Is this Canadian Prince and Princess the same canonically as the ones in Royal Pudding? I know in that episode they were modeled after Harry's btother and HIS wife, but in the South Park universe are these the same characters?
I like the message of both episodes, but I found episode one to be better, I feel like they didn’t have a proper conclusion to episode two, no big change happened, there was a 15 second argument between Kyle and the prince. That being said, I absolutely love that they went back to the Canadian bit, and the Cupid me bit. It really is seeming like they are making a conscious effort to make old South Park episodes again
@@KrisD007 Absolutely. I think that the ending was incredibly telling. I don't understand why anyone couldn't see what it was saying. The Canadian Prince found that you should be yourself to be truly happy and his wife remained silent. In the end he realises that the woman he married was simply an empty shell.
@@dulciemidwinter1925 I may be autistic, but I'm not retarded; obviously there was a conclusion, what I'm saying is that SP usually has a big event leading up to the 'moral of the story' moment.

I think he's best friend is Kim Jong un or what ever he's name was. It just tells a lot. Ofc I don't personally know them, but how they make living and acting in their bubble shows something. When someone have so big messy between ears, it could seen in their business.
he's a clown who doesn't actually know what's going on and could be merc'd at any time if 'they' really wanted... He's also mentally ill and should garner sympathy, but people keep letting him make them angry and he keeps on trolling along... Media ultimately benefiting most likely... i suppose that's the proper response[Rose Bell Peacock's] to seeing Kanye, but he just makes me made tbh... wish we could see him get slapped instead of chris rock... lol am I just perpetuating the hatred cycle with Kanye? Iunno but that fool is GONE... went on alex jones in a mask saying all kinds of fucked up shit
When I was 8, I was diagnosed with Autism in the late 90s. Everyone said I was a victim... for some reason. And I relished in that until I was about 18. 15 years later, it's insane how much of my friends and family have suddenly magically diagnosed themselves with Autism, or ADHD or some other form of neurodivergency. It comes off as wildly inauthentic and dishonest. It's bizarre.
Was I the only one who thought Butters' "brand" was a hint of him taking on an Andrew Tate type persona in the future? He is a former pimp after all. Lol imagine Andrew actually shows up and fights PC Principal or something.
The Magical Mystery Tour parody is so great, but I just realized it also makes sense because The Beatles were British. Simple, but I never put that together.
South Park Worldwide Privacy Tour was top of their game with this one. I am sure Ike and South Park kids will be watching Coronation on big Community screen in South Park Central park in part duo.
Never seen South Park before and I’m Canadian. Loved the 1950s/1960s radio announcer accent used. Hilarious and dead on. There are a few historical references that are fab like the worldwide privacy tour echoing the Beatles magical mystery tour. The candle was so dead on for anyone following the saga of Harry and Meghan. The candle that blocked Meghan during the historic Queen’s funeral. Really clever references that give some gravitas to the satire. Let alone the brilliant dead on criticism of this vapid, vacuous brand obsessed greedy talentless lying duo. .
Canada has been in the show over a dozen times, it even has it's own episodes & they're always great. Canada's also a main part of the plot in the 1999 film & the Stick of Truth game, hope this helps you enjoy more South Park
As always, very insightful and discerning. I particularly appreciate your point about improvement of interpretation. Most of all, special shout out for Gay Fish Kanye! I really missed him and I agree that felt like a missed opportunity.
South park ought to get an Oscar or at the very least, the Ripple of Hope Award for giving everyone hope that it's okay to tell the truth, and boy, real truth is funnier than fiction.!!!
Jared I appreciate you so much. As someone who is generally liberal with a lot of leftist friends, I’ve been put off with just how poorly people can handle information they give and are given. The lines between appreciation and appropriation are blurred like hell, and anyone who’s ever felt a slight bit of social anxiety or discomfort feels fully justified in not only playing the victim, but blowing their experience up to believe its a national issue that needs correcting. A lot of people don’t realize they’re practically functioning at a child’s level, unable to distinguish their own world views from the reality that we live in a massive world full of complexities they could never understand; they’re more concerned about pointing fingers and blaming the nearest person who disagrees with them for all their life’s problems.
You are correct, it is the mindset of a child. This is a good summary of why, as I grew older, I moved away from the left and now stand center aisle as much as possible. It's better to embrace reason, rational and respectful debate, and the understanding that personal agency and accountability will get you much further in life than playing the perpetual victim. Sadly, the new left seems to get offended by these very concepts. They reduce every argument to emotional and moral stakes, as opposed to the sort of epistemological perspective that people like Jared provide (thank you Jared, I've followed you since the early Wisecrack days).
Left-wing politics describes the range of political ideologies that support and seek to achieve social equality and egalitarianism, often in opposition to social hierarchy.[1][2][3][4] Left-wing politics typically involve a concern for those in society whom its adherents perceive as disadvantaged relative to others as well as a belief that there are unjustified inequalities that need to be reduced or abolished.[1] Left-wing politics are associated with popular or state control of major political and economic institutions.[5] According to emeritus professor of economics Barry Clark, supporters of left-wing politics "claim that human development flourishes when individuals engage in cooperative, mutually respectful relations that can thrive only when excessive differences in status, power, and wealth are eliminated."[6] - from Wikipedia
@Bryan Fine I feel like Centrism is kind of a cop-out, generally, and that identifying what you've described exclusively with "the Left" suggests you don't have a lot of personal experience with Rightists. I say so because blaming others for their problems and disengaging from things that are challenging are things that all kinds of people do, and no one "side" has a claim to the preponderance of this. I can't tell you how many "Centrists" I've met who collapse into defending the status quo or shutting down when met with criticism or information that runs up against what they've identified with, exactly as many times as I've seen Leftists and Rightists do the same. The expressions they use may be different--you'll see Rightists default to talk about nation or manhood, where Leftists will usually fall back on rhetoric about self-care or bigotry--but to identify this universal human problem, the utter unwillingness to be wrong, with one "side" of anything is missing the forest for the trees. It's because we identify with the things we accept, that is, we make what we've chosen to believe is true a part of our identities, and when that gets challenged, the impulse is to find whatever words make that challenge go away, not to seriously consider it.
" I am a completely self-righteous person, never can go wrong, I care strongly about my personal success/prestige in this world, and I love to exert power. - Which ideology/ brand serves best to reach my personal goals? - Alas, everybody who stands in my way is Da Evulz. "
I also liked episode 2 better cuz I’m always a sucker for the Canadian aesthetics of South Park. I feel like this the first time in a while they didn’t reference the “…friend, …buddy, …guy” thing & I always love that bit, but it’s absence didn’t bring it down for me. Their take on “brands” really hit the nail on the head: people get whittled down to products, & are seen as one dimensional & not as fleshed out individuals. Plus that book title “Waagh” really got me lol. Looking forward to what they come up with for the rest of the season. & I hope to see more of your takes on the episodes.
I might be wrong but I think prince Harry did call someone buddy? And I completely agree, the whole Canadian aspect of the show is so funny from the jokes to the character design.
I read Stan's jealousy as being what it is on the surface; a little boy jealous that his best friend is hanging out with somebody else but not wanting to make a scene and keeping it inside. As we saw in Assburgers and Post-Covid, one of Stan's flaws is that he struggles with emotional honesty and tends to withdraw from or lash out at Kyle when there's an issue between them. I'm glad they're getting back to character-driven stories rather than JUST having them stand-in for headlines or positions. However, Stan's sadness does serve Cartman and Cupid Ye as their "good intention as an excuse to do something bigoted". So it works in the metaphor as that.
Also it showed that sometimes, because of how the world is, even if our issue isn't based in prejudices or racial identity, that can come into play. Stan's not thinking about Kyle being Jewish or Tolkien being Black, but his jealousy leads to Cartman targeting those identities.
You always hit the nail on the head! So grateful South Park stopped serialization. Seasons 19 through 24 were rough. Funny af, but not the same. They are better with their traditional formula 🥳
@@plugmanjohnson7456 That's why I didn't liked S19-25 , I think it was much more for USA audiences to enjoy.. Personally for me there were few just okey episodes but nothing memorable I do rember mostly all episodes from S1-18 , I can still rewatch old episodes and they still holds up and are very funny. I was actually kinda disappointed becuse I didn't liked 19-25 but my friend who hated SP really liked thoes hmmmm...
I think the problem with Serialization for South Park is that they focus on very current events so if something happens that they weren't expecting (the 2016 presidential results as an example) they have to write themselves out of a corner.
Thank you for coming back Jared, i growth with you and I love your content and your way to deconstruct our society and thought’s in reference to media and other mediums. Seeing you gone from wisecrack broke my heart and brought me to tears as I really don’t see that many people with deep thoughts as yours and with the clever genuine touch that you put in your analysis. Thank you ❤
Elon Musk guest-starred on South Park a few years back as himself, and Trey and Matt probably don't disagree enough with his politics to do that. As a self-identified classical liberal (with not-self-diagnosed high functioning autism) who thinks that Musk had good ideas at one point but then got a bit too rich for his own good, and also thinks that South Park's classical liberal politics and so-called "both-sides-ism" make it a better and more necessary show in this era, not a worse one, I think that not mocking Musk is the right decision, in part because there's plenty of stuff out there making fun of him already.
@@ConcernedAlien The problem is that conservatives all over the world have drifted much farther away from the center and "both sides" doesn't work when you're talking to people increasingly embracing faschism, a tech feudalist like Musk is so far removed from a regular person having a political stance nowadays because he and his cohorts have immeasurably more influence on politics than any single person casting their vote, I've fallen out of love with Southpark in my early 20s once the blind spots of the creators stood out to me more and I only occasionally check back in but yeah, maybe both sides-ism isn't something anyone should defend in today's political climate, would you ask Southpark set in the Weimar republic do a "both sides" with the rising NSDAP?
Happy to hear your thoughts, as always. I'm far from a royalist, but I don't think Harry even nearly fits the definition of a narcissist. When all I heard were headlines, I had the exact same impression as South Park. After seeing his interview with Stephen Colbert, my opinion started to soften. My wife began reading his book and relaying it to me. I can certainly relate to some of his family dynamics and mental health issues. I can concede that Meghan's public behavior can come across as antisocial and fake, which makes her an easy villain. I also know it would be bad faith to accept my impression of her public personality as fact. At the very least, like most things, it's complicated. I had to suspend my understanding of the situation and laughed, but I don't think there's much of a deeper truth here. The branding stuff, on the other hand, was A+. Gotta go update all my social media profiles. Keep on being a thoughtful, intelligent, dog-loving victim.
He seems painfully unaware of the real world. Stuff like when he said that people whose jobs damage their mental health should just quit, naming women he's had sex with without their consent, and likening his post war experiences to vets who've been left permanently disabled. He doesn't seem malicious, he just... doesn't seem to grasp the implications and consequences of what he says.
The crazy thing is Southpark made me like Kanye more back in the day, the late 00s/early 10s Southpark version of him is more likeable than the real guy.
I just found out your channel again after watching a lot of you on wisecrack, glad to see South Park still a recurring theme here, I love this skeptical view that criticize everything and everyone, that South Park and the old Wisecrack used to bring.
Southpark was illuminating. I do take issue with you saying India was poor because of his papa. India is very rich, but corrupt. Blaming people for what happened when they weren't around is not a sound argument. We could all look back at our ancestors and probably not be very proud!
South Park might be the best terapy for Harry, as we know none of the past years of terapy help in any way this man child filled w/ rage, jealousy , bitterness etc. It might be the first time someone shows him how ridiculously ingrate he is toward the fact he was born in a very priviledge environment. I hope those episodes will give a shot of clarity on his life & family. Now about his wife I don´t expect much as she is shallow, empty & greedy inside and has no real empathy, grace & class.Past time to move on Harry, Wake up.Rewrite the story!!!!.
I'm Canadian and really do not understand the obsession with Harry and Meghan. As for the message of the episode, I find the best way to build a brand is to be as honest as possible, be yourself, so you are always authentic and will attract the right people.
Really no one cares about the couple. Megan like in the episode is controlling what ever controversy she could spring up. I feel bad for Harry as he just picked the wrong women and clearly isn't with the PR stunts
Omar You are so right. That man have hard times when he's wife acting like some drunken teen after their partying. And when it's less wanted to happen :D
I just saw the "Worldwide Privacy Tour" episode last night. Any idea why the branding company was named Cum Hammer? I feel like it's a reference to something specific in the real world, but I can't place it.
Can all in left media please start educating everyone about both the: (1) difference between right-authoritarian vs. right-libertarian; & (2) difference between left-authoritarian vs left-libertarian? It’s long overdue. People aren’t cattle or sheep: They will understand if we educate them. Though we need to educate (& learn) about all the nuance.
For example: Two different left YTers, Step Back & Anark, who both recently released videos on this topic, made horribly inaccurate videos on the subject. Just atrocious: They both expressed basically no interest in logic or empirical truth. We are in a deplorable state for left YT…
I agree, but I don't think that spamming this in the comments of every Jared Bauer video is going to help the problem. Try putting it in the comments sections of other politics RUclipsrs that could afford to start doing this.
my goodness what a great find this channel is. I was just here to enjoy the crap thrown at Harry and Megan but I am treated with such a good commentary. 😂
Jared, were you the voice i use to hear from that leftist chanel... i forgot the name of tbe chanel, but watched alot of metaphysic, meta explaination of southpark and other philosophical stuff
The credits at the very end of Cupid-Ye had me dying. "Let the jew control Hollywood" *All the credits are Matt Stone, except for assistant for "Mr. Stone" being Trey Parker*
The Simpsons should do an episode. They could have Harry and Megan move in next door to the Simpson and Ned Flanders. I'm sure Homer would be welcoming.?
I actually thought they were quite fair to Harry to be honest.
He is an actual victim....of Meghan Markle
@@MrConredsX But not a victim, obviously.
@@ChristophBrinkmann Famous. Pussy whipped. Prince. Victim.
The Prince’s brand.
@@MrConredsX he's a big boy he can make his own decisions she's responsible for her mistakes and he's responsible for his
@@MrConredsX he’s not a child 🤣 he makes his own decisions. I think they should’ve gone harder on him
I couldn't stop laughing when Harry spoke into Meghan and there's an echo.
IKR! The main villain in The Pensuke Files, Pensuke is kinda like Megan when it comes to the cynical cash grab.
The best moment was Harry AKA "the Canadian Prince" opening her head and staring into the abyss...
Yep, and finding nothing there…
It's good one ^_^
Is this Canadian Prince and Princess the same canonically as the ones in Royal Pudding? I know in that episode they were modeled after Harry's btother and HIS wife, but in the South Park universe are these the same characters?

I think South Park has enough information to do a part 2 of the Canadian prince and princess! 😂
I think 'the prince' having his realization at the door of CumHammer was a pretty good conclusion.
The prince realized he didn’t need to be brand and saw MEghan was an empty void and left her to go be real. Did you watch the same episode?
@@KrisD007 Absolutely. I think that the ending was incredibly telling. I don't understand why anyone couldn't see what it was saying.

In Cupid Ye, it's Cupid turning people into Nazis only to be stopped by Cartmans medication, where the moment of reflection happens.
I am saying that in S26e2, butters had a 10 second fight, walked to CumHammer, and the prince had an aha moment. It didn't feel earned at all.
Also, it's hilarious that Butters, the longtime South Park scammer, recommended Kyle on getting himself a brand (or more so a grifter).
I’m sorry but butters is a legitimate businessman. Do you know what I am saying?

@@ConcernedAlien The problem is that conservatives all over the world have drifted much farther away from the center and "both sides" doesn't work when you're talking to people increasingly embracing faschism, a tech feudalist like Musk is so far removed from a regular person having a political stance nowadays because he and his cohorts have immeasurably more influence on politics than any single person casting their vote, I've fallen out of love with Southpark in my early 20s once the blind spots of the creators stood out to me more and I only occasionally check back in but yeah, maybe both sides-ism isn't something anyone should defend in today's political climate, would you ask Southpark set in the Weimar republic do a "both sides" with the rising NSDAP?
Elon musk didn't mess up bad like other celebs.
@@averagedickmoney310 Have you ignored Musk’s insanity and antics the last 12 months? lol bless your heart
Happy to hear your thoughts, as always. I'm far from a royalist, but I don't think Harry even nearly fits the definition of a narcissist.
When all I heard were headlines, I had the exact same impression as South Park. After seeing his interview with Stephen Colbert, my opinion started to soften. My wife began reading his book and relaying it to me. I can certainly relate to some of his family dynamics and mental health issues. I can concede that Meghan's public behavior can come across as antisocial and fake, which makes her an easy villain. I also know it would be bad faith to accept my impression of her public personality as fact. At the very least, like most things, it's complicated.
I had to suspend my understanding of the situation and laughed, but I don't think there's much of a deeper truth here.
The branding stuff, on the other hand, was A+. Gotta go update all my social media profiles.
Keep on being a thoughtful, intelligent, dog-loving victim.
his wife most likely is tho
i just wanna say i really dig how sober your thought process is here
He seems painfully unaware of the real world. Stuff like when he said that people whose jobs damage their mental health should just quit, naming women he's had sex with without their consent, and likening his post war experiences to vets who've been left permanently disabled.
He doesn't seem malicious, he just... doesn't seem to grasp the implications and consequences of what he says.
The crazy thing is Southpark made me like Kanye more back in the day, the late 00s/early 10s Southpark version of him is more likeable than the real guy.
"To fit your personality to what others seem more desirable..." Well said!🤣👍
I just found out your channel again after watching a lot of you on wisecrack, glad to see South Park still a recurring theme here, I love this skeptical view that criticize everything and everyone, that South Park and the old Wisecrack used to bring.
always a treat when you have a new video out.
Cartman has DID; they flashed it in this episode where Cupid Ye is in the bedroom but in reality it’s Cartman.
Yes! Been waiting for this!
SUUUUUPPPEEERRRR HAPPY to see you again Mr, subscribed now and looking forward to great analysis :)
Home run? Grand slam!!! Great job Trey and Matt!!! The harkles are already talking suing.
Great summation. Bravo.👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Always super smart points Jared, thank you. Loved watching.
MOM !!!
SOUTH PARK IS AT IT AGAIN. YOU GONNA LOVE THIS ONE.
My man Jared is BACK
My son's name is also Jared. I have enjoyed both episodes of the new season, I laughed at Harry's book titled "Whaagh" lol
2:00 feels like you were talking directly to me. I just started online content creation 😂😂
I'm just a casual Wisecrack fan that wondered where they guy that I liked went. Glad to see you
Glad to see you back ✌🏻
Very good commentary, I enjoyed
Excellent points about interpretation …. We have to be vigilant always.
Are you going to talk about the recent AI explosion/ presidents videos? Would love to hear your thoughts Jared
wow nice to know you now have your own channel, thanks youtube algorithm
Southpark was illuminating. I do take issue with you saying India was poor because of his papa. India is very rich, but corrupt. Blaming people for what happened when they weren't around is not a sound argument. We could all look back at our ancestors and probably not be very proud!
I agree, it’s a lazy argument, as other former colonies in Asia like Singapore and Hong Kong are extremely rich
Well said.. Really well said! Genius!
South Park might be the best terapy for Harry, as we know none of the past years of terapy help in any way this man child filled w/ rage, jealousy , bitterness etc. It might be the first time someone shows him how ridiculously ingrate he is toward the fact he was born in a very priviledge environment. I hope those episodes will give a shot of clarity on his life & family. Now about his wife I don´t expect much as she is shallow, empty & greedy inside and has no real empathy, grace & class.Past time to move on Harry, Wake up.Rewrite the story!!!!.
I’ve been enjoying how much this season has put more focus on the kids!
I stopped watching when Trey & Matt started focusing too much on Stan.
@@scottbrower9052 more like Randy
Superb analysis, take my Sub.
I'm Canadian and really do not understand the obsession with Harry and Meghan. As for the message of the episode, I find the best way to build a brand is to be as honest as possible, be yourself, so you are always authentic and will attract the right people.
Really no one cares about the couple. Megan like in the episode is controlling what ever controversy she could spring up. I feel bad for Harry as he just picked the wrong women and clearly isn't with the PR stunts
Omar
You are so right. That man have hard times when he's wife acting like some drunken teen after their partying. And when it's less wanted to happen :D
I just saw the "Worldwide Privacy Tour" episode last night. Any idea why the branding company was named Cum Hammer? I feel like it's a reference to something specific in the real world, but I can't place it.
Ahhh that familiar voice, wisecrack. You were the best in that, your voice atleast or yr presence... glad yr back with yr own wisecrack 2.0
Very well explained 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Can all in left media please start educating everyone about both the: (1) difference between right-authoritarian vs. right-libertarian; & (2) difference between left-authoritarian vs left-libertarian? It’s long overdue. People aren’t cattle or sheep: They will understand if we educate them.
Though we need to educate (& learn) about all the nuance.
For example:
Two different left YTers, Step Back & Anark, who both recently released videos on this topic, made horribly inaccurate videos on the subject. Just atrocious: They both expressed basically no interest in logic or empirical truth. We are in a deplorable state for left YT…
I agree, but I don't think that spamming this in the comments of every Jared Bauer video is going to help the problem. Try putting it in the comments sections of other politics RUclipsrs that could afford to start doing this.
@@ConcernedAlien This isn’t spam. That’s rude. Don’t reply to me again in the future. Bye.
@@ConcernedAlien …
@@user-wl2xl5hm7k hmm…
U r wise crack guy , so happy to find u again!
How was I not already subbed to this channel?
Wow, your really well spoken, nice video
A wall with both Kraftwerk and Beethoven - Respect!
Can you explain again how colonialism led to poverty in India (as per your comment)
“ It’s so awesome to be here it’s greaaaat” 😂
jared did you hear or read professor moeller? his work is particulary relevant for the first episode
Kupid Ye was >
This season has a strong start though you gotta give it to them
thanks for sharing your PoV.

Honestly not related to the video, but Jared I would be very curious of your take on Crimes of the Future
Do you like fish sticks?
The blue todger was a cry laughing moment 🤣🤣
They didn’t even need to push it as far as they usually do. These two speak for themselves.
my goodness what a great find this channel is. I was just here to enjoy the crap thrown at Harry and Megan but I am treated with such a good commentary. 😂
I like the robert smith look Jared!
@JaredBauer Essentially, Eric is recovering and is becoming more tame.
Great video.Thank you
episode made me think of youtube alot for some reason
Jared, were you the voice i use to hear from that leftist chanel... i forgot the name of tbe chanel, but watched alot of metaphysic, meta explaination of southpark and other philosophical stuff
You're thinking of Wisecrack.
Hello, great video as always! It may be time to consider adding Trey Parker and Matt Stone to the wall behind you..?
or at least Cartman...
Wait are u the wise guy from that one other channel?
I agree the H&M episode felt like the old days just more polished.
6:15 Its because in the episode Cartman is acting like a "good Christian"
Matt and Trey are a national treasure
J, is there a whiteboard with your notes behind the camera? Your eyes! Meme-like.
“Hey im making moving in silence!!!”
-meghan and The Prince
The credits at the very end of Cupid-Ye had me dying.
"Let the jew control Hollywood"
*All the credits are Matt Stone, except for assistant for "Mr. Stone" being Trey Parker*
No one is asking why Harry is drawn as a Canadian he is British?
Your voice is golden, please take good care of it. I felt like I was listening to Respect our Autorita, lol. Miss those moments!
I like Stravinsky and Beethoven on the wall, very good review
I see two powerful human being .You cannot destroy Great mind .Power. Of the mind . Love them more.
Ur brilliant Sir! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
The Simpsons should do an episode. They could have Harry and Megan move in next door to the Simpson and Ned Flanders. I'm sure Homer would be welcoming.?
Can you make a video on the Hogwarts legacy backlash? It would be interesting to get your insight on the topic.
