Example of Inspired - "Actually, Eric is still supposed to be grounded for trying to exterminate the Jews two weeks ago."

Actually, I've heard it's been getting a lot more popular in America for Season 8. The Passion Of The Jew got the show its highest ratings since Season 2, despite the fact that it was utter shit. I don't see why Mecha Streisand gets so much crap, though. Sure - it's as stupid as hell, but it had some damn funny moments, such as the Japanese guy that kept singing through the entire battle scene. Every season tends to have at least one incredibly stupid far-fetched episode created entirely for laughs. Seasons 1-3 had their fare share of them, although Mecha Streisand, Spooky Fish and Jackovasaurs seem to stand out as major ones. Season 4 had Trapper Keeper, Season 5 had Towelie, Season 6 had The New Terrance & Phillip Movie Trailer, Season 7 had Fat Butt & Pancake Head, and Season 8 has AWESOM-O... and I like every one of those episodes.

It's mixing critic on society in general, with satire, parody and sometimes just plain gross, limit-pushing obscenity. A successful combination, IMO. How many shows make you laugh AND think? The medium of low-quality animation is also a very smart choice. Imagine a gay orgy for instance , with realistic looking cartoon characters. It'd be way more shocking.

Pretty much just South Park and Futurama.

Hmm, well.. I'd say it's just a more focused craziness, now. Not as random.

Not crazy at all o.o I think he means monsters destroying the town backed by japanese music on a weekly basis, but those are all good examples.

I think i find the character centric episodes recently to be much funnier than others earlier in the series. Good Times With Weapons and Passion of the Jew beats Mecha-streisand anyday in my book.

i love when the people in Cartman's cult start chanting anti-semitic statements in German thinking that its Aramayic. Hilarious.

The only thing that came close to offending me is that in "Christian Rock Hard" at the end when Cartman says "F*ck Jesus" as few times. That was pretty bad, but it wasnt enough for me to get pissed off aboot it.

I think Passion of the Jew was 2nd best this season. I dont know why most people hate it.

I loved Good Times with Weapons. For a guy that hates Anime as much as I do, that episode was hilarious. Best of Season 8.

The cripple fight ruled. Funnier than every episode of Quads, which I find a decidedly dreary show. The best part is when Cartman bursts into the crowded church right in the middle of service, pauses for a second, and then: CRIPPLE FIGHT!!!!!!!!!!! and the church empties in like 5 seconds. Classic.
