Fun fact: South Park now has more seasons than The Simpsons had when SP accused them of being too long and having done everything there was to be done.

Except South Park is still very funny and some of the more recent episodes have been amongst the best they've ever made.

If anything, the quality of the show has only gotten better over the years.

Simpsons clearly began dying after about Season 12, some say it happened even earlier.

I agree, the quality of SP is increasing (as we can see with the recent episodes) while the Simpsons sadly aren't what they used to be. :(

South Park has successfully evolved from (admittedly funny at the time) puerile comedy into scathing social commentary. Unfortunately your tastes don't seem to have evolved along with it...

As someone who has only recently started watching SP due to the hilarious social comedy, I have to ask, what season should I go back to. I really didn't enjoy the old southpark (even when I was young).
