So, when was the last time we ever saw Satan on this show? Great episode talking about those Fee to Pay games like Simpsons Tapped Out or Family Guy: The Quest for Stuff.

Satan last appeared in the season 10 episode "Hell on Earth 2006," I believe.

Man, this season is on fire. I seriously believe that it's close to being on par with the seasons of the show from its prime years.

It was great to see Satan again after so many years, and for that matter, it was nice to see Stan's grandpa again, who hasn't been absent for as long, but who we don't see very often, all the same.

And fuck yes, I'm so glad that they targeted the mobile gaming market for the stupid as fuck scam that it is. I'm so sick of people raving about that shit all of the time, and the idea of micro-transactions is despicable (and sadly has been plaguing console and PC games as well). Fuck that shit!

Anyways, there were a ton of laugh out loud episodes in this episode. If the rest of the season is still around this level of quality, then I'm totally writing a feature on it.

That freaking alcohol commercial had me laughing so hard. It's right on the ball.

Dr. Ensatsu-ken

Yeah, I couldn't control myself with that one. It's one of the best parodies that I've seen this season, and that's saying A LOT. :D

LumRanmaYasha

Man, yesterday's episode was weird, but I enjoyed it a lot. This season continues it's solid streak!

Daxdiv

It was funny even though I have no idea what they were parodying. I mean, I know what Occulus Rift Is this, but I don't know what the story line was based around. Is this their seasonal episode where they do a movie parody or something.

While not as strong as the rest of the episodes this season, I still really enjoyed this one. At the very least I'm glad that it didn't stick with the predictable story-route from the set-up. The whole Cartman tricking Butters into believing a lie that he made up just for him has already been done perfectly with the episode Casa Bonita, so there was no need to do it here. At least with this episode we got a lot of "WTF" twists that certainly kept it feeling entertaining.

LumRanmaYasha

Oh man, yesterday's episode. I was howling with laughter in those last 5 minutes. Easily the hardest I laughed at a SP episode this season. Probably the strongest episode in this season yet, which says a lot, considering just how good the previous ones were.

Dr. Ensatsu-ken

While I wouldn't personally say that it's the strongest, I did quite enjoy it, myself.

That ending nearly had me in tears.

I thought it was boring until Randy was doing the birthday party, and Wendy was revealed to be on the volleyball team after Stan just dissed it in front of the whole class. At that point the whole thing was just a riot and wouldn't stop.

While I am withholding judgement to see in what context they're using Pewdiepie in tonight's episode, I really wish we would stop giving the fucker attention.

I'll give Pewdiepie at least some credit for all of his charity services that he apparently participates in, but I'll never understand why the hell he's actually popular. His personality is incredibly annoying and his content is barely amateur, at best.

There is this popular video explaining why he's so successful, but it still doesn't make sense to me.

Daxdiv

Looks like we're getting a 2 parter. Well, we only have 1 episode left.

So, I guess Pews influence in this episode was just using clips of him and being an inspiration for Cartman's online persona. Still interesting in seeing how everything from the past episodes this season is building up to a big event for a SP season finale.

Dr. Ensatsu-ken

I loved the season finale. It got so full on into "WTF am I even watching?" trrritory that it just felt so right for South Park, and especially this season, which as it stands is arguably the best season of the show that I've seen in a long time. I also love how literally every single pr virus episode of the seeason was referenced in this finale.

Later on, if I get the time, I'll try to individually rate each episode from this season.
