The animated series is not for children. In fact, its goal seems to be to offend as many as possible as it presents the adventures of Stan, Kyle, Kenny and Cartman. The show has taken on Saddam Hussein, Osama bin Laden, politicians of every stripe and self-important celebrities. Oh, and Kenny is killed in many episodes.

David Manuel R Don't know why but i think Season 1 is better Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 04/24/25 Full Review Audience Member This is one of the best seasons in South Park. There is a huge number of amazing seasons - their quality has increased significantly compared to the first season. Although the authors left a few weak episodes. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 04/12/25 Full Review sebastian s just as funny and fun as season 1 Rated 5 out of 5 stars 11/01/24 Full Review Mihailo M The characters are unbearable to watch. The things they do are not funny but sad. The cartoon is not funny. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 11/01/24 Full Review Gabriel M As fine as it's previous season with definitely unique episodes and overall atmosphere. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 03/09/24 Full Review Sean M Just like the first season, South Park Season 2 is consistent with making meh episodes with the one or two hilarious moments. What makes this season good is how no episode is necessarily a bad one, but episodes like "Conjoined Fetus Lady" although having great and well thought out messages are just boring, while episodes like "Cow Days" do keep you intrigued and laughing but still don't serve as comedy gold. the show did alright with making some episodes rated MA instead of its usual TV-14 but it doesn't do anything with its Mature rating other than sprinkling an F bomb or two here and there. Although South Park Season 2 is more or less the first season but a bit less funny, it shows that the show is still trying to find its footing on what it wants to be to make sure everything goes uphill instead of more and more downhill.
