South Park returns for an 11th year and from what I heard it rocked. Sadly Youtube has taken all the 11x01 episodes off their server, so I have to wait awhile before I can see it all.
I think South Park is some of the funniest animated stuff on TV. Far more funnier then Family Guy (and I love the two-parter South Park did bashing on Family Guy). I alos loved their episode on Scientology.
I havn't bought the DVDs, but I own the "Best Off... Vol. 1" Collection and they have some good episodes.
Though half the time the series is just mindless humor, I still love it. I am angry The CW moved it from 11pm to 12pm, cause I use to always watch it before I went to bed.

I love South Park, I think it's one of the funniest shows on TV. I thought the movie was just way too funny also. My only bad thing to say about it is sometimes they go a little too far with the sexual jokes.

Yeah I agree. The hot tub one with Kyle and Stan's dad was a bit odd, though after was funny on how they all reacted to it.
I love the movie, though I wish they would have made the movie later. Their characters (like Butters) got better later on. Hopefully they'll make another movie cause their production value on detail is now so amazing, plus I want Towlie to be in. He is like my favorite character XD "Wanna get high?"

So I finally saw 11.01 "With Apologies to Jesse Jackson". I think its pretty funny, I know some people will be offended, but its all in good taste. None of this is ment to be hurtful, its only fair that everyone can be made fun of.
I can't wait to see what else comes out this season, maybe some Rosie stuff, or Anna Nicole Smith.

I love South Park.
I forgot to tape this week's premiere.
Butters is awesome. I think he's my favorite. I loved the Two Towers episode when he accidentally saw the porn because Stan's parents gave Butters' parents the wrong videotape and he thought he was watching Lord of the Rings, then he turned into a Gollum-like character chasing after the porn movie. "Precious! My precious."
Then when the boys took the video tape and Butters begged to go along, he started humping one of them (Stan I think), who yelled, "Butters! What the hell are you doing?" Then Butters said, "Playing like Lord of the Rings."
My other favorite episodes are the Scientology and the Mormom episodes. R. Kelly singing, "Tom Cruise is trapped in the clooooooooset!" was classic. "And Tom Cruise and John Travolta said, 'We're not comin' out the cloooooooooset!'"
Of course, they offend tons of people all the time. They definitely go too far all the time, but they still make really insightful, poignant points. They just usually do it in a really graphic, obscene, offensive way.
I have a pretty obnoxious sense of humor, so I love it. I don't like Mr. Hanky or any of the feces humor. I don't like the kind of humor. It grosses me out because all I can think about is how disgusting it smells.
The one that also went a bit too far was the Paris Hilton one, "Stupid, Spoiled Whore" or whatever they called her. Sure, they made good points about celebs like Paris and how pathetic it is that young girls are idolizing and emulating shallow, spoiled, pointless human beings like Paris and Nicole Richie. But the part of the episode where Paris starts putting stuff up her girl parts was just too much.

I like the episode execpt the last five-ten minutes with Paris VS Mr. Slave, though the dog part and her wanting Butters was great I love how his parents are more interested in the money. I think Butters has gotten some great episodes, I loved "Butter's Very Own Episode" and all the Professor Chaos episodes, and when he wants to destroy South Park, but "Simpson's Did It!" and when he thinks he has a girlfriend but its just the Raisens girl being nice to him. Ohh I LOVE the Goth Kids, they are great^^ The poop stuff is a bit... weird. Mr Hanky wasn't that funny but I love when we meet his family and his alcholoic wife.

I didn't see the one with Mr. Hanky's wife.
I agree that most of the stupid, spoiled whore episode was good, but the end with the who's the biggest whore contest was just gross.
Tweak is awesome too. I love when they have his parents giving him all the coffee and he's freaking out and tweaking.
The Timmy/Jimmy "cripple fight"with the blow by blow reenactment of the alley fight in "They Live" was crazy.
I especially love how the adults on South Park are always acting crazy and the kids bring the wisdom and have a sentimental moment, but the adults usually go back to acting insane right away.
The Walmart one was awesome too! So true. We are the bringers of our own destruction.

Oh I love Jimmy and Timmy and how they arn't making fun of the disabled, but its kind of true in what some of them do. I love the special olympics episode where Cartman enters and Jimmy starts doing steroids and beats his girlfriend^^
The adults are great "Back to the orgy pile!". I love Mr. Marsh and just how stupid he is at times, and his whole alcholics thing. All great.
The Walmart one I cannot get enough of. I just love the very end when they destroy the walmart and everyone is running out.

Did anyone see this week's episode? It was one of my favorites of all time.
Butters is my favorite character, so any Butters heavy episode is great to me.
The whole irony of the religious camp to cure "bi-curious" kids filled with kids who constantly kills themselves was a really powerful way to express the damage those kinds of movements cause to countless people. I thought that it was
I loved Butters' dad's comment to the priest, "A secluded camp where lots of bi-curious boys are all put together? That sounds like a good idea!"
It's powerful how they sweet, inspiring music to certain situations, before they give a big turn, like the sappy music they had when the camp director was walking down the hall give Butters a pep talk:
"You're confused and you don't think there's a way out. But even though some people would have you believe you can't control how you feel, the truth is that with the power of Jesus Christ, you can be normal. Now just to make sure you don't slip up while in camp, we assign every camper an accountabila-buddy. Your accountabilabuddy is Ryan. Ryan thought he could never change, but now he's learning that with the power of Christ and prayer, he can have a whole new life."
*Opens door to room and Ryan has hung himself. Closes door*
"Over this way we have the cafeteria." Then he whispers to another camp counselor, "We've got another one, room 22."
LMAO. Suicide has never been so funny and poignant.
This show makes such powerful points with over-the top irony.

I saw it last night (I have a site that updates the episodes the same night) and I agree, I love any Butter heavy episode ("Butter's Very Own Episode" and "A.w.s.o.m.e.-O" are two that I can think of off the bat). The Cartman/Butter relationship is what I love, just how Butters dosn't get it, but eveyone else does. I love the photo of "The Sleeping Menstral" god I couldn't stop laughing! The entire penis in the mouth was kind of weird... But I love how Cartman reacts to the others calling him gay.
The entire gay camp was too funny, the obviously-gay-priest was great. And all the boys, the scene you said with Ryan was great. I just couldn't stop laughing at that moment, I don't know why but it was just great.
Butter's reaction through out the entire episode was funny, and at the end "OK that you are bi-curious, so am I" was just great, seeing as he went to gay bath houses in an earlier episode. The ending at the camp was great and Butter's speech, its just so true and I am glad South Park did this episode because I think it sheds more light on the truth of what goes on.
Kyle, Stan and Kenny in this episode are great just how much they really don't care, but Cartman just completly over reacts.
The ending at the class when Cartman shows the picture just made me drop dead laughing!
Aww, I hope season 11 has just all these good episodes. Season 10 was amazing, and I hope season 11 is just as good. I kind of really want an Anna Nicole Smith episode.
"Camp New Grace, Pray the Gay Away"

"Pray the Gay Away." ROTFL!!!
I didn't catch that in the episode. That's hilarious.
I just love how cute and sweet Butters is even in the face of Cartman's psychopathic behavior. Butters parents are so messed up. They're so mean to him! What about the one where they thought Butters was dead because Cartman faked his death, then the dad buried what he thought was Butters in the evil pet cemetary. When Butters came home, they thought he was a zombie and chained him in the basement. Then they sent some lady down there for him to eat. And Butters was all confused the whole time. Butters is always so confused. I don't think he'd be nearly such a great character if he didn't have that sweet, adorable, Disney-like voice.
My other favorite Butters episode was Two Towers, when the porno got mixed up with the LoTR: Two Towers and Butters gets left by himself to watch the porno (Back Door Sluts 9). Then when the boy came to pick up the video, they said that Butters could only come with them if they played like Lord of the Rings. Then Butters started humping Stan (or Kyle, I always get them mixed up) and he says, "Butters, what the Hell are you doing?!" Butters explained, "I'm playing like Lord of the Ring!"
Batboy, I was also laughing hysterically at Ryan hanging there. I know it's sick, but it's the extreme difference between what this camp director was saying they were doing for the boys and the desolation, hopelessness, and self-hatred they were actually instilling in these poor kids.
I also couldn't stop laughing every time one of the other boys shot himself. The best part was when the director said, "We're saving these boys!" and three gun shots went off in a row.
LMFAO! Good job with the saving, dudes.
It was pretty topical, because Dr. Keith Ablow had a show on that evangelical minister and how he'd had a three year affair with that male prostitute, all the while extolling the evils of homosexuality. And the minister told the prostitute that he was a liar, charlatan and hypocrite.
