Don't watch it regularly but I think I saw this one way back, and the appearance of Moses as "super-computer" is more specifically the MCP from Tron. (Which had David Warner's face.)

B-b-b-b-but South Park is very pro-gay! Big Gay Al is, like, one of the most likeable characters ever!
Anyway: classic, if only for being the first tv show in the history of mankind to accurately portray what kids are really like (i.e. mean-hearted, sadistic bastards.) Also great: the deliberatley anti climatic endings ("yeah man, cartoons kick ass!" is my favourite)

On a related note, has anyone else been profoundly dissapointedwith the latest season of Home Movies? I mean, there's stilla few funny bits per episode, mostly featuring McGurk, butthat's a far cry from the nonstop, jaw-dropping hilarity of 75% ofall the previous episodes!

I'm sorry, but this is flat-out wrong. The ONLY Ren & Stimpy episode that can compare to South PArk is "Space Madness".

The premise is that COVID is "nearly beaten" so things will get back to normal "soon". Trouble is, it's 40 years later.
It's a fairly gun romp at times which closes out the Randy stories of the past couple of seasons and has none-too-subtle digs at anti-vaxxers, cryptocurrency and woke comedians along with some interesting characterisation of what the cast are like at that age.
To be honest, I'd be happy if it was the end of the show. It's a perfectly good full stop, in much the same way that You Got Old was.

This show is not ending - it's been extended to its 30th season, with 14 additional movies to be made in between.

It's okay. They got given a massive sum of money to make a dozen or so hour-long specials. The result is that it feels a bit like they don't need money, ratings or notoriety so they are just doing whatever they want, even if it's not really very funny. The format was already evolving over the past few series but it's now feels very different from classic South Park. Reminds me a bit of when Red Dwarf did a series with longer, unfunny episodes and half the cast missing or changed.
It's plot-heavy and there are not many gags and some of them are old, or just fall flat. Removing the kids seems like it would put the show in every shark-jump top ten list forever. Cartman is totally neutered and Butters isn't present so they've lost the best characters. The parents and teachers etc are barely there so they've removed that important dynamic. Kinda expect everything to go back to normal but maybe not.
― everything, Monday, 29 November 2021 20:03 (two years ago) link
It's still pretty good though. 3 bags of popcorn and maybe it'll get better once Butters and the real Cartman show up.
― everything, Monday, 29 November 2021 20:11 (two years ago) link
Didn't mean to imply it was ending, just that it would have made a satisfactory coda.
Butters isn't present
Well, he is, but...

Yes, I do expect the next episode to be funnier.

There was a point where the show started getting heavily serialized and I was kind of curious to see how that would play out, but the character of "PC Principal" was so detached from reality it was hard to watch so much of him. Yes, even for South Park, it was too stupid.
― Nhex, Monday, 29 November 2021 20:56 (two years ago) link
I loved PC Principal

The second part was pretty funny. I watched it with a few others and we were all laughing a lot. Still think they wasted Cartman but Butters destiny was pretty lol.

Thought this was pretty cool, and like many non-Coloradans, I didn’t know if it was a real place or something they’d come up with for the show:https://www.nytimes.com/2023/06/06/us/casa-bonita-restaurant.html
