I love that it looks like it will be up to Randy to destroy his own creation.

So Jenner's pretty much the new Mr. Slave now?

Her running over people never gets old.
And that whole bit with Garrison about wearing a mustache was killing me.

They really don't like Caitlyn, do they?

Is it going to turn out that this entire season has been a commercial for Whole Foods?

I like the specific details of the frat boys hunger strike...

Randy was awesome as usual, but kind of a weak finale.

Yeah... they sort of ran out of steam with the long arc this year and I'm not even sure what the takeaway was supposed to be. It feels like really wanted to do an episode around everyone having guns, but since they had to wrap up the PC principal/ads arc they just sort of shmooshed them together.

Re: South Park (Comedy Central) -- Season 19 Thread

I was a bit disappointed in the finale myself. I don't know if they needed another episode, or something went over my head, but it just didn't seem fully fleshed out.

I thought the gun bit was a little overdone, but then again my favorite part was when each confrontation would end with them talking it out and someone saying how great guns are at solving problems.

I thought the format of the gun show was hilarious, especially when the mayor started using the clicker and feeding herself treats.

Decent episode but it lacked the punch line I think many of us expected for a season-long arc.

Even though the prior two seasons had running continuity, neither of them had, at least from what I remember, a season-long story arc like this one did. I don't know if Matt and Trey had an outline of some sort for this story line from the get-go or if they made the season their usual way which, based on what they've said in their commentaries, sounds like they make up as they go along. If this season was made the usual way, that may have been the weak link.

The season had it's moments, and I did think it was pretty funny early on, but a lot of the episodes felt like half thought out ideas and the ad stuff I thought was bizarre, even for South Park. Maybe they did need another episode just to wrap everything up cleanly.

I thought the season was pretty good, but ending on a relatively weak note probably made it seem weaker than it was compared to going back and adding up all of the individual scores.
