How did they manage to take the potential for one of the better gags in the series and then make them into something people absolutely despised halfway through the show?
>>
>>88607767
I'm not seeing the potential, and that's coming from someone who dropped the season at episode 1.
>>
>>88607767
Because Trump winning the election derailed the plotline. They tried to salvage it but even they know the result was shit.
>>
>>88607805
They could have been good at least for quips, or making fun of their own show even.

Instead, they wouldn't shut up about Star Wars.

Also the flawed argument that I hate that "all nostalgia is really just secret racism."
>>
>>88607767
Member when I gave a fuck?
I don't member
>>
>>88607824
I'm talking about the Member Berries in specific. By Episode 3 I was already sick of them.
>>
>>88607767
they were betting on Hillary to win
>>
>>88607805
Agreed. Member Berries aren't even used to mock nostalgia goggles anymore, now they're just used to discredit anything that a person dislikes. I saw someone say "Member Rick and Morty?"

There's no substance to Member Berries. It's pure circlejerking.

Also, Kyle's family (Ike aside) isn't funny. Why they became the centerpiece of the season is anyone's guess.
>>
>>88607767
Member Berries were a one-joke concept, and while usually South Park is good at milking those for an episode, they fucked up by thinking they could do it for an entire SEASON.
>>
>>88607885
Eh, Kyle's mom was okay.

Also the Member Berries just WOULDN'T shut up about fucking Star Wars.
>>
>>88607832
That wasn't the argument though.
>>
If they Member'd more than fucking Star Wars they would be better, I am just tired of hearing them say the same thing voer and over, that goes for every other character this season as well. There is a difference between running gag and literally just repeating the same thing over and over.
>>
>>88608024
Wasn't it?
>>
>>88607885
People were whining about Randy overload, Cartman's dad is dead and Stuart is too drunk and stupid to troll anyone.
And Sheila's always been the outraged lady.
>>
>>88607970
Yeah, they really hated Force Awakens. I get the complaints; I'm not a fan. But it isn't comically bad. Definitely not bad enough to warrant a whole season dedicated to shitting on it.

>>88608075
I hadn't thought about that.
>>
>>88608048
Nah.
I doubt they were arguing liking Chewbacca is racist.

It was more "nostalgia is dumb, and part of societal nostalgia can include racism".
>>
>>88608114
>It was more "nostalgia is dumb, and part of societal nostalgia can include racism".

All I got from it was the progressive motto of "forward march, and call all those who dare look backwards a bigot."
>>
>>88607832
>"Remember the cold war?" is racism
Flamebait.

What we could have had was the member berries slipping in dark parts of everyone's past, causing them to either hate their childhood or rely on more berries to get a stronger fix.
>>
>>88608166
Then you're probably an idiot who should only argue with tumblr, at least then you'd get your interpretations right.
>>
>>88608370
Well I really don't see what else they were trying to do with them. I didn't watch the whole season all the way through but the four points I got out of them was:

-M&T hate the new Star Wars
-The Member Berries say racist things
-One of them is a Nazi
-Randy was indulging in the Member Berries unhealthily
>>
>>88608434
And so from that you concluded the message was "all nostalgia is racism"?
