Reception
Jesse Schedeen with IGN rated the entire season a 8.2 out of 10, noting "Creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone seem to have decided that they took the continuity-driven approach about as far as it could go last year. Season 21 shifted gears by returning the show to its roots, and the series became better for it. There was still a certain degree of continuity involved with Season 20. The events of one episode were sometimes referenced in subsequent episodes, and the rapidly deteriorating relationship between Cartman and Heidi gave the show one serialized storyline to explore over the course of the fall. But for the most part, the emphasis was more on standalone adventures that downplayed topical humor in favor of sillier conflicts centered around the kids of South Park Elementary. It's not that this season ignored what was going on in the world this year, but it wasn't quite so obsessed with lampooning current events from week to week. That shift, more than anything else, resulted in a stronger, more well-rounded show."
