Southpark is brillant satire and mocks left-wing ideas and people non-stop. I don't know why you would call it filth.
It may be brilliant satire to punks. It's trash to folks who've grown up.
Because it uses language not heard on Leave it to Beaver and Father Knows Best.
It does tend to be rather stupid sometimes. But yes, they do skewer liberals constantly on that show.
Here's why I call it "filth."
Yup. Nothing says "comedy" like conspiring have another kid eat his parents in a bowl of chili. Eric Cartman...what a guy. Almost as great a guy as Nathaniel Bar-Jonah'
Scott Tenorman: [setting his plate before Cartman] Alright, I guess we should taste each other's chili, huh?
Eric Cartman: [inspecting the dish] Huh, this chili looks pretty good. Weh, here's mine. [hands his plate to Scott, who takes it to his end of the table and starts eating]
Scott: Mmm. Ah, I don't know. Your chili is pretty good, Cartman, but I think mine is better. Try it.
Cartman: Alright. [takes the dish and starts eating. Both boys munch away for a few moments] Hey, this is great! [Stan and Kyle stifle giggles]
Scott: Eh, it's a special recipe
Cartman: [begins to wolf down the food] Gawh, this is really good, Scott!
Scott: I'm glad you like it so much, because now that you're almost finished, I have some'in' to tell you.
Cartman: What? You mean about how you put pubes in your chili? [Everyone at Scott's end of the table is shocked, even Scott, at this accusation]
Scott: What?!
Cartman: Yehes, I'm afraid this isn't your chili, Scott. I switched it with Chef's. [Chef looks like he's been used] It's delicious, Chef. I hadn't planned on that. What I did plan on, however, was that my friends, Stan and Kyle, would betray me and warn you that the Chili Con Carnival was a trap. [Stan and Kyle are stunned] I assumed that they would tell you that I had trained Denkins' pony to bite off your weiner. What they didn't tell you was that Denkins is a crazy redneck who shoots trespassers on sight. Knowing that you would try and do somethng to the pony, I warned Mr. Denkins that violent pony killers were in the area. [A shot of Cartman telling Denkins of such a thing. Denkins is armed] I also know that you wouldn't go yourself, for fear of having your weiner bitten off. You would most likely send your parents. [A shot of Scott talking with his parents] And, I'm afraid that when Mr. Denkins spotted them on his property, he shot and killed both your parents. [The Tenormans are in the corral to rescue the "starving" pony, but upon seeing Mr. Tenorman's lit flashlight, Mr. Denkins fires at them, and they go down]
Mr. Denkins: [looks of horror surround him] Well, they was trespassin' and I was protectin' myself. I, I have my rights.
Scott: My... mom and dad are... dead? [A shot of Officer Barbrady taking a report from Denkins]
Cartman: I came just in time to see Mr. Denkins giving his report to Officer Barbrady. And of course, to steal the bodies... [A shot of Cartman arriving, seeing Denkins and Barbrady, and pulling the bodies away. The pony munches at some grass] After a night with the hacksaw, I was all ready to put on my Chili Con Carnival, so that I could tell you personally about your parents' demise! And of course, feed you your chili. [more faces of horror behnd Cartman] Do you like it? Do you like it, Scott? [A gleefully evil look comes over Cartman] I call it, "Mr. & Mrs. Tenorman Chili."
Scott: [looks at Cartman for a while, realizing what's just happened] Oh my God! [gagging, he fishes through the plate and finds his mom's wedding ring, still on her finger. He tosses it away] Oh my God!! [vomits off to the side]
Cartman: [leaping up on the table and sings] Nyahnyahnyahnyah nyah nyah! I made you eat your parents! Nyahnyahnyahnyah nyah nyah! [Stan and Kyle are way stunned]
Stan: Jesus Christ, dude!
What's that? You don't think the second story is funny?
Nathan, age 43, according to news reports, has an extensive history of extremely violent sexual crimes involving young boys dating back nearly 30 years, but because of plea bargaining arrangements he managed to avoid serving much time in prison for his activities. However, he did spend about 12 years in a Massachusetts mental hospital for dangerous sex offenders for the attempted murder of two teenage boys. Upon obtaining a release from his doctors in 1991, Nathan moved to Montana to be with his mother. The psychologists said he was cured, despite his admission of continuing to fantasize about eating human flesh.Nathan usually impersonated a police officer to abduct his young prey, and is suspected of cooking the remains of one victim, a 10-year-old boy, into a pot pie and serving it to neighbors shortly after the boy disappeared while walking to school on February 6, 1996.
Police investigators discovered, while searching his home, notes written in a code which was later deciphered by the FBI as a recipe for "little boy stew." Another encrypted entry was titled, "Dinner is served on the patio with roasted child." The neighbors have admitted that they thought the meat tasted strange.
When the neighbors quizzed Nathan about the "funny tasting" meat, he claimed to have gone hunting and shot a deer. A detailed examination of his financial records disclosed that he had deviated from his typical shopping habits, and had not been to the grocery store for almost a month after one youngster vanished.
Well, why the heck not? It's got the same big payoff of the above-referenced South Park episode -- a guy kills innocent people who never hurt anybody, and cooks them in a meal that he serves to neighbors.
Now, don't go telling me that Nathaniel Bar-Jonah isn't a laff riot just like Cartman. Don'tcha have a sense of humor???? :) ;) :D
