Summary: Jonathon Taylor is an ass!
Review: SOUTH PARK IS A TOTAL ANARCHIC CLASSIC!
I read the review by Jonathon Taylor below and I have got to say:
What a complete ass! That review has to be a joke, right?!
He doesn't like South Park but he likes Dragon Ball Z, Shania Twain and, oh dear me, CELEBRITY DEATHMATCH!!
Like I said: What a complete ass!
The guy has written 410 reviews so far - he obviously has nothing better to do. Bet he's one of these irritating people who love the sound of their own voice a little bit too much, eh? Bet he cums in his little pants everytime he sees a review of his printed - the only thrill he ever gets in an otherwise sad and lonely egocentric life!
Hey Jonathon: Get a job, you sad, crazy fool!
And, please, somebody strap him up before he writes anymore reviews...

Summary: Pretty good
Review: This rules! The episode were good, but I felt that censoring the language was unncessary. I mean, if you buy a movie, you normally don't want to hear *BLEEP* instead of words like the F-word and S-word. I also think they should've included the shorts Jesus vs. Frosty and Jesus vs. Santa. I have never seen them and would like to. They should also show the pilot for the same reason. My favorite episode was the Halloween one because I like zombies and vampires, and stuff like that. I would also like to write my opinion on certain reviews. Some people have complained about the show, and feel it needs to be protested against, and gotten rid of. THAT IS WRONG!!!!!!!!!!! Children should NOT be watching South Park. On the cover it says it's intended for mature audiences only and it also says that before each and every episode. Just because some people are stupid enough to show it to their kids, doesn't mean they have to ruin it for all of us. Those people kind of remind me of Kyle's mom. She can't discipline her child, so she protests everything and everyone. If the show is cancelled, I will write to the network every day demanding that it be put back on the air. Those kind of people need to learn that just because something is about kids and it's animated, it doesn't mean it's for kids!

Summary: South Park is the greatest cartoon ever!
Review: I would just like to say that this show RULES! Also, to all of the parentswho mistakenly believed that this was a kid show, how could you be so naive? Is the Simpsons a "kid show"? Is Family Guy a "kid show"? Just because it's animated doesn't mean it's Child Appropriate. And to all of those who protest this magnificent show, watch the movie. Also, to all those fans who share my opinion, power to ya!

Summary: Get it through your heads. THIS IS NOT A SHOW FOR CHILDREN!
Review: I came across some reviews from people who let their children watch South Park and then complain that it is offensive and not appropriate. Then then try to rally other people to protest against the show.

If you have children and you don't have the disipline (or inteligence) to monitor what TV programs and movies that they watch then you have no right to protest against shows like South Park. South Park is a show intended for adults. It even displays a warning at the start of each episode advising of the shows content and advise on who should watch it.

If your children are watching shows like South Park in your presence or behind your back then it is no one elses fault but your own. TV shows and movies have classifications for a reason. You have no right to try and ban a show that is indended and recommended to be viewed by adults.

Summary: Just tape off the TV
Review: These DVD editions are even MORE edited than the TV versions. Why bother buying them? Just tape them off TV, like I do.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Delightfully Twisted.
Review: Some times shows or movies will try to be funny by being twisted but end up just being sick and twisted. Trey Parker and Matt Stone, however, were able to make South Park the funniest show ever but still offending people. Nothing in South Park offends me, but I understand why people would be offended by it. I also never felt the swearing was that bad, but whatever. Perhaps if the kids were real actors, it would be very wrong, but since they're cartoon characters voiced by grown men, it doesn't bother me. Make no mistake: South Park is very un-PC and twisted, but extremely funny because it always manages to make a point. The first season contains many classics. My favorite episode is Tom's Rhinoplasty, guest starring Natasha Henstridge (wooooo........ baby) from Species. That episode is really funny, but the ending makes me sad. I don't know what I'm trying to say in this review, but I guess me point is: go out and buy this, unless you have all the best-ofs. The special features are kind of weak, but the show is worthy. Get it today.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: GReat
Review: This is what everyone of us had been waiting for so long the complete collection of seasons. Yes, I know its not a "perfect" dvd, it doesnt have commentary on it, etc.

But when I buy a movie or a Dvd, my main concern is the main content, the reason why you bought it, to see the entire first season of the funniest cartoon show ever made.

I read one article of someone really angry because it said it was a childrens show, you must have felt really stupid if you realized that this is an Mature show, for people who are MATURE.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Done Better The First Time Around
Review: I have both the first and second season. I found the first to be a crisper copy than the second. But I did like both seasons equally other than that. I do agree with a review from the first season that the writers would have done much better just giving some back ground information between episodes rather than trying to ham it up like they did. Once was amusing, but by about the third show they just got annoying. Especially since you had to scan past them and couldn't cut to the show. Otherwise this was a lot of fun.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Yeah, this is an adult series!
Review: Contrary to what a previous reviewer wrote, neither Comedy Central nor the writers of South Park have ever claimed this series to be a "children's" show or a show that parents and children can watch together. That is why the show airs late at late and has an "M" (Maturity) rating. Yes, the humor is very vulgar, but there are many people who enjoy this type of humor, hence the popularity of the series.

This first season really developed some interesting characters: the sensitive Stan (who would turn into quite a self righteous jerk in later seasons), ill-fated, sick-minded and poverty-stricken Kenny, selfish and uncaring Cartman, and the angry Jewish kid Kyle not to mention Chef, Mr. Garrison, the power-hungry mayor, etc. Plus, the season covers some interesting issues in the frank, disturbing way that only an animated adult show can achieve: genetic engineering, assisted suicide, and the subject on most people's minds, alien abductions. No, it is not for the easily-offended; however, it never claimed to be.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Ridiculous. Offensive. Mean. Stupid. Vulgar. Foul....
Review: and disgusting! This is the worst excuse for a "Children's Show" I've ever seen. I noticed my five year old and my eight year old watching it and assumed, since it was an animated show, it was good for my children. And sure enough, my friends told me it was a great, funny show children and adults could watch together. So, I sat down one day to watch it with my children. I was utterly horrified. The episode we watched had the following vular insults and foul "humor":

the fat kid called everybody a dildo and when he called his cat such his mother said "Well, then I know a certain kitty-kitty who is sleeping with mommy tonight...

in addition, there were tons of filthy sex jokes completely innapropriate for a kid's show. The school chef sang a song about laying a women down by the fire and making "sweet" love to her.

Parents, I urge you to protest this show. It is intended for children but not appropriate for them. I hpe to see it destroyed and burned so our children's inds are not warped any further.

PS: I couldn't figure out how to write a review without showing my e-mail address, so I went under a children's review.
