I was a little disappointed with this episode as well. There weren't many parts I found myself laughing. I did like the movie references though.

Urgh, a disappointing show following-up the hilarious season premiere.
I felt the opposite. I liked last night better and thought the premiere was very unfunny.

I kept thinking, enjoy this episode now because there is no way Wal-mart will let it air again without a protracted legal battle.

How do you figure? Parody has been litigated and found to be fair game under the umbrella of free speech.

We'll see how THAT stands up during the next four years.

Bush-bashing in a South Park thread?

This episode was not funny, and not very clever. Except for the crapping-while-dying part.

Didn't quite do as much for me as the Turd Sandwich, but still quite a few funny bits.

Two episodes, two major recurrent poo references. South Park is back!

Could someone please tell me when this will be replayed.

Is it Saturday at 11pm?

Going to the Comedy Central site is like looking at Homer Simpson's web page ... there us just tons of crap all over the place that do nothing useful except take up space.

Not a single laugh-out-loud moment in this for me. A good satire, but just nothing very funny.
I agree. I didn't think the episode was very funny. It was a nice satire, but the guys have done a lot better with less material to spoof. I mean Wal-Mart is huge and they really could have done better in my opinion.

LOL. This is so true. Comedy Central's site is a wed designers nightmare. Just covered with all kinds of stuff all over the place.

Exactly how I felt. Shitty episode.

Oh c'mon. Cartman whipping out his violin was comedy gold.

And I laughed pretty hard at the Wal-Mart president's explosive death crap...it blew his pants off

Messed up, but true.

Wonder what the Walton family will do to retaliate?

The closest Wal Mart to me is either 35 miles south, or 50 miles north.

My dad's in a union, so if he shops at Wal Mart he could get fired. Of course, that doesn't stop him...

That was okay.

The episode with the whole 'eating food through your asshole then shitting it out of your mouth' storyline was much funnier.

If Wal-Mart understands satire, they won't do anything.

While it certainly took some easy shots at Wal-Mart, the show made far more fun of the anti-Wal-Mart hysteria than it did of Wal-Mart itself. Maybe that's why some of you found it disappointing...
