South Park's History of Serialization

South Park and serialization. A subject that has been a bit of a debate in the fandom over the past 7 or 8 years. Is it ruining the show? Or has it breathed new life into it? I don’t think there’s a definitive answer, BUT, while many people attribute serialization to the most current era of South Park, the reality is that… they were dabbling in serialized elements for YEARS before embracing it more thoroughly. Arguably dating back to season 1! So I thought it might be fun to take a look back and explore the entire history of serialization in South Park, and talk a little bit about whether its changed the show for the better or worse.
