Yes it's that time again. A new season of South Park starts next Wednesday, March 17th. The 14th season will also see South Park's 200th episode and the Return of Tom Cruise and more. Matt and Tray gave some info in a recent interview, and few other tidbits.

Highlights From Interview:

Have you figured out yet what you’re doing for the 200th episode?


PARKER: It’s pretty funny because the only show we have figured out is the 200th, actually. We were looking at what a lot of other shows do when they have a 100th or 200th episode, and we were like, Oh, they do flashback episodes.

STONE: Clip shows.

PARKER: And we’re like, well, we’re not going to be that lazy. We’re not going to do that. But what if we bring back the biggest moments and revisit them – basically, we bring back everyone who’s [ticked off] at us. All the people that are [ticked off] at South Park the town are going to file a class-action lawsuit against the town. So basically it’s going to be an all-star, who’s who. Tom Cruise and everyone’s going to be back.

STONE: It’s everyone on “South Park” who doesn’t want to be on “South Park.”

PARKER: Hey, guess what? You’re back on!

STONE: Really, to fit everyone it would need to be about eight hours. But we’re just going to do standard length and pack it in.

ave you seen “Avatar” since you did your “Dances With Smurfs” episode, and what did you think of it?


STONE: I thought “Dances With Smurfs” was better, actually. Obviously, we hadn’t seen it when we did that. We just had to guess what the movie was about, based on the trailer. But I am surprised how close we got, actually. I thought the movie was going to be a better version of itself.

PARKER: We’re like, “We know that they’re trying to get something off this planet, some resource. We should find out what they call it.” And then someone said, “Oh, they call it Unobtanium.” And we were just like, “Yeah, whatever, shut up. O.K., let’s find out what it’s really called.” We were like, “No way. No. It can’t be that dumb.”

STONE: But it was that dumb.

PARKER: I actually took forever to go see it, but I finally went and saw it like a month ago. After an hour, I was like, I am so done with this movie. Because I know exactly what’s going to happen.

STONE: I have to admit, I had a fun time watching it. But I can’t defend a single thing in it.

How is your relationship with the producers of “Family Guy” these days?


STONE: They completely ignore us, so it’s fine. It’s a one-way war. We don’t know anybody there, they don’t know us. I don’t think they’re much bothered by us.

PARKER: They’re making a lot more money than we are so I don’t think they care very much.

You don’t think there’s any chance they were offended by your “Cartoon Wars” episodes?


PARKER: Well, their show didn’t get any better. They didn’t take it too personally because they didn’t work any harder.

:lol :lol :lol

Do you regret that that episode led to your falling out with Isaac Hayes, a member of your voice cast, right before he died?


STONE: Yeah, because we always had a really good relationship with Isaac. He was a really sweet guy. We were sitting there one day, trying to figure out what to do, and what another episode could be. “We should do a show on Scientology.” “Well, maybe we shouldn’t because of Isaac.” And it was like, you know what, [forget] that, we’ve done everything else. My mom is Jewish, we’ve certainly done our share of making fun of Jews. It just didn’t feel totally honest not to do it because of that.

We thought Isaac would understand or be like, “Oh, I didn’t like that one, but whatever, that’s your prerogative.” And we’ll never know, but it seemed like he was getting pressure from other people around him. The little bit that we knew Isaac, he was a really mellow, cool guy. I don’t think he really cared that much. I don’t think he wanted to be in the middle of it.

This show has sucked fucking ass for a while now. But I must admit there have been a few gems inbetween. Watching the movie makes me sad, it was so awesome.

I would rather see hankie and towlie do bits for full episodes over allot of the shit they have done. gayfish was great of course.

of course i will watch every episode.

I think there is no golden age of South Park. It has always been great to average, with the rare complete dud thrown in. There are a couple of classic episodes each season, and they somehow manage to push the envelope at least once each season beyond what we have seen in the past.

This.

The show used to be consistently good, not always great, but at least good. These days it feels like they're just trying too hard and a lot of the episodes bore me to tears. It's worth it for those one or two good episodes each season, though.

I mean they come off as trying too hard with the stories, production value, etc. Some of my favorite South Park episodes are sorta Seinfeldian in that not much is really happening, but the writing is funny as hell. I just hate it when they get really topical and "relevant".

After the 2nd half of season 13, I'm surprised people think South Park isn't still great. That last block of episodes they showed were almost all great.

Dead Celebrities
Butter's Bottom Bitch
W.T.F.
Whale Whores
The "F" Word
Dances with Smurfs
Pee

Of all those, Pee was the only One I though was pretty bad. The other 6 were all great.

Am I missing something or didn't that interview a few posts up say that Matt and Trey have no idea what most of this season is going to be about?

They've said that they usually try not to do a show until about a week or two before it's due. They've said it's the only way they can come up with ideas or something.

Illness is the doctor to whom we pay most heed; to kindness, to knowledge, we make promise only; pain we obey.
Personally I loved the hell out of Season 13. The Coon, The Ring, Fishsticks, The F Word, Whale Whores, etc. All great episodes. Probably my favorite season so far. I didn't think there was one weak episode this entire season. So, I'm looking forward to the next.

13th season had FISHSTICKS.
And the second half of the season had a couple of great episodes - Butters' Bottom Bitch, Whale Whores, Dances with Smurfs.
Very hyped for it, if it keeps the level of late 13th season it shall be amazing

That's what I thought, so it would seem someone working on the show would have no freakin clue as to how good the season is going to be.

The interview in the OP is the two guys who created the show talking about the 200th episode. Also, the new season starts next week, which means they started working on the first episode three days ago.

So someone working on the show would know the plot of the first episode and what's going on with the 200th episode. I'd say that's plenty of information to know how good the season's going to be so far.
