The highly-anticipated 20th season of South Park kicked off Wednesday with an episode that revolved around presidential candidates Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump, whom the Comedy Central show branded “Turd Sandwich” and “Giant Douche,” respectively.
In addition to presidential politics, the new episode tackled Hollywood’s obsession with reboots, bullying in schools, Black Lives Matter, and embattled San Fransisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick’s decision to take a knee during “The Star-Spangled Banner” before NFL games in protest of police brutality.
South Park’s take on the latter involves the recruitment of Star Wars: The Force Awakens director J.J. Abrams to “reboot” the National Anthem: “He saved Star Wars; now we will ask him to save our country.”
The episode kicks off as the town of South Park gathers to watch a fourth grade girls’ volleyball game; but instead of speculating about the action of the actual game, all the crowd and announcers want to do is predict who will stand or sit during the National Anthem, including Randy Marsh, who has a $100 bet on one of the players sitting down.
When the Anthem concludes, everyone files out of the arena.
Meanwhile, Mr. Garrison — an avatar for Donald Trump — quickly realizes that he and his running mate Caitlyn Jenner’s chances to win the U.S. presidency are becoming more likely, especially after seeing the results of a new Gallup poll between he and his opponent Hillary Clinton, aka Turd Sandwich.
(snip)...Everyone waits breathlessly to see what lyrics the new anthem will include; but in a funny twist, Abrams simply adds a line at the beginning of the song urging people to “please stand… or sit, or kneel” to honor America, thereby nullifying the dissenters’ protests.
