I would say by Season 6

-Pip and Mr. Hat are retired as characters

-Ms. Choksondik is gone forever

-Ms. Crabtree barely appears by now

-Chef’s prominence as a character starts slowing down

-Terrence & Philip are barely seen from here on

    Oh man, when does SP go from comedy show to Trey Parker’s pulpit? I’m not sure where to end first era or start second era but third era definitely starts with PC Principal and the show declaring that they lost the culture war.

      I’m starting to categorize it like

      Seasons 1-4: early years

      Seasons 5-8: Old but gold

      Seasons 9-18: The social commentary era

      Seasons 18-present : Modern era that forgot to be funny for the most part
