You dont have to agree with everything they do, but Southpark is the only show that are not afraid to discuss certains subjects. Dead Children should be mandatory to watch for every us citizens.
EDIT: In view of the many responses to this post, i'd like to add that if you really think south park is a right-wing show, you're showing your interchangeability. By that I mean that I firmly believe that people who are incapable of discussion and questioning their ideas are similar, no matter what side they're on. I'm convinced that if you'd been born in Texas into a conservative family, you'd be parading around in a pickup truck against drag queens in schools right now. It's simply a question of life context that makes you here now.
They have funny episodes and moments, but outside of shock value I find it mostly annoying. These guys cover the most recent topics and try to come up with some centrist take within a week. I don’t know if they’re still doing the overarching storyline for each season, but at least when I watched it it was rather stale and ignorant
The funny episodes are the ones about how ridiculous kids can be and aren't political, like the superhero one, or the Lord of the Rings one, or the one where they play with weapons.
I think Trey and Matt realize it too, because all of the recent South Park games are about those, and they actually need to sell those games.
