South Park “Crack Baby Athletic Association” S15 E5 Review + Recap

Thank you, Trey Parker and Matt Stone. Thank you for fifteen years of laughs and hard-hitting social commentary, and thank you for this episode. “Crack Baby Athletic Association” is the funniest, sharpest, most tightly paced episode yet this season.

I’ve been fairly ambivalent about the first few episodes this season, but “Crack Baby Athletic Association” cleared any lingering doubts that Parker and Stone could keep up the ingenuity of South Park under the new demands as creators of a successful, Tony-nominated Broadway musical.
