I'm not sure how many people still watch it but there isn't much discussion about South Park anymore, despite being highly popular some years back. I think the ratings are somewhere in the 2-3 million range, which isn't nearly as high as I would think (for reference, Family Guy is about four times as much).

For those of you who watch/have seen it, do you like it, or think it's garbage?

It's good potty humor. Sometimes it gets stupid for its own good but it's still a good show.

Up to this season, yes. But this season has been absolutely terrible.

It's doing much better than The Simpsons, that's for sure.

If you take it as a whole, then yes. But as of late it has really gone down hill.

It's dropped off a bit from the heyday, but it's still a good show.

I think it is. Behind the low-brow humor lies a show mocking everything around it, something the internet does on a regular basis.

That and I find it funny.

South Park is only a good show if you don't want any intelligent humor. There are a few little clever things, but it's close to being on par with how stupid Family Guy is. If you've turned your brain off, it might be okay. Otherwise, if you're looking for real quality humor, there isn't much there.

I like it. Sure it's gone downhill over the years, but then what show that's been on for 15 years hasn't?

I keep up with pop culture so I still enjoy it though some of the newer episodes are meh and not all that funny, but thank god for netflix streaming the series. I can watch the old episodes any time I want.

I dont like it at all. A few episodes are great, but the number of insanely stupid episodes outweigh the great ones by a lot. like xile said, it lacks any intelligent humor.

Sometims the crass humor gets out of control, but really it is a pretty funny show. I haven't seen much of the new season, but even episodes from just a couple years ago were pretty great. Like someone said, beneath all the language and crude humor is some pretty clever satirizing of current events, politics, and humanity as a whole.

I've always liked the show. I find it very underhandedly intelligent and very enjoyable due to both the absurdity and there often still being some kind of a moral lesson.

Easily my favorite.

Last season only had a few good episodes. Good show but it definitely has been going downhill for years. Hit or miss for sure.

I haven't watched it since I was like 11, when my sister would sneak it on while my parents were gone because we were told we weren't allowed to watch it.

One day I'm just going to sit down with the season dvds and watch it. One day...

Family guy is of a quality lower than turd nublets. If you actually find it funny, you're 12 years old, or younger and SO amused at watching 'adult' tv. South park is really on the same hand. Like I said, some clever jabs here and there, but most of it is racism, sexism, Kenny dies, Cartman whines and makes jew jokes, etc etc etc. South Park doesn't require many brain cells to like. If it's hysterically funny to you, you're probably still getting used to having pubic hair. The older you get the less funny it becomes. By the time I became the 'appropriate age' for either show, they weren't funny anymore.

Older seasons are much better than newer ones, it's hit and miss now, but overall a good show though a bit on the overrated side.

Liking South Park has nothing to do with age, only taste.

Can't say. I used to watch it, but then I just got sort of sick of it, and I haven't watched it within about the last 4 years. But it used to be good. Hell, even when I got sick of it, I guess it was still pretty good. I just got turned off because the show seemed to be getting to preachy, with every episode forcing some kind of message. I don't mind that every once in a while, but they were really going over-the-top with that, and I just stopped wanting to watch it. I guess I still wouldn't even say that the show was bad, that just wasn't really my thing.

WAY better than Family Guy or Futurama, or in my opinion like it better than the simpsons. I just thought that Homer was annoying, Cartman is annoying but just gets me every time.

Honestly I haven't watched it enough to give a proper opinion, but it comes across that the two writers are just a bunch of basement dwelling men who see something on TV and make jokes about it on their show. It doesn't seem like they put any real thought into their writing.

Putting a piece of crap show like South Park over the greatness that is Futurama should be a criminal offense.

Ok, so according to you, I must have a low mental capacity, 12 years old, and getting used to my pubic hair, simply because I like South Park.

I have seen every episode at least three times, and yes, it started to go downhill after TEN or ELEVEN years, but the show is indisputably f*cking kickass. The more you hate it, the more we won't really give a flying cat-orgy f*ck.

InEMplease
Na, it was always bad. They're really bad at writing and nothing is ever thought out. They often have to rely on shock value due to their lack of skills at writing stuff that is actually funny. There is no depth to the show, only stupidity. If you find stupidity funny like I know some do, congrats, the show is definitely for you.I prefer to watch shows with at least decent writing though, stuff that has witt and is clever. The exact opposite of South Park.

Watch any episode between season 1-5.

I've seen a lot of South Park episodes. They have a few good ones (I can think of about 4 that I actually liked) , but they're mostly crap.

South Park is fvcking awesome. Haven't seen any of the new episodes though. And I'm sick of this "intelligent media" attitude that if you like family guy, south park, pop music etc, than your an idiot. A lot of "intelligent" humour sucks anyways.

Yes, I'm sure you have.

lol. I've seen at least 30 episodes. Probably more. But I figured you would doubt me seeing as I don't like the show. Typical move. It's the ever so common "If someone doesn't like a show, they couldn't have watched it."

Overall, it is a decent show. Of course, many mentally inept individuals will lambast any who like it... But I digress. There are certainly better animated shows on television.

Funny you should ask. I never paid much attention to it and the epsiodes I saw several years ago I didn't remember liking but recently I started watching it on Netflix and now I absolutely love it. I watch it all the time now.

the first few seasons were good. than after that the show became cliche and kinda of lame.
