Boner Kawanger Posted March 19, 2009 Report Posted March 19, 2009 Best ending since "Who is Cartman's Father?"
WCS Posted March 19, 2009 Report Posted March 19, 2009 Ok what the fuck. That was BULLSHIT. Yeah, that's the joke. There wasn't a whole lot of meat here, but I guess it was an okay episode. As I mentioned, I can't not like a Cartman-centered episode so I liked this one. Though, it did seem kind of one note with Cartman being upstaged over and over and over again. A little monotonous, but broken up nicely with Professor Chaos' 'triumphant' return. I REALLY thought Mysterion was Kenny until the end. Great payoff.
Fuzzy Dunlop Posted March 19, 2009 Report Posted March 19, 2009 Mysterion could be Kenny. He could be anyone.
foleyfanforever88 Posted March 19, 2009 Report Posted March 19, 2009 Ok what the fuck. That was BULLSHIT. Yeah, that's the joke. I know. But it's not funny. It's stupid.
WCS Posted March 19, 2009 Report Posted March 19, 2009 Mysterion could be Kenny. He could be anyone. Yep. What I meant was that I figured it'd be revealed to be Kenny, but of course, it wasn't definitively. So, I got swerved and I'm okay with that. Ok what the fuck. That was BULLSHIT. Yeah, that's the joke. I know. But it's not funny. It's stupid. I say po-tay-to, you say po-tah-to, you're wrong. Just kidding. I laughed because it was an inventive way to poke fun at themselves, but there's definitely an element of bait and switch involved. I understand that reaction, even if I didn't have it.
Nightwing Posted March 19, 2009 Report Posted March 19, 2009 Well, Mysterion can only be 4 people, because Cartman said he had said it once. So it could only be Clyde, Craig, Kenny, or Stan. I thought it was Clyde, personally. And I loved the episode. Not only was it an excellent riff on "dark" Superhero movies (Loved someone noticing Cartman's gravelly voice), but Professor Chaos sealed it for me. I loved that people in the town actually knew who he was.
Jaxxson Mayhem Posted March 19, 2009 Author Report Posted March 19, 2009 Yeah. I thought it was funny everyone knew who all the superheros were minus the coon. The gravely voice was awesome and wasn't sure it was on purpose until about 10 minutes in.
Smues Posted March 19, 2009 Report Posted March 19, 2009 Didn't care for it. Only part I really liked was Cartman doing the "He's gone!" "No I'm over here now!" thing.
The Ill One Posted March 20, 2009 Report Posted March 20, 2009 The last two have been pretty damn funny, although my friends and I still lose it with the black guy being interviewed about Mysterion. I've been trying to find a picture when his head is cocked to the side and that lil' smile.

foleyfanforever88 Posted March 20, 2009 Report Posted March 20, 2009 Vista's snipping tool is pretty rad Macs have a similar tool called Grab. It is indeed rad.
luke-o Posted March 20, 2009 Report Posted March 20, 2009 OK episode. I think the gravely voices where a rip on Dark Knight mostly. And I think Mysterion was Clyde, he was sleeping in the classroom while Cartman was giving his speech. So he knew he'd be on the roof at that specific time.

I've been trying to find a picture when his head is cocked to the side and that lil' smile. Vista's snipping tool is pretty rad Yea, that was great to see SP referencing that newsclip about people saying they saw a leprechaun from a few years ago. Jimmy Kimmel shows it on his show every St. Pat's day. For those who don't know, there was this video online from a news broadcast a few years ago, where these people in a town claim they saw a leprechaun at night. First they showed a sketch (in reality a child's drawing) Then some lady yells "it's probably a crackhead!" At one point, a black man is shown yelling "Everyone who saw a leprechaun, say yeah!"and looks exactly like the pic above. So SP basically parodied it. Sorry if everyone knew, but I thought I was the only one to get that reference since no one mentioned it directly. But I enjoyed the episode okay. Not the best, but nice to see Prof. Chaos return.
haws bah gawd Posted March 22, 2009 Report Posted March 22, 2009 I finally got the chance to watch this last night. I thought Mysterion was going to end up being either Stan or Kenny, but I'll agree it was most likely Clyde. I've enjoyed the new episodes, but I have to admit I kind of miss the old style of South Park with the crappy animation and crazy Mecha-Streisand stuff. At least the giant fire-breathing Mickey Mouse kind of went back to that . When did South Park go from a "quiet, hick mountain town" to a city, anyways? I remember them having just one policeman in Officer Barbrady, and now they have an entire police department. I think it was around Season 7 or 8 that all this happened, but I could be wrong. I also miss Craig randomly flipping people off, but that's a topic for another day. Edit: I nearly choked on my soda when I saw the "Obama - Change" poster with an angry "WHEN?" spray painted under it. Awesome.
Boner Kawanger Posted March 22, 2009 Report Posted March 22, 2009 It does make sense that they'd eventually hire a police force after stuff like Mecha Streisand, if you're into continuity
Eddie Posted March 23, 2009 Report Posted March 23, 2009 When did South Park go from a "quiet, hick mountain town" to a city, anyways?

I also miss Craig randomly flipping people off, but that's a topic for another day. You mean when it was a quiet, little, redneck, meshuggeneh, white-trash, podunk, kick ass mountain town.
Nightwing Posted March 23, 2009 Report Posted March 23, 2009 It's also the "Park County" police station. So it might be closer to a large Sheriff's office or something. ... Why am I even writing this?
Nightwing Posted March 26, 2009 Report Posted March 26, 2009 This is the greatest episode of all time. The chicken just sealed it.
Jingus Posted March 26, 2009 Report Posted March 26, 2009 Holy shitballs, this season is making me feel the urge to do things like post lolcat jpegs with Epic Win captions in this thread. Tonight was just perfect from beginning ("...aaandit'sgone!") to end ("We thank our saviour..."). Fan-fucking-tastic.
strummer Posted March 26, 2009 Report Posted March 26, 2009 fantastic episode and man you pretty much had to go to Catholic school to get all those subtle jokes
foleyfanforever88 Posted March 26, 2009 Report Posted March 26, 2009 Great episode. The return of "theytookourjobs!" was hilarious.
The Ill One Posted March 26, 2009 Report Posted March 26, 2009 That's now one of my new favorites and the kazoo playing while the headless chicken ran was perfect. ("Poof!")
Conspiracy_Victim Posted March 26, 2009 Report Posted March 26, 2009 The kazoo turned it from "funny" to "classic moment". Brilliant TV.
haws bah gawd Posted March 26, 2009 Report Posted March 26, 2009 Funny episode. The Last Supper spoof towards the end was wrong as hell, but funny all at the same time. Another great episode. I don't think a Randy Marsh-centered episode has disappointed, yet.
KobashiFS Posted March 26, 2009 Report Posted March 26, 2009 I normally don't like the social commentary episodes, and last night's episode was no exception. It had it's hilarious moments, but overall I thought it was just average. For those who don't know, there was this video online from a news broadcast a few years ago, where these people in a town claim they saw a leprechaun at night. First they showed a sketch (in reality a child's drawing) Then some lady yells "it's probably a crackhead!" At one point, a black man is shown yelling "Everyone who saw a leprechaun, say yeah!"and looks exactly like the pic above. So SP basically parodied it. And I think Mysterion was Clyde, he was sleeping in the classroom while Cartman was giving his speech. So he knew he'd be on the roof at that specific time. Could be Clyde was sleepy from being out all night thwarting crime, thus making him sleepy the following day.
Jericholic82 Posted March 30, 2009 Report Posted March 30, 2009 thanks for the video link, AWESOME episode on the economy this week, and Kyle's argument was very valid. Great to see the "tookrjobs" guys again.
Youth N Asia Posted March 31, 2009 Report Posted March 31, 2009 I've been watching the episodes on comedycentral.com uncensored. So-so episode this week, but a strong season overall
migoli Posted April 2, 2009 Report Posted April 2, 2009 Well that sure was a dud. I barely got a few chuckles, mostly from Randy.
