South Park Megathread - Warning NSFW language inside

[The Lion King]

I don't really like South Park. I sometimes find it quite nauseating on almost every level and for so very many different reasons. I can't stand how basic and artistically drab it is, I can't stand how all the characters both sound the same and are the same, I can't stand how pointlessly offensive it is, I can't stand how bad it satirises things. My least favourite SP episode is of course, "A Million Little Fibers" followed by "Bloody Mary".

However, I don't hate everything about it and there are actually some things I love about it. Season 10's "Tsst" is not only easily the best South Park episode, it's one of the greatest TV episodes ever. None of what I just said at the start of this post applies to this episode. I bought Season 10 on DVD just so I could own this episode. My next favourite episode (well, double-episode), "Cartoon Wars", is not only incredibly spot-on in it's observations of Family Guy and King of the Hill, it manages to make me laugh quite hard, even when I respect Family Guy so much for featuring the freshest humour I've seen on TV since maybe Blackadder.

I respect Matt and Trey greatly for sharing an admiration for The Simpsons. Some other things I like about it: While it's maybe not as daring as Drawn Together, which all round is a brilliant show, South Park is still daring, even if some things are done in incredibly poor taste - and I mean that in the most unfriendly way possible; and last but not least, South Park is gay-friendly, which I could not like or respect more about it.
