If you haven't watched Season 19 (which includes the serial saga with P.C. Principal mentioned in the article) I'd highly recommend it. It really embodies South Park's unique ability to be simultaneously mature and immature. And its ability to be hilariously relevant after all these years while delivering thoughtful social commentary.

I watched plenty of South Park when it came out, but hadn't watched it in many many years. I checked out Season 19 after I saw it mentioned as one of the best South Park seasons yet--and I have to agree. Most seasons have a few brilliant episodes and many average ones. Season 19 is great throughout--its foray into serialization means more thorough criticism of big topics and is able to weave several issues together over the course of the season that would seem forced within a single episode.
