If this was already a thread, take it down. But this has already been confirmed. According to several news outlets, Trey Parker and Matt Stone aren't making any new South Park episodes until September. And to add to that, they're only making 10 straight instead of the usual 14 (seven in the spring and seven in the fall).
Apparently, they want to spend the rest of the year doing other things so they'll be completely focused for 10 grueling weeks.
It's kind of sad since I became an SP fan only two years ago, but I could understand them not making the show a priority anymore. The Book of Mormon is doing extremely well and they've been doing the same thing for 15 years now, so if they want to do this, they can.
But there might be a bigger problem here. Parker and Stone might see South Park as a burden now. It isn't as popular as it was nine years ago, and if anyone has ever seen that documentary, you know they literally go through Hell just to make one episode. So what do you think about all this? Is this the right decision? And do you think South Park is becoming a burden for Trey and Matt?

they need to go back and take their time on the episodes.. not every episode have to mock current events like the past few seasons were.
if they woudl take their time and not bust their ass to make an episode in like 7 days,... they would not be so stressed.

I haven't watched South Park in a while. I thought the Honey Boo Boo episode was hysterical

You can only make sh** jokes so many times before it grows tiresome. For me that was a few years back. That's my trouble with South Park.

Unless they get canceled they will be going until the end 2016 and I'm completely okay with it.

I'd rather they make 10 than none at all.

The problem with South Park IS that they only take a week to make an episode, which means they're always up to date with whats new in the world/pop culture. When someone rewatches those episodes in 5 or so years, they're gonna suck because they're mostly funny because it's relevant when it's new.
First few seasons, still hilarious to this day......nowadays....well I stopped 2 seasons ago

I never have been a south park fan. I'm honestly surprised it's still going.

I haven't watched the show in a few years. It stopped being funny and turned into a show to mock whatever is popular at the moment
