But still some episodes are quite funny.

I wonder what the writers smoke (as well as drink) when writing these episodes lol.

This episode the thread is about is entitled “jewbacabra” which is a “Cryptozoology” subject…an unknown animal. The side story was the religious angle.

The episode you keep going on about was called “Trapped in the Closet” which was about famous people who may be gay, but won’t come out of “the closet”, Tom Cruise, John Travolta, R Kelly…the scientology that you keep going on and on about was the side story.

South Park was mocking Tom Cruise for being gay and used scientology to get him in “the closet” in the episode. The slurs they used to describe Tom Cruise in that episode I cannot repeat here…but those slurs all were references to him being gay, and not about him being a scientologist.

The show did go out of their way to attack scientology in that epsiode, which lead to Isaac Hayes leaving the show a year later.

You claim Matt and Trey are such great guys, well, Hayes who knew them better than you, made the statement, “There is a place in this world for satire, but there is a time when satire ends and intolerance and bigotry towards religious beliefs of others begin”.

You can love or hate the show, it makes no difference to anyone. If you are one of it’s 3 million weekly viewers, then good for you.

My issue was how they depicted those who have Cryptozoology as a hobby. Like others who didn’t like how their lifestyles were dipicted on South Park, we are allowed to make are feeling known, not sit quietly and let two spoiled brat punks write shows however they wish…in my opinion.

I never mentioned “trailers” you did, I only replied to YOUR response. In my opinion up to 75k puts you somewhere in the middle class, so I was commenting on how you could equate that to “trailers”.

As for Tom Cruise, he was fired in 2006, that’s a fact. If you want to claim him as a “major player” in 2005, you are entitled to your opinion

I think the problem you have is with scientology, and since South Park attacked scientology, you support South Park…the enemy of your enemy is your friend.

I could care less about either, I only care about Cryptozoology at this site and others. If you want a relious debate, you are in the wrong place.

South Park is what it is, and in this case, I didn’t like it. My opinion of spoiled punk brat writers still stands, and I, like everyone, is entitled to an opinion.

The South Park episode Trapped In The Closet came out at the same time of Paramount’s War of The Worlds, the 4th highest grossing movie of 2005. 2006 he starred in the even higher grossing Paramount movie MI III. He was being paid $75 million in 2006, that means be definition, he is a major Hollywood player. And while he has been making movies at Warner and Universal since MI Ghost Protocol, he is slated to be in Top Gun 2, a Paramount movie, in 2013.

If you think taking on Scientology is no big deal, you need to do some reading. Start with the Time magazine article by Richard Behar. Then you can move on to the attacks, personal and legal, made against those who speak out against that “religion”.

If you think people living in trailer parks make over $75k a year, it explains some of your posts on this article..

The good thing about the freedom South Park has, to do what they please on their shows, is we as viewers are entitled to our opinions of them

We could list a 1000 times where South Park crossed the line and offended some one, example would be, they used the “n” word over 40 times in different episodes.

The problem in my opinion is when folks like you turn your head at every offensive act because you see it as “just a show”, and “let them have their fun”.

With this show as you claim, “nothing is scared”. Episodes with subjects such as child molestation, beastiality, murder, rape, incest, racism, child abuse, and other terrible ideas have found their way onto South Park…no juwpun…this is NOT “just a show”.

There is a man serving 25 years in prison for death threats against the writers of South Park The lines they cross upset a ton of people a million times more than me.

This was a simple nothing episode about religion and crypotozoology that in my opinion, was not that funny. I didn’t like the way they made the folks look, so what.

Cryptozoology is not a subject to get upset about, yet look at every Cryptozoology site and see how many arguments go back and forth, Believer vs Skeptic.

And for your record, in my opinion Matt and Trey are not “really cool people”. I believe they are creative guys who came up with a brilliant concept, but became cheap shot artists and bullies when they found success.

This show is just their platform to express what they choose…they are exactly like rap stars, saying whatever they want about whoever they want

“Intelligent racy comedy”? I claim BS, it’s the same toilet humor that made them famous. They are two men in their 40′s who act like teenage boys. As long as they have followers like you, their success will continue

Yeah the Cash for Gold had a few moments, it mostly showed the stupidity of buying and selling junk jewlery

Killing the baby lambs was just not funny. I don’t mind the offensive act, but the set up was predictable, big sad cute eyes on a cartoon lamb, then repeatably slitting their throats for a laugh. I guess when I knew what was coming, it lost it’s shock value…big, sad, or cute eyes = murder, rape, or death on South Park

South Park has pretty much done everything shocking, maybe that’s the problem…nothing is as funny when you are expecting what will be seen, and then they show it
