Clavicular is spoofed in the latest episode of 'South Park' (Comedy Central)
South Park is racking up rave reviews after taking on Clavicular, looksmaxxing and aura farming in its latest episode.
In the third episode of the the animated series’ 29th season, titled “You Like That On Your Face,” the group of regular characters gets stuck inside of Sephora’s “Backrooms” while looking for anti-aging products, which is a double hit satirizing impossible beauty standards as well as one of the year’s biggest horror movies.
Kyle’s younger brother is then involved in a live-streamed aura battle — spewed with Gen Z slang like “mogging,” “maxxing” and “cringe” — with a schoolmate named Chase Chadwick who looks undeniably like controversial influencer Clavicular.

Although the episode strayed from jokes about Donald Trump, viewers seemed to love the comedy show’s takes on current internet trends.
“Holy s*** this new South Park episode was actually the best episode in like a decade, genuinely never thought they would make something that good again,” one fan wrote on X. “Instant classic in my opinion.”
Another added: “Recent South Park episodes haven't been as good as past ones because reality is so much crazier than whatever Matt [Stone] or Trey [Parker] can come up with but the most recent episode was hilarious.”
Others agreed that it was the “best episode of this season so far,” with one writing, “Possibly the best episode in a decade, despite all the silly lingo.”
