    This show is great. The show takes real world situations that need addressing and it then over exaggerates the situations and packages them in a hilarious way. Every episode gets at least 4 big laughs out of me. People who don't find it funny at all are either too young or stupid or both to understand the political and social innuendos the show contains.

    It is one of the funniest, well written, and smartly done shows ever made. Matt and Trey's ability to take current events and turn them into hysterical and eye opening view points is a talent that no one else could do best. Here's to more good episodes, and to more good times with the foul mouthed 9 year olds!

    Easily one of the funniest and most iconic TV shows ever created. Trey Parker and Matt Stone have kept the funny coming for over 13 years now. An entire episode is written and produced in less than a week allowing the writers to keep the material fresh and relevant.

    Awesome show. It is downright insane to me, that there are some individuals out there who lack any sense of humor and would rate this show anything below a 10. Sure, the show is bold and crosses comedic boundaries but so the **** what- that is what makes it so genius.

    Amazing show, like it a lot more that all the other animated shows like the simpsons and Family Guy. Funny and amusing at all points and clever animation and scripting also very original, its about time someone took a break from the dysfunctional family genre of comedy.

    This is one of the funniest well written shows out there, there is no way in hell anything comes even close.
    Matt and Trey make every episode funny. Of course some episodes are not that funny but 90% of them are. I got to say though i liked Eric Cartmans voice a lot more in the beginning seasons, but he is still my favorite character.

    One of the best cartoons to date. The show ages in time, although the pass few seasons episodes are either mega hits, or super bombs.

    The South Park is huge, and diverse. There's a lot of easter eggs in this TV show from past characters, to pop culture references. The characters themselves were once one dimensional but season to season seem to grow even more in depth. Matt and    One of the best cartoons to date.

    Matt and Trey do what most writing teams are afraid, push the envelope. They tackle topics are often tabooed or too edgy for most writers.

    After looking pass the crude humor, fart jokes, and whatever else might piss "conformist" off, there's always a great message written underneath each episode.

    This show is brilliant as it reflects current issues and blows them out of proportion just as society often does; however, with a twist to help ground us and laugh or we can stay in denial and call this funny cartoon Satan.

    What people seem to not understand, is in addition to shock-humor and immature comedy, this show is mainly political and social commentary. It please immature fans with the first two mentioned comedic standards, and reaches to a more more mature, grown up audience with its political satire. I love this show, and if you look at it right, you will too.

    The humor is great. The casting is great. The art-style is great. The everything-about-this-show is great. It has cheesy humor and a great art style. I was laughing for hours when I saw it for the first time. It also has lovable jerks in it. Example: Eric Cartman.

    This show is the funniest and craziest show on television. Every character is interesting and funny too. The humor is very very black and yes sometimes the humor is a little bit weirdo. But south park is still amazing. Trey Park and Matt Stone are inspirations.

    I think this show keeps getting better and better. almost with every episode. Although it is a bit less crude than it used to be, and a bit less vulgar and a quite a bit more topical I still love the characters. I must say tho' it has almost become too topical to a point of preaching to the audience.

    South Park has been on television for some time now. The first episode is unrecognizable. I have enjoyed watching the show for over six years. For awhile the episodes seemed to always be good.

For awhile the episodes seemed to always be good. The children would cause some problem and eventually have to try and solve it. In many episodes Kenny dies, Cartman hates on Kyle, and Kyle says, "I have learned something today." But lets not forget Stan, because my favorite character in South Park is Stan's dad, Randy Marsh. This guy is an idiot (in a good way). In the 2008 election episode Randy sings out a song in the street, "OOOBama your so fine, you so fine you blow my mind...Hey Obama... Hey Obama." In many episodes he does something stupid like that. All the other characters help add to the show. Mr. Garrison is the children's teacher for the many years they have been in the fourth grade. At first he was gay, but a few seasons ago he became a woman and know is a lesbian. lol... Another character is Mr. Mackey (mmk). He is the school counslar that always says mmk. Chef is someone the children go to for help or ask questions. Their are many other characters in this show like: Hanky, Towely, etc... (Watch the show and you'll see that their is a **** load of characters). Like Family Guy, this show makes fun of current situations, but instead of lasting for thirty seconds (like Family Guy) they last the entire episode (twenty minutes or so). Some of my favorite episodes from the other seasons are: Casa Bonata, Make Love Not Warcraft, Shake Weight, Fishsticks, Pinewood Derby, W.T.F., Whale Wars, Imagination Land, Fat Camp, Scott Tenorman Must Die, Cartmanland, How to Eat with Your Butt, and many others.
