When watching a show a while after it’s released you can sometimes tell when a show was canceled because a season will end on a big (occasionally spiteful) event.

The following season after it’s picked back up occasionally stumbles a bit but I’m wondering what examples can you think of that were especially bad?

    SP is still relevant but when this other co writer joined and the whole trump shit went down it kinda lost much of its appeal. i am not even sure if it is a regular show or not anymore…do they plan put out weekly episodes again some time soon?

      IIRC the Trump stuff was even more of a scramble than South Park usually is, because they were just assuming Hilary would win and had planned out a bunch of stuff around that, so when Trump won they had to dump everything and quickly do something with that.

      Probably the closest we’ll ever see to a cartoon being produced live I think!

      Not really they just release specials every once in a while.

      On August 5, 2021, Comedy Central announced that Parker and Stone signed a $900 million deal for extending the series to 30 seasons through 2027.[14] The deal also included a series of 14 films for Paramount+, which are released twice per year.[15] Parker and Stone later denied that the projects were films, and clarified that it was ViacomCBS (currently Paramount Global) which decided to advertise them as such.[16] Paramount+ advertises the projects as “exclusive events”, and they are generally accepted to be television specials.[17] - Wiki
