Reception
The season was too short, according to Screen Rant “Season 25 of South Park took a long time to get rolling. Some of the earlier episodes, like ‘Pajama Day,’ felt like they were just going through the motions with their COVID-related satire, and by the time the season finally got going with a pair of Butters-centric episodes touching on cancel culture and the Russian invasion of Ukraine, it was already over.

South Park’s latest season, sadly, didn’t tell a complete and fulfilling story without more episodes to properly develop and marinate character-specific plot threads and the amazing current events satire that came with them.” [16]
