Not Cartman's best episode. Few, infrequent laughs. And the targets (hippies, The Core, The Polyphonic Spree) were not quite fresh.

I thought it was hilarious. I have some hippie-ish friends into jam bands like Widespread Panic, so this one hit pretty close to home (and definitely enhanced the humor in the episode for me).

There have only been 1 or 2 episodes EVER when I didn't laugh at all - this was one of them. Seemed like old rehash of other episodes and Cartman seemed way out of character. But I haven't sen many new eps from the past season, so maybe I'm missing something.

I'm not sure if last season has anything to do with it, but this is perfectly in keeping with Cartman's character. The kid hates those gatdam hippies and would do anything to stop their infestation.

But...this is the first time he was the hero of the piece.

I don't think Cartman has ever been more in character than this episode. Well except maybe for when he was licking Scott Tenorman's tears and when he tried to have the Jews exterminated.

Well, that's debatable. Regardless, Cartman's goal was not to be heroic, but to eradicate South Park of its hippie infestation. His motives were completely selfish as usual as witnessed in the beautiful closing scene.

I wasn't referring to his hate of hippies...which I was aware of. I meant just his overall temperment and tone. He wasn't his bitchy, whiny self, so I didn't feel like I was watching Cartman.
