South Park: The Streaming Wars Part 2 (2022)
Season 25, Episode 8
7/10
Not funny enough, but it does make you think
4 August 2022
This episode is more introspective than funny, which makes it a pretty weak entry. There's a few jokes repeated over and over that don't land. The interesting streaming wars plot turns into the Pi-Pi show, which serves mostly to gross-out and disappoint. However the best things about the episode come from semi-serious moments. MBP seems a little shoehorned in, but the episode often meditates on the state of South Park itself. Randy's character arc hear isn't funny really, but it sort of feels like the creators are talking directly to their audience. The theme of streaming services ruining everything (namely South Park's groove) makes both parts of the episode worth a watch. This is a take on, more or less, their own situation.
