It all started with a bang — literally.
After reports surfaced Wednesday that “South Park” creators Matt Stone and Trey Parker were scrambling to alter their post-election episode due to Donald Trump’s shocking victory Tuesday night, TV fans didn’t know what to expect when the animated comedy began. But hopes were high, as the historic series has repeatedly stepped up to the greatest satiric challenges over 20 years, often providing pointed insight into murky cultural moments. So when “Oh, Jeez” (formerly titled “The Very First Gentleman”) opened with the big reveal that Mr. Garrison (a.k.a. Giant Douche, by the show’s terminology) won the presidency, seeing a random Colorado voter blow his brains out on the spot probably felt like a fitting start.
