Best South Park Character?

After watching last weeks episode, I have a new respect for Butters. I realize that what is unique about South Park is that most of the characters are versions of EVERYONE. I mean this in that, everybody can identify with at least one of the characters. Everyone knew a butters, a cartman, a stan or a kyle. Everyone had that whack teacher, etc.

While Butters is definitely up there, I believe the Catatafish should be in the top five, along with Towelie.

Butters is my favorite

Sorry, but there's really no right answer other than Cartman. I love Butters. Butters is fucking priceless.

But think of all the times Butters has made you laugh compared to Cartman. Think of how versatile Butters, or anyone, is compared to Cartman.

This should just be entitled, "Whose's your second favorite South Park character?"

To that I'd probably say Butters, though I do find Stan's Dad (Randy Marsh) to be pretty fucking funny the few times they give him the spotlight.

I agree, Cartman >>> all combined
Not to say they're not funny, but Cartman is the reason the show is my favourite cartoon ever. Cartman > you

I think the adults are better than the kids in the new series, Butters parents in the paris hilton ep were hilarious, and Stans dad has his moments too.

In terms of the supporting cast, I have a soft spot for Wendy. I like her as the intellectual foil to the show. I was definitely pleased to see her take a starring role last week after she'd largely been gone for a good season.

But uh, Cartman and Butters are both great. It's tough to really pick one favorite as at its best the show is a great ensemble.

I used to think that all of the characters were equally great.

That is UNTIL the Scott Tenorman episode. That episode marked the point where Cartman became the single greatest television character ever. Period. "The tears of the defeated, taste so sweet!"

I cried laughing for five straight minutes after that episode.

Honestly, impossible to say. Show has more characters with depth and versatility than any "real" show on TV right now.
sans Arrested Development.

Cartman is the best, followed by Butters.

Cartman is seriously awesome... there's no denying it. One of the funniest episodes I've ever seen was the rainforest one, where he's preaching about tough love to the sloth, snake, etc. Then in the middle of the storm Kyle was like, "Holy shit, I just saw Tony Danza"... lightning flashes and you see Tony Danza sitting in the middle of the group, hahaha. Damn that's some funny stuff.
 
No love for Kenny, Chef or Mr. Hanky?

Really though, it's between Cartman and Butters. And Cartman gets number 1 in my book.

I can easily tell you my least favorite though, the damn Mayor.

Jimmy. The steroid episode is by far the funniest character scene moment. I just love the whole platoon scene and the "DUMB,B-B-BITCHES!"

That throwing stick stunt of yours has boomeranged on us.
