Warning: Full spoilers for the episode below.
South Park has transitioned to a more serialized approach to storytelling over the last few years, which has generally worked to the show’s benefit. That said, these first few installments of Season 20 have me wondering if Trey Parker and Matt Stone are pushing their newfound love of continuity a little too far. “The Damned” certainly did a better job of juggling its numerous plot threads than “Member Berries” did two weeks ago. However, with so much emphasis on plot continuity, it’s beginning to feel like these episodes have no individual identity.
This season continues to cast a wide net in terms of what it spoofs. This week delivered the next chapter in the ongoing saga of Skankhunt42, the fallout of Cartman’s forced exit from social media, the rumblings of war in troll-averse Denmark, more tomfoolery in the US Presidential election and the return of those alluring Member Berries. Again, generally “The Damned did a better job than “Member Berries” of tying all these threads together. There’s now a clearer sense of how all of this is meant to fit together. Leave it to Randy to sum it up succinctly and eloquently - “Everything sucks.”
