"After the seniors have mowed down more than a few farmers' markets, South Park residents no longer feel it's safe to be out in the streets. With their well being at stake, the boys decide to take action against the older generation. Unwilling to surrender their licenses, the elderly enlist the help of one of the most powerful organizations in Washington."

Enjoy.
 
Judging from the clips of the old people shooting guns, I'm guessing that the oldsters turn to the NRA for help since they're nothing but old people with guns, and I'm sure Matt and Trey would have a lot of fun spoofing them. I mean, if they can make Christopher Reeve a fetus sucking supervillain even though he's paralyzed, imagine what they could do in spoofing NRA guy Charlton Heston even though he has Alzhemier's. I don't think Heston's the NRA President anymore, but I can imagine that Matt and Trey would have plans to mock him mercilessly anyway if they had the chance. Even if they're not doing that tonight it should be good anyway, at least let's hope so.
 
I love it when people take cracks at hippies.

Sadly, this is how old people really drive. Well, it's close to it anyway.

That fisher looks like a grown-up Kyle. Same hair color, same clothe color, it's grown-up Kyle!

The Senior citizen meeting is funny as hell.

Horror of horrors!

Is this the first time they played street hockey?

I love how they just happened to have a mansion there when they could have just as easily ran into Stan's house.

I don't wanna know why that dead body was there.

Aw, they should have had that one citizen have half his face in blue paint.

Y'know, this would be a good episode to have Kenny die in, even though he probably won't.

It's been a while since Stan's grandpa has had a focus episode, hasn't it?

Wow, I didn't know the AARP had military weapons. Who knew?

Old Country Buffet is evil, I knew it!

Poor Nameless Store Clerk Guy. We knew him well.

I'm shocked that that old lady could even hold the missile launcher...

You knew Cartman was gonna try and kill Kyle again for no reason.

Lemme guess, it was only 4 hours?

I feel for you, Stan. I feel for you.
 
This proved to be a rather funny episode. One of the highlights included Cartman's plan. He really wants Kyle to die, huh? Heh.

Kyle is my favorite character and all but that was pretty funny.
 
Something was off

It was a really good premise, but.....I felt it just could've been better. Not bad, as there were plenty good parts (especially towards the end), but....meh. A little below usual South Park standards.
 
Old People Get Pissed Off And Rebel When They're Drivers Licenses Are Taken Away In The South Park Episode Review of "Grey Dawn".

Kind of a bleh plot, but it had some really good jokes (Cartman making fun of the hippies, all the old people driving and accidently killing people, Cartman being a good street hockey goalie because he's so fat, the seniors wanting to have a meeting at the community center and not realizing they're already having one, All of Cartman's taunts at Kyles (saying he dosen't love him like the other guys, saying he's bad at hockey because he's jewish, his plan at the end involved Kyle sacrifing himself), Grandpa Marsh driving with the boys and then going to jail, the AARC coming to town, already stated Cartma's plan (and how easy it worked) and Stan at the end saying he hates his family) give this a B.

No, it would be a good episode to have Kyle die in.
 
believe me, I live in Florida, I'm on the front lines here, fortunately I'm a survivor and most of the old folks live WAAAAAAY north of me still I don't know why but it seemed kinda tame for a south park episode
 
well, a bit of drama in the 2nd half, which i enjoyed, but mostly the 1st half was the hilarious.

All those old people killing on the roads, then getting confused and thinking they should hold a meeting when they already are having a meeting. :anime:

all those old folk's cars chasing the kids, now that was something cool.. also cartman envisioning kyle dead.... i wonder if soon they'll start killing kyle off every episode? would be a change...

nice to see grandpa marsh again, after a truly long time on the shelf (believe it or not). Also garrison's little role was cool.

nice take on red dawn, i guess.

i don't think i've been to country kitchens, but shoneys are the bomb.

not last place. *DING*
 
oh one more thing..

here's hoping sampo can get some screencaps of this , too, if sampo can, can sampo?
 
More funny

Highlights of "Grey Dawn" included the bulldozer getting run over, the meeting, the scene where Randy and the gang run from the old people, and Kyle getting "blown up" at the Country Kitchen, which was very, very funny.

Out of 5, i give it 4.

That was so funny where old people were being made fun of driving and not remembering what they were so mad about. It was funny when everyone panic when the senior citizens were all driving together. Cartman's plan to blow up both the Old Country's Buffer and Kyl was so damn funny!
 
Some pretty funny parts but definatly mediocre compared to the first two episodes in this run. But parts like Cartman's plan and the zombie movie parody with the cars chasing Randy and the boys were pretty funny. And is it just me, or is Randy Marsh getting funnier and funnier this season, with his rock and roll song in "I'm a Little Bit Country", battling SARS in "Red Man's Greed"[Stanley, I have SARS. There's only a 98% chance I'll live]his one liner about how bad the boys music was last week, and now this week with his loud warnings, his babying of Grandpa, and explaning how the old people get so much done so early. His scenes and Grandpa's were the other highlights of the show for me. Buit I do hope next week's show as a whole is better.
 
I thought it was great....


Especially when they all started freaking out when they realized that all the old people were at a meeting and that it ment they'd all be driving at the same time.

Watched the live-action "Moana" today and felt nothing that special compared to the original 2016 film. In fact, I don't remember much from the first animated film, but I think they barely changed anything in the 2026 version
@Sam the Cartoonist is right, I've registered on this site two times and I've enjoyed it! :) I'd posted this back in 2016, over ten years ago!
