The eighteenth season of the American animated sitcom South Park premiered on Comedy Central on September 24, 2014 with "Go Fund Yourself", and with "#HappyHolograms" ended on December 10, 2014, with a total of ten episodes.[1] The A.V. Club noted early in this season how episodes experimented with episode-to-episode continuity, where the episodes "explore the consequences of the boys' actions [week to week], allowing the plots to be motivated in part by their attempts to dig themselves out of a hole".[2] The season featured serial elements and recurring story lines.[3]
