From Comedy Central
SOUTH PARK NEW EPISODES
It's the last of the new episodes of South Park and
this week, Cartman is doing his best to help Jesus and
Santa bring Christmas to the people of Iraq!
and

Cartman realizes the true meaning of the season (that
he has to be good or else he won't get any presents)
so he teams up with Santa and Jesus to bring Christmas
to Iraq!
Well THAT strand of new episodes seemed to FLY by.

I hope there is a Mr. Hankey cameo!

I hope there isn't. You can only take jokes about a piece of poo so far, and I think they've covered those jokes multiple times.

They showed half of this season last summer. Then took a few months off, showing the rest of the season now.

That just might have been the funniest SP episode ever.

And Mr. Hankeys Christmas Classics is next. This is awsome.

Eh, a few good moments... Santa's story about how from now on, we should remember Jesus at Christmas b/c he died to save him was great!

BUT, the whole Jimmy song bit was good the first segment or two, but damn it got old fast. And two minutes of Mr. Hanky is two minutes too many.

Not one of the better episodes imho. Last week's was one of the best of the season though, and the early Seamen episode this season may be the best one ever.

actually...i didn't think that it was that funny. actually the 12 days got old really quick. I thought it was kinda cool though how they brought Christmas back to Jesus.

i thought it was decent. I have heard talk about this being the last season. Could that be why they brought Kenny back?

I thought that had to be about the funniest SP episode yet! Yes, the 12 Days of Christmas by Jimmy got old really quick, but the Poo-Choo was funny. The fact that the only reason that Cartman was being good was so that he could get a toy, and the only reason that he wanted that toy was to kill it was pretty funny as well. I thought for sure Jesus was gonna call on his super pals to help rescue Santa, but opening a cabinet full of guns... in a church, was friggin' hilarious.

Oh no... Not Santa's Balls... I'm gonna f@cking kill you!

I think Mr. Hankey should have opened up with a ***** storm on Iraq, but its been done before I suppose.

Did Kenny say "I've just been hanging around" after they asked him where he had been? That's what it sounded like.

"Then we're in for a long night, because I don't know SH*T!"

The return of the Underpants Gnomes!

Very funny episode, I laughed out loud every time Santa screamed during his torture. I may be sick, but I take comfort in the fact that someone sicker than me wrote about shocking Santa's balls and shooting Jesus in the back.

Still, the greatest SP Christmas episode was the one that followed, Mr Hanky's Christmas musical.

Honk!

Don't worry about South Park ending anytime soon. I hear Matt and Trey are working on a movie next year, but are going to be producing the show as well. New episodes are expected in late January/Early February 2003. South Park has been picked up for at least another year.

I work for Comedy Central, so I got this information from my higher ups.

And I think that the Lemmiwinks episode was the best in this run of new eps.

Weak, weak episode. The Jimmy stuff was SO unfunny..

The Sea People episode was indeed my favorite of this season. So wrong.. and it had Professor Chaos in it.

The Three Kings homage had me rolling! Yet another holiday classic from Matt & Trey.

I guess I suck, because I thought the "12 Days of Christmas" was hilarious.

I felt kind of guilty laughing at this episode. Jesus packing was so wrong it was funny.

And the children looking like the ones from Santa Claus is Coming to Town, ... pure genius!!

My favorite parts were the "Poo-Choo Train" song, the Rankin/Bass style children (including Stan, Cartman and Kyle at the end) and the return of the underpants gnomes. I also got a chuckle when the four went to Jesus for help: "Kyle, Stan, Eric, Mr. Hankey - what's up?"

For those that dislike Mr. Hankey - I have to admit that he really had hardly anything to do in this episode so be thankful (at least they gave up on showing poop splats everywhere he bounced after the 1st episode or so).

I am actually happy they brought Kenny back... I was kinda glad they finally finished him off many episodes ago but [Stan voice]I learned something today[/Stan voice] - how much I enjoyed his totally filthy sense of humor. Welcome back you sick little monkey!

It was okay. I loved the rip-off of the electric shock torture scene from Lethal Weapon though.
