Ah I can't wait for this fall for my favorite show to start up again! I have seen every episode of South Park at least twice. All the old seasons I've probably watched about five times. Trey Parker and Matt Stone have my exact sense of humor, and i mostly love how they will make fun of anyone and they just don't care. Kind of like how i mentioned in my last post about how stand-up comedians can say whatever they want and get away with it, I feel like Parker and Stone have really perfected that in comedy. South Park has made fun of so many different groups of people and celebrities and are still going with it. Parker and Stone have really pushed and pushed the boundaries of what is allowed. During the 1999 Oscars Parker and Stone dressed up as Jennifer Lopez and Gwyneth Paltrow high on Acid! That is just completely hilarious and describes the attitude of South Park.
Parker and Stone did have trouble with one episode that caused a lot of attention. South Park's episode "201" poked fun at the Muslim prophet Muhammad. Muslim extremist threatened Parker, Stone, and the network so the show was not shown in any repeats and is not available anywhere. I could just see Parker and Stone writing this episode being like there's no way we'll get away with this one haha. Well anyways I can't wait for season 17 of South Park this fall!
