"Sexual Healing"
March 17, 2010 - 10:03p.m.
The usual South Park recapping team is out having lives tonight, so I'll be filling in on the premiere episode of season 14, "Sexual Healing." I'm a fan, but I've never been enough of a fan to ...

Pee
November 18, 2009 - 11:11p.m.
Ironic racism is a hard line to walk. (Say, isn’t that a Lyle Lovett song?) Doing it right requires a satirical finesse that even our finest comic minds haven’t always pulled off—and when they try, they usually ...

Dances With Smurfs
November 11, 2009 - 11:11p.m.
I know we don’t agree on much within the mortar-scarred walls of the South Park blog, but I’m going to go out on a limb and say I’m almost certain we can come together on at least ...

The F Word
November 4, 2009 - 10:11p.m.
Hello there. Your usual South Park duo are otherwise occupied tonight, so y’all get a third-stringer to suss out tonight’s confounding episode. And of course it’s an episode dealing exclusively with a word that I don’t ...

Whale Whores
October 29, 2009 - 12:10a.m.
Hey kids, sorry I’m a little late. As you may have heard, we recently released a book, and tonight we had a reading. But now I’m back to and committed to chatting with y’all, yet again, about ...

W.T.F.
October 21, 2009 - 09:10p.m.
Hey all, here we are at another South Park rap session, and one that’s coming off a couple of episodes that most of you kinda shrugged your shoulders at. I actually thought “Butters’ Bottom Bitch” was pretty damn funny ...

Butters' Bottom Bitch
October 15, 2009 - 12:10a.m.
Hey, everyone, it’s the other gibbering half of this weekly exercise in South Park schizophrenia. I know Josh suggested last week that we start off by elucidating which episodes we tend to enjoy, so you can decide up front ...

Dead Celebrities
October 7, 2009 - 11:10p.m.
Welcome back to all y’all South Park fans and haters to the second half of season 13, the first half of which already brought us the highly divisive “Fishsticks” and “Pinewood Derby” episodes. I think what Sean O’Neal ...

"Fatbeard"
April 22, 2009 - 11:04p.m.
We’ve reached the end of another South Park half-season, and not a moment too soon for me, anyway. I think if I had to spend another Wednesday night rehashing the plot of, applying critical appraisal to, and then assigning ...

South Park: season 13, episode 6
"Pinewood Derby"
April 15, 2009 - 11:04p.m.
Oh man, how do you follow up one of the best South Park episodes in recent memory? There’s pretty much no way the show can top last week’s Kanye West episode—even Kanye reacted fairly positively to the ... -
South Park: season 13, episode 5
"Fishsticks"
April 8, 2009 - 11:04p.m.
Of all the celebrities ripe for a good South Park skewering, Kanye West is definitely up there, so when I heard that he’d play a big role in tonight’s “Fishsticks” I had high hopes. I’m not sure ... -

Eat, Pray, Queef
April 2, 2009 - 12:04a.m.
Oh, South Park, you had me at “queef.” Okay, not really. I’m typing this before watching the show, but I have to give credit to the title already: “Eat, Pray, Queef.” It’s such a wonderful, descriptive word, isn ... -
South Park: season 13, episode 3
"Margaritaville"
March 25, 2009 - 11:03p.m.
Well here we are, kids, three chapters into the seventy-twelfth season of South Park and we’ve got ourselves the first big “message” episode. I’ve said before that I kind of love the topical SPs, the formula of ... -
South Park: season 13, episode 2
"The Coon"
March 18, 2009 - 10:03p.m.
Your regularly scheduled South Park duo are busy covering some silly little music festival in Austin tonight, so while Josh and Sean are off eating tacos and being total hipster douchebags, I’m stepping in to ask the question that ... -
South Park: season 13, episode 1
The Ring
March 11, 2009 - 12:03p.m.
According to Wikipedia, tonight’s episode was the 182nd South Park, and Trey Parker and Matt Stone are under contract to deliver a whopping 42 more. I predict that each of those episodes—assuming we continue to cover them in ... -

The Ungroundable
November 19, 2008 - 09:11p.m.
It's the end of another South Park season, and thus probably a good time to ask this question: What are we looking for in the show? I'm not sure what the answer is, but I have to say ... -

Elementary School Musical
November 13, 2008 - 12:11a.m.
Sweet, another movie spoof! Although I have to say, this one I thoroughly enjoyed. Most likely that's because I can relate to the boys' baffling "This is what's cool now?" appraisal of the High School Musical "phenomenon," which ... -

About Last Night
November 5, 2008 - 11:11p.m.
So, after weeks of grumbling that its writers were ignoring all that ripe, low-hanging social commentary fruit in favor of plucking more warmed-over movie parodies, South Park finally gets topical, and the result is another warmed-over movie parody. But you ... -

Pandemic 2, The Startling
October 29, 2008 - 11:10p.m.
When we left our heroes last week, there was no "to be continued" to be found, and some of you speculated that that was a commentary on ambiguous Hollywood movies like Cloverfield which had been parodied earlier in the episode ... -

Pandemic
October 22, 2008 - 11:10p.m.
Okay, I'll say this right off the bat: I don't get the joke. But honestly, I think that says more about the joke than it does about me. Peruvian flute bands? It took me a few minutes to ...
