South Park said what?

We were all thinking, stop it.

I didn't do anything.

You know, Peter was dead.

I didn't start by saying Peter is dead.

I started by saying they want me to acknowledge Peter for this list.

We'll be looking at episodes where South Park reflected what was going through most of our heads, even if we didn't share our thoughts out loud, which South Park episode do you think told it like it is?

Let us know in the comments Number 10, streaming is better than cable with streaming offering a more convenient, cheaper and all around superior alternative.

More and more TV viewers are cutting cable.

I love you.

Well, I love you so much dad.

It'd be one thing if cable companies upped their game and grew with the times.

Instead, loyal customers are rewarded with slow service and workers who show up whenever they feel like it.

Anyone who's ever been given a five hour service window will identify with the frustration that this episode captures to a T.

Well, finally, the cable company gave us a window of noon to five for you to show up.

It's 5, 15, only 15 minutes late.

The episode also finds timely commentary in the launch of Disney Plus and how enamored audiences were with the Mandalorian.

The ultimate irony is that South Park dominated basic cable ratings for years with the rise of hulu, HBO max and paramount plus though even South Park knows that cable is a dinosaur, making little niche programs for everybody.

That's what you want.

Yeah, I think I do number nine user agreements with iphones and ipads becoming part of everyday life.

We've all signed a user agreement at some point.

How many of you actually read a user agreement though.

When you downloaded the last itunes update a window on your screen popped up and asked you if you agree to our terms and conditions, you clicked agree.

Alright, let's get into the water tank long, confusing and written in the tiniest font possible.

Most of us would rather sign and accept any consequences rather than be inconvenienced South Park imagines the worst case scenario.

We're failing to read the terms and conditions Lands Kyle in the middle of a human scent ipad.

What are you going to do to us?

Everything that you agreed to in the itunes conditions.

While we're pretty sure that's never happened in real life, the episode does reflect how casual people are about signing legal contracts without even reading them.

It's also a spot on depiction of Apple's marketing, convincing consumers that their products are the best and cheaper alternatives are for losers.

No, I don't want to join Apple.

I like my pc.

Number eight.

The media and public's treatment of Britney Spears in the late two thousands Britney Spears was an easy target for comedy and a lot of people took the low hanging fruit interrupt this debate for an emergency news bulletin.

It's Britney Watch South Park wasn't an exception, but the writers took a unique approach.

They put the mirror up to the audience and said what most of us knew deep down, maybe we should stop obsessing over this struggling celebrity and you know, get a life.

It was unpopular for people to say leave Brittany alone.

Hence why many kept quiet.

Hang on, fellas, don't you think he's been through enough?

I mean, maybe it's finally time for us all to just leave her alone during Spears's darkest Hour though, South Park served as an unlikely moral compass.

Various journalists, comedians and members of the general public continued to ignore that little voice inside with the recent reevaluation of how Spears was treated.

However, this episode has only gotten more identifiable.

It's all of America Kyle, we're all a part of this together.

You know about all this.

Number seven Avatar looks a lot like another movie nowadays, it's practically a cliche to joke that avatar is a rip off of dances with wolves and Pocahontas and fern gully and a dozen other movies a month before avatar even hit theaters, South Park beat everyone to the punch line.

No, you must leave alone who's behind all this.

Well, maybe not everyone.

Even after the first trailer for Avatar was released, a lot of people noticed similarities to Kevin Costner's 1990 best picture winner.

They also noticed that the characters looked like smurfs, albeit taller and more alluring South Park was still one of the first mainstream properties to call out James Cameron for taking a familiar story and calling it something else.

Luckily with the money I made selling the movie rights to my book, I'll be okay.

You sold the movie rights to who?

James Cameron.

It's too bad.

Cartman didn't secure the film rights because avatar is still the highest grossing movie of all time was my idea.

My idea number six, our dependence on the internet for eons, humanity survived without the internet.

Now that we've gotten a taste of it, society would likely descend into anarchy without the web.

Everyone just just calm down, calm down.

All right, it's going to be OK.

We just can't panic.

This episode accurately depicts the panic and uncertainty we all feel when the wifi is down.

Unfortunately, it isn't just stands house without a connection.

It's a technical issue that reaches far beyond South Park.

Look, if you if you do find internet, let us know, will you how you won't have internet.

We all rely on the internet for work, entertainment, communication, and some other things that are better left behind closed doors.

The episode speaks to our fear that one day it could all be gone thankfully there's a simple solution in this case.

Nothing's more revealing than seeing a green light on our router and randy's closing remarks about over logging on, really hit home.

But if we don't treat the internet with the respect that it deserves, it could one day be gone forever.

Number five, the writer's strike from november 2007 to february 2008, the writers guild of America strike brought the industry to a halt.

Nobody takes us Canadians seriously.

It's like the world doesn't respect Canada at all.

Although Trey, Parker and Matt Stone aren't part of the union, the strike commenced and ended around the same time South Park was on its break when South Park returned, Parker and Stone didn't hesitate to say what most of their writer friends were thinking the strike wasn't the best idea.

Well, we didn't get everything that we wanted, but we negotiated hard and we got these coupons to Bennigan's while the strike was intended to increase the funding that writers deserve, it reportedly lost anywhere between millions and billions.

Parker described the episode as a docudrama exploring how many writers regretted the strike and attempted to save face by the end, few W.

G.

A members would admit this, but South Park wasn't afraid to speak out, no matter what happens, I would never call off this strike, even if it means we all die.

Number four social media sucking us in facebook was arguably at its most dominant in 2010 and South Park did a commendable job at portraying the different viewpoints on it, so I'm I'm not your friend, then dad, you are my friend, but you just don't want to add me as a friend for Kyle, it's a gateway to friendship and if he doesn't have any friends on social media, he has none in the real world.

Stan could care less about facebook, but he's reluctantly forced to participate.

It isn't long until facebook starts affecting stan's real life relationships as others.

Obsess over his online activity or lack thereof.

Stan grandma said she poked you and you haven't sent a poke back dad, I didn't even want to do dan poke your grandma.

Many of us realize that the number of facebook friends you have isn't an accurate measure of how complete your life is.

Once facebook has you though, it's hard to break free on top of that.

We all knew somebody who took Farmville way too seriously.

I really need a friend right now.

Okay dude, I'm here for you.

Okay, so then get on facebook and fertilize my crops Number three censorship.

South Park has always been a controversial show, but people sometimes forget just how up in arms parents and sensors were during the early years, young man, you are not to watch that show anymore.

It's immature toilet humor, ironically having Kenny die in every episode wasn't seen as that big a deal.

But spreading foul language on the airwaves would be the downfall of civilization as the parents of South Park protest the crude humor on tv.

They ignored their Children as death literally comes to town.

What is it Stanley hon did you break something?

Mom, death is here and he's trying to take us all away with them.

While the South Park movie would expand upon these themes.

This was the first episode to say what fans of the show new tv isn't the problem.

The problem is that parents view tv as a babysitter when they should be taking the time to educate nurture and monitor their Children.

Thank you ladies and gentlemen, if there are any questions, you may direct them to that brick wall over there.

Number two political candidates every four years, Republicans and democrats act as if their presidential candidate is going to fix everything.

You don't see the point, Oh you young people just make me sick Stanley.

Do you know how many people died?

So you could have the right to vote while some political leaders have changed the world for the better.

Our options are usually limited to what South Park describes as a giant douche or a turd sandwich as such stan simply doesn't care about the outcome.

I'm not gonna be persuaded into voting and I'm not gonna be threatened into voting if I don't feel comfortable with it.

When stan refuses to vote, he's shamed and exiled until he finally relents.

Most people won't admit that both sides of the political spectrum are flawed and actually share a fair deal in common this episode unearths the unspoken truth that we struggle to accept whoever wins?

We all lose to an extent voting matters.

But when these are our options, should we really be this hostile towards each other Kenny?

We have got to make stand understand the importance of voting because he'll definitely vote for our guy before we unveil our top pick here are a few honorable mentions.

Political correctness being P.

C.

Can be a good thing, but not when delivered with violence and threats.

Have a seat.

I've been talking with your child and we're gonna be giving him two weeks detention.

What's this about, Kyle, your son said some things to 1/4 grade girl that frankly make me want to puke scientology.

We'd elaborate but we don't want to get sued.

We are gonna sue you.

What?

Yeah.

You think you can say our religion is a lie.

We'll sue you buddy.

You told me it was a lie George Zimmerman double standards are still very much a problem.

Wait, what guilty john Edward.

For anyone who ever watched crossing over and the winner for biggest douche in the universe is it's john Edward Milky Way.

Galaxy Planet Earth, Come on now.

All the celebrity deaths.

The summer of 2009 was quite the ordeal.

I see dead self expertise.

You mean?

You see dead celebrities on tv in the news before we continue?

Just when you thought the political world couldn't get more topsy turvy Garrison was elected president.

Mirroring donald trump's ascension to the White House.

The people have spoken just as J.

J.

Abrams did with star Wars.

I will make this country great again.

Even the South Park creators were expecting a Hillary clinton victory, forcing them to make numerous changes.

At the 11th hour, the episode encapsulates the confusion, disbelief and anger.

Many experienced when they realized who the 45th US president was going to be.

Do you have any idea what you've done to our country?

Yeah.

Unlike their past election shows, this episode appropriately doesn't wrap everything up in a tidy package.

Instead.

That leaves us with three options, drink the kool aid, try escaping to mars or buckle in for what's bound to be an unpredictable presidency.

And for the next four years, South Park continued to say what we were all thinking.

It sucks dad, this country is gonna suck for four years.
