As I’ve said many times before, “South Park” must be protected at all costs. “South Park” and “Always Sunny” are the only two shows on TV that aren’t afraid to go after everyone and everything.

In 2021, we need refreshing and blunt comedy more than ever before. We live in an era when the wrong joke might get the woke mob to cancel you.

“South Park” is too powerful to stop and that’s why we should all hope we get as many seasons as possible. We need somebody flipping the middle finger to all the people who sit around and complain, and nobody does it better than Stone and Parker.

Also, if you haven’t watched the pandemic specials “South Park” aired, I’d recommend watching them both. Neither is the best content we’ve ever seen from the show, but they’re still worth checking out.

Now, we wait until 2022 gets here so we can get some new episodes!
