I seriously doubt you are going to have a significant overlap between South Park and The Passion dvd buyers.

Me!

What do you have against the National Association of Marlon Brando Look-Alikes?

[antiRepublicrat]

Damn, you beat me.

I've made brief visits to South Park lately and note that it has become highly political (read that political left).

You're not watching it very often, then. While they make fun of religion (and in particular, Mel Gibson and Mormons), their biggests attacks are saved for the left - people (Streisand, Reiner, etc.) and issues (organizations the ACLU typically protects, the smoking ban, government infringement in general, etc.).

South Park lately and note that it has become highly political (read that political left).

Ah, you need to start actually watching South Park from beginning to end. It is political, with a very anti-liberal position.

[Phantom Lord]

The mormon episode was on last night. I stayed up to watch the rerun of it as well!

Dumb dumb dumb dumb dumb

I am waiting for the release of Team America, it might actually get me back in a theater after 15 + years, then again it might not.

If it doesn't I'll just blame it on canada

[davisfh]

OK. I'll give it another look. Perhaps I just saw a
few out of context scenes. Thanx.

Yes, They hate Conservatives. BUT THEY REALLY HATE LIBERALS......lol....

[Phantom Lord]

There are shots at conservatives. But at the end of the episode, its the liberals who are shown to be fools.

Ever see the Janet Reno Easter Bunny episode? It was put together in 3 days and parodies the Jack Booted thugs taking Elian.

Or the meteor shower episode that parodies Waco?

Cartman's silly hate crime?

Sexual Harrasment Panda?

[StoneColdGOP]

Passion of the Jew bump...

[Naspino]

I've made brief visits to South Park lately and note that it has become highly political (read that political left).

I would not agree that they lean heavily to the left. I think they lean to the right but have a distate of religion.

[Bella_Bru]

Interesting. I have never watched it (well I tried) but a FR yesterday said it was critical of liberal positions.

They are very critical of liberals, but they have fun with the Prude Patrol too.

[Phantom Lord]

Trey or Matt, whichever does Cartman's voice said his lifes dream is to debate a liberal on Crossfire so he can call them a "f**king liar" in Cartman's voice.

[ABG(anybody but Gore)]

I've made brief visits to South Park lately and note that it has become highly political (read that political left).

Trey Parker and Matt Stone may be a lot of things, but one thing they aren't is leftist. They love to skewer the left, and they do a very good job of it. One of my favorites was the Janet Reno episode that just nailed her to the wall three days after the Elian Gonzales mess. And they didn't pull any punches last year when they did one of the funniest episodes ever on Ron Reagan and the left's new favorite wedge issue: stem cell research.

[Akira]

Yeah, my wife and I watched it as well. Smart smart smart smart smart. They sacrificed some humor in that one to simply tell the jaw-dropping story of Joseph Smith, but even wrapped it up with somewhat positive message at the end.

I loved the last statement from the Mormon kid to Stan (which of course made Cartman like him).

[longtermmemmory]

I used to enjoy southpark. no more.

They seem to have bought the PC hollyweird aganda hook line and sinker. (particularly with regards to attacking "the Passion")

[Behind Liberal Lines]

The 4th Season just came out on DVD. My fav is 'Cartman joins NAMBLA'. They really drive it home about NAMBLA being a sicko organization not some kind of 'special interest group'.

The 4th season also had the brilliant "rain forest" ep, right?

[Guvmint_Cheese]

I'm a huge South Park fan, but the Passion of the Jew episode is probably the only episode I don't like. I didn't quite understand why they had to make Mel Gibson look like a complete lunatic. If it was an allusion to his Lethal Weapon character, it was poorly done.

Otherwise, SOUTH PARK RULES!
