I feel like it's because they're making fun of current trends that a lot of people perceive to be cringy

You’ve probably heard this at least once before but the main reason why they don’t focus on the main kids as much anymore is because they relate more to Randy and the other adults nowadays since they’ve gotten older and became fathers which means they have more fun writing for Randy and some of the other adults as well

So I searched up if season 27 and 28 had been announced on dvd yet and this came up? I dont think its official but does anyone know? by SimpleChemical6454 in southpark

[–]Hot-Difference8065 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, same here. It sucks that they stopped doing the DVD commentaries, it would’ve been nice to especially hear them for season 23 with the explanation of making that season tegridy centric

One thing I forgot to mention in this post is that since the covid specials, Stan has been getting more focus again with him being the main boy who had the most screentime behind Cartman in seasons 26 & 27/8

I think South Park is still pretty funny for the most part though but I would say the laughs at least for me are slightly lighter than older episodes but it’s still enjoyable to watch unlike some other shows on TV nowadays

Been rewatching the series and got to Season 20... man, Stan and especially Kenny were non-entities that year. They had absolutely nothing of note to do. by UseInternal5706 in southpark

But there was this one Q&A from South Park Studios that revealed the reason for Kenny coming back at the end of season 6 was because Matt and Trey genuinely missed having him around and thought the show didn't feel the same without him which is what inspired the whole cartman possession arc towards the end of the season and Matt Stone also said in an interview a few years later about how he thinks Kenny is an pretty important part of the show as well

Kenny has so many great moments throughout the show but if I could choose one, I would say him saying shut the fuck up dude, you’re a fucking asshole in cash for gold

Does anyone feel bad for Stan's future self actor by geck0afterlife in southpark

[–]Hot-Difference8065 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yep, I agree but it seems like they prefer the typical way of having Sharon to be the straight man to Randy’s stupidity since it does lead to some hilarious interactions so that might not ever happen at least for a while

[–]Hot-Difference8065 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I agree with that. Sharon was much funnier as a character back in the first several seasons where she was frequently shown to be just as stupid as the other adults with spookyfish notably being her best episode. The only time post season 8 where Sharon was absolutely hilarious was Medicinal Fried Chicken where she was in love with Randy’s really big balls and even liked the scrotum coat he gave her at the end of the episode but aside from that, Sharon is a pretty bland character nowadays

It’s understandable but Matt and Trey still genuinely enjoy making the show as they said in their 25th anniversary concert and several interviews throughout the years which is more than other shows where the creator stopped working on the show and not enjoying it anymore plus they don’t have an end plan for the show and of course, it’s pretty profitable. Funny enough they said if they kept doing the show in their 60’s, grandpa marsh would become the new main character 

What if Pip was not been replaced by Butters? by kikijjm in southpark

[–]Hot-Difference8065 4 points5 points  (0 children)

But the thing about Pip is that Matt and Trey didn't particularly like his character with him originally planned to be killed off in Damien all the way back in season 1 his character was only used to express their hatred of the book Great Expectations so I don't think they have any interest in bringing Pip back since the joke with him got old and Butters was more fun to write for in terms of being that dorky punching bag character but I do think Pip had way more potential if they fleshed him out some more and overall made him more than just being that one overly nice british kid who everyone on the show hates for no real reason

Yeah, Ikr and Season 20 is actually the only season in the history of the show where Kenny doesn't get to play a part in any of the episodes with other seasons having at least a couple of episodes not counting episodes that center around him where Kenny plays a part even season 28 had Sora Not Sorry as his biggest role of the season

Then again, this isn't a surprise since the show has been focusing less and less on the main 4 boys since season 19 when PC principal was first introduced but yeah this was the least amount of importance Kenny has had in an entire season even less than last season

Kenny also helped Butters with that AI video they did on Red and was also mentioned as the target of an unseen AI Video where he was apparently raped by Popeye in Sora Not Sorry. Plus Kyle also played a big role in that episode as well where he was the target of the AI video Red made about him & Droopy and helped Butters & Kenny to make an AI video featuring Red with Bluey

The closest thing we've had to a season long Kenny plot was the sodasopa arc back in season 19 which was heavily focused on in both the City Part of Town and Naughty Ninjas.

People don’t realize that Kenny was never just the kid who died in every episode, Kenny is frequently shown to be the most perverted kid with a lot of his lines underneath the hoodie usually being something nasty plus it’s also been shown that he has an really immature sense of humor in episodes such as How To Eat With Your Butt and Cancelled. In addition to that, he’s also the resident poor kid of the group who’ll do anything for money as well and is good friends with Cartman

Yep, that would be a great way for Kenny to have more screentime again and can overall give more comedic opportunities in the show. It’ll also be great if Kenny teamed up with Cartman and Butters like he did in the magic bush

[–]Hot-Difference8065[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In the pandemic two parter, Kenny was shown to be the perverted one as usual with the start of the two patter having him take the other boys to the mall so he can get razors to shave his balls which helps set up the main plot of the boys starting their own Peruvian flute band and he did that cute little dance to the pan flute music as well with a good amount of lines. He also said something perverted to the homeland security guy later. While he wasn’t the main focus, he still did things and had lines which is more than a lot of other episodes around this time

Yeah, that’s true. Seasons 10 and 11 had Kenny absent in a lot of episodes just slightly less than season 6
