I think the problem with PC Principal is that you only have that much you can do with him. He is a one sided one note character, although they did an amazing job with him thus far. I also think the introduction of Strong Woman and they children gave this one note character more character, personality, character development and I love the interactions between PC Principal and his family.

[@M._.aggie..]

I also love him in the episode where there was the “trans” athlete. I loved him in that episode 😭😭💕💕💕

[@mage1439]

Plus the PC babies are awesome.

[@doomdimensiondweller5627]

I think something integration they could do. Is talk about how a lot of the 2000s progressive ideas kind of contradict what progressives advocate for now. I can name a few examples but I will name two about gender since that is what most of PC principles dialogue is about. A lot of 2000s feminist argue that the trans movements reinforces gender roles. A lot of trans people say that they transitioned because they were a woman who enjoyed the boy stuff, but back in the 2000s feminist argued that it was ok to be a woman who liked that stuff and you shouldn't have to change to partake in these interest. On a similar note old guard feminist argued there were no brain differences between men and women. The scientific argument for gender dysphoria though hinges on there being differences between male and female brains.

Since I haven't seen anyone else ever say it, I guess I've gotta be the one who says it: Our man PC and Strong Woman, despite everything wrong with them (as *people*, not as characters) actually have the most loving, stable relationship of any couple on the show.

I don't think he's overstayed his time on the show, what they can do with the character is a bit more limited but Victoria really wasn't used much anyway.

I like PC Principal, since he is dearly struggeling with his weaknesses and flaws. The one who is annoying right now is Randy he is just overplayed, I liked him way more when he just was the town scientist. I am Geologist not a Botanist ! But you are the only scientist around ^^

[@VisorByte]

I wouldn't consider Randy overplayed if they use him in like one episode in season 26 and 2 episodes in season 25, meaning that in the past 2 years, there have been three 3 with Randy in them, and 10 without, or at least very minimal screentime in some of those 10 episodes.

[@backbonepictures78]

I agree he’s overplayed, there’s not a lot of variety in his plot lines from recent episodes, excluding Japanese toilet. Every episode was about his unfunny weed farm

[@chad9186]

Also, in the future, PC Principal was the only adult that still had his job and didn't get thrown into the retirement home

[@ahmadkaien]

I think the issue with Fairy Odd Parents is that they introduced redundant characters Poof and the fairy dog (I don't even care to look up his name,) effectively serve the same purpose And the girl version of Timmy (that blonde girl who shared Cosmo and Wanda) is just that -- the girl version of Timmy. It's almost like they wanted to recreate the show but rebooting it is a no-go

[@kittykittybangbang9367]

BTW the fairy dog's name is Sparky and the girl version of Timmy name is Chloe.

[@kittykittybangbang9367]

Also I find your last sentence hilarious given how Nickelodeon later made a live-action reboot of the show, and now they are making 3d reboot of the show. The Fairly OddParents will truly never end.

[@Im-BAD-at-satire]

I think I stopped watching that show sometime after Poof's appearance, it's been in seasonal rot for a long time now.

[@dejus_e]

When I was a kid I thought Timmy was a girl

[@lee43795]

Poof was fine though even if he didn't do much. FOP didn't really go down until they stopped using timmy's friends and the writers like to overuse Crocker alot. Vicky was no longer the main antagonist and was replaced by Mr. Crocker.

[@SuperBatSpider]

Also even if the babies didn’t see the nuance. Heather harassed their mommy and yelled way too loud around them, they probably hate Heather.

[@1986BNick]

PC Principal is just a personified persona of what Trey and Matt think about a lot of progressives that aren't truly progressives. A true progressive would sound more like that Mustache Twirling Reality Guy (from that "safe space" episode) instead of an Abercrombie white man in sunglasses because they have to be realistic.

[@AbrasiousProductions]

..no.. Mr. Reality is clearly right wing, there's no such thing as a progressive who believes in reality (not anymore)

Bit of a potentially fun fact regarding the PC Babies: while they never really outright confirm which baby is which, from context clues in Buddha Box and Board Girls, you can connect which baby has which name. Riley is the girl with the ponytail and green top; Bailey is the boy with the yellow onesie and the sunglasses that don't seem to fit quite right; Harper is the one in the overalls; Emory is the one in the pink dress; and River is the one who looks the most like PC Principal.

In a way, he’s kinda already getting that. Episodes like Board Girls show PCP learning to accept nuance in situations and not immediately jump to the most “PC” conclusions. The episode with Jimmy is also a good example, as Jimmy challenges PCP with the idea that you don’t have to be “PC” to be a good and respectful person to those who are different from you, and it’s more about unpacking personal biases than pandering to said people. Not to mention that episode’s commentary on censorship and how it hurts marginalized communities to act like they can’t even handle a simple word and to go out of your way to demand it be censored.

Speaking of being uncomfortable with people who are disabled, as someone who is both physically and mentally disabled I'm treated by others like I'm infected with some disease or something. It has lately made dating especially difficult because the women I've tried to date cut and run when they either find out I can't get a regular job and am self-employed or they realize it's not something I can just turn on and off. I used to be more understanding of it, but honestly it just frustrates me to no end that not only can I not pursue the things I love (the physical disabilities came later in my life and stop me from being active and independent) but my mental disabilities that I was born with also make me such a pariah that the only goal I have left to possibly pursue, which is to get married and hopefully have a family or at least have a wife, is made all the more difficult. I'm 30 now and I'm so damn tired of being alone and having every relationship I've ever had end because my disabilities aren't convenient for others. I don't force anything about them on anyone and I can care for myself minus that I can't drive and I'm self-employed, but quite frankly being disabled the way I am has made my life a miserable hell and I'm sick of it sucking. Sorry to complain here, I've just had it especially rough lately and I have nothing good in my life and it's all been hitting me harder lately.

Your entire approach is not helping you at all. The way you describe yourself is so confusing. What is wrong with you? Are you an incel? I don't even mean to be mean but like some people are low iq and very unattractive and they have high standards. You need to find someone who matches you both mentally and physically. That is all. Also stop referring to yourself as disabled unless you literally are. I know it's 2023 and everybody's life is full of injustices and all that but no one gives a fuck and if you looking for a relationship than def need to get better self esteem when describing yourself. I hope you have people in your life. Your comment was really sad for a youtube comment

I really liked when Jimmy became the one to go up against him by the end of the season because I remember predicting he would be the perfect foil for him and he might finally go away. But as time went on, I started finding him more and more endearing, and so I don't really mind him being around anymore.

It gives him more longevity for the show and when he is needed/can be used it will have staying power then any time Victoria was involved due to there established character he already has.

I think PC Principal should have been a one season character. Instead of saving the town of South Park from the ads the finale should've been PC Principal realizing that all of his efforts to transform South Park into his idea of a tolerant town were all for nothing. He should've packed his bags and left. Instead they decided to double down on his antics by introducing a feminist take on his own world views and then with the PC babies it boils down to PC being a child's logic of how social justice really works. We need a middle ground. Otherwise the tolerant become intolerant of others based on superficial traits. Such as race disparities between black and white people. Or hispanic people. Like when PC Principle instead of acknowledging a normal conversation between two friends he saw a white man being racist toward a person of color. Which led him to assault the person he was defending when he got called out for this.

Alright, something to watch while at work later :)

[@prometheusascends501]

The beating he gave cartman was the best intro

[@Potatoguy-qd8ei]

In elementary school pajama day was like this big thing that everyone knew about in high school it's oh it's pajama day I'm just wearing pajamas because I was too tired to put anything else

[@lovedreamer4122]

I just want Principal Victoria back, I wouldn't mind PC stay at home dad

[@smokeyskeet1694]

I love strong woman and pc principle together they’re so cute 〇v〇. Not the continuous musical references through multiple videos

[@Im-BAD-at-satire]

They should introduce an opposite end to PC principal, such as maybe? An anti-woke character of some kind, while the character Reality acts as an antagonist to both PC principal and the hypothetical anti-woke character and that could introduce some sort of satire.

[@doomdimensiondweller5627]

I am a very vocal critic of modern South Park (I define modern South park as 2016 and onwards when social commentary and serialization started to take precedence over singe simple lots and and more free form jokes). I didn't mind PC principle TBH. I love how the same people who hated him were the same clapping seals who thought tegridy farms was god's green gift to comedy and that Randy Marsh was the deepest character in all of fiction. Then again I never really disliked Towlie either and most of the South Park fandom loathes him. I don't know why because IIRC correctly before Tegridy farms he wasn't in that many episodes and his episodes were usually spaced out so in my opinion he never had enough time to overstay his welcome.

[@princesspikachu3915]

The only thing I liked about the Tegredy Farms plot was Towlie. I used to like Randy but I think they took him way too far off the deep. But Towlie was good at grounding Randy in those episodes. That’s just my opinion from what I saw of that season.

[@HotBitchInAnUglyBody]

Oh i dislike both pc principal and tegridy farms/randy, them all feel like boring and annoying oversaturated concepts that died in the first try,i mean i feel like that to almost everything in the later south park seasons

[@gordonchen9510]

The only people who get mad at South Park for progressing are South Park fans. I never understood the fuss about "old South Park" when the show literally changes and progresses every season. You've just gotten old and jaded.

[@towncrieronfire5899]

It's great that you talk about a show that is older than you.

[@russellxhandy]

I know you made it disability video, but I was like Jimmy centered video about just Jimmy, please.

[@wes4736]

Beating me up that I can't make the event. I'm even in Pennsylvania, and a live mock trial of Eren Jaeger sounds super cool

[@niloticnya]

i think that PC Principal and Strong Woman are necessary representations to provide the type of social commentary that South Park is known for. i’m a leftist radfem at a prestigious left leaning school, and can see how most progressive representatives are white men & women. sometimes they drown out minority voices (like mine since im a black woman) and can seem performative. this shows in PC Principal & Strong Woman’s characters. they all have good intentions and it’s important to show how the views of young people are becoming increasingly progressive.

[@mariedit9935]

I feel you omg

[@dannydavidson6588]

I think hes totally worn out and played it's run but now how do we get Victoria back... My nana and I really bonded over the show. she thinks Butters is the most funny thing on the planet ...and loves anything that involves Butters

[@miketurik9404]

Maybe it’s time for PC Principal to go and have a return for a old character we all know in love who made salisberry steak with butter noodle with a dessert of Chocolate salty balls but as a brain washed Darth Vader

[@ifeeldead463]

Depends on how much you like him tbh

[@egalitarius8582]

Hate his extremism

[@SpaceCadet45s]

He's funny sometimes. I wasn't crazy about his romance arc with VP Strongwoman except for that one trans athlete episode.

[@nintendogamingchannel1007]

KittyMonk PC Principal reminds me of All College Deans since 2008.

[@Skycrusher]

I have to give KM credit, at least she's making (What appears to be) her own content, and isn't just a commentary channel.

[@retrogamesmadeeasy8058]

YES YES YES YES YES YES YES A MILLION TIMES YES. Please South Park, Annihilate all of them just like Chef.

[@jam9852]

Yes he has overstayed his welcome PC PRINCIPLE IS only a good character in my eyes when shit blows up in his and his entire PC families face.

[@TravisSelassieSimbawafedha]

I was all in, then you made fun of Michigan ... 😎

22:47 Topher doesn't seem so stupid after the Clone High reboot

[@dgc1570]

I know how that feels, as I have a general anxiety disorder

[@cyl_genderfluid-furry]

FUN FACT! It would've been better if they had a throw away line about how trans men have been forced into women's wrestling before, and often dominate the competition. It would've been even better had they pointed out that trans women almost never even get second place, and everyone who "speaks out" about them either is or knows someone who ranked under them despite them often doing worse than the majority.

[@dragonlink2032]

Yeah about that meeting Alex Brightman comment. A girl I was into actually met him one time!

[@Tank1Sniper]

i just got played i thought i was gonna click on this and ride the rest of my work day with it but no

[@deckkid101]

PC principal was a breath of fresh air, he honestly was a great catalyst for South Park to address modern issues in schools especially. They took a one note character and gave him an arch, strong woman is great too. They humanized these archetypes to me.

[@jeromelancashire3278]

What is the Elijah Michaelson treatment? if Elijah was supposed to die than screw The Vampire Diarrheas, it's called the William Pratt treatment.

[@VampirePrinceKRS]

wait. he's supposed to be a villain? I never minded him. I do miss Victoria but am very glad they didn't kill her off to put PC in charge. they seem to enjoy killing off a lot of female faculty members. the males get to sit back & become back round characters but if you're female faculty it's highly likely you're dying when your use/episodes are up. I'm guessing that's because of the limited number of voice actors they use but it never sat right with me.

[@lexyruse603]

They've only done that to TWO female teachers. Well also the bus driver but honestly I never liked her anyway. And I feel like both the teachers dying were to in a way mirror each other because both teachers had a prank pulled on them by the boys that didn't actually result in their death. I think the deaths of the teachers have less to do with them being female and more to do with Mr. Garrisons job is just cursed. He's always gonna come back.

[@VampirePrinceKRS]

@@lexyruse603 no they've killed 4 female teachers. Wendy ultimately got Ms. Ellen killed & also Ms. Stevenson died at the end of her episode. Ms. Stevenson is the only one I feel deserved death.

[@ultra-papasmurf]

@@VampirePrinceKRS wasnt Ms. Ellen a literal succubus tho?

[@VampirePrinceKRS]

@@ultra-papasmurf no that's a different character. Ms. Ellen was just a substitute teacher that Wendy thought was going to take Stan away from her. Ms. Ellen was a lesbian.

[@retrogamesmadeeasy8058]

They've killed off male characters too. Chef, Pip and Cartman's dad just to name 3.

[@NipWhipple]

Your videos are comforting

[@beccanatorthe-only-one7479]

I know this comment is off topic, but every time I hear someone say that the Canadian PM is the Canadian Trump (I do laugh), I find myself yelling at my phone, "THAT'S HARPER". So I've decided to stop yelling at my phone and just comment on it. That's not Trump, that's Harper. Thank you for your time.

[@rachelpogue66]

The funny part about the whole Caitlyn Jenner thing is that transgender people don't even like her, she's just the only transgender celebrity a lot of cis people know so she's always their go to
