They've made fun of Islam so many times, it is hard to count.How about the Big "M" himself--Muhammad? Where's the episode depicting Muhammad rooting in a pigsty?

I've always seen Terance and Phillip as a spoof of Beavis and Butthead. I have always thought Terrance and Phillip were a spoof of Wayne and Shuster--the only Canadian comedy team in the last 50 years.

The truth is, Islam was never truly mocked. The portrayal of Mohammed was gentle and respectful (by SP standards). They conceded that the Afghan kids "might have a point" in hating America and have not attacked Islam specifically. They hit Scientology worst, then Mormanism. They've attacked most aspects of Christianity although they haven'd attacked the tenants of it as being foolish and ripe for ridicule.
The funny thing is, I wouldn't want them to go after Islam the way they went after Mormonism and Scientology. I thought the Scientology thing was derivative of the Mormon episode and I don't want to see it again applied to Islam. I'll still laugh, I'm sure, but I want them to be original.

Interesting... Could be, I'm not familiar with them.

The portrayal of Mohammed was gentle and respectful (by SP standards).Or cowardly and snivelling, depending on your point of view.

I'm sure Matt and Trey will deal with the "Chef matter" in the show somehow. I'm not sure what it might be, but I'm sure of one thing: It should not be viewed by anyone.
It'll be vile and wrong and really, really funny.

"Hmmm. Who would have made him quit? I wonder who...Could it be...THETAN????"
I heard he was in trouble with the IRS and didn't have time for South Park any more...someone said he was being audited.

"And you don't see the irony of using a censored expletive to say SP is crude? That's the funny part."
_____________________________
Oh I see it, and your pic is clever.
Still, SP is crude adolescent humor...the fact that I am also crude does not change that fact. However, I admit I need to work on it....and that crude not a good thing. I have many other flaws that need work too.
FWIW...I am FAR less crude than I was 10 years ago....and that improvement has come from admitting that I need to work on it and actually working on it.
10 years ago I would have LOVED SP, and would have been hammering away like all the other SP fans on this site.

How about the Big "M" himself--Muhammad? Where's the episode depicting Muhammad rooting in a pigsty? I am getting really tired of posting this to people who have never watched the show.
Muhammad. Not rooting in a pig sty, but rather, standing next to Jesus as one of the "Super Best Friends" - a takeoff on the SuperFriends cartoon of my childhood. They did this a few seasons ago, before showing Muhamad in a cartoon was considered some kind of litmus test for whether a comedian had "guts".
You want to portray him in a pig sty? Think that'd be funny? Get your own show. As for Matt and Trey, they have their own way of looking at things, and have a pretty good track record for finding what's funny about people. They'd probably find more humor in YOU daring them to draw Muhammad than any drawing of Muhammad ever would have.
At least I think you're pretty funny.

Oh, I think Muhammad would make for a serious of hilarious episodes.
Parker and pal are scared sh*tless to do it.
To: AmishDude
I'd say they don't really "go after" religion itself, but rather they go after the *followers* of various religions. They've never really made fun of Christianity itself, for example, but have absolutely skewered some of the nutty things that happen in its name.
The Scientology episode may be a little different, if only because they are *so* asking for it. I mean... really... Scientology *demands* ridicule. It's not like its a "real" religion or anthing. :-)

Matt and Trey only insult easy targets that won't and can't strike back. Don't lecture me on their supposed fearlessness.
