South Park starts season 11 with a naughty word

But oh the fun they have with it and all else

from JoeUser Forums

I put up a forum message about this one last nite (when JU was apparently having some problems accessing my blog), but wanted to expand a bit on things.

Because of the nature of the premiere episode of the 11th season of South Park, I'm not going to blatantly spoil the show here in the main article.  I will warn readers that I *will* blatantly spoil the show in the comments area, so if you haven't seen the show yet and don't want to know what it's about, then DO NOT jump into the comments area without saying you were not warned.

Again, the comments area will have blatant spoilers on last night's (3-7-2007) airing of the premiere of South Park, Season 11.  Further discussion there please.

South Park really started Season 11 with a bang -- and many utterances of a pretty 'naughty' word.  No, not the S-word that they abused in a prior episode.  Not this time.  This time it was the N-word.  One that the fairer skinned part of the population shouldn't use, at least not according to the darker skinned part of the population.

For the current time period (approximately 1 week), you can see the start of the show here (a video): South Park at Comedy Central

After the current week and once the next new show airs, the link will likely take you to the video for the next (new) show.

The title of last night's episode was: "With Apologies to Jesse Jackson." So, obviously, Jesse Jackson was of course involved as a character in the show (not him, but a likeness of him). As usual, being involved in the show doesn't necessarily mean that South Park crew is going to treat you with respect.

I've said in the past that I think the Tom Cruise and Scientologists really inspired the South Park creators. They had been in a bit of a lull and seemed to be somewhat resting on their laurels and prior work. Ever since the Tom Cruise flap, and especially since the flap with Isaac Hayes, Parker and Stone (the creators, writers, etc., folks behind the show) have done highly inspired work. Some of the best shows they've ever done really.

The premiere for Season 11 was one such show. It started with Stan's father -- Randy -- as a contestant on Wheel of Fortune, trying to win the bonus round. From there it went something like this:

Wheel of Fortune... clue: people that annoy you.

We spot you R T S L E

I want B N G and an O

7 letters... starts with N... continues with Blank, G G E R S

And just what word would Randy blurt out?!

Apparently Randy, much like the cartoon cameraman of color that was filming the show-within-a-show who did one heck of a double-take when the board showed up that way, wasn't thinking of the word Naggers.

The rest of the show was a great Cartman centric episode about sensitivity and such. Again, one of the better episodes of South Park. I would say in a long time, but it's really only as far back as last season when the show was also firing on all cylinders.

Don't miss the opportunity to see the show that "everyone is talking about." It's that's good.

It was a pretty decent episode, in my opinion. I also liked that whole "little person" thing.
