Did anyone notice it appears they went with Saddam’s voice for the Trump character? I disagree with that choice and should have done a trump voice.
ending was f***ing bizarre. it was a VERY real looking AI video of a naked trump stumbling through the desert. whats good for the goose is good for the gander. if trump is going to share AI videos of his "enemies" having bad things done to them then its fair play to do what SP did. this episode was a shot across the bow and i think it was directed at paramount as much as it was trump. LOL that they just gave matt and trey a $1.5 BILLION contract.
Many are surmising that the PSA is a clip from Stone and Parker's 14 minute short that was shelved due to the pandemic. It was to be called "Deep Fake: The Movie". Its premise as per Parker....“It was about this guy who looked exactly like Trump because we deep fake Trump’s face onto him. And it was this whole funny thing because, of course, it ends up with Trump just naked and getting run through the wringer and everything, and that’s why it was so funny and so timely.” Link: ‘South Park’ Creators Developed an Entire Deepfake Donald Trump Movie That Never Got Made: ‘It’s Sort of On Hold’
Loved Cartman complaining about NPR being shut down because it was the funniest thing on the air to him
What I loved is how they flipped the extremist characters. Cartman, who has always been the bigot, is crying about woke. PC Principle is now the evangelical. Trump, who has no boundaries, fully exposed on TV.
It wasn't the most creative or funny episode in SP history, but I think it was absolutely the balliest and most shocking one. They basically spit in the face of their new boss and humiliated the sitting US President (whom to this point has been all but impossible to shame) all in one go. I know this is going to sound like hyperbole, but given what just went down with Trump, the FCC, and Paramount/Skydance, I feel like we may have just witnessed a very, very important moment in American political history.
