Anti-Humor | |
| South Park: Post Covid / int_1881fc5c | comment |
Anti-Humor: Jimmy has become a late-night show host and his humor is almost exclusively set ups that sound like it could be very offensive but the punchline is a swerve to be so inoffensive it's hardly a joke, but that's part of the meta-joke. "A Priest, a Rabbi and a Muslim walk into a bar... and they all get along because they are really nice people." | |

Never Trust a Trailer | |
| South Park: Post Covid / int_19ebe383 | comment |
Never Trust a Trailer: While not as much as the previous Covid specials, there wasn't much shown in previews to tempt people to sign up for Paramount+, and there were a couple differences from what was shown in trailers and the final product. When Kyle calls Stan in the first trailer, he is shown working as the new school counselor. In the special, he calls Stan from Gerald's old study and it's said he works at an online counseling startup, not at the elementary school. Randy telling Stan that it's not a "special" but an "exclusive event" was shown in the retirement home in the second trailer, but in the special it's in the ruined barn at the farm. | |

Ambiguous Situation | |
| South Park: Post Covid / int_1f6983f7 | comment |
Ambiguous Situation: The show makes it ambiguous as to whether Cartman's conversion to Judaism (including becoming a rabbi, marrying a Jewish woman, and having Jewish kids) is genuine or it's all part of a long term plan of his to get under Kyle's skin. Kyle is certain it's the latter, but Cartman's actions at the end of the episode suggest it's the former. It's unknown what happened with Kenny when he briefly disappeared on the time machine, whether he went back in time or just poofed for a second. | |

Crapsack World | |
| South Park: Post Covid / int_21d70919 | comment |
Crapsack World: The universe that South Park takes place in was already pretty crappy to begin with, but things still managed to get a lot worse, anyways. In what seems to be a parody of a liberal American's ideal version of the future, China has taken the USA's spot as the world superpower, people are forced to eat bugs in lieu of meat, criminals can do whatever they want because there's no local police force, COVID is still a problem forty years later, and so much more. | |

| South Park: Post Covid / int_25bc8511 | comment |
Generation Xerox: Cartman's son looks and speaks exactly as Cartman did as a child. All of his kids also develop a hatred for Kyle like their father did as a youth. Stan acts exactly like Randy: selfish, a scapegoater, and a functioning alcoholic who denies he has a problem and makes excuses when confronted on it. He even uses a variation of Randy's "It's called [X] and it's classy!" line. The now-grown up kids are just as quick to overreact during a crisis as their parents have been throughout the series. | |

Heel–Faith Turn: Cartman, possibly. In the past forty years he converted to Judaism, becoming a rabbi in the process, is Happily Married with three kids, and seems to be trying to make amends with Kyle. However, Kyle is unconvinced and thinks this is yet another of Cartman's pranks designed to humiliate him. | |

Older Than They Look | |
| South Park: Post Covid / int_2f36d97 | comment |
Older Than They Look: Token is pushing 50 years old just like the other fourth graders, but he looks significantly younger than the others due to the fact he still has a full head of hair with no greys, no visible wrinkles, and is still in good shape. Like Token, Kyle is also pushing 50, but looks like he's only in his thirties. Strong Woman, Bebe, and Nicole show few signs of aging, unlike everyone else. It's especially notorious in Strong Woman's case, as aside from a few wrinkles she looks exactly the same as she did 40 years prior (Though it's also been speculated that it might be one of the female PC Babies fully grown up). | |

Properly Paranoid: At the end of the special, Cartman turns against Stan and Kyle, planning to prevent them from changing the future, implicitly because if the future is changed, he'll lose his wife and kids (and may even lose his Karma Houdini status). By the end of the next special, it turns out he had every reason to worry, the future is successfully changed, and Cartman ends up worse off than he could have ever imagined. | |

Sudden Sequel Death Syndrome | |
| South Park: Post Covid / int_4cb7f0d8 | comment |
Sudden Sequel Death Syndrome: Sharon and Shelly died at some point during the 40 year timeskip, with Shelly accidentally burning to death when Stan decided to torch Tegridy Farms, and Sharon committing suicide in a fit of despair caused by Shelly's death. Kenny died shortly before the special, and his death is what kickstarts the plot. While Kenny dying is nothing unusual, this is one of the few times where his death is taken seriously by his friends and the first time in 20 years that his death sticks. Makes sense, as his post-menopausal mother probably can't give birth to him again. | |

| South Park: Post Covid / int_4db42cf3 | comment |
Male Frontal Nudity: The fact that this is a Paramount+ exclusive means that everything is uncensored. As such, a middle-aged Kenny's uncensored and pretty huge penis is on display as his nude corpse is exposed in a morgue. Strangely subverted in a scene where Kyle is using the bathroom, and there's a shadow effect on his exposed crotch, followed by a split-second shot of his conspicuously genital-free area as he goes to pull his pants up. Guess the uncensored effect only happens for shock value. | |

"In the event of Dr. McCormick's death, he wants everyone to know the group that is responsible for the way things are. It is, quote, 'My three dickhead friends: Stan, Kyle, and Cartman.'" "Wait! Dr. McCormick, you forgot your chin diaper!" To put into context, there was no cover-up about how Kenny really died. When he returned to his time he coughed briefly, revealing that he did in fact die of the COVID Delta Plus Rewards Program variant. | |

Then during an argument with her in the car, Stan shouts, "Alexa, stop!" and she fades away, revealing herself to be an advanced Amazon Alexa smart device and reinforcing that Stan truly has nobody in his life. Throughout the special, characters try to get in contact with Kenny's former assistant, Victor "Chouce," who's in a mental asylum. At the end of the episode, we see Victor's nameplate in front of his cell... and it actually reads Victor Chaos, heavily implying that this is Professor Chaos — Butters — all grown up. | |

Karma Houdini Warranty | |
| South Park: Post Covid / int_599f943f | comment |
Karma Houdini Warranty: Randy Marsh was a Karma Houdini for the past several seasons by being a neglectful father, blowing up multiple personal marijuana gardens to maintain his monopoly on weed (which kills several people), killing Winnie the Pooh, and spreading COVID after having sex with a pangolin. But sometime after that, Stan burned down Tegridy farms, destroying Randy's dreams, and Randy was locked up in a miserable nursing home for decades. This is what Cartman fears will happen if Stan and Kyle succeed in changing the future, which leads to his motivation to stopping them. Cartman's fears are proved correct in the next special where he looses his Karma Houdini status mentioned above. Though they aren't shown or mentioned in the episode, Sergeant Harrison Yates and his crew seem to have finally received their comeuppance when they get defunded for their constant abuse of power. The only problem is nothing seems to have replaced them and now criminals can just murder people in the streets with zero repercussions. | |

Future Loser: Stan is a lonely alcoholic trapped in an awful faux-marriage with an Alexa hologram and has the same nasty disposition as Randy. His first love Wendy meanwhile has married a rich man that looks similar to Gregory from Bigger, Longer & Uncut. The Goth kids aged quite poorly, no doubt due to a childhood fuelled by caffeine and tobacco. | |

A very obvious one towards the movement to defund police (started by Black Lives Matter, a movement Trey and Matt have bashed in the past) is the scene where Stan drives by South Park's police station, shown to be destitute and in desperate need of new hires. Right after that, Stan watches a man fatally shoot a woman and get away with it in broad daylight, with Stan looking in disgust. | |

Ship Sinking | |
| South Park: Post Covid / int_67fe4b8e | comment |
Ship Sinking: After years of on-again-off-again teasing, it's clear that Stan and Wendy are not a couple as adults, as Wendy has a husband and Stan hasn't lived in South Park for years. That said, they are still on good terms with each other, as Wendy is excited to see Stan again after so many years and Stan is polite to Wendy and doesn't seem to mind her husband Darwin. | |

Set Right What Once Went Wrong: It’s revealed that prior to his death, Kenny was developing a means of time travel in order to prevent the COVID-19 pandemic from ever occurring. At the end of the special, Stan and Kyle decide to finish Kenny’s work and fix the future. However, Cartman, now married with three children, fears that he will lose his happy life if they succeed and vows to prevent them from changing the future. | |

Never My Fault: Stan and Randy go back and forth about whose fault it was for the loss of Sharon and Shelly. Randy tries to pin blame on China for COVID-19, even though he was the one who originally raped a pangolin (with some pushing from Mickey Mouse). Stan, Kyle, and Cartman all refuse to take responsibility for their friendship ending during the pandemic. Eventually, they find a video where Kenny calls them all out on this and tells them it was all of their faults. | |

Continuity Nod: When Kyle tells Yentl on why he doesn't trust Cartman, he mentions to her that Cartman gave him AIDS. Randy mentions to Stan about the unfortunate events that occurred during Stan's childhood such as the 2016 presidential electionnote As usual, it's ambiguously worded so viewers, depending on how much they are aware of the events of prior episodes, would likely assume Randy was referring to Donald Trump instead of Mr. Garrison and eventually confessing to having sex with a pangolin which started the pandemic. | |

Take That! | |
| South Park: Post Covid / int_b53077b3 | comment |
Take That!: The pandemic lasted for decades because the media broadcast that the (initial) end was in sight, without warning audiences to stick the landing until they'd actually reached it. The end result was everyone dropping all precautions, giving the virus an abundance of chances to mutate and dooming humanity once again. Jimmy complaining about what jokes he can and can't tell is an obvious potshot at one note "politically correct" comedians and networks too afraid of being condemned for telling what could be considered "offensive" jokes, primarily Jimmy Kimmel, whose show is used as a model for Jimmy's show.note Ironically, Matt and Trey have appeared on Kimmel's show in the past, and Kimmel's younger brother Jonathan has worked on South Park. To a lot of the proposed solutions for current problems, like getting rid of meat and using insects as a protein substitute. It’s clear everyone is miserable in the future after these "solutions" are implemented. One of the new future developments is a reliance on cryptocurrency. This gets mocked, as the cashier sarcastically notes that people would rather trust a "Ponzi scheme" than traditional banking. A very obvious one towards the movement to defund police (started by Black Lives Matter, a movement Trey and Matt have bashed in the past) is the scene where Stan drives by South Park's police station, shown to be destitute and in desperate need of new hires. Right after that, Stan watches a man fatally shoot a woman and get away with it in broad daylight, with Stan looking in disgust. Anti-Vaxxer mentality is described as "shellfishness". Randy cites Space Jam: A New Legacy as the final straw that caused America to lose its 'tegridy. | |

Political Overcorrectness | |
| South Park: Post Covid / int_b6db5695 | comment |
Political Overcorrectness: A running theme in the future is that society makes more efforts towards diversity and togetherness, sometimes to aggressive extents. For example, Jimmy can't tell any jokes on his late-night show that could possibly offend audiences, restaurants don't sell meat and community resources are expended trying to keep the elderly from dying. The sheer ridiculousness of COVID restrictions, to the point where a town becomes quarantined just because one person isn't vaccinated and the elderly aren't allowed to go outside so they don't risk becoming sick, as any of them dying for any reason would cause the entire country to go into lockdown. The military aren't even permitted to identify who that one person is because they can't single someone out for their beliefs. PC Principal is back and has undergone a Character Check, threatening anyone who uses gender-specific language or casts someone in a movie who doesn't share their character's background. | |

It's All About Me | |
| South Park: Post Covid / int_bb18a227 | comment |
It's All About Me: Unfortunately, Stan becomes this in the future as he always prioritizes himself and his need to drink rather than helping others during the crisis. Clyde refuses to get vaccinated even though the whole town is under quarantine because of him. Even after everything that has happened, Randy still cares more about his marijuana farm than his family. Kyle shows shades of this with Cartman, unable to accept the possibility that Cartman has really moved on from his past life and their rivalry, and insisting Cartman's entire adult life as rabbi and family man is an elaborate set-up to humiliate him, personally. Though given this is Eric Cartman, it’s not out of the realm of possibility that it is. By the end, Cartman is willing to prevent Stan and Kyle from going to the past to stop COVID, save Kenny, and create a better future, just so that he won't lose his happy life. | |

Happily Married | |
| South Park: Post Covid / int_bec0417c | comment |
Happily Married: Wendy is shown to be married to a man named Darwin and seems very happy with him. Likewise, Cartman has also married a Jewish woman named Yentl and is shown to be very happy with her, to the point where they have loud sex while staying in Kyle's house. Tweek and Craig are also implied to be a loving and functional married couple. | |

Irony | |
| South Park: Post Covid / int_c335b9ec | comment |
Irony: Doctors claimed Kenny died from a new variant of COVID, but since Kenny showed symptoms after he came back from the past, chances are he actually died from the original SARS-CoV-2 strain and not some new variant. Eric Cartman, the racist, sexist, sociopathic, anti-semitic nine-year-old has somehow grown up as the most well-adjusted adult who converted to Orthodox Judaism with a very happy marriage, loving kids and has the title of Rabbi. Kyle seems successful but lives alone, and his obsession with Cartman pulling a elaborate prank on him is implied to be somewhat motivated by jealousy. Stan is the worst of all, existing as a bitter alcoholic who moved away from South Park — even his Alexa AI can't stand him at this point (either that or Stan himself programmed her to be like that). Tolkien ends up joining law enforcement as a detective, despite (or maybe because of) all the times he was unfairly targeted by Park County Police as a kid just for being black. | |

Insane Troll Logic | |
| South Park: Post Covid / int_c5f0119c | comment |
Insane Troll Logic: When everyone learns Clyde isn't vaccinated, he tells them that he wants to have more research on the effects before he gets it. Craig points out they've had 40 years' worth of data and research on the vaccines at this point. Another reason Clyde doesn't want to get the vaccine is because he's allergic to shellfish, and some people who handle the vaccine might have eaten shellfish, contaminating it with "shellfishness". | |

Cliffhanger: Stan and Kyle vow to get back in touch with their childhood beliefs and continue Kenny's work on time travel, even resuming their attempt to contact Victor Chaos, Kenny's right-hand man and sole surviving member of his research team. Meanwhile, Rabbi Cartman is happy with his future as is and doesn't want Kyle to change the past, and Randy protects what he believes to be the last remaining marijuana sprout in Tegridy Farms. Finally, the audience sees for the first time how Victor Chaos's name is spelled, thus implying that he's actually Butters. | |

Ridiculously Successful Future Self: Kenny has gone from an unlucky kid living in extreme poverty to a millionaire scientist and philanthropist who spends his days fraternizing with bigwigs and attractive women. Jimmy grew up to become a wildly popular comedian and late night Talk Show host. Downplayed with Cartman, who is a rabbi and a family man, but it still appears to be quite a step up from his life as a child psycho. Not to mention he's a lot better off than Stan, and while Kyle seems to be doing rather well, he's single, unlike Cartman who is married. | |

Cyberpunk | |

Cyberpunk: While it's more humorous and has a brighter looking aesthetic than most examples, it still could be considered this. It takes place in a Bad Future where advance technology has dominated every aspect of life, crime rates have skyrocketed due to lack of law enforcement, and COVID is still running rampant throughout. The retirement home even makes a giant reference to Blade Runner, one of the Trope Makers of cyberpunk. | |

Accidental Murder: It's revealed that shortly after the pandemic ended, Sharon told Randy she wanted to divorce him, which caused constant arguing since it would mean each would get half of Tegridy Farms and Randy refused to give Sharon her half. Stan, tired of their constant yelling, burned down the entire farm to make his parents stop arguing, but he didn't realize Shelly had been locked up in a barn by Randy for not doing her chores and accidentally killed her. The grief of Shelly's death caused Sharon to shoot herself. | |

Kyle shows shades of this with Cartman, unable to accept the possibility that Cartman has really moved on from his past life and their rivalry, and insisting Cartman's entire adult life as rabbi and family man is an elaborate set-up to humiliate him, personally. Though given this is Eric Cartman, it’s not out of the realm of possibility that it is. | |

Unbeknownst to him, Randy locked Shelly in the nearby barn when she didn't want to do her weed chores. So when the fire burnt the farm, Shelly burnt with it. To make things worse, Sharon was so devastated by the death of her daughter she killed herself by shooting herself in the head. Stan and Randy blamed each other for their family falling apart and were left miserable as a result. | |
