Token and Tyler Perry were the best part of the episode. i wish the other comedians were actually similar to who they portrayed. Adam Sandler, Jay Leno, and all the others with no speaking parts could've just been any random person and say the same lines. I always expect better parodies out of South Park, and that was just lazy. i hated the 1st episode and the 2nd was decent. my expectations are pretty low now so i'll probably enjoy the 3rd no matter how mediocre it may turn out. | ||

same here. and im german. Weird, I understood what he was saying well enough (though I didn't find it funny). Maybe it only made sense if you only kind of speak German and you're just trying to guess based on picking up words that you recognize. | ||

I understood it as well, but it might have been completely gibberish for germans, but some of the nouns made sense and such. | ||

It's been weak so far, yes, but both episodes had their moments - few, but they're there. There have been worse episodes than those two, both in terms of being gross (HumanCentIPad) and rather bland/boring (Funnybot). I'm curious to see what the next few episodes will bring. | ||

Now when I watch, I can't help but feel "they had 5 months, and this is the best they could come up with?" | ||

Now when I watch, I can't help but feel "they had 5 months, and this is the best they could come up with?" Not that this is too much of an excuse, since they could've been brainstorming over that time, but South Park episodes are actually made insanely quickly compared to almost any other show. ...with a staff of about 70 people, episodes are typically completed in one week, with some in as little as three to four days. ...Scripts are not written before a season begins. Production of an episode begins on a Thursday, with the show's writing consultants brainstorming with Parker and Stone. ...After exchanging ideas, Parker will write a script, and from there the entire team of animators, editors, technicians, and sound engineers will each typically work 100–120 hours in the ensuing week. ...On Wednesday, a completed episode is sent to Comedy Central's headquarters via satellite uplink, sometimes in just a few hours before its air time of 10 PM Eastern Time. Parker and Stone state that subjecting themselves to a one-week deadline creates more spontaneity amongst themselves in the creative process, which they feel results in a funnier show. The schedule also allows South Park to both stay more topical and respond more quickly to specific current events than other satiric animated shows.
