enjoy constructive and destructive criticism. i'm not very creative when it comes to dialogue so i've mostly left that part out, so just use your imagination, and maybe suggest some lines in the comments. any other ideas and suggestions are fully welcome as well.

...and no, i don't like capitalization. fuck you.

summary: the human kite gets stuck in a tree while ike goes through intense training to become a badass, and city wok changes up its menu. this episode explores the issue of misinformation online and how different generations interact with it.

some references you may need some basic familiarity with:

• attack on titan "odm gear" is the equipment used to fight titans in aot, it includes cable launchers that basically work like grappling hooks or spiderman web, a gas booster which practically gives the wearer actual flight abilities and makes them go faster, and swords with detachable blades.

• how-to and lifehack channels such as "troom troom", "so yummy", and "5 minute crafts" are some of the biggest clickbait channels on social media, and their content isn't made with any intention of being replicated. howtobasic is an experience i wouldn't want to spoil for anyone, but let's just say it involves eggs and shovels.

------------------------------------------------------------------------

Human Kite: The Solo Adventure

act 1:

ike is in the kitchen doing an arts and crafts project that involves him stabbing a big knife into something. kyle walks in and pulls the knife away from him, ordering him to be more careful and conveying that mom and dad are away and ike is kyle's responsibility for the whole day. ike says he knows what he's doing because he's watched how to videos. kyle then angrily berates him on the dangers of misinformation on the internet, and emphasizes that little kids like him can get fooled by deceptive content really easily. ike asks why he should listen to him when he doesn't even watch tutorials and lifehack videos. kyle says that's just how it works; older people know better than younger people.

kyle tries to change topic by asking what ike is making. ike puts the mask he's crafted up to his face and announces "bumble bee boy!". kyle tells ike no, he can't play superheroes, that game is for older kids only, and ike would just end up getting hurt anyway. ike says he wants to be the human kite's sidekick, but kyle says sidekicks are totally lame. out of frustration, ike says he's tired of this stupid shit and goes upstairs.

ike quietly packs up his stuff and sneaks out of the house. after a short journey he finds himself in peril when he runs into a serial baby rapist that's escaped from the asylum (or something, idk). but then out of nowhere, kindergarteners in odm gear (from attack on titan) fly from the trees and beat up the assailant, saving ike's life. they reveal that they are all runaways, and they allow ike to join them. they ask ike for his name and h responds "i'm a bumble bee boy, yay!".

kyle realizes that ike is missing and after some panicked searching, he calls up *insert kyle's current friend group here​*. at first, they aren't eager to help, but then one of them (i'm imagining clyde) asks what the game is. kyle says this isn't a game, but clyde clarifies to ask if they should dress as elves or superheroes. after a bit of back and forth, kyle begrudgingly agrees to play superheroes as that's the only way to get them to help.

freedom pals meets at kyle's house (no toolshed since he's way out on the farm). the coon shows up peeved that he wasn't invited. human kite explains that he wasn't invited because every time they play superheroes, the coon ends up betraying them. the coon storms off warning that they will all regret this. freedom pals quickly makes a search plan and they set out.

ike is taken to the runaways' hideout in the tower of peace. there the runaways tell their stories of how they got there, and what they have to do in order to survive. -slide show plays of them dumpster diving, crafting things from garbage, and pickpocketing using their odm gear-. they state that an older kid took them in and helped mentor and train them. the head runaway, a 5th or 6th grader (maybe in a bird mask since this setup is already basically ripped straight from "the theif lord") introduces himself and gives ike a brief tour, then mentions that the reason they chose this spot is primarily the access to free wifi because some stupid boomer set the password as '12345'. "god i hate boomers" he adds.

cut to city wok where mr. lu kim is attempting to expand his menu by scrolling through recipe videos. he complains to himself about how everyone wants pretty food they can post on instagram now, nobody wants ugly chinese food anymore. he clicks on a clickbaity "so yummy" video and a clip plays with very bizarre simple instructions set to generic pop music. he follows the instructions exactly, but this just ends up creating a culinary monstrosity.

human kite and mysterion go to some open area with a very tall tree. human kite suggests that if one of them could climb to the top, they'd be able to see for miles. mysterion refuses to do it since he would just end up falling to his death, so human kite agrees to do it. he climbs through the branches and eventually reaches the top where he scans the horizon. but then a breeze catches his kite and causes him to fall through the branches. he finally stops by having the kite string get snagged in a branch and leaving him dangling from it like a pinata. his phone falls to a lower branch.

mysterion sees this and says he's going to go find help. but then a pack of wolves comes out of nowhere and kills mysterion in an especially violent and gory fashion. the human kite watches in horror.

act 2:

a tutorial video plays on how to use odm gear, and ike watches it. the runaway kids explain that all the skills they've learned about how to survive on their own came from how-to and life hack videos, including how to make their own odm gear. one of them proceeds to demonstrate making it using straws, toilet paper rolls, and hot glue. the head runaway kid explains that their training is both physical and mental, and that ike must sharpen his perception so that he can learn how to spot the good how-to videos in the sea of bs ones.

mr. lu kim is still trying new recipes, this time he's found a "howtobasic" video. he says it must be legit because of all the views it has, and he begins emulating it as it plays, pausing at each step. he comments that this is just like how he makes city- *insert gross chinese menu item​​*. fastpass walks in looking for ike but mr. lu kim ignores the inquiry as he finishes hitting the floor with a shovel. he offers fastpass a cheese burger, only $3, and he holds up some of the slop for fastpass to see. fastpass declines the offer and leaves. mr. lu kim complains again about how hard it is for a chinese man to make photogenic american food.

human kite shouts for help and unsuccessfully struggles to pull himself up when his phone rings but he can't reach it. tupperware and mosquito are at filmore's house and wonder why human kite isn't picking up, they leave a message saying that filmore said that ike is still uploading on tiktok and is just playing attack on titan with some other kids. -cut to the human kite nearly falling out of the shirt his kite is attached to-

since human kite wasn't answering, tupperware and mosquito call super craig, who tells them that he and wonder tweek ran into kevin who was showing off the real diy lightsaber he had built using instructions from the internet. fastpass joins the call and says he sees ike playing aot right now next to city wok -ike is shown behind fastpass doing some kind of odm training-, fastpass said he tried to call human kite but got no response. super craig reiterates that kevin has an actual lightsaber. after a brief pause they all conclude that this whole 'missing ike' thing was really more the human kite's solo movie, and he should be able to handle it on his own. everyone then decides to play spacemen/star wars instead.

human kite shoes off some birds and ants that have started pestering him. he is finally able to reach his phone on the lower branch by using a stick, he dials 911 and tells the operator the bare basics of his situation, but just then his mom calls and he has to hang up to answer it. sheila asks how ike is doing, and the human kite has to bs his way through the conversation, all the while being accosted by an increasing number of bugs, birds, and a random snake just for good measure. as he goes to hang up the phone, he accidentally pushes it off the branch.

-intense animation of ike using odm gear- ike takes out several mannequins/scarecrows in epic fashion. the head runaway says that he is ready for his first mission. cut to mr. mackey walking along main st. on his phone. the runaways egg on ike to take his phone, but ike looks concerned and hesitates, then he grabs diy slime from his pocket decides to stick it down mr. mackey's pants instead. "ahh! who put a dookie in my pants!?". the other runaways trip him and then take his phone, keys, and wallet.

"what the fuck was that!?" the head runaway asks angrily. ike tries to defend his tactics with incoherent babble, but then the runaway clarifies that it's not the tactics that he's asking about but rather it's the poor quality of ike's slime. he says it looks like he just copied the first "5 minute crafts" video he saw without comparing it to what other how-to videos were saying. he goes on to stress the importance of critical thinking, and watching debunking videos in addition to how-to videos, and how not doing so makes you no better than a fucking boomer. he then reveals that he lost his whole family to ivermectin. he takes a long drag of his vape before adding that they became so rich selling the stuff to stupid boomers that they moved to *insert fancy location*, and sent him off to a fancy colorado boarding school. he ends by telling ike to finish his training by watching more videos.

act 3:

the police and fire departments arrive at human kite's tree. human kite, now covered in bug bites, shouts down to them for help, but after a look through the binoculars, sgt. yates concludes that it's not a kid stuck in the tree, rather it's a sentient talking kite. the firemen say they could rescue kids and cats from trees, but talking kites were another matter completely, and they have to watch a how-to video first. human kite is pissed.

ike is being forced to watch "troom troom" videos in the tower of peace when suddenly the tower shakes from an explosion next door. ike and the runaways go into city wok to investigate, there they find mr. lu kim battling a muck demon in the half burnt down kitchen. the runaways quickly slay it for him and he thanks them. then he explains he was just doing what the how-to video told him. the head runaway then launches into a tirade about how gullible boomers are, and how there wouldn't be a misinformation problem on the internet if boomers like him weren't there constantly buying into everything they see. -ike plays with the slime like gunk from the muck demon in the background- mr. lu kim says maybe he's right and decides to unplug his router, but then get stopped by the runaways who realize that's where their wifi comes from. the head runaway then has to convince mr. lu kim to stay on the internet and after some back and forth, he offers to help mr. lu kim find the right video recipe for him.

after poking the human kite with a long pole for a bit, one of the firefighters shows everyone a video of someone using a ladder to rescue a kite. just as they're about to try it, yates interjects and says you can't trust everything you see online, and besides that video didn't even have good editing or people in lab coats so it can't be trusted. he goes on to say they need to know what this alien kite creature is capable of before they bring it down.

mr. lu kim points to something on the computer screen and tells the head runaway to click on that. the runaway says that's not even a how-to video, it's just an ad, but lu kim says that's what he wants to make, and the head runaway tells him that images like that are always too good to be true, and goes over the tricks of making food look shiny by coating it in vaseline, and using elmer's glue to make the cheese more stretchy, etc. mr. lu kim jots this down on his notepad and asks for more tips. the head runaway agrees to find video on the topic.

ike notices a news report on the tv and walks over to it. it shows sgt. yates being interviewed, he says it's important not to jump to any conclusions but- he then proceeds to lay out an elaborate conspiracy theory about kite people aliens that control the government and want to kill us all. then it shows a zoom in on human kite distantly shouting that he's just a boy in a costume that needs to find his missing brother.

it begins to rain as human kite cries watching an alien containment chamber is being set up below. but hope is restored when a police drone is sent up to communicate with him. sgt. yates' accusatory voice comes out from a speaker, and human kite again tries explaining that he's not a kite or an alien, and that all these emergency resources would be way more helpful going towards finding ike who he believes could be in serious danger. but just then a bola randomly flies in from above and tangles up the drone's propeller, causing it to plummet to the ground. yates believes the human kite must have taken it out with telekinesis.

human kite turns around to find something he didn't expect; "cartman!?". lightning flashes to reveal the coon, standing at the base of the branch that the human kite is stuck to, and he replies sarcastically about what a surprise it is to have stumbled upon the human kite here. human kite asks what he's doing here, and the coon replies that trees are the natural home of coons. human kite tells him that this is a serious and deadly situation and he doesn't have patience for this crap, then he instructs the coon to go back down and tell the cops he's just a kid in a kite costume. the coon sarcastically begins to agree to that but then interrupts himself to remind him that that morning, human kite claimed to not need the coon's help. human kite reiterates that he always betrays them, and if he doesn't help now, he'd be betraying them again! "but how can i betray you if i'm not even playing!" the coon retorts as the rain and thunder increases. human kite gives in and offers the coon renewed membership in freedom pals, but the coon points out that the freedom pals are the real traders, after all the coon is the only hero even offering to help right now. human kite tries to refute this but then sees kevin and freedom pals show up to the scene below all in sifi costumes.

one of the spacemen points up and asks the others what kyle is doing up in that tree. meanwhile a cop points out to yates that the kite appears to be communicating with some kind of giant rat or maybe a possum.

the coon proposes that human kite denounce freedom pals and rejoin coon and friends, and human kite begins to argue again, but then lightning strikes the tree and lights the trunk on fire. the coon then begins to step forward on the branch and human kite tells him to stop because he's too heavy and the branch will break killing them both. the coon keeps moving down the branch saying that there's nothing to worry about because he's brought along a *insert pop culture reference that doesn't make any sense here​* -action funtime parachute, and once he hoists human kite up, they'll be able to glide down to safety together. "but wait" the coon adds "you don't want my help, so i guess i'll be parachuting down on my own" he now stands directly above human kite. human kite goes back to capitulating and offering the coon anything he wants, and the coon begins to make additional demands, now probing the kite string menacingly with his sharp claws, but then he's interrupted by a loud cracking sound.

the branch suddenly breaks and both of them fall to a lower branch. the coon desperately clings to the lower branch while human kite hangs onto the coon's pant leg while the kite string has wrapped around the human kite's leg, and the branch they were on now dangles below them and a fire is creeping up it. the coon tells human kite to let go, but he refuses. then the coon starts kicking off his pants and says his goodbyes to human kite whose final words are "god dammit cartman!" as he falls.

-intense odm ike animation-

ike, now wearing a bumble bee mask and a sleek black and yellow outfit, grabs human kite and cuts the kite string in one swift motion and throws grenades down that explode with gunk from city wok and put out the fire as he swings away and sticks the landing over by the crowd of spacemen. "cool" one of them comments with no enthusiasm. yates along with guys in hazmat suits come to take human kite away but are suddenly scared by all the 'aliens' he's with, especially kevin when he turns on a flashlight glued to a green tinted plastic tube.

the coon swears his revenge, jumps away, and activates his parachute which carries him about 30 feet into the neighboring tree where he gets stuck.

the runaways walk up to ike and the head runaway tells him his training is now complete making him an official member of their society. but then all the kindergarteners' parents show up and ask them how their day was, and tell them nonchalantly that it's time to go home. then they thank the babysitter (the head runaway) and hand him $100. kyle thanks ike for saving him, and apologizes for what he said to him earlier, then says that he makes an awesome super hero. but craig interjects to say that attack on titan isn't a super hero show so none of the odm stuff counts. kyle recognizes his point and says if ike wants to play super heroes he needs to have some different abilities because there's no genre mixing allowed. someone asks if they want to go eat at city wok because they have really good looking food now according to the new photos on instagram. they all agree and leave, then the credits play over a lingering distant shot of the coon getting pissed off in a tree.

-THE END-

Here's some things to keep in mind:

1. Live action elements have been used in south park pretty much since the beginning.

2. We've seen hints of what this could look like in "i should have never gone ziplining" and even more so at the end of "grounded vindaloop"

3. Some of the most popular episodes have featured some change up with the animation style like in "good time with weapons" and "make love not warcraft"

4. They've got one of the best deepfake teams in the world. if you haven't seen it yet, watch "sassy justice" on youtube, al gore is super cereal!

I think that last point is super critical because of course you don't have to deepfake a celebrity. you could do it for a child actor who signs up for it. you might even superimpose, the possibly de-aged versions of, matt and trey's own faces onto an actor's body. the reason why you'd want to do that is because one of the most akward parts about going from animation to live action is that the voice of the actor doesn't match the voice of the character. with deepfakes, the kyle actor can have the actual kyle voice, the cartman actor can have cartman's voice, etc. you pretty much eliminate the risk of bad acting too because all the actor needs to do is move their body around, everything else is on post-production.

I personally can't think of a good reason not to do this for an episode or even a movie! but what do you guys think?

(possible spoilers past this point)

We know from an interview that matt did with bloomberg that they want to do a movie with their deepfake team: "We’re doing deep fakes. We have a studio with a dozen people who are deep fake artists. We’re working on a little more of this deep fake movie we’re trying to piece together". it's not guarenteed that this would be a south park movie, but when you're on the docket for 14 south park related movies! -it sounds alot like this could be one of them.

He also says "We have this idea where the first ones for Paramount+ are “South Park” but not quite. We have a high concept idea for the first one to set it apart." deepfakes = "high concept", live action = "south park but not quite". yes? no? maybe?

My picks: Clyde, Bradley and Bebe

In the Vax Special, Stan, Kyle and Cartman had a falling out, and Cartman got new buddies: Clyde, the Hispanic dude and Jimmy. For the next episode, I see this picking up where it left off, with Stan and Kyle both getting new friends too. While I see this being temporary, I also think it'll last a full season, as part of experimenting from Matt & Trey. Anyway, my picks for Stan and Kyle's new bros are:

• Stan's group: Scott Malkinson, Bradley Biggle and Craig Tucker

• Kyle's group: Tweek Tweak, Token Black and Kevin Stoley

For the first 2 episodes, I see the Kenny 2-2-3 format in effect. Throughout that time, he gets along with each of the gang members. At first all three of the groups work out great, with Cartman's group being the chummiest. However, by the episode after Kenny begins to wonder why the three boys don't hang anymore, and Kyle is forced to reveal the truth. Kenny asks Cartman if it's true what Kyle said, and he confirms it. To add insult to injury, he reveals that he's much happier with his new bros and rants about how horribly Stan and Kyle treated him over the years. Shocked and heartbroken, Kenny walks out on all three. He begins hanging with Butters regularly, who sympathizes with him as they both get used as puppets pretty much.

A few episodes pass, Cartman's group is still pretty chummy, and his buddies are far more tolerant of him than. Kyle's group has found their new scapegoat, which is Kevin Stoley, who gets blamed for all of Kyle, Tweek and Token's antics. Token also picks up Cartman's habits of saying "Kevin goddammit" when Kevin ruins the moment. Stan's group on the other hand becomes more dysfunctional. While he's still fond of Bradley despite his childish personality, he sees Scott as a complete bore and Craig as apathetic and rude. Craig also hates Stan and Bradley too, Scott doesn't like Craig either. Bradley though has fun in the group, and amuses Stan and Scott often, sometimes Craig too, but most of the time he gets on Craig's nerves.

A few episodes after, Kenny - with the help of Butters and Wendy - apologizes to the Stan, Kyle and Cartman individually for overreacting when the news broke out, and announced he respects the decision, and would like to become buddies with each of the three, regardless if they've separated or not. They all agree, though Kenny mostly hangs with Stan's group, as no one hates him there. In the second-to-last episode, Kevin reaches his breaking point and walks out of Kyle's group, stating that he's tired of being framed of it all and that they can't respect his obsessions. Tweek backs out too because of paranoia that Kevin will snitch on his actions, and the group disbands. Kyle reconciliates with Stan, and begins hanging with him and Stan's gang regularly (Token does too temporarily). Stan's gang soon disbands too, though Bradley is kept as a close separate friend. Scott and Craig are also told the harsh truth by Stan, and while Scott takes it to heart, Craig disregards it, and reunites with Tweek and Token. Butters comforts Scott, telling him he knows how it feels to get kicked out for being lame and tells him that he's always welcome to join the Chaos gang.

Heading into the season finale, Cartman's group is the last one intact. Kyle, who's revealed to have overheard Cartman's rant to Kenny a few episodes prior, wants him back, stating that while Cartman hasn't exactly been the best guy to him, he's always been the funny one in the group and maybe they've been too harsh on him. Cartman though refuses, which then has Kyle and Kenny take other measures, including spreading false rumors to both Clyde and Cartman that one's been talking shit about the other, which ignites a feud. Jimmy and the Latino kid though, suspect something's wrong, and Jimmy eventually catches Kyle in the act, and confronts him, saying that if he wants Cartman back he can talk to him personally, and that you can have more than one friend group at a time. With this, Kyle has Stan and his girlfriend Wendy (they're revealed to be back together) talk him into rejoining the circle, and that he doesn't have to give up his old friend group. Cartman agrees, and Jimmy supports his decision. In order for celebration, Clyde invites the crew, and also Cartman's old bros, in to Casa Bonita again to celebrate which they all agree, and the episode ends with photos of the boys having fun in the restaurant, but the party gets spoiled by Stan's dad, Towelie and the other parents high on Tegridy weed, which becomes too much for police to handle.

Post S24, Cartman's New Bros are seen together occasionally (once or twice per season), but season 25 would see the fall of Tegridy Farms, as well as a Christmas and New Year special, and a Valentine's episode.

Hey guys.

Now before I get into this, I just wanted to apologize about yesterday. It was not my intention for it to get heated, as I simply just wanted to share my opinions about a certain portion of the fanbase. I just want to share my opinions on a platform where people are mature enough to respect them, as that cannot be said on social media (especially Twitter). I am not trying to pick a fight or stir controversy with any of my posts, because as aforementioned, I just want to exchange opinions with the users here. And perhaps my response to one of the comments in the post that has now been locked I should have been more respectful, I should have kept my temper in check.

Okay, I said everything I felt that was needed to say, now let's get into my ideas for what could happen in a future episode, or even when we'll get a new episode.

First, considering the high ratings "The Vaccination Special" got, I doubt Comedy Central is going to be chill with the creators releasing a new episode every six months. My guess one when we can expect a new episode is maybe anytime between June/July/August.

Now what we can expect for an episode plot, I'm still trying to decide what would be best. Considering the stupidity of the adults in South Park, they all stopped wearing masks and taking safety precautions, which will very likely trigger an even deadlier wave of the coronavirus. I wouldn't be surprised if COVID numbers skyrocketed. But seriously though, I really don't want to see more of the adults, they're too stupid to have the central focus. I also hope Tegridy Farms fades into the background, or even better, shut down. I really hope the writers take the time to listen to fan criticism and drop the Tegridy Farms storyline, as it has long overstayed its welcome.

And the boys have stopped being friends, but I doubt that will last long. I saw one comment in one Youtube video that suggested that the writers are likely doing this to put more emphasis on Kenny, which could be possible. But tbh, I felt like The Vaccination Special was a giant middle finger to fans clamoring for the boys to have more screen time. Maybe the episode will focus about Kenny trying to bring his friends together again.

Those are all my thoughts, what do you think? And once again, I apologize for yesterday's inconvenience.

So it’s gonna be so long to release S24 Episode 3

Hmm.. I wonder what’s in gonna be on S24 Ep3... 🤔

Btw I very happy and excited for Ep 3 to come out... soon.

So It's very cool to see Mr. Garrison come back as Teacher, he was a really funny character back in the day and I'm Looking Forward to seeing South Park go Return-to-form,

Seeing That Picture of Trey and Matt From the 80s (maybe the 80s I'm not sure)

As most people's fan Favorite characters for Example Wendy and Heidi Didn't get roles But I Was Okay with it, Characters need to fit in with the Synopsis or Else it just becomes a mess,

The thing that worries me about the episode is the Boys Relationship, at the end they were Slite up, I'm quite worried about this.

Hopefully, Season 24 can become the best South Park we will get.

Mrs. Nelson is exactly 10 years -1 day older than me.

At her funeral she lived from 18 June 1985 - 10 March 2021.

I was born on 17 June 1995.

RIP Mrs. Nelson.

Hey guys.

So I saw The Vaccination Special, and I can honestly say that... I was not impressed.

(Warning! This post does contain spoilers. If you have not seen the episode I suggest you discontinue reading, but if you have seen it or you simply do not mind spoilers, let's dive right into this, shall we?)

While I did love how Randy only made a single appearance in the episode, and how the boys received more screen time, and how the fourth wall breaking with Robert White and Mr. Garrison was creative, but besides that I found this special to be exceedingly dull. The story is laughably generic and bland, the boys lacked good chemistry, the jokes are very non-existent, potentially fun and interesting new groups (the Lil Qties) are wasted, the kids' grudge against the boys is kinda dropped entirely, and the overall writing of the episode genuinely felt like a fanfiction.

The biggest problem that I had with this special is the portrayal of the boys, who I feel the creators completely forgot how to write all together. First, Stan's character is inconsistent. Just in the last episode he broke down for how much he misses his life (including his friends), and now he can't stand them? I understand the pandemic does cause friends to feel distant from each other, but none of the boys had the attitude that they did in this episode, and thus it feels jarring, because it seemingly came out of nowhere. I guess his mistrust is somewhat justified with Kyle, as he straight-up lied to his face and was being a hypocrite, but what about Cartman? Cartman didn't really do anything wrong to Stan, and in the previous episode he put his own desires aside after hearing Stan's speech, which to me, may be an indicator that he does truly care for Stan.

And then there's Kyle, who felt like a whole different person in this episode, aside from his disdain for Cartman and Kenny's prank on Mrs. Nelson and his anger against them for telling everyone that all of them were responsible for Mrs. Nelson quitting. I felt like Kyle was more hot-headed in this episode, and that he did not really care for his friends. Like he didn't give two shits about Cartman's attempts at trying to bring the four of them together, and then he literally becomes a hypocrite later on in the episode, as he wanted to use the vaccines for himself, while he earlier lamented his friends for their selfishness. All I can say for Kyle's character in this episode, is that they did him dirty.

Also, where did Cartman's mistrust for Stan and Kyle come from? Like I mean, earlier in the episode he was trying to bring the four of them together, and back in Season 22, he cryptically stated that he is not happy with how he and his friends barely do things together anymore, but then later he says that their "broship" is dead. I suppose he could have been pretending to bring the four of them together for Kenny's sake, but I dunno, maybe he did actually care about his relationship with his friends. Also, why did nobody talk about how Cartman chose not to be selfish, and actually do something nice for his friend in the previous episode, when he gave the pangolin back to the scientist, despite the fact that Mr. Garrison burned it.

I think Kenny was my favorite character and part of the episode. For one, he is the one who remains consistent, and I like how the writers actually remember how he exists, like I mean, he had a bigger role than Butters in this episode, and Butters has pretty much taken over his role in the show. Also, I really like how wholesome he his and his loyalty to his friends, he's the one who actually cares about keeping his friends together, to the point where he actually CRIED when Kyle was going off about how much he didn't care about their "broship". He's proven in the past how loyal he is to his friends, like for example in "Turd Burglars", where he agreed to help his friends get Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order, despite the fact he can't play it, or in The Fractured But Whole when he chose his friends over Heaven in his special attack. Although I don't like how portrayed Kenny as some kind of pet or child whose parents just divorced.

In the end when regarding the boys, I feel like them not being friends anymore is a reflection to how Matt and Trey lost the connection they used to have with them. They've stated in the past that they don't feel the same kinship to the boys as they used to now that they're older (which is why they use Randy much more often), which may explain why all of them are so fragmented now.

The other problems I had with the episode is how the Lil Qties are introduced quite late in the episode, and so they barely received any screen time which was disappointing, considering how the episode made it out that they were the militant group who would oppose the boys and they would be a prominent aspect of the episode, when they are completely wasted in the end. Also, they didn't really elaborate on how the kids are interacting with the boys, considering how all of them were pissed off that they caused Mrs. Nelson to quit. And the story's premise is just very bland to me, I can't really explain it. And my reason for the jokes being non-existent, I'm basically saying that I didn't really find this episode funny. Also one other thing I don't understand, some things happened in the trailer, that never actually happened in the episode. Like Stephen telling the boys to stay six feet apart, Red telling the boys to watch their backs at school, and Cartman talking in the bathroom with the other boys about bringing light to their school. I'm just gonna assume that they are either deleted scenes, or it could happen in the next episode.

This episode was highly anticipated, I wonder what ratings it got. But I don't know what we can expect for the next episode though. I really hope we don't have to wait another six months for a sequel to this episode, and I really hope they don't ghost us the same way they did with this special (put the show on hiatus for a while and not even communicate with the fans). While I do think the boys were poorly written in this episode, I don't think them not being friends anymore is going to last long. I hope the next episode will focus on the kids though, but I don't know what kind of role they should play, do guys have any ideas? Well those were all my thoughts, if I were to rate this episode it would probably be a solid 5/10. I'm sorry if I'm coming off as too harsh, but I just really found this episode to be disappointing. What did you think of the special? What do you expect from the next episode?
