Season 20 Review: South Park never takes the easy route nor does it ever take it easy on anyone. For that, it’s become a voice worth hearing every year, and one we’ll be eager to engage with throughout Season 20. Read full review

Season 1 Review: Has as much nerve as "The Simpsons" when it burst on the scene. [11 Aug 1997]

Season 1 Review: Crude in execution, harsh by design, South Park is deliciously deranged. Don't bite unless you have a taste for the tasteless. [13 Aug 1997]

Season 1 Review: Even at its meanest, "South Park" is seldom mean-spirited, and it's often outrageously funny. [13 Aug 1997]

Season 1 Review: Blatantly designed to tickle the funny bones of teenage boys and those who think like them, the show delivers plenty of lowbrow laughs, at the same time indulging in excesses seemingly calculated to shock the sensibilities of TV watchdogs. [13 Aug 1997]

Season 1 Review: Uneven ... The series often seems more crude than irreverent, and its satirical targets too familiar and easy to hit. ... However uneven it is now, "South Park" seems to have a future. [17 Aug 1997]

Season 1 Review: It's dismissible juvenilia ... a collection of poorly paced, lowest-common-denominator setups that are not even sophomorically funny or scatologically goofy. [13 Aug 1997]

This animated sitcom can pull off the best political and social satire than any other show on the planet in the most hilarious way possible. South Park can make fun of anything and every taboo without hesitation and make you bust a gut laughing. Definitely, one of my favorites.

South Park is the best cartoon ever made, hands down. It's got some of the most unique animation in a cartoon out there, the most recognizable style and characters, the comedy is on-point, no one is spared and everyone can get a good laugh, the story is also on-point, everything is good.South Park is the best cartoon ever made, hands down.

It is my favorite cartoon show and one of my favorite shows of all time. I have to mark it down only slightly because occasionally there are predictable plots and jokes that are too simple, but for the most part, South Park is a show to cherish and look forward to.… Expand

Me encanta South park asi que mi opinion va a ser del lado de un fan. Me parece graciosa con un humor acido y bulgar. Es verdad que hubo Temporadas que bajo el nivel, Supo redimirse y Mejorar. Me ansia lo que se viene y es una serie que puede dar todavia mas.

I used to like South Park, but the quality of the writing has gone down considerably in recent seasons. I doubt I'll watch anymore.
