South Park and Stem Cells (May 14)

South Park | 5/15 | me

Did anybody catch South Park last night? I caught the last 10 minutes of it and was wondering if anyone saw the whole thing. I believe the episode was about the two crippled kids joining up with the "Crips" gang. That part was funny, but the thing that really got me was the subplot, where Christopher Reeves was trying to rule the world, and he got his strength thru eating fetuses! He would get deliveries of fresh fetuses and just devour them. He also joined forces with Saddam Hussein, Osama, and other evil people. At the end, Gene Hackman stopped Chris and gave a lecture as to why stem-cell research is wrong. I thought it was outstanding!

I'm not sure if they are still as popular as they were before with the younger crowd, but it makes me happy to know that Trey and Matt are presenting this kind of stuff in such an original and funny way.

South Park's creators, Matt Stone and Trey Parker, are avowed Republicans. Many if not most of their stories have a Republican-friendly theme. One of the episodes mocked the ridiculousness of the Florida recounts in 2000.

This episode originally aired March 26, and now the latest batch of seven episodes from this new season are being rerun. Great episode.

"I mean, come on..."

Note: next batch of new South Park episodes will air beginning October 22.
