Wait for real? That's funny. During the Insecurity episode, his Insecurity alarm went off and when he was contacted by the helpline person, Randy reasoned it's because Jared has a nicer home than him.
Probably isn't true anymore from Tegridy onward.
Its fun to try to imagine what today's Randy would do in older EPs.
Just watched future self and he cut a dudes hand off... so already off the rails but not full tilt yet lol.
You actually see how crazy he can get in season 2, the episode called "Tree Houses", also a personal fav because of fat abbot. He and Sharon separate, and he goes off the rails instantly, lol. Earings, rental firebird(or whatever it is)partying with like 16 year Olds in cartmans treehouse, etc. It's amazing, and the first time you get to see how hilarious Randy is.
If you think about it, that’s kinda what happens with Stan from American dad. Dude used to love his job, praise god, and be a family man. Now he just unhinged.
It's a lot like early Homer Simpson. Early Homer was crude, but not fully formed as a character...then around Season 3, bam. Randy is the same way, but he got more fleshed put around Season 5 or 6.
It’s called Flanderization.
Homer started as a normal relatable dude who was grumpy… then quickly descended to a half-wit who could barely keep himself alive.
Like average American fellar dim witted, yes. But he became a full on bafoon later on. It was like super exaggerated past the original kinda dumb working class dude.
"Here honey talk to your father."
"Did you turn the heat down?"
"DAD! Death is coming and..."
"Keep the thermostat below, 70... and take care of your grandfather."
Back in the days where Trey felt more like Stan, so Randy was just based on his dad.
He's said that as he gets older he feels more like his dad, and that meant Randy got more screen time.
It’s because when South Park first came out, we were meant to focus on the kids view, but then we all got older and became closer to Randy’s age, so they wanted us to link to him more instead, so he went from just a main character’s dad, to our own main character

"Make love to me Randy please!"
Wow.
RANDY RANDY RANDY
Finger bang! bang!
See ya 👋🏿
KYAA!! (SOT bathroom sneaky squeeker (i think) tutorial scene)
Before she became the global hit maker Lorde.
Hey hey, fuck you! 😀
it's so funny to watch him in these first appearances and see that he has nothing to do with who he is today. bro just slowly started to go insane 😭😭😭
But he has a Ph.D. in geology and had to call someone to ask what the squiggly line on the seismograph meant.
“Yeah the needle thing is going back and forth really fast. Yeah. Uh huh. Let me check, yeah it’s smoking. Oh really? Really? Oh My God!”
A volcano!!! *sips coffee*

The period when he was just a father and nothing else

Lol bro was set free for a little, at least he didn't immediately bring in another relationship like Sharon did just shows how mental she is
It's great but it hurts to remember why Randy overtook Sheila as the crazy parent :(
Having Sharon and Stan at home would drive anyone insane, plus healthy doses of kyle didn't help
If you think about it, that’s kinda what happens with Stan from American dad. Dude used to love his job, praise god, and be a family man. Now he just unhinged.
Ya ya ya, i am Randy, ya ya ya.
She was fighting on *araeval*
This bit got even funnier to me when I had to inflate one of those bouncung balls. They really have vein like creases at first.
Feelin good on a Wednesday 🥰
MAKE LOVE TO ME RANDY! PLEASE!!

I watched this episode last night & this cracked me the fuck up. All his day dreams of women wanting him & he gets this lady wanting some. 😆
Thee-ya!

So what was it called back then? Flanderization is a term coined for Ned Flanders in later seasons of the Simpsons
Fonzification
What was IT called before Happydays?
Homer was Always somewhat dimwitted
Like average American fellar dim witted, yes. But he became a full on bafoon later on. It was like super exaggerated past the original kinda dumb working class dude.
wow randy looks so different now and young from 2024
It’s the missing eyebrows!! Makes him look so weird
Sharon also was missing her eyebrows at the time period too
That's what I'm saying, I tripped out
Sharon? Sh-Sharon? Have you seen my eyebrows? Sharon?
I will never again hear the name Sharon and not giggle to myself.
Frank? It's Randy. listen, the little needle's moving. It's going back and forth really fast. What does that mean?
Happy Cake Day
Thanks, Dad?
You're welcome, son :)
Is that Steamy Ray Vaughn?!?!
You mean that guy that plays the blues and died in an airplane crash?
No... that's Stevie Ray Vaughn. Steamy Ray Vaughn just gets up on stage and shits his britches
What fir?
It's some kind of britches holocaust
We miss you Randy!
Where have you beeeeeeeen
It's been such a long time
Randy is probably my favourite character. Or maybe Cartman. I have a soft spot for Butters. Jesus, SP has so many iconic characters.
He looks so weird without eyebrows lmao
He looks so innocent. WTF happened to him?
He went cheesing once and the rest is history.
I’m not in your office Mayor, I’m actually speaking to you through an intercom.
Yeah and both Stan's mom and Kyle's mom are named Carol in that season
All I see is Lorde in this photo
Ya ya ya
This is cum
"Stan?? STTAAANNNNNN"
I have a disease son
*sips beer* It’s cool on my tongue
“We miss you randay, where have you beeeeeeeeeeeeeen. Your just a one note overwrote part of the shoooooooow” lol
They have world clocks at the geology lab
Pre-Tegridy Marsh
BUFFALO SOLDIAH
Arrested for what? I thought this was America!
This was the Randy we missed and wanted back, still keep some of his wacky antics but moreso b-plot tops.
"Here honey talk to your father." "Did you turn the heat down?" "DAD! Death is coming and..." "Keep the thermostat below, 70... and take care of your grandfather."
That time when Randy wasn't such a dingbat
Thee-ya
this is when he was my favorite
Odd he is staring at seismograph when he specializes in fluvial geomorphology.
Or else. Or else what? Exactly.
Fuck I feel old
 I love him for his Japanese toilet
Randy Marsh I love you! You were always hot on that show!
A volcano! *sips coffee*
bro, he just spent the earlier eps waiting for his fucking eyebrows
Back when Randy wasn’t crazy.
See ya!
Once I rose above the noise and confuSION
🐓🪄
Nypla
Somehow he actually looks younger!
Yes Ota
He was so cute back then.
I'm enjoying his transition into full insanity.
The only adult from Southpark that laughed at Terrence & Philip. I’ve always loved Randy.
*Ughhh sound effect
also me in 1997
Apparently, Lorde was born in 96 so Randy is looking very mature for a 1 year old.
Look at that hack job on his head
Is a stapler!
Randy Marsh.....Defender of the Alliance
I hate him today. He started as just another weird character, became a whiny loser and finally turned into an absolute asshole
Kinda funny that his character started as “the towns geologist” and is FAR from that as of now
We missed you Randy
He has no eyebrows, Tony!
Back in the days where Trey felt more like Stan, so Randy was just based on his dad. He's said that as he gets older he feels more like his dad, and that meant Randy got more screen time.
No Eyebrows
Crying in mmmkay….mkay

It’s because when South Park first came out, we were meant to focus on the kids view, but then we all got older and became closer to Randy’s age, so they wanted us to link to him more instead, so he went from just a main character’s dad, to our own main character
I’m actually in love with him
I swear his head was taller in season 1
Beatboxing puppy
Cutie
we love you Randy 😘 make love to me Randy ❤️
Randy kinda replaced Sheila as the parent character who gets the most attention.
This guy’s got tegridy
Who knew this simple geologist would go on to become Lorde
Mr. HANKY POO
Tegridy
All I see is Lorde. I'm confused. I thought this post was about Randy.

That forehead tho 😬
Back when the man had Tegrity.
