Last season Try and Matt tore into politically correct frat boys (woo woo!) and gentrification which ended in typical South Park style, with the town’s moronic citizens destroying the Whole Foods.
No doubt the cheeky lads will also be taking a pop at the farce that is the American presidential election, so Burnie, Hilary and of course the brash Donald Trump could all make an appearance.
The recent trolling of the Ghostbusters girls and the rise of the Internet troll appears to be another topic that season 20 will address in the show’s usual controversial style.
Surprisingly the show will also address the recent wave of nostalgia sweeping the U.S. and western world, demonstrating the ways that nostalgia can be poisonous as people move from ‘remember Star Wars?’ to ‘remember no Mexican’.
No matter what topics South Park covers we can always rely on the show to be a wonderful combination of offensive and hilarious!
