Entitled '200' is South Park's 200th Episode


Thought I'd write this thing seeing I said I would a bit ago. So here it goes.

'200' is the landmark 200th installment of the great 'South Park' animated comedy series that airs in the U.S. on Comedy Central. Now in it's 14th season and still going strong. This not so PC series still manages to shock and disturb with the little shits we've come to love.

The episode starts by making a joke about rehashing jokes from earlier, which they in turn do themselves on numerous occasions, referencing some of the more well known moments from the last 199 episodes. It then tears the piss right out of the couch jumping insane Scientologist motherfucker Tom Cruise, who they meet packing fudge in a chocolate factory (Get it?), throwing back to the closet episode. He cracks the shits and gets all of his celebrity friends, all of whom have been torn apart by South Park in the past, to bring action against the town of South park for slander or some such bullshit.

They manage to keep it fresh for the most part, not being over self referencial, while still bringing back old plots and jokes to make for a great episode.

I'm not going to keep going, mostly because I could not be fucked but we do see Mr Hat again, Jennifer Lopez/Mitch Conner (Cartman's hand criminal whatsy), Mecha-Streisand, The Gingers, Muhammad and of course, Randy being awesome and overdramatic. The episode ended on a cliff-hanger with us still wanting to know who Cartman's father is, again (apparently it's not his hermaphrodite mother, who the fuck knew?), and whether we will see Muhammad's face, should Comedy Central decide to 'puss-out' again or not. Interesting note, Muhammed appears in the credits in every friggin episode but no-one seems to give a fuck about that.

The next episode is called '201' and I for one, will be watching.
