Apr 16, 2018 at 11:31 comment added phantom42 By policy, works that have occasional sf/f elements are considered on-topic. If you don't consider works with things like aliens, crab people, talking poo, genetically altered animals, giant monsters, and gods who live amongst people, all in their everyday world (not in special non-canon episodes like the Simpsons), as SF/F, we've just got fundamentally different definitions of SF/F that we're never going to agree on.
Apr 16, 2018 at 6:08 comment added Edlothiad @phantom42 it's not an SF/F work, as the above answer says it's a mixed bag of tropes in which SF/F is included.
Apr 14, 2018 at 15:42 comment added Valorum @phantom42 - I disagree with that being the appropriate policy. The show isn't largely on-topic with some off-topic elements, it's largely off-topic with some on-topic elements.
Apr 14, 2018 at 15:41 comment added phantom42 The relevant policy here is from How should we handle questions that are about non-SF/F elements in a SF/F work?. Mike's answer with a net +27 score says that if the work is on-topic, all questions about the work are on-topic. Cartman's favorite flavor may be a boring, uninteresting question, but it's fair game.
