"South Park" becomes a gem

I wonder if the CC execs got to vote at Sundance for the Dakota Fanning rape scene?

Her performance in "War of the Worlds" was enough to make me never want to see her in a movie again. There's just something about her that really annoys me.

your criticism hasn't been so much about South Park, but of the fans themselves, not quite getting into personal attacks, but coming close

There's no question that on this thread my initial statement was about the fans of the show. However, it has always been my intention on South Park threads to stay away from personal insults. If I've insulted you in a previous thread, I'm very sorry about that. I have tried very hard to not insult people simply because they like a show that bases its humor on fart jokes and portrays filthy-mouthed elementary school students.

I just don't understand why adults would spend their time watching a juvenile cartoon. Talk all you want about the "political satire" ... but where's the political satire in kids having lice? Why the nasty, personal attack on Angelina Jolie?

Or was she somehow representative of liberals and the fly landing on her crotch with the lice was actually incisive political satire that I "just don't get"?

Why the nasty, personal attack on Angelina Jolie?

Only they know for sure... Maybe she was rude to them at a party. :~)

What has happened to your tagline?
