Trivia

South Park began in 1992 when Trey Parker and Matt Stone, at the time students at the University of Colorado, met in a film class and created an animated short called Jesus vs. Frosty.

South Park's early episodes tended to be shock value-oriented and featured more slapstick-style humor than later episodes

The show's original theme song was a musical score performed by the band Primus.

South Park has been nominated for the Emmy Award for Outstanding Animated Program seven times

In 2007, Time magazine included the show on their list of the "100 Best s of All Time"

The characters of Terrance and Phillip were created because Trey Parker and Matt Stone kept getting complaints about the show being "nothing but bad Animation & Children and fart jokes"

Guest  - Very Good   |2008-06-20 23:01:31 South Park is one of the most misunderstood, and also the most intelligent shows on television. South Park is a satirical look on most anything from Western society - politics, the media, today's youth, celebrities, violence in our society, and much much more. However, instead of presenting these issues as they are, they alternately project them through the exploits of four young boys in South Park, Colorado. Unfortunately, many people take the show solely at face value, refusing to see the intelligence in it - South Park is admittedly filled with racist and sexist jokes, along with other offensive material. The problem lies within the fact that most people don't seem to understand the concept of satire and self parody. I admit that I, myself, was one of these people - for years I refused to watch that "garbage," until finally a friend forced me to actually watch a whole episode, and I realized that the show was actually making a point. So, if you haven't done so, go - watch an episode. You'll feel smarter when you're done Reply | Quote 0   0
