I think we acknowledge how diverse the South park fanbase is in question of age, and I notice how the younger fans of the show (me included) detest Tegridy Randy while the older fans seem to like and relate to him and his attitude.

Me personally, I dislike him and I’m a younger fan with asshole parents lol. I want to hear all opinions of all age groups.

    I’m young and I love him. My mom hates him but my dad loves him. I don’t think it’s about age.

    I’ve been a fan since day 1, so I am in the old group. Randy has evolved more than any character on the show from just a side character to one of the main voices. Sure, he can be annoying at times, but I absolutely love the character and think he’s added great depth.

    I think I was in High School right around the time Randy’s character started to break out the show (“I didn’t hear no bell”) and I loved him, and so did all of my friends. Still do, even with his Tegridy. I think they’ve eased off the weed stuff a little bit as of late. In the Panderverse special, for instance, he felt like Randy, just in his Tegridy setting.

    Tegridy Randy was fun for a while but should have ended seasons ago. Time to move back to the old house.

    I’m not a fan of him, I like his character as the bad man he is (like Cartman is bad except he’s only a child) but I mean I don’t want so many episodes centred around him personally

    I doubt it. Generally, the most, or at least one of the most funny characters in a comedy, is the idiot father. Think South Park, the simpsons, malcolm in the middle, friends, modern family, arrested development, family guy, American pie, etc.

      I totally disagree in Father’s being idiots in some of these…silly and off yes but not idiots. Randy is an idiot and a lame character.

    I like all the Randy versions, just like other versions a little more than the rest.

        Same. I love the show and if there’s an episode I don’t like, I don’t watch it. Tegrity weed really seems to get on peoples nerves for some reason. I love it. I can relate to it.

    Mid 30s ,Ive watched since season 1 premiered and the tegridy stuff was good enough. I loved it at first but it went on longer than I expected. Still didn’t hate it. A good tegridy ep would come up enough to overcome the stagnation feeling. No regrets but at this point Id like the show to move on from it.

    I’ve been around since Jesus Vs Santa and I absolutely love Randy’s character arc. He’s had sooooo many great episodes and is responsible for lots of great gags.

    Yes, the Tegrity storyline has probably gone on for too long, but I still love him because he’s so gd unpredictable.

    I mean we’re 26 seasons in and are still getting some quality laughs. Not many shows can say the same. Randy is a big part of that equation.

    I’m in my 40’s and definitely relate to Randy. He’s a self centered asshole who cares more about his own happiness than his family but I would definitely be the same if I had kids as well.

    1. Watched SP since the premiere in 1997 (I think). Loooooove Randy. But agree with many that pre Tegridy Randy was a bit better.
