I think you're right, they do (or did) like her. But she got parodied in "The Problem with a Poo" (S22E03).

Which is funny because one of the most famous quotes when it comes to their personal political position is Matt stone with "I hate conservatives but I really fucking hate liberals".

In the end all they are trying to do is just to be funny. And they nail that, even in the 3rd decade. They are the perfect example of an "equal opportunity offender".

Now that's a rare take. Usually the first 2 seasons are regarded as the worst and have very childish humour compared to later ones.

Season 10 is pretty much the start of peak South Park. It had the Cartoon Wars two parter and the iconic Warcraft episode. Also introduced ManBearPig and the "Nice" meme ...

I think my least favourite season would be the 20th which is the whole Garrison as Trump story line. They really wrote themselves into a couple of corners with that one. Though the troll-trace subplot is amazing.

I think it's 6 episodes and 2 specials a year now. The first one already dropped this year. "The End of Obesity".

I've been watching it the day it came out in 1997 and while it had it's ups and downs, the show still mostly holds up today. And even the brand new stuff still sometimes makes you go “They really put that in there??” which I think just shows how brilliant the show is.

The IBM Simon, Nokia Communicator or Ericsson R380 for example.

I totally agree. But the question was about inventions not mass adaption.

That's like saying Henry Ford invented the car because the Model T was the first widely available one.

Sure, but the iPhone was far from the first smartphone.

That was 20th century.

From what I understand that wouldn't really help. If you don't to see downvotes you have to move your account to an instance with downvotes disabled.

I watched "Frieren: Beyond Journey's End" a few weeks ago which is probably my first proper anime (not counting the odd episode of Dragon Ball, Sailor Moon or OnePiece I caught on TV as a child) and I really enjoyed it.

Especially the slow but deep character build up and general world building and exploration themes were really captivating. So I'm looking for something similar with focus on these aspects.

So far I found "Wandering Witch: The Journey of Elaina", which was ok but didn't quite live up to Frieren and wasn't nearly as captivating.

So does anyone know similar shows or at least shows that focus on the aspects of story telling I mentioned avove?
