NBC - The Tonight Show ^ | October 5, 2004

[HitmanLV]

I gotta draw the line at Fred MacMurray! ;-)

[durasell]

The cartoon takes on the concept of political correctness and has an air of the taboo about it. Much of its humor depends on shock value.

Tune in to hear: Mark Knopfler

[Oztrich Boy]

They have actually admitted to being Republicans in public of all places.

Well not actually/just in public.

It was on stage at the Sundance Film festival.

You know sometimes I really wish Trey & Matt would make if clear to people that they are not Dem-liberals.

[durasell]

They also took LSD and attended the Academy Awards in dresses.

[flashbunny]

And you're an ignorant coot who trolls on and on about a show you've never even seen.

[Dead Corpse]

Dang it. I HATE Chin Head. But now I'm gonna have to tune in.

Maybe if I have a couple drinks first...

[Rise of South Park Republicans]

You know sometimes I really wish Trey & Matt would make if clear to people that they are not Dem-liberals.

How clear to do you have to be when you have announced it in public and you have South Park that has ripped libs apart for 7 years now. People started realizing this from just actually watching the show way before Trey & Matt even declared themselves Republicans.

Listen to the DVD commentary.

But I do agree with you. Maybe they should. I would like to see it happen just so I could come on here and post it to prove O.C. wrong. Anyway, good post

[Oztrich Boy]

Sorry I was misunderstood. I don't do sarcasm tags (trust the tagline)

[Gumption]

Is that all it takes for you to respect someone? Today, Republicans come in all shapes and sizes. You got some who like to hang out in log cabins, some who are huckster televangelists and the list goes on. Parker and Stoned are in it for one thing. Themselves. If they can convince you to pay your ten bucks at the theater, they'll say whatever you want to hear. The perfect definition of the libertine businessman.

Besides, celebrities love being caricatured in their little cartoons. It maines that they are still in the public eye. It's a small segment of the South Park viewers who pick up on the political references. Not because the scripts are subtle, but because the typical South Park patron is functionally illiterate.

What?

[Gumption]

is every fan of that show a stoner or something?

No.

[Rise of South Park Republicans]

is every fan of that show a stoner or something?

That is like saying..All South Park haters are three degrees colder than a stiff.

[O.C. - Old Cracker]

Could you speak up, sonny, my hearing aid is on the fritz.

[skinkinthegrass]

I might tune in for Dennis Miller though. Hopefully he'll be the first guest.

Dennis Miller was great..."Bush gets out of Bed, puts his two feet on the floor, scratch his b****s...says "lets' kill terrorists."...sKERRY got "firebombed".

[skinkinthegrass]

..my hearing aid is on the fritz.

I think you would have gotten an earful on Leno tonight...Dennis Miller was fanatic ...Parker/Stone were very funny...puppet sex/lemon pledge jokes...hehehe.

[flashbunny]

Dennis was great in the first segment...nailed john kerry at summed up bush's that got huge cheers- I'll rewind the tape and try to post it here.

[skinkinthegrass]

I'll rewind the tape and try to post it here.

PING Me please...Dennis Miller was really on FIRE last night, Leno was shocked/dumbfounded....the people in the audience were Cheering Loudly!!!! HORAH!!! life is good this Wednesday morn. :))

[O.C. - Old Cracker]

I taped the Tonight Show because one of you had mentioned that the two South Punks would be on. Dennis Miller made a few good zingers toward Kerry/Edwards, albeit some were unnecessarily vulgar. As for the South Park twins, Parker and Stoned, what I saw were two thirty+ year old males who jumped around like little boys talking about their new puppet show. Their behavior is indicative of a generation of males who, for the most, hope that one day a strong female will come along and sweep them off their feet. Or perhaps in their case, they're not looking to join with a female, I can't tell. They've got the androgynous nerd look down pat.

[nonliberal]

Better watch what you tell OC to score. I hear there is some spiked Geritol going around.

[Camel Joe]

Look, just because you don't like them it gives you no right to insult me or anyone else here. The only reason I watch at my age is for the political and not very subtle references. As for being functionally illiterate you could use the spell check feature yourself. Sorry if they don't fit your idea of a Republican, I guess Trent Lott is more to your liking.

[Camel Joe]

Actually I'm a well educated and well paid professional with, and this is a bonus, a sense of humor.
