The sixteenth season of the adult-orientated animated comedy South Park is now available on DVD. After so many years, some may think that the show would be out of ideas or that its long-running blend of mature (or immature, if you prefer) humour would be stale; but the 2012 series proves otherwise and, based on the episodes here, actually ranks as one of the show’s strongest seasons to date.
The first disc begins with Reverse Cowgirl, which looks at toilet humour (a criticism of the show in its earliest years) from another angle whilst also lampooning increased and at times unnecessarily high security of certain places. The highlights here are a ridiculous yet hilarious scene involving Gerald Broslovski (Kyle’s dad) and a strange belief by Butters being proven to be true. Cash For Gold is a little less funny, but it’s hard not to laugh at Marvin Marsh (Stan’s grandad) heavily criticising a studded bolo that he bought him, and arguably the series’ daftest yet insanely funny background song yet. Faith Hilling, whilst not the strongest episode of the season, has its moments and perfectly sends up the concept of how Internet memes grow in popularity only to suddenly fade away.
