Age Lift | |
| South Park: Joining the Panderverse / int_121b3725 | comment |
Age Lift: The South Park Elementary kids aren't just Race Lifted and Gender Flipped like the rest of the Panderverse, they are also randomly turned into twenty-somethings...who are still attending elementary school, in another joke at how silly pandering would be, putting older, Disney-esque teen girl stars as replacements for Elementary School characters. | |

Arbitrary Skepticism | |
| South Park: Joining the Panderverse / int_13eea985 | comment |
Arbitrary Skepticism: Stan, Kenny, and especially Kyle refused to believe in the concept of the multiverse for much of the special, despite all the insane supernatural things that have happened over the years. They also specifically dealt with parallel universe craziness in Spookyfish. Justified in Kyle's case, as it's implied to be a Berserk Button for him since it apparently has to involve his mom and her credit card. | |

Does This Remind You of Anything? | |
| South Park: Joining the Panderverse / int_14ed6ab7 | comment |
Does This Remind You of Anything?: The Panderstone is analogous to A.I. in that it generates all the content that studio executives are too lazy and impatient to trust to human artists, with the products being increasingly cliche and dull since there's no human element to connect with. All it took was one use of the Panderstone to make Kathleen Kennedy addicted to it. | |

Ripped from the Headlines | |
| South Park: Joining the Panderverse / int_1616e13 | comment |
Ripped from the Headlines: One of the handymen buying Instagram mirrors Elon Musk's controversial purchase of Twitter, while another handyman claiming he bought Bloomberg Media is a dig at Jeff Bezos' purchase of The Washington Post (which has often been criticized for calling the independence of the newspaper into question). Musk and Bezos are also running rival space programs. Finally, both handymen challenging each other to a public wrestling match references a similar exchange between Musk and Mark Zuckerberg. Several Hollywood strikes for writers and actors were ongoing during production of the special, both regarding the use of AI technology. This is addressed in the show as Randy being unable to perform basic household chores and no matter how advanced Siri is they can only explain the process but not do it themselves. It turns out many professionals are losing work because of AI tech replacing their market values, including therapists because "there is an app for that." Handymen end up ridiculously wealthy because no one can do the job themselves, and Randy ends up with other people similarly displaced. One sign even says they'll trade screenwriting for home repair. | |

Stealth Pun | |
| South Park: Joining the Panderverse / int_1e7c47ab | comment |
Stealth Pun: A couple crop up. The college that the adults try to destroy with catapulted stones looks like a Lawyer-Friendly Cameo of University of Colorado, Boulder. In other words, they're fighting a Boulder with a boulder. In Universe 216-B, aka "The Panderverse", the City Wok restaurant is named City Woke instead, which seems like a rebranding to make it more diverse, until you remember how the owner pronounces that first word. In other words, it's "Shitty Woke". | |

Ironic Hell | |
| South Park: Joining the Panderverse / int_237569e4 | comment |
Ironic Hell: Eric Cartman is a misogynistic racist who sends thousands of bigoted hate mail to Kathleen Kenedy for making Disney movies for everyone, so it's ironic that the Multiverse decides to send Cartman to the Panderverse, which consists of diverse women, and trap him there, much to Cartman's horror. If Kenny were trapped in an all-female universe, he'd probably be in heaven. | |

Lampshade Hanging | |
| South Park: Joining the Panderverse / int_2a090d00 | comment |
Every time Disney released a movie or tv show Cartman hated, he managed to personally send Kathleen Kennedy ten to thirteen thousand pieces of hate mail, as in physical letters, not spam e-mails sent through an automatic program. When Kennedy finds out she is incredulous at how this is even possible. | |

Distaff Counterpart: There's a whole universe consisting of adult female versions of the boys and everyone in South Park as a whole. Among them includes a black woman as Eric Cartman. There is also another female version of Eric Cartman who invades the main universe and takes Kathleen Kennedy's identity and occupation. | |

Manipulative Bastard | |
| South Park: Joining the Panderverse / int_40c57041 | comment |
Manipulative Bastard: The Panderverse version of Cartman is just as manipulative as the original, and arguably more effective. She successfully gets Kyle's mother to upgrade her internet speed to avoid identity theft, despite the Panderverse version of Cartman being the one who used her credit card. She also convinces the boys to get her a computer presumably to get back to her universe when she just wanted to play Baldur's Gate III. | |

Ambiguous Gender | |
| South Park: Joining the Panderverse / int_4510b368 | comment |
Ambiguous Gender: Every Panderverse character is portrayed as a biological female, but they constantly refer to each other with masculine pronouns and other ambiguous syntax. It's unclear if biological males even exist in said universe. Further muddying the waters, they clearly know what biological males are, as they recognize Cartman as one, the Panderverse version of Cartman isn't freaked by being in their presence, and the Panderverse version of Garrison explains the day's lesson involves the patriarchy. This is lampshaded by Stan, who goes through a multitude of pronouns on how to refer to the Panderverse version of Cartman. | |

Adaptational Attractiveness | |
| South Park: Joining the Panderverse / int_557838d1 | comment |
Adaptational Attractiveness: The Panderverse version of Cartman is an older black woman who is mocked for being fat despite at worse having a slightly curvier figure. This is a joke based on both Hollywood Beauty Standards and how Cartman is heavily defined by being an obnoxious Fat Bastard that doesn't really work when you change things around. Basically all of the Panderverse versions of characters are given this trope to some extent, as they're almost all portrayed as being at worst perfectly attractive women with unique and detailed designs in the place of the original versions' flatter and more copy-paste designs carried over from the earlier seasons. In the Panderverse Kenny is given particular attention, as she doesn't have her face hidden and is arguably the most sexually provocative member of the cast. | |

Many items from Disney films can be seen in the interiors of the Disney headquarters (e.g. Snow White's dress, Cinderella's glass slipper, and a Stormtrooper helmet). While Kathleen is chasing Cartman through the Panderverse!South Park town square, Panderverse versions of characters like Mr. Mackey and Dr. Mephesto can be spotted. | |

Bait-and-Switch: Randy wakes up his two children early in the morning, scolding them for having no practical skills and making it seem like he's going to show them how to fix something... until he pulls out his phone and calls a handyman. The boys (and the audience) are treated to a montage of a gaming computer being installed, and are led to believe that the Panderverse version of Cartman has a solution on how to get things back to normal. After the Internet speed is resolved, the Panderverse version of Cartman finally gets ready... to play Baldur's Gate III. Kyle is furious, and Stan lampshades "Wow. That really is Cartman." | |

Didn't Think This Through: The adults receive a catapult to use against the college... which comes in a box and has to be assembled, forcing them to use the handymen. the Panderverse version of Cartman wants to continue playing Baldur's Gate III, but it doesn't occur to her that she won't be able to play the game from the point she saved it back in her universe and will need to start over from the beginning. | |

Heel Realization: Cartman of all people has one, when he realizes that sending thousands of hate letters to Kathleen Kennedy wasn't contributive and even apologizes to her, saying that whining about "woke" stuff was a waste of time. Kathleen Kennedy also has one, realizing that she responded reactively to hate mail and should instead be focusing on producing decent content. | |

Laborious Laziness: The adults can't be bothered to learn how to fix appliances for themselves...so they offer the handymen lessons in their various college degrees as payment, band together and wait for a giant catapult to be built (by another handyman, no less) in order to destroy UC Boulder for not teaching them basic craftsmanship, and devise a plan to stalk Kathleen Kennedy so they can guess how to fix things across multiple universes. Cartman tries countering what he considers lazy writing by fighting it with even more lazy writing via tens of thousands of hate mail letters to Kathleen Kennedy. | |

Evil Is Not a Toy: Kathleen Kennedy was shown the closely guarded secret to Disney, the Panderstone, which allows them to make things that appeal to everyone. While okay when used sparingly, she started turning to it every time which created diminishing results. Her desperation to get ahead of Cartman's complaints resulted in her switching universes with a multiverse version of herself that resembles Cartman. | |

The Panderverse version of Cartman is an older black woman who is mocked for being fat despite at worse having a slightly curvier figure. This is a joke based on both Hollywood Beauty Standards and how Cartman is heavily defined by being an obnoxious Fat Bastard that doesn't really work when you change things around. | |

Fatal Flaw: Pretty much everyone succumbs to Sloth. The men all let their homes fall into disrepair because they can't be bothered learning how to perform DIY maintenance. Kathleen Kennedy and the rest of Disney Studios would rather recycle their greatest hits, and their attempts to promote diversity come across and ham-fisted and patronizing. Stan, Kyle and Kenny deliberately avoid doing anything related to the plot because of how much Kyle hates the multiverse gimmick. Ironically enough, both Cartmans are actually quite proactive. | |

This is part of the show's satire of Race Lifted characters, in this case demonstrating that Cartman's appearance is integral to his character and changing it for the sake of diversity does not work for the show's humor. | |

Take That! | |
| South Park: Joining the Panderverse / int_b53077b3 | comment |
Take That!: Lots of jabs are targeted at Kathleen Kennedy and Disney for the poor quality and reception of the studio's recent films, particularly the Disney Live-Action Remakes. Bob Iger is also mocked for relying too much on established IPs and remakes instead of original ideas to make the company money. The Panderverse itself (Universe 216-B) is a jab at a trend in movies replacing established white male characters with diverse female characters. The City Wok equivalent being named "City Woke" drives the point home. The Panderverse versions of our characters talking about "fighting against the patriarchy" can be taken as a shot at how some shows, films, comics, graphic novels, and other media focus on sending a message (that is, obnoxiously preaching) for marginalized groups rather than telling a story. The scene of Kyle, Stan, and Kenny getting labeled as racist by PC Principal for their questioning how Cartman changed into a black woman is this towards writers who respond to valid criticism by acting like their work is the exact same as the original and claim critics are just being bigoted (a marketing strategy dubbed "fan baiting"). It helps that they're fans of Miles Morales, who they cite as an example of diversity assisting with the story rather than hindering it. Special mention goes to Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny, which left Cartman sending angry letters to Kennedy, prompting her to use the Panderstone in the first place. Stan, Kenny, and especially Kyle shrug off the multiverse concept used in modern superhero movies as a way to excuse lazy writing. Randy traveling through the space between universes has his clothing randomly changing, with him treating it like a mind-blowing experience, mocking multiverse stories for signifying different universes with superficial changes. Toxic fans are mocked as well by being represented by Cartman, who indirectly started the whole conflict by causing Kennedy to use the Panderstone repeatedly. On the other side, Kathleen Kennedy doubling down in retaliation at the cost of writing quality is this towards writers who overestimate the number of genuinely bigoted fans and alienate the fans who value writing over all else by fixating on the bigots. Fans of Disney/Lucasfilm properties who tend to blame Kathleen Kennedy for everything are mocked in the scene where Randy and the other protesters stupidly blame her for why nobody can do anything anymore, despite her having absolutely nothing to do with the situation and them not even knowing who she is. It also jabs at AI being cited as a reason for the 2023 WGA strike, showcasing its imperfections through Siri, as well as humans' overreliance on AI in general. Society is mocked for fixating so much on college educations and knowledge-based skills that most people have no idea how to perform basic home repairs as a result. The handymen having their own spaceships represents billionaires attempting to travel into space for no other reason than because they can afford to. They also compete to buy up social media platforms on a whim and challenge each other to fistfights when things don't go their way, a very pointed jab at Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg. | |

A Degree in Useless | |
| South Park: Joining the Panderverse / int_b5c47a93 | comment |
Several Hollywood strikes for writers and actors were ongoing during production of the special, both regarding the use of AI technology. This is addressed in the show as Randy being unable to perform basic household chores and no matter how advanced Siri is they can only explain the process but not do it themselves. It turns out many professionals are losing work because of AI tech replacing their market values, including therapists because "there is an app for that." Handymen end up ridiculously wealthy because no one can do the job themselves, and Randy ends up with other people similarly displaced. One sign even says they'll trade screenwriting for home repair. | |

Political Overcorrectness: When Cartman and Kathleen Kennedy actually talk things out it's revealed to have been a vicious circle where minor efforts for diversity and inclusion result in minor complaints, so they double down on diversity and inclusion to stick it to them and the complaints get bigger and louder. This all comes at the expensive of trying to make a quality product. PC Principal not only orders Stan, Kyle and Kenny to accept that Cartman is suddenly a black woman, but also orders them to do whatever she says. | |

Allegorical Character: Kathleen Kennedy is used as a representative for all of Disney and pretty much Hollywood in general (since that's how people treat her), the amount of control she has over the company being ridiculously exaggerated (Bob Iger, who also appears in this episode, is actually in charge at Disney, Kennedy only manages the Lucasfilm properties) and Cartman represents all obnoxious fans who do nothing but complain about the things they allegedly love and insist that "wokeness is ruining movies", he was said to have been single-handedly responsible for every piece of hate mail Kennedy received. The Big Bad was a fusion of the two to demonstrate the bitter cycle of doubling down the two create. | |

Both Sides Have a Point | |
| South Park: Joining the Panderverse / int_c02f148d | comment |
Both Sides Have a Point: The special's two central characters: Eric Cartman and Kathleen Kennedy, are both portrayed as very flawed and going about the wrong way to deliver/deal with criticism. Cartman mostly wrote out of hateful bigotry with very little constructive criticism. Meanwhile Kennedy responded impulsively to Cartman's hate mail instead of ignoring it and ends up taking the easy solution of using the Panderstone. After an argument between the two, they eventually concede that, despite their errors, both of them had a point. Cartman, after learning that his actions only worsened things, admits that it was wrong and lazy of him to deliver purely vitriolic and hateful feedback rather than any helpful criticism. Kennedy learns that progress should be fought the hard way without shortcuts and that work's quality and writing should not suffer for the sake of inclusion and diversity. By the episode's end, the two are on friendly terms. | |

Insane Troll Logic: PC Principal's response to Cartman being replaced with his older, Black, female counterpart is to just accept it as a natural part of life, as if Cartman had changed by losing weight. He even turns the Boys' bafflement at the situation as sign they are bigoted and threatens them with three weeks detention if they don't help her out. Naturally, the Panderverse version of Cartman takes full advantage of the situation just like her male counterpart would. | |

Shout-Out | |
| South Park: Joining the Panderverse / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: The title card is a send-up to Disney's 1985-2006 Vanity Plate. Stan and Kyle cite Miles Morales as an example of where a Race Lift character works because the character has their own personality and narrative instead of just being the original beloved character with a different appearance. There's quite a few references to Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, such as the Cartmans being able to see into each other's dimensions via dreams. The Panderverse version of Kenny resembles Go Go Tomago. | |

Self-Deprecation: The Panderverse version of Cartman is voiced by Janeshia Adams-Ginyard, who is known for her work with Disney. Trey and Matt both went to UC Boulder, which the college in-universe is modeled after. It's ridiculed by Randy (and the other adults) in a smorgasbord of dry insults, with one of them being about how they're all still paying off student loans, possibly alluding to how "shitty" the creators think they themselves should feel after already having enough money to have done so. | |

Series Continuity Error | |
| South Park: Joining the Panderverse / int_ca95473c | comment |
Series Continuity Error: Randy has been shown doing plenty of basic and complex home repairs before. One episode he even had a home renovation show "White People Flipping Houses." That is, if one assumes he's genuinely clueless and didn't just become incredibly lazy. | |

Beyond the Impossible | |
| South Park: Joining the Panderverse / int_cc6f4612 | comment |
Beyond the Impossible: Kennedy sends her linguini and clams back to the kitchen, telling the waiter she wants the chef to add "A chick and make her gay" to the dish. The waiter is unsure how this can be done, but takes the plate regardless. One can only imagine how this was resolved. Every time Disney released a movie or tv show Cartman hated, he managed to personally send Kathleen Kennedy ten to thirteen thousand pieces of hate mail, as in physical letters, not spam e-mails sent through an automatic program. When Kennedy finds out she is incredulous at how this is even possible. | |

Cassandra Truth | |

Cassandra Truth: Nobody believes the Panderverse Cartman when she tells Stan, Kyle, and Kenny that she's Cartman. Ditto for our Cartman when he tries telling the Panderverse Stan, Kyle, and Kenny that he comes from another dimension. Stan is finally convinced after she uses Kyle's mom's credit card to obtain a gaming computer to play Baldur's Gate III. | |

Girls with Moustaches: Yates' Panderverse counterpart still has his mustache. The KFC logo in the Panderverse also depicts the female Colonel with his trademark goatee. | |

Race Lift | |
| South Park: Joining the Panderverse / int_d7c3ba61 | comment |
Race Lift: Spoofed; every single white character in the Panderverse has a different ethnicity (e.g. Stan is Hispanic, Kyle is Indian, Cartman is African-American, and Kenny is Asian). The sole exception is Liane in Cartman's dream in the opening, and even then it's unknown if she's still white in the actual Panderverse. | |

| South Park: Joining the Panderverse / int_dd6ce5db | comment |
Artistic License: Stan tells the Panderverse version of Cartman she shouldn't be surprised Baldur's Gate III saves don't transfer between dimensions, because they don't transfer between PC and PS5. This is incorrect and developer Larian Studios tweeted a tongue-in-cheek clarification. | |

Composite Character | |
| South Park: Joining the Panderverse / int_e4965307 | comment |
Composite Character: The Big Bad combines all the aspects of Kathleen Kennedy and Eric Cartman, having the former's gender, hair, and obsession with works pandering to everyone at the cost of their quality and originality, while having the latter's short obese stature and volatile personality. | |

Parental Hypocrisy | |
| South Park: Joining the Panderverse / int_ede89ad6 | comment |
Parental Hypocrisy: Randy wakes up Stan and Shelley early, telling them their generation is lazy and doesn't know how to fix anything, so he's going to show them how to fix the broken door on his oven. He turns out to be just as useless as they are when he immediately calls a handyman. It's not a lack of knowledge, he's just too lazy to do it. He easily finds some DIY instructions online, but he grumbles that somebody else isn't there to do it for him. | |

You Bastard! | |
| South Park: Joining the Panderverse / int_f642b1f9 | comment |
Trey and Matt both went to UC Boulder, which the college in-universe is modeled after. It's ridiculed by Randy (and the other adults) in a smorgasbord of dry insults, with one of them being about how they're all still paying off student loans, possibly alluding to how "shitty" the creators think they themselves should feel after already having enough money to have done so. | |

Running Gag | |
| South Park: Joining the Panderverse / int_f9f2c33 | comment |
Running Gag: Kennedy constantly ordering a "chick" be added to every movie and making her gay (and occasionally adding "and fucking lame!"). This extends to a remake of Bambi and she even demands it in her food. Sharon noting the oven door is still broken to Randy, and Randy telling her he's working on it in an increasingly annoyed tone. The Panderverse version of Kenny talking about how Tammy Mullin has great knockers. Almost everything Randy tries to do requires calling a handyman to actually get things done. | |

Well-Intentioned Extremist | |
| South Park: Joining the Panderverse / int_fd4f8299 | comment |
Well-Intentioned Extremist: Kathleen Kennedy is ultimately shown to be a well-meaning producer who initially wanted to make good films while also increasing the diversity of the characters in order to give representation to minorities. Then when she started getting hate mail from bigoted fans (later revealed to somehow be Cartman entirely), her anger caused her to double down on her diversity efforts without any care as to how they affected the final products. | |

All Gays are Promiscuous: All the Panderverse version of Kenny talks about is how great Tammy Mullin's breasts are, saying they "hypnotized" her into warning Tammy about being farted on twice. | |
