South Park (1997)

There is not really much to say about South Park because everyone already knows everything about it. It has become a classic to everyone that watches it. And frankly I think it is a great show. The geniuses: Trey Parker and Matt Stone put together a very funny television show. My favorite is probably Cartman, Stan, or Kyle. I highly enjoy every character though. The things that happen in this show, are hysterical, and fun to watch over and over again. What a great show.

Southpark was bad; it was crude, it relied on fart jokes and poos to make its humour; at this point everybody left it and tarred it for life. After season 3 however, it did a u-turn. Matt and Tray themselves have admitted they felt the need to make a more relevant, intelligent and satirical humour. Now in its 11th series, South Park is one of the funniest, and often most intelligent programmes on television. The average show only takes a week to make so it stays much more relevant and can deliver up to date satire at the drop of a hat. Everything has evolved so much about the series now; that it is hardly recognisable as the same show in its early seasons. If you wrote SP off back in the day, you have to give it a chance again....you might be pleasantly surprised. ...Read more

When South Park was first released it was just being dubbed as a "naughty cartoon" that had swear words and little point to it. This is not at all the case and sadly too many people are false in thinking it is. I remember watching it as a young teen and thinking it was great with all the violence and swearing etc, and i spose i never really got it, because it IS for adults. Now im older i watch it and find a whole new level to it. The past 4 seasons have been absolutely brilliant, each episode having some kind of political underlay or some form of social/topical issue with a moral story/outcome at the end. It also deals with controversial issues in a hilarious fashion and gives a well thought out view on the argument at hand. Now days people who seem to rate this show 1 star etc are jus...Read more

The South Park formula: 1. Take a controversial political and/or social issue... 2. Exaggerate to absurdity both the liberal and conservative points of view on said issue... 3. ??? 4. Profit! It's cynical false equivocation masquerading as insightful commentary. The overarching political philosophy of the show is that the world would be a better place if everyone would just mind their own damned business. As such, anyone who cares about their community and actually tries to do something about it is mocked and ridiculed as an idiotic busybody, at best. That's not to say the show isn't entertaining- it is. The writing can be really quite clever at times, but the pox-on-both-their-houses politics are simpleminded and, ironically, smug....Read more

I've always had a rocky relationship with South Park. When I was a young lad when it first aired, I liked it for all the wrong reasons. Poo & Fart Jokes were too easy back then for any early teen to pass up. I then went through a(/my) period of hating this show because it was such a stereotype of the people I knew and hated. However, earlier this year I managed to watch episodes beyond the first 3 seasons and realised there was an actual message with each show. Politics and current issues wovern into the fabric of this satirical and cult classic masterpiece. It still has a reliance on, as I dubbed it, 'w*nker humour' but the show has greater depths and there is usually a lot to learn from the morals of the stories. Most of the time, I read up on the events and issues brought forward ...Read more
