This episode could have been SOOOOO much funnier. The talking Minge and Gary were worth a chuckle but towards the end of the episode I was ready for Mencia to come on. Felt like Matt and Trey milked the one frame (Oprah's pants) ,and the comedy suffered towards the end as they dragged out the scene. There was so much material on the Oprah cult that they could have gone after...
"This episode could have been SOOOOO much funnier"
I agree... I was wondering if, since this whole Oprah debacle happened before the Muslim cartoon thing, if maybe this particular episode was shelved for a time (because it just wasn't that funny) only to be brought out now by CC following Matt & Trey's insubordination...
Wow. Did that make sense?
Maybe M&T are so busy on a blockbuster CC-bashing episode, they decided to run a shelved episode.
There. That makes more sense. I think. Didn't check the speeling.
I didn't like it either. My big problem is that the three principle characters on this episode were a towel, a vagina, and a rectum. Yeah, I know about Mr.Hankey, but he was always just one character among many. The other characters in those episodes were actual people.
What's next, an episode about a sock, a tampon, and a testicle?
Not to mention that none of the kids were in this episode. A grievous omission.
Maybe they're just doing comedy, and all shows don't strike all people as the best ever.
I really don't think Matt and Trey are gonna be on this big vendetta against CC. They had a point, they made it, some people loved it, some people hated it, just another day at work for them. They probably get censored for content every episode. It's just part of life.
