South Park: Hummels & Heroin (2017)
Season 21, Episode 5
4/10
Somewhat funny, but follows the trend of mediocrity from this season.

This season, as I've mentioned before, is just kind of blah. It is meandering around, throws out a few current issues, but doesn't seem to have any real direction.

It wastes a lot of time on boring stuff or mediocre side issues, and I just don't find it that hilarious of late.

Like many shows of this caliber and tenure, it has become quite a challenge for the writers to chalk up new and original programming that delivers at such a high pace/level.

The Chucky Cheese guy dying and the Old Lady Gangsta running the home were amusing, but still kind of a drag as an overall episode. I felt it was missing something, though I still enjoyed it a bit.

This season just isn't delivering on all cylinders like the show used to. Family Guy and others have been suffering from the same lethargy-- though FG picked it up a notch with their latest episode, so maybe there is hope that South Park will deliver a knock-out punch and start rolling again soon.
