Also there is some sort of Youtube/POV Porn inspired series called Secret Girlfriend ion after South Park.
It may go down as one of the absolute worst shows of all time. I am not exaggerating. The premise alone, in action, is so horrible that I couldn't make it past 5 minutes. Expect to see it on The Soup often, if it airs past 2 episodes.
The new episode was great. Chipotle, Summer of Death celebrities, and Ghost Hunters spoof was awesome.
God I love southpark. Been waiting on a new episode for ages.
Just caught the repeat. Fucking hilarious. Billy Mays stuff was great.
totally called them going to hell at the end. good start to part 2 of this season.
after only watching the opening of My Secret Girlfriend, i got a severe case of duche-chills. although that ex-girlfriend chick made me jizz myself...she got some nice tits.
Good, but I think they'll do better --they generally aren't as strong after a long break, I read an interview where Parker and Stone admitted that their best stuff often happens when they're frantically making an episode at the last second.
I wish they had milked some of the other jokes, i.e. not Billy Mays, a little more. Enjoyed the cameos, though most weren't speaking parts.
I had to watch the repeat because the DVR keeps cutting off the final few minutes.
"WHAT WAS THAT?!? It was kinda like a....dup."
The first half of the season was pretty hit or miss for me, but this episode was pretty strong.
Good stuff. Hope it stays that way for the duration.
It was alright, pretty much because I'm a fan of Ghost Hunters and the two main guys don't act like that on the show. If you want to see a bunch of idiots stumbling around in the dark, check out Most Haunted on the Travel Channel. Any bang or tap they go apeshit and the camera guy doesn't know what to do.
Granted, they did exaggerate it a bit, but it was funny to me because I view any show about paranormal investigation as completely absurd. It's like John Edwards or magic on television to a lesser extent. I honestly don't get the entertainment value unless you genuinely believe in such things.
Fuck, they didn't have Billy Mays on crack.
Gaaaay.

"Your just ignorant!"
It's been up, I was watching it from their website earlier today. If you don't own an idiot box this is a perfect way to see all the episodes of South Park.
Am I missing something with the connection between Chipotle and underwear blood?
Its actually an annoying problem: I can if I record each episode as a separate recording... however, if I set my cheap/default DVR to record all first run or all episodes within a time-slot, it will override my attempts to record 3 minutes after the scheduled end time. Yet I've sometimes forgot or been unable to get around to recording an episode within the week that I have to set the recording, so I'd prefer not to set the recording each week.
Eh, it was alright.
I'd forgotten they were two different shows. Thanks for pointing them out. I was thinking of Most Haunted and agreeing that the show sucks. So Ghost Hunters is good? I'm not even sure I've seen it.
Mexican food has a reputation for anal leakage and/or explosiveness in general. Not sure about blood though.
BTW, this past week's episode (Butter's Bottom Bitch) was excellent.
Much better than the last one.
"STRETCH!"
Usually I agree with you, but on this season you have been way, way off. That first episode was like their magnum opus. It had so much crammed into it: Billy Mays, Michael Jackson, Chipotle, Ghost Hunters. They could have made a whole episode about just one of those things, and they were all sent up in a memorable way. The show was in rare form. It was like an hour-long episode cut down to a half hour. There must have been many deleted scenes.
The second episode was fine, but it's run-of-the-mill, and ultimately forgettable. Just back to routine, in my opinion. Write a little story, see it through to the end. Decent execution, but nothing spectacular.
I thought the ghosts were a series of let downs and wasted opportunities. You show Sean Payton and don't even make a reference to the way he died? Billy Mays stopped being a funny joke about halfway through the episode, and instead they had less time with the best joke --MJ.
I suspect that they wanted to be at least a little sensitive to some of the recently dead, even if it is South Park. It's not going to be funny if it's simply in poor taste. Some of the less funny South Park episodes contained a lot of cheap shots.
I enjoyed the Billy Mays products. Their voices doing those kinds of characters are just always funny. But you're right about MJ. They could have spent a lot more time, and that's one place I think the episode felt cut up.
The Butters Bottom Bitch episode will be hard to top for me, as far as the rest of the season goes. It was probably my favorite episode in SEASONS. Just having Butters going through all that stuff without ever really realizing what it was, priceless. The ghost episode was good, but everything that went into the whole Butters story, hearing him swear all the time (because it's so NOT Butters). Hilarious.
The latest ep, "W.T.F." was excellent. I was hoping for a riff on balloon boy (and there was a very minor reference), but they really did a great parody of wrestling --there were several layers of commentary in how they handled scenes.
And it was nice to see jorbs back.
Remember, you can watch all episodes for free on their website (something you can thank a very early internet agreement made between Parker/Stone and Comedy Central before anyone understood how valuable internet broadcast rights would become... LOL. It's like when Fox gave Lucas all the ancillary rights to Star Wars):

I was so glad to see the rednecks from the goobacks episode back in full force. Just at the end with the Mexican audience saying "Oh my God! They killed Kenny" and "They broke his jaw!" was awesome.
That Ghost Hunters bit was spot on. Sorry Yuck, but the BS they do every 5 minutes of "OMG did you hear that, see that, feel that, small that?!" is old.

VIVA EL POLLO LOCO!
Watch Most Haunted on The Travel Channel, their ten times worse and they never show anything. All you get is the black and white night vision camera pointed in the people's faces yelling and screaming, "What's that!? Are you alright?! AHH! I heard something!" There's a really good parody video of two people with a night vision camera imitating the people on the show and you hear, "Hey! Turn on the damn light!" and they end up standing in somebody's kitchen.
The guys over at TAPS loved the episode, they had it over on their site and on their Twitter pages saying they loved the episode and they weren't angry with them.
Also, they've got seasons 1-8 of South Park streaming on Netflix now. It's always great to watch some of the old ones over again.
I remember growing up and watching Unsolved Mysteries and getting the creeps from some of the paranormal stories. Then I got older :emb:
I also remember when the Alf Tales cartoon would parody the Unsolved Mysteries voice-over intro.
Give me the original any day:

I thought Whale Whores was a bit weak and missed some great opportunities --but it did have one saving grace: Cartman's rendition of Poker Face which needs to be an official cover :buttrock:
while its on YouTube, here's the version (the song isn't even on RockBand)
