Welcome to the Mad House

“I hereby declare this day, Matt Stone and Trey Parker day for teaching me that my eyesight fools me and the world is really made of construction paper.”

~ George W. Bush on July 4, 2002

“I eat construction paper and crap this.”

~ Oscar Wilde on South Park

South Park is an American animated educational[1] television series created by a pair of closeted morons named Trey Parker and Matt Stone. Originally intended for children, the show unexpectedly gained a large following among "adult" audiences, and has since become infamous for it's clean humor, as well as it's "genius" satire focused on a diverse range of targets; although more often than not, usually random celebrities and Liberals.

It used to revolve around the adventures of four extremely average children—Stan Marsh, Kyle Broflovski, Eric Cartman, and Kenny McCormick—and the melodramatic events of their lives as they grow up in the small, quiet, peaceful mountain town of South Park, Colorado. Now it's mostly about the parents, politics, and every adult in the show being an idiot.

South Park's bashing of supervillain Dick Cheney.

Origins and Creation

It is still debatable which one's the bitch, and which one's the butch...

Parker and Stone developed the show from two animated shorts they created in college, even though a kid in a second grade special education class could do better. They attempted to create one of the first Internet viral videos. Unfortunately, no one bothered to use YouTube back then, due to dial-up Internet connection being the highest speed available. Many people would have perished from starvation if they waited for the the video to stop buffering, and so it was seen by barely anyone. However, leading actor George Clooney, being as fat and lazy as he is, managed to sit through the entire video loading up, surviving off a 24-pack of Cheetos and the blubber stored up in his own body. After finally watching it, he was greatly impressed (somehow) and burned several copies onto CD and sent them to several Network Executives, most of them being the ones he hooked up with when he was on ER. At first, 20th Century Fox was approached to broadcast South Park, but they refused adamantly, stating that:

  • A: They would not air a television show with so many similarities to The Simpsons.
  • B: They would not air a television show that was so vulgar and crude, relying heavily on toilet humour and racism.

After rejecting South Park, Fox then immediately went on to acquire the highly original and kewl animated TV show Family Guy. Fortunately, the much less classier network, Comedy Central, agreed to pick up the rights to South Park and began airing it on August 13, 1997 to great success.

Premise

Setting

“I have no idea where this road will lead us, but I have a definite feeling it will be a place both wonderful and strange!”

~ FBI Special Agent Dale Cooper on the main road into South Park

South Park is a small town located within the South Park Basin in the Rocky Mountains of central Colorado. The town, sometimes described in song as a "Jesusland|Pissant, Whitebread, Redneck, Trailer Trash, Mountain Town", has been enjoyed by tourists and residents for its peacefulness and its spiritual quality of life; no doubt in part from being twinned with the nearby town of Silent Hill. The premise of the show and the town is usually some celebrity showing up because of a current event that becomes dated very quickly, and poop. Unlike most isolated rural communities, South Park contains a highly diverse range of cultures and ethnicities, including Jews, blacks, Koreans, Peruvian Flute Bands, Chinese, aliens, Crab People, vampires, goths, Canadians, vampire-goths, Indians---I mean, Native Americans, and most importantly, good old-fashioned white people, the only safe type of people in the show. A full list containing all of the population's names and their corresponding ethnic background can be found in South Park resident Eric Cartman's school project paper, Mein Kampf gegen die Juden.

Just your average day in the Park.

Themes and Style

Each episode of the first five seasons opened with a tongue-in-cheek disclaimer:

All characters and events in this show---even those based on real people---are entirely fictional. All celebrity voices are impersonated... poorly. The following program contains coarse language and due to its content it should not be viewed by anyone.

According to Parker, this was originally intended as a form of the Pandora Technique, in which a work is made extremely popular because it was advertised as being too vulgar for anybody to watch it. In fact, a few crew members actually died of laughter and arousal after watching the pilot episode, despite it being written by a 2 year old overdosing on acid,forcing Comedy Central to include the disclaimer. In some states, a few relatively insignificant seconds of the episode were cut, and in other states, the viewers were encouraged to have a defibrillator handy when watching the episode. On August 14, 1997, it was reported that twelve viewers were sent to the hospital during and/or after the original broadcast of the episode, and four of them died. Since something similar happened to an episode of Pokemon, Network Executives considered pulling the episode and the series altogether, but Parker and Stone persuaded the Executives to keep the show after delivering numerous "I learned something today" heartfelt speeches over the course of three days, and paying their life savings to the Executives and their souls to the Network Ghosts. After five seasons, Parker and Stone finally wrote out character Kenny out of the entire show as a commercial stunt that lasted the majority of one season. During that season, the show's disclaimer changed constantly, and Kenny became more useless than the American school system.

“All characters and events are entirely fictional. If you're looking for Kenny McCormick, you've come to the wrong place. Famous for his deaths, Kenny died permanently from a disease that made his muscles atrophy, which somehow caused his soul to lock, effectively lifting the curse of dying and coming back to life all the time. He will be missed, especially by Stan Marsh, Kyle Broflovski, and Eric Cartman, who are now looking for a replacement for Kenny. Welcome to the Mad House.”

~ "Jared Has Aides" - "Child Abduction is Not Funny"

“All characters and events are entirely fictional. Famous for his deaths, Kenny died permanently from a disease that made his muscles atrophy, which somehow caused his soul to lock, effectively lifting the curse of dying and coming back to life all the time. But in a world of darkness, a beam of hope shines down on South Park, whose residents infer that Kenny might return someday. If this were to happen, everything would be back to normal except that Kenny would be cursed no more. So don't expect anymore Kenny-killings out of us. We've pretty much killed him every way imaginable. With that in mind, let's just hope Kenny comes back at all. Welcome to the Mad House.”

~ "A Ladder to Heaven"

“All characters and events are entirely fictional. Famous for his deaths, Kenny died permanently from a disease that made his muscles atrophy, which somehow caused his soul to lock, effectively lifting the curse of dying and coming back to life all the time. Just recently, Kenny's soul entered the body of Eric Cartman, who was then possessed by Kenny, after Cartman accidentally consumed Kenny's ashes. Kenny has returned to South Park! He's lost his own physical body and must occupy someone else's, sure, but he still has returned! Welcome to the Mad House.”

~ "The Return of the Fellowship of the Ring to the Two Towers" - "The Biggest Douche in the Universe"

“All characters and events are entirely fictional. Famous for his deaths, Kenny died permanently from a disease that made his muscles atrophy, which somehow caused his soul to lock, effectively lifting the curse of dying and coming back to life all the time. Just recently, Kenny's soul entered the body of Eric Cartman, who was then possessed by Kenny, after Cartman accidentally consumed Kenny's ashes. This drove Cartman crazy, so he had Kenny's soul exorcised, and Kenny's soul ended up in a pot roast that was eaten by Rob Schneider, who was then possessed by Kenny. Mr. Schneider died shortly after being possessed, by being shot and impaled on a flagpole. If you know anything about this ghost stuff, you should know that this would kill Kenny yet again. We kinda killed Kenny again even though we said we wouldn't. It's just like that one episode with Kathie Lee Gifford, except Kenny's already dead and he's inside Rob Schneider! This is a sign that we're slowly becoming less creative, which caused the fall of many shows before this one. Welcome to the Mad House.”

~ "My Future Self 'n' Me" - "Red Sleigh Down"

Later on in the production of season six, Parker and Stone were forced to write the story arc involving Kenny's soul or else be impaled by Dracula, who had also sold his soul to the Comedy Central Network Ghosts. Much like black slaves wrote songs that subtly insulted their masters, Parker and Stone wrote elements into the story arc that subtly insulted the Executives, including the similarities between Cartman's possession and the nature of the Network Ghosts, and Rob Schneider's impalement and Dracula's impalement threats. In the end, they brought Kenny back to life, much to the rejoicing of the fandom. Parker, Stone, and the Executives all agreed that this decision was justified by the fact that Rob Schneider dying while possessed by Kenny would bring Kenny back to life, and the same would apply to Cartman's possession had Cartman died while possessed by Kenny.

“All characters and events are entirely fictional. After possessing Rob Schneider and dying in his body, Kenny has returned to South Park with his own physical body back! Welcome to the Mad House.”

~ "Canceled" - "Toilet Paper"

Then the show reached 100 episodes.

“All characters and events are entirely fictional. Thank you for 100 episodes!”

~ "I'm a Little Bit Country"

After that, the show's disclaimer changed every several episodes.

Most episodes revolve around a plot serving as a parable for religion, politics and numerous other topics. Although it has been criticised by many high-art critics that this is not entirely evident till the end, with one of the characters using the "You know what? I've Learned something today..." speech.

Many of the attitudes and values of the show stem directly from the creators themselves. Adults in South Park are often portrayed as gullible, irrational, and prone to having distorted views on morality. Matt Stone and Trey Parker both use Kyle and Stan as their representative characters in South Park. However, due to both Matt and Trey being complete Psychopaths with a total lack of empathy, they identify more with the character of Cartman, and through him express their prejudice and hatred for anything remotely Human. They then attempt to justify their evil doings by having Stan and Kyle frown upon Cartman and express their disapproval, often saying "You shouldn't say that, man. That's not cool." Because of this, Matt and Trey manage to narrowly escape being convicted of inciting Hatred every single episode.

Writing Process

The writing process of South Park is very interesting. You may think South Park is just a lazy show with no thought put into it except for what the creators are mad about that day, and while you would be right, there's a bit more put into it. Trey and Matt usually spend their time in the local zoo bargaining deals for them to buy more writers, as most of them get choked to death with a fishtick by Kanye. The monkeys are then forced to write political messages (monkey metaphors) with one hand on the typewriter, while their other hand is used to animate the show. It's always the monkey's weaker hand, so that's why the show looks so bad. After that, Matt and Trey take their finished scripts to Make A Point Land, where the make a point wizard checks to see if the script is dated enough to be in the show. The accepted scripts and animation paper get put into a little thing called the Cartuner. After the cartuner replaces all the jokes for messages, a south park episode is finished.

Characters

Oscar Wilde also wanted to be a South Park character.

Stan Marsh

Stan Marsh exists, I forgot about that. He is noticeable for always wearing a puff ball hat and instinctively vomiting whenever he is sexually aroused (usually around Kyle). Although his exact placing is unknown, it is highly reasonable that he is quite high up on Cartman's list of South Park residents to be sent to the gas chamber.

Kyle Broflovski

Kyle Broflovski... or Broflofski... or is it Brovlovski... ski or sky? Anyway, he is the token Jew of the group. He is also Parker and Stone's megaphone for spewing their libertarian views at you, aka the infamous "I Learned something today". Despite secretely worshipping the secondary Pagan god of Christmas, Mr. Hankey. He always wears a green hat, that if you squint your eyes really hard it looks like a dragon with a wig on. Kyle even earns his own special category as "Dirty jew #1" on Eric Cartman's list of South Park residents to kill.

"Eric is awesome and kewl,and he totally hasn't turned into a pussy"|Comment added by Eric Cartman

Eric Theodore Cartman is arguably the breakout character of South Park and is a cult favorite, despite sounding like "a group of Vietnamese people having their intestines pulled out through their mouths". He is a fat, spoiled, racist, foul-mouthed, mean-spirited, ill-tempered and prejudiced fourth-grader living with his hermaphrodite, crack-smoking single mother/father, you know, kind of like the average user on this dump. Many psychologists and school counselors such as Freud and Mr. Mackey have expressed puzzlement as to where his personality disorders stem from.

Eric is notable for his hatred of any ethnicity or subculture that he is not a part of, giving special attention to the Jews and hippies. Fueled by this rage, Cartman has proved himself a master tactician when it comes to abusing people and tricking his classmates into doing his bidding as the Neo-Fuehrer. In one season 5 episode, Cartman made an enemy named Scott Tenorman. Near the end of this episode, Cartman would go as far as to kill Scott's parents and feed the bits and pieces of their corpses to him. This ends up biting him in his ginger-hating asshole, seeing as Scott's dad was also his own dad, which royally fucked him over. Game over, Cartman! You are now guilty of fatricide. Pwnt. Turns out he was only sad because his real dad was ginger.

For you fucktards who don't understand what fatricide is, it's when you kill your own father on purpose and/or for a reason, maybe to get an advance on your inheritance.

It has also been debated by leading Psychiatrists (mostly Freud) as to whether Cartman's intense hatred and urge to kill Kyle are mainly the result of misplaced Sexual Attraction. Much like the Oedipal complex, Cartman's feelings are so strong, yet he has been raised by society in a way that he may not understand them, that he believes he wants to kill Kyle rather than have sex with him. On several occasions Cartman has attempted to elicit sexual interaction from Kyle, at one point spending 3 back to back episodes trying to get Kyle to orally imbibe his scrotum and pubical sack.

Kenny McCormick

Main article: Kenny McCormick
Kenny in a rare moment of not being dead.

Kenny McCormick is the token working-class kid who is so poor that his main diet consists of pancake waffles with no condiments, yet somehow managed to buy a Sony PSP. He resides with his family in the Ghetto, and is subject to the usual harassment and insults that society can offer. Despite the sub-part of this article being called "character", that's the opposite of Kenny, who really doesn't do much. It is revealed 0.75 seconds after the murder (on average) that They did it. They are then punished by being called "Bastards", and for the rest of the episode the surviving characters set out to solve the remaining subplot.

After six Seasons and roughly 843 deaths, Kenny decided to take a break from being viciously mutilated and stayed dead. After a nice holiday in hell, partying with Princess Diana and Ghandi, he then returned with demonic superpowers.

Plagiarism Accusations

Twin Peaks

South What???

South Park has been criticised by fans of David Lynch (all 3 of them, as a matter of fact) of plagiarising many themes and ideas from his 90's TV show, Twin Peaks. Lynch has yet to comment on this, mostly because he doesn't care. However, his loyal and devoted triplet of fans have compiled the most damning of evidence, in order to take action against South Park creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone.


Other people

Other people also criticize South Park for its references/stereotypes/plagiarism aimed at them, or the fact that people realize that showing live action footage of castration on TV isn't funny or clever.

Trey and Parker’s religion, South Park, has Scientology as blasphemy, so Scientologists got really pissed off. They tried finding dirt on the church of South Park but couldn’t find anything.
