South Park (2025) – Still Offending Everyone, Still Absolutely Brilliant

Almost 30 years in—and still the most dangerous show on television.

South Park (2025) continues its legendary run as one of the most fearless, biting, and culturally relevant animated series of all time. Created by Trey Parker and Matt Stone, the series has never backed down from controversy—and in its 29th season, it proves once again that satire is alive and very unwell in the small, snowy town of South Park, Colorado.

This season dives headfirst into the madness of the modern world: artificial intelligence running for mayor, TikTok cults taking over schools, climate change denial reaching cartoonish extremes, and a billionaire buying up every house in town to create a “freedom-themed” gated utopia. As always, Stan, Kyle, Cartman, and Kenny are at the center of the absurdity, trying to make sense of an increasingly insane society with a mix of childlike naivety and brutal honesty.

One standout episode, “DeepFaked and Afraid,” parodies the explosion of AI-generated content, with Cartman discovering how to fake anyone’s identity online—sparking chaos in the town and a Supreme Court hearing. Meanwhile, Randy Marsh continues to turn Tegridy Farms into a crypto-powered weed empire, and Mr. Garrison, still somehow teaching, becomes a reluctant reality TV star.

What sets South Park apart in 2025 is not just its fearless humor but its evolution. The animation is sharper, the satire more layered, and the storytelling even more daring. It mocks everything from politics to pop culture—but always with a twisted form of truth that keeps it culturally vital. In a world full of filters, South Park remains gloriously unfiltered.
