SOUTH PARK

[Reply #80 on:]

I'm all psyched up for the new episodes!  Yesterday I saw a preview for tonight's episode, and it looks like it's gonna be a great one!

Edit:  TOTPD!  (And I only found out a few days ago what those letters stood for!)

[Reply #81 on:]

I just saw tonight's episode.  It was pretty good.  The crab people cracked me up.  They make such bad looking creatures, it just makes them even funnier.

[Reply #82 on:]

Best. Ep. EVER!

[Reply #83 on:]

Really? Hurrah, I can't wait to get my hands on that episode! Expect an official comment in a few days...

[Reply #84 on:]

"I should have known, they tried this before with 'The Jeffersons'!"

XD season six quality stuff here.

[Reply #85 on:]

Uh, oh.  I'll admit it right now, I didn't like this episode.  It was really funny at first, with everyone acting really gay.  But, what the hell was that thing with the crab people?  It felt like something you'd see in a little kiddie Saturday morning cartoon, not something you'd see in a South Park episode.  To me, it felt like Matt 'n Trey couldn't think of another way to end it.  I'm disappointed.  But, I guess you have to expect some bad episodes among all the really good ones in season seven.

[Reply #86 on:]

Really? I thought the crab people where halarious. Especially when they all gave Kyle a makeover. I guess I can see where you're coming from though, but you can basicaly say that for alot of episodes of South Park, just look at "It Hits The Fan", where a dragon comes to kill everyone because they wouldn't stop saying "Shit".

[Reply #87 on:]

He's right - South Park's full of immature creatures. The aliens from Cancelled, the lions from Here Comes The Neighbourhood, Towelie, etc. the list goes on.

[Reply #88 on:]

Craaaaaaab people... craaaaaab people.... taste like crabs, sound like people... Craaaaaaab people... craaaaaab people....

[Reply #89 on:]

The crab people were totally unexpected, but also very hilarious. This was a great episode, I just hope next week's can be as good.

[Reply #90 on:]

Kyle:  You'll never make me a metrosexual!!! 
Crabperson: Well then we'll just have to make you...crab people.
Crab People:  Craaab..people! Craaab..people!  Craaab..people!

And I can never get enough of Lemiwinks "The Gerbil King."

Luckily I did see that episode.  Red Man's Greed was my second favorite of this season, after the Cartman/Jennifer Lopez episode.  Just out of curosity, how long does it take to make a South Park episode.  Seems to me it's be very quick.  Red Man's greed made references to SARS.  That disease was in the news not too long before this episode aired.

It takes about a week if they hurry, I think the most topical was the Florda Election episode.

::edit::
The first of the new season was good, Made fun of the whole Quer-eye For the Straight Guy phenominal. Garrison and mister Slave were not happy.

[Reply #92 on:]

Garrison: Get 'em Mr. Slave!
(Mr. Slave swings down on a rope while holdng a large machine gun and crashes trhough the building's window, and ends up lying bloodied on the floor)
Mr. Slave: Jesusth Christh...

A great start for what I expect to be a great season.

Funny you mentioned that episode.  I was thinking of that episode as I was typing up my review of the gay episode.  I thought that It Hits the Fan was an absolutely hilarious episode, until the end with that curse word and dragon stuff.  Again, that part felt to me like Matt 'n Trey couldn't think of a better way to end it.  This and the Crab people thing I feel are just totally out of place in the series.  I also thought that the lions part in Here Comes the Neighborhood was also really lame.  I don't have a problem with Towlie and the aliens though, for whatever reason.  I think they're both really funny.

[Reply #94 on:]

why do people get so upset at south parks silliness,matt and trey,know there lazy, and dont care thats why its brilliant,
getting annoyed over these things is about as pathetic as cheering when characters on friends annonce there getting married or whatever

I actually believe the most topical was the "Quintuplets" episode parodying Elian Gonzales.  I remember reading in the paper at the time that Trey and Matt stayed up all weekend to get that show written and produced in time to air it the week after the FBI (or CIA, or whoever) took Elian back to Cuba.

I think they were just supposed to be ridicules, which is why I find it funny. The Lion was a parody from the "Rudolph The Red Nosed Reindeer Movie" making fun of the king of the island of misfit toys.

[Reply #97 on:]

Oh, I didn't know that!  I had no idea that something was being parodied.

[Reply #98 on:]

I groaned at first when I saw the crab people, but by the end of the show I saw their purpose. For one, it prevented everyone in town from getting thrown in jail for killing the cast of Queer Eye. Secondly, it gave reason for a group of people to be motivated to make the whole world turn metrosexual. It also allowed for that line about the Jeffersons that made me pee my pants. And the taste like crabs, sound like people line.

It was definitly a quality episode over all. I especially got a kick out of the latin trend thing.

It wasn't the first episode of the new season, it was the 8th episode of Season 7.

Also, I'd have to say the most topical episode would either be I'm A Little Bit Country (war protests) or Red Man's Greed (SARS).

[Reply #100 on:]

I saw the Lemmiwinks episode earlier this year (Take it Mr Slave) god that's so f**ked up that it's hilarious....

Ooooohhh....Jesus christ....! 

[Reply #101 on:]

Don't forget season 7 starts on the Comedy Network (In Canada) with "Fat Butt and Pancake Head" this Friday. Unless the Comedy Network fudged up with the ad (They played the season 6 ad a week early last year).

*Edit* Oh and southparkstudios.com has the new episode thingy up:
----------------------------------
Christian Rock Hard
Cartman, Butters and Token rocket to the top of the Christian rock charts with their own messages of faith in an all-new episode, entitled “Christian Rock Hard.” When the other boys kick Cartman out of their band, Cartman pulls his own group together to make music for Jesus. Meanwhile, Stan, Kyle and Kenny are arrested for downloading music from the Internet. (Title subject to change)
-----------------------------------------

Sounds awsome 

[Reply #102 on:]

Awesome!  Well, we can review the new episode after it gets shown this Wednesday!

[Reply #103 on:]

awesome to the max
well thats how i would describe red mans greed which i just saw, up to the usual high standard,
loved the idea of alex

[Reply #104 on:]

Damnit, I still haven't seen South Park Is Gay yet, and they're already bringing out more! Sounds terrific though, can't wait to see Trey Parker's sattire of the music industry. Should be interesting, considering that he's a big supporter of both music and downloading.

On a side note, the 100th episode airs on Monday at 8:30pm on SBS next week in Australia!

[Reply #105 on:]

So, what did everybody think about yesterday's episode?  I thought it was absolutely wonderful!  It was so funny, and such a huge improvement over the gay episode.  Everything was so funny about it and fit together so well.  One of my favorite parts was when Cartman was attempting to shoot an album cover.  Also, the criticizing of the music industry's attitude towards downloading and the amount of money these singers get paid was very funny, and was also much appreciated.  The ending was also a riot.  Cartman was acting like typical Cartman....he did all that just to get back at Kyle.  Also, it was hilarious at the end when Cartman finally "got what he deserved".  What a great episode!  Definently one of the best of season seven.

[Reply #106 on:]

I thought it was awesome, but I feel dirty for liking it, like I should go to confession or something.  Don't get me wrong, I'm not at all offended, especially not by the (entirely merited as well as perfectly pulled off) spoof of Christian rock, it's the more and more obviously homoerotic bent of Cartman's songs about Jesus.  It snuck up on me.  I just don't know what to think of "I want to get down on my knees and start pleasing Jesus."

Also, Token playing the bass was awesome, and Butters' last line was his best ever, but it means his character has nowhere else to go.

[Reply #107 on:]

Heh, I loved it, but then again there are only like 3 episodes of Southpark that I don't like. Cartman getting his ass whomped at the end was awsome, but the best parts were the raid on the house when the boys downloaded the music and the cop explianing why downloading music was wrong (Poor Master P now he can't buy his son an island in the tropics).   

*Edit* oh and there is a trailer for next week's episode at http:/www.southparkx.net, seems to be about old people not being able to drive and going on a rampage because of it.

And that's why I love it.

Am I the only one who think Cartman has a pretty decent singing voice?

[Reply #112 on:]

I rolled off my sofa and cried when Cartman said that everyone knows Christian music is the stupidest, easiest music in the world to make. Or something to that effect. And then I cried some more from the song about dropping to your knees and pleasing Jesus. And the band called MOOP. MOOP!!! What a name. These episodes have been pure quality.

If you really are a christian, then I wouldn't recommend doing that

[Reply #114 on:]

I didn't find it too offensive. I thought the lyrics were hilarious. Explain to me what's offensive about them. I want to know in great depth about getting on my knees and feeling Jesus' salvation all over my face.
Carefully explain to me how this is offensive and how you believe this scenario would happen.

[Reply #115 on:]

Cartman was obviously talking about getting on his knees and praying, and then feeling the light of God shining on his face. Jeez Slurm Guy you sure are dirty minded.

[Reply #116 on:]

Jesus, lighten the hell up, Slurm Guy. They rip on the Jews more than anyone, and I'm not offended.

[Reply #117 on:]

Hey, I'm just saying, you know. You could go to hell twice just for watching that episode.

[Reply #118 on:]

If it offended you that much, for the love of God don't watch "Red Seligh Down".

*Edit* Oh I'm not very religous or anything, but by you saying people could goto hell by watching it, aren't you yourself commiting a sin according to the Bible? "Judge not lest ye be judged"? 

[Reply #119 on:]

"i'm super! Thanks for asking, and dont you think i look good in this hat!"
"I'M SORRY! mr cripple" hehe, that song made me chuckle
