I watched until the back of the disc was too scratched for wear. I still am surprised she gave me one of my favorite Christmas presents ever: The South Park movie on DVD. I would have to sneak watching it when she was asleep as reruns were all the rage back when cable television didn’t have a DVR. Originally using paper cutouts in their animation, South Park now presents itself as one of the fastest cartoons to animate – they make their episodes within a week and typically revolve their storylines around hot topics including politics, moronic actions of humans, and any current or past pop culture phenomenon.īack in the ‘90s when I was a wee gay boy, my mom refused to allow me to watch South Park. Trey Parker and Matt Stone’s smashing creation about four eight-year-old boys (turning themselves into two of the main characters, Stan Marsh and Kyle Broflovski) has premiered a record breaking three-hundred episodes over the series run since 1997. I constantly bounce back and forth between favorites like Bob’s Burgers, American Dad!, and my absolute favorite animated series, South Park. Color me immature, but every night I have to fall asleep watching cartoons.
