Credit Big Will (you know,
SP Scriptorium)for letting us know about this site with a
bit of info on the Orgazmo DVD. Also check out the official site
for a great forum and more info. |
Someone mentioned to us that we should have a forum for this site, but we kinda already do. I'm just such a slackass
that you don't know about it yet. Well, some of you do, but not many, but.. yeah.. Shpadoinkle_Ceri (who many in the
MNT web circle already know) set up an EZboard dedicated to the boys, and she's letting us kind of adopt it as the
unofficial forum for this site. So go to Fudge, Packer?
already!
Oh yeah, and we added a buttload (yes, that's the technical term) more videos, so go check them out and be patient
because while some of them are only a handful of bytes, some of them are many megs. And we're able to bring you all
this video goodness thanks to our webhost mbuna who is a stud with a big, huge, hard....drive array.

I got news news NEWS! First up - South Park has received it's third Emmy nomination!
Check out the Emmy Awards website to see
a complete list of nominees. South Park has the shortest list of hangers-on - produceres, writers and what-not. Could this mean
something? South Park's first Emmy nomination came in 1998 for "Big Gay Al's Big Gay Boat Ride", and it's second in 2000 for
"Chinpoko Mon." The Daily Show with Jon Stewart is Comedy Central's only other Emmy nominee, with three nominations - one for
Stewart himself. He rules!
Here's an interesting view of the nomination:
And in a classic Emmy twist, Comedy Central's "South Park" grabbed a nomination that was at least partially related to
Sept. 11. It is up for an animated-series statuette for an episode dubbed "Osama Bin Laden Has Farty Pants."
I'm not sure why that's "classic" or a "twist", but whatever.
From the lighter side of things, silly Minnesotans and their twisted mnemonic device-like activities have yeilded several
drainage ponds named for Simpsons, Happy Days and Star Wars characters. The state hydrologist threatens to start using
South Park characters next. Do these ponds have signs in front of them? I'd love to have my picture taken next to Big Gay
Al's Big Gay Minnesota Drainage Pond.

Zuzu says: YAY! More Craig! I laughed so hard when the boys started grunting at each other. And who else but Cartman
would play "Lambs?" I had to watch this one on the Real One player, so I can't wait until Saturday when I can watch it on
TV and really get to see everything. MORE CRAIG! MORE CRAIG! MORE CRAIG! UH unh unh unh!

I haven't seen the new episode yet, and I'm blaming it on my job, even though it's really all my fault. Work is
interfering with my Matt&Trey time! DAMN THEM! Ah well, I'll put up my review when I see the episode...I'll probably
download it today...gotta love IRC. In the meantime, at least one of us has her priorities straight:
Girly says: My review is titled: How I would like to
be like Bebe. Just kidding. I really liked this
episode. It had references to two of my favorite
movies! I thought Timmy's ape sounds were hilarious!
Being a girly with ample Ah-tahs I can identify with
Bebe's stuggle. However, let's be honest here, we ALL
know that big titties give us extra brain power.
Now....Put the lotion in the FUCKING basket!!!!

Another one from our bestest buddy breayle at
SPS.com:
It's Part 2 of Matt & Trey's Most Notorious Episode Intro.
This one is HUGE (16.8MB) so please be a patient downloader! It's definately worth the wait - super high-quality, kiddies!
Damn, I love it when Matt makes that awful face when they come back from listening to the Terrance & Phillip hate voice-mail.
That's Comedy with a capital C. |
The Video page has been updated to reflect these newest editions, and will be growing even larger within the next few days.
Of course we'll let you know right here when we add stuff! Also, we have NOT forgotten about the Picture Pages - we know
how much everyone is looking forward to the photos!
Man, I love cartoons. Here's a pretty good article from
Calendar Live
that mentions our boys, along with Mike Judge, and one of my favorites, John K of "Ren and Stimpy" fame.
This phenomenon is not exclusive to television, where budgets rarely allow for A-list voice talent
or where shows such as "South Park" (whose creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone were actors before becoming cartoonists)
and "Beavis and Butt-head" originate in their creator's dining rooms, voices and all.
Somehow I don't think budgets had anything to do with these guys voicing their own creations. I'm more inclined to think
that they had a pretty good idea of what they wanted the characters to sound like, and they were able to sound like that, so
why bother hiring someone else and trying to teach them?

Zuzu had her turn, now gaze in wonder at this review of "Free Hat":
GirlyGirl says: I think this was the best one so far
from this batch of the season. I thought they were
very clever and not too preachy. (I've felt that the
last two were a little heavy handed.) The spoof off of
Indiana Jones was just awesome! But, of course, the
highlight of the show for me was the "commercial". The
"bad ass" aliens, the improved starship, seeing Matt
and Trey: priceless. I dig Trey's new do. The shaggy
look is very becoming on him.

Thanks to Jim at South Park USA, we are proud to present
Matt & Trey's appearance on last night's episode (much sooner than originally expected)! This clip may show up on the site
in another format after a couple of days, as well. (I'm playing with new software.) Click here to see the men! (As always, right-click to save.) Has Matt been working out, or what?!

Look for a couple of great screengrabs from tonight's episode coming tomorrow! If you haven't seen the episode, you REALLY must!
Zuzu Says: Wonderful episode! I absolutely love Indiana Jones, so seeing the SP parallel to Raiders of the Lost Ark was sooooo coooool! And that little surprise "commercial" (I don't want to give too much away for those who haven't had a chance to see it yet) was very unexpected! I was freaking out. :)

According to
South Park Studios there will be an anniversary special celebrating South Park's fifth birthday.
The Anniversary Special will consist of three episodes from the series uninterrupted for the
first time ever on television. It will celebrate five years of "South Park" with favorite episodes, best highlights
and an exclusive look at an all-star, celebrity invited packed party celebrating the milestone. Also included will be
special footage of the series' creators, Matt Stone and Trey Parker, hosting the block. Commentary is also provided by
celebrities including Danny DeVito, Hugh Hefner, Chris Klein and Jay Leno.
Sounds pretty sweet to me! I've never ordered pay per view before. There's a first time for everything I guess. :)

Your eyes do not deceive you - those are actually links to sections!
There's not much *in* those sections, but we're working on it. Right now you can find a very primitive
episode guide for South Park, some awesome That's My Bush mp3s,
and an excuse as to why the Eye Candy isn't up yet.
We update at least once
a day, folks, so be sure to check back often!

If you made it here, that means you have a lot more patience than
most people. I apologize for the slow loading speed at the moment, butI'm looking into it with our host.
In the meantime, did you know Norman Lear, the creator of such great sitcoms as "All in the Family,"
"Good Times," and "The Jeffersons," is a South Park fan? Mr. Lear said so in an article at
Extra TV.
It just makes sense, though - South Park couldn't have made it as a regularly-aired television show without Mr. Lear's
trailblazing efforts. Lear, referring to "All in the Family": “A lot of people didn't realize that the show chose to
make a horse's ass out of a bigot.” He could just as easily be talking about Garrison, no?
Speaking of people not realizing things, this review from the Nando Times seems to have completely missed the point on the Powerpuff Girls.
This little film is so slovenly done, so primitive in technique, that it can't really be called animation.
Much like the episodes of "South Park" and the movie version that followed, "The Powerpuff Girls Movie" is done in the
style of child-like drawings that look as if they were cut from colored construction paper and then set in motion. But
while "South Park" comes with a certain inside cynicism because it's geared directly to adults, this movie is jaded in
a different way. Its cynicism is based on its assumption that kids will sit still for anything, so long as it's loud and
always moving.
THE POWERPUFF GIRLS ARE SUPPOSED TO BE DRAWN AND ANIMATED LIKE THAT! It's part of their charm! As Buttercup would
say, "Yeah, you big dummy!"

Yeah...I just watched last night's episode. I felt like maybe there was
just too much going on. Sometimes the subplots/multiple plots work well for Matt & Trey, but I just felt like they
were tossing too much at me this time. Of course, it could be one of those episodes that I enjoy more after watching a
couple of times - And those often turn out to be my favorites.

Well, that episode was......different. They definately seem to be going
for shock value this season. As usual, good points were made about society with a heathly dose of humor to wash
it down. Overall: good stuff.

I can't tell if this review of South Park Season 5,found at
Ananova.com, is a good one or not; you be the judge:
As they approached the close of this fifth series, the
show's creators, Trey Parker and Matt Stone, clearly encountered no difficulties
in coming up with even more vile filth. Despite setting the series up,
right from the start, as the most depraved and confrontational cartoon
ever made, there's still no shortage of ideas here.
In The Entity (aka The Ginger Device), Mr Hand's comment about Enrique
Iglesias's gyrating ass gives Mr Garrison an idea for a new form of transportation.
Here Comes The Neighbourhood finds Will Smith and wife Jada Pinkett plus
the likes of Snoop Dog, Bill Cosby and Oprah Winfrey moving to South Park,
prompting Mr Garrison to suggest that the locals dress in white sheets
to spook the rich folks out.
Kenny Dies sees a truck, which is carrying aborted foetuses for research
purposes, toppling over the side of a mountain and a passing Eric Cartman
taking possession of its cargo, with a view to selling it for a lot of
money. Finally, Butters' Very Own Episode sees Butters follow his father
to a porn theatre, to see Fisting Firemen 9, and his mother attempting
to drown him.
...
The other trio of hilarious episodes included here are Towelie, Osama
Bin Laden Has Farty Pants and How To Eat With Your Butt.
I just want to know who this "Mr. Hand" is!! :P~

Comedy Central has released teaser images for Episode 608 & 609!
Episode 608 - "Red Hot Catholic Love"
When the Catholic Church scandal negatively impacts church attendance in South Park, Priest Maxi travels to Rome to confront religious leaders about a solution. After intensive counseling about the issue, the boys try to understand why anyone would want to put something up their butts.
Episode 609 - "Free Hat"
Stan, Kyle, Cartman and Tweek take on a cause close to their hearts when they realize that their favorite films are being enhanced, re-released and ruined in the process. Disappointed by the latest versions of such
classics as "Star Wars" and "E.T.," their newly-formed club aims to stop
certain famous directors from wrecking any more of their original masterpieces.
