chaosrage 0 Report post Posted March 23, 2006 The episode really was unfunny until the over-the-top death scene, and that was more "I can't believe what I'm seeing" shock value than humor, as well. They had a pretty good ending, but it looked like they were scraping to fill the other 19 minutes. A disappointing opener. You just don't like it because you're a member of the club.

Guest fanofcoils Report post Posted March 23, 2006 Is your new hobby proving beyond a shadow of a doubt that you are a bloody twat or something? Jesus Christ. You have the comprehension "skills" of two year old...a two year old without very good comprehension skills at all even. The episode did drag after the first 5 or so minutes, however I never mentioned I couldn't understand it or pay attention to it. My comprehension skills never lack, I just don't usually pay attention to boring stuff because I don't like boring stuff. In the somewhat boring middle of the South Park episode I mostly paid attention to it and still understood the plot. When I go to movies I take a chance that a movie can be boring or have a lot of boring scenes, and sometimes a movie is like this and sometimes it isn't. Only when a movie is that boring to me I don't pay attention but a lot of movies are not boring to me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cheech Tremendous 0 Report post Posted March 23, 2006 I'm not sure what I think of last night's episode. I liked it and thought it was well done, but didn't find it all that funny. There aren't that many lines or scenes that I will recall in the future. However, it was a fitting end to the Chef character, and I thought Matt and Trey handled the whole thing really well.

Vyce 0 Report post Posted March 23, 2006 I hate to be snobbish here, because I fucking hate people who talk this way about movies / TV shows, but in this case I will: if you didn't think that episode wasn't brilliantly funny, then you just didn't 'get it'. That episode was a goddamn masterful parody of Scientology, the controversy with Hayes, the controversy over the old Scientology episode being pulled, even a parody of past SP episodes. It was fantastic. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest fanofcoils Report post Posted March 23, 2006 It was a parody of scientology? I didn't notice. Perhaps if I did notice it that part of it would be funny. This episode started out very strong but turned into a run of the mill episode or slightly above that. Either way it was a pretty paint by the numbers episode after the first five minutes. I thought because of the beginning, this episode was above average. I also liked the whale episode last season, that was one of the funnier ones that gets little to no credit.

That episode was a goddamn masterful parody of Scientology, the controversy with Hayes, the controversy over the old Scientology episode being pulled, even a parody of past SP episodes. It was fantastic. I did get it. But, it was just wasn't funny. I get the Isaac Hayes controversy... but, I really don't care to see them dedicate an entire episode to send a "message" to Hayes. They already did a Scientology parody, amongst the many other religious parodies they've done. The molesting kids joke went on and on, and again was hardly original. But, that might be due to me catching up on most of the prior seasons, recently. It just seemed rehashed and dull. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SuperJerk 0 Report post Posted March 23, 2006 The show is in it's 10th season, not it's 10th year. Kind of like the apprentice (and Idol) is in it's 5th season but only been on for 3-4 years. Huh? South Park debuted nine years ago (1997), therefore, its beginning its tenth year. 1997=1st year 1998=2nd year 1999=3rd year 2000=4th year 2001=5th year 2002=6th year 2003=7th year 2004=8th year 2005=9th year 2006=10th year Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest El Satanico Report post Posted March 23, 2006 It was funny, but I didn't like the episode until the speech at the funeral saved it for me. Up to that point, it just seemed like a childish and petty attack on Isaac. Something like that jackass Vince McMahon would do. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You are right. I didn't see the scientology connection in the latest episode last night when I watched it but I now see some connection ONLY in the repeating in the "this is what they really believe" joke.

Cowboy Battlenuts 0 Report post Posted March 24, 2006 I'm not suprised fanofcoils didn't like it much, I've yet to hear of a robot with a sense of humor... Jesus fuck people, it was funny or it wasn't, don't pull all these tired cliche's out of your ass or try to break down the fundamental aspects of what makes something funny. Either you laughed or you didn't, and if you didn't, why do you assume anyone would care? Keep it to yourself so no one assumes your an uptight douche bag.

I'd respect them a little more if they just went for a full out burial. If they wanted to take the high road,then they shouldn't have spent 90% of the episode shitting on the guy.

Guest fanofcoils Report post Posted March 24, 2006 I don't think it was making a joke that it was copying the scientology joke, I thought it was reusing the scientology joke about "this is what they really believe" to make a joke about it which was mildly funny.
