I've got a question for all of you REALLY big SOUTH PARK fans: Is this an acquired taste or if you don't get it that first time, you'll never get it? I think I may be the latter because I've watched the show twice and both times it didn't do a thing for me. I just don't think that the show is as clever as Stone and Parker or maybe even the fans seem to think that it is. I saw the part about Janet Reno dressing like the Easter Bunny to get some immigrant children out of a house which aired shortly after the Elian Gonzalez raid . . . tain't funny! I've got nothing against foul language, but that in and of itself isn't funny nor is the fact that it's coming out of the mouths of babes, so to speak.
I WILL say that I like the animation style of the show. It reminds me of those home movies that kids used to send into the TV show "Zoom" back in the Seventies. It makes it look as if the show actually were produced by children . . . that is, until they open their mouths. When it comes to adult-themed animated shows, I'll stick with the king: "The Simpsons". Sometimes, there is something to be said for subtlety.
