I will remain biast Do you agree though?
I wont say wether or not I agree or why I am asking what you think of it.
Question is south park merely
A trashy , disrespectful, uncltured, undiversified, unmorale, volgur, "white trash" (as some one said) show?
There is what is in question but I guess what I was questioning is what some one I know said to me...
"South park is a trashy, white trash show"
South park is a pretty good show, although there are times when they take it a little too far.
Thats whats funny about it. Thats the whole humor of the show.
You know what? South Park has been around for so long now, so I do not understand why people moan about how trashy it is now. It's actually very simple: if you don't like it, do not watch it. :)

SOuth park has no class and is a trashy disrespectful , unclutured, undiversfied show is why I like it.
Ahh Satire. *Eats it up like Candy*
Disrespectful? Yes. All of those other things? No.
There is far worse crap on TV then South Park. Jerry Springer and COPS have to be the most low-brow shows I have ever seen.
The treat everyone fairly, they dont rag on just one religion, or one culture. And its very funny and ironic, and they actually make deep political statements if you look past all the goofy stuff.
WHat do you call a Jewish ladies boobs? Joobs.
South Park is one of the best things there is on TV "don't call me fat you smurfing jew!"
"Cartman did you say the F word?"
"Jew?"
The best character ever:

Thanks for telling us something we already know.Quote:

No, it's tired and boring now.
Butters is the weirdest character I've ever seen on a show. xD
Ive got something for you in my front pocket
South Park is equally mean and disrespectful to everyone, so I have no gripe with it. I don't really watch it much nowadays, but it's still really funny. :)
"Daaaad! Tom Cruise won't come out of the closet!"
Best line ever
Kyles mom is a bitch
Season 9 is absolute madness "ma'am you have hippies" they gather for a massive jamfest and South Park is taken over, Cartmon takes the piss out of the core and goes on a suicide mission in a drill machine then plays Slayer - Raining Blood lol.
Rubedo: The episode about "The Passion of the Christ" and Mel Gibson still stands out in my mind.
Trowa: All I know is that I will miss Chef.
It is in fact all of the above. It's also funny as hell. Most of the time.
I fail to see how this is a bad thing.Quote:

I love south park, its prime was long ago ( season 2 in fact ), but still enjoyable, when its not too OTT
The special olympics episode is my favorite. Caartmaaan! :p 2nd is the one were Butters gets a ninja star in the eye.
nothing could describe it better than....Quote:

While not as funny as it was a few years ago, South Park is still one of the most penetrating social satires on television today. Sometimes it's just gross to be funny, but quite often it's a deliberate criticism of some part of society. It makes fun of everyone and everything, and the commentary it makes on society usually makes me think just as much as it makes me laugh. Unlike shows such as The Simpsons or Family Guy, South Park actually has something to say.
I agreeQuote:

I told them not to take this stuff seriously. If you do, you'll get in trouble. Just enjoy it. Remember your high-school yearbook? You look at those pictures now, you laugh, right? That's what South Park is. You got to laugh at it. Because we cursed, but we just didn't dare let the principals, the teachers, or the preachers hear it. And we didn't turn out bad, okay? Just look at it that way. Also, usually there's some kind of moral message at the end for the kids, by the Chef."

Take care all.
South Parks rocks. It is way beyond liberal- it goes to the far left side of the :shutter: progressive/libertarians, lol .Quote:

I'll agree with everything Azar said. Except I think it's funnier now than it ever was. And while it's not apparent, South Park has alot of class for what it is. They're not afraid to say what needs to be said on most of the issues going on. It's unfortunate that they're presented in such crude manners, as the people who need to be watching the show don't because of that. But the crude mannerisms are what make it great.
There's alot of truth in that show. More than people realize. It's one of my favorite shows on television right now.
I agree that it is disrespectful and uncultured, but I don't care, cause it's funny.
*Votes who cares, it's funny.*
I find it as entertaining as ever. Not as laugh out loud funny as it once was, but there are still some sweet moments scattered throughout every episode. The one with Wing was great.
Says the man who bolted like a cat with it's tail on fire when they lampooned Scientology...:pQuote:

In most episodes, the adults of S.Park (and Cartman) act like total asses, but it's the kids who point out how smurfed up they're acting and teach us all a wonderful moral. :cool: Best cartoon ever!
Don't diss South Park.
As far as i'm concerned, the things and people they make fun of, have had it coming for a very long time. Whether it's religion, the president, or hookers from Las Vegas(although i don't think they've ever made fun of those???). I show no sympathy for any of the groups that are made fun of and i find it quite HILARIOUS!!! Especially the show about gingers....lol So no i don't share your view of it being trashy. It's satire at its best and Cartman is a god...
p.s. NO KITTY that's my POT PIE:D
Guys, take notice that he ISN'T saying that it is his opinion that S.P. is trashy, etc... That is an opinion that he heard from someone else. My best guess would be he heard an Evangelical preacher say something nasty about it, or maybe an old, hard-nosed librarian or someone...:rolleyes2Quote:

I'm with Spiff and Azar. They make fun of my religion, too, but you have to take that kind of stuff with a grain of salt.
Just thought I'd also mention that just because South Park says it doesn't mean you can say it here, though. These forums are family friendly, and South Park is not rated on the same level. Keep it clean in here, guys, as difficult as it might be for some of you.
EDIT: And although I don't like the idea of changing the main four characters, I still think that Butters is the best character on the show, yeah. He rocks.
south park is funny, i like mr. hankey the christmas poo and cartman.
I prefered it when I was in high school and the humor was amazing. Now Im 50/50 with it. Some episodes make me laugh, whilst others make me think "Is this considered entertainment now?!"
Agreed, Butters is a darling. I love the episode dedicated to him in series 5 I think it was. When Butters had his own TV show and it was his parents aniversary. Not saying anymore cause you need to view it, its classic!Quote:

That, and the creators are self-proclaimed libertarians, so they definitely make sense.
I love South Park its flippin sweet and funny i love Butter, Kenny and Jimmy
When the show started it was all about pushing boundaries. Sure it was funny, but there wasn't a lot to offer. The past few years the show has grown into a full-fledged commentary on American society which happens to be even funnier than the stuff they did before. The show is great.
