I hope all the South Park fans got to see the new episode on Wednesday.

I thought the cuts to 'anime' style were great.

I grimaced when the boys told Kenny to use his ninja star, I knew it would be bad, but had no idea how bad.

I was totally faked out at the ending. I was expecting Cartman to get away with using his power of 'invisibility'.

The power of invisibility was one of the funniest things in the history of television.

They also do a great job imitating Japanimation. The Chinpokemon episode is a true masterpiece.

Holy cow, was that ever funny! Cartman inventing powers was the best! "I can see into the future too, but much better than Kyle. Let me try.". I was rolling.

I just recently came back to Southpark after leaving because I felt like they were just trying too hard. Now it's gotten back to where it used to be, which is just plain funny.

Sorry guys, I have a Tivo, which has allowed me to see every single episode ever of South Park. The newest episode just wasn't funny, and was a major let down for me. It's kind of like when Ian Fleming stopped writing James Bond or Frank L. Baum stopped writing the Oz Books. The writers who tried to take their place and continue the series just couldn't do it. The previous season was their best ever, IMHO. I wonder if the origional guys are even writing it anymore.

I missed it, but I hope to catch it if they rebroadcast it this weekend. SP is a fantastic show.

Great epsiode Wednesday night! The anime cuts were awesome. What's funny is, if it weren't a spoof, the anime would be some of the best I've ever seen. Another notable about Wednesday nights epsiode: Kenny didn't die.

The payoff was lame - once he tried to sneak across the stage, you knew where they were going with the "moral" of the story.

Juxtaposing boob-tube violence with Janet Jackson's sad-looking appendage of the same name veers too closely to a straw man (or woman) to be appreciated on the same level as SP501 "Scot Tenoman Must Die" (referenced in the article).

What is remarkable is that South Park has managed to stay out of the FCC frame while Stern and B.L. Sponge take the ca$h hit for dealing the same dirt to the same demographic.

Cartman's best lines ever:

"Democrats piss me off!"

When he went to the abortion clinic and said: "I'd like a living thing sucked out of me, please."

I totally lost it when Cartman said he had a "wardrobe malfunction" to explain the loss of his "power of invisibility". Way funny!!!

I think the most political the show ever got was the episode "Krazy Kripples" with Christopher Reeve sucking the stem cells out of fetuses to keep up his strength. Pretty visual, that.

It's sad when a vulgar, offensive, poorly-animated show about some grade school kids often has the most insightful social commentary and satire on TV. And BLU was the most socially relevant movie I saw that year.

O.K., I'm not reading anymore, I don't want to spoil it when I catch the rerun. :)
