South Park -- "Major Boobage" -- 3/26/2008
 
Synopsis:
Spoiler:
In a South Park homage to the 1981 film, "Heavy Metal", the boys are trying to get Kenny off the latest drug craze that's captured the junior high and under set.


Should be interesting...

This sounds great.

Meh. Sounds like too much Kenny and Heavy Metal was lame. Doesnt sound too promising. Then again the first two did sound promising and werent that great so hopefully this one suprises me.

I kinda wanna go back to when we didn't know what the hell the episode was about until the moment it aired. That way expectations are not over-inflated.
I guess I can solve this by just not reading the plot synopsis bt I am too weak that way sometimes in these matters.

Charlie Goose 03-26-08 03:13 PM

Doesn't sound promising to me, but I'm still there.

Brent L 03-26-08 09:08 PM

I don't care what any of you say, but so far I think this is awesome.

When the picture of the cat turned negative, and roared, i laughed pretty hard. Good episode. Now I feel like watching Heavy Metal :) Good to see a current events episode again

chris_sc77 03-26-08 09:31 PM

Very good episode tonight. I was disappointed with the past 2 episodes but this one won me back.

Jimmy James 03-26-08 09:32 PM

Wow, that was topical.

Next week can only be an episode themed around the eugenics movement of the 1920s crossed with the Long Hot Summer of 1967. :rolleyes:

As with the second episode, the execution was fine. There was a chuckle or two. The lack of topical material combined with not being as funny as in the past makes these episodes almost a chore to watch if you ask me.

Actually it was a Eliot Spitzer parody but thanks for playing.

Ehh, a few laughs. Would have been better if I had actually been cheesing. Unlike the last two, I think this ep might get better will multiple viewings.

brainee 03-26-08 10:23 PM

Excuse me ... I have to borrow the neighbor's cat to try something out.

MrX 03-26-08 10:25 PM

Cartman going up in his attic and finding Kenny up there with the cat's pissing on him had merotfl

redrum 03-26-08 10:35 PM

kenny ridin that bird with the tits sittin on his head was hilarious.

Charlie Goose 03-26-08 10:59 PM

Awful. Not a single chuckle. And basing an episode on references to an obscure movie that I'd wager no more than 10% of the audience has even heard of, and maybe a third of that group has seen? Toothless.

If that's what they were going for, it was extremely weak sauce.

I recognized the apology scene, obviously, but I'm pretty conversant in that story and they hit on little else related to it.

"I see you're enticed by my daughter's awesome rocking tits!" :lol:

I really have to watch Heavy Metal now. Luckily Netflix has it for instant viewing.

Goat3001 03-26-08 11:39 PM

Thought it was an ok episode. Had a few good moments:

1) Cartman telling the cat to keep a diary.

2) Cartman finding Kenny cheesing in the attic.

3) Cartman telling Kyle that he would never understand what the cats have to go through.

4) Just the term "cheesing" had me laughing.

5) Gerald cheesing and fighting Kenny in the sand pit with only his underwear on.

nodeerforamonth 03-27-08 01:12 AM

Maybe I'm not "hip", but is there such a thing called "cheesing"? And does it involve snorting cat piss?

I just didn't get this episode. Unlike some, I'm not going to call it the "worst episode ever", and this season isn't really up to par (so far), but then again, they set the bar so high the past few seasons there's really no way they could live up to it.

I don't think you had to know that stuff was a reference to Heavy Metal to find it funny.

gmanca 03-27-08 02:36 AM

Just awesome! Total change from the past two but throwing in the Spitzer thing didn't really gel.

Loved that they used the Felder song in more than just one scene.

It's fon-to-due don't ya know.

Chew 03-27-08 06:54 AM

Maybe not the homerun I was hoping for, but it was certainly an improvement over the last two.

I was really hoping to see Cartman in the Metal environment.

Cartman as a near-Oskar Schindler character is classic, especially the part with Kyle at the end recalling the parallel to history. :lol:

lotsofdvds 03-27-08 06:58 AM

"FON to DUE" :lol:

I just about sprayed my computer with my soda when they said that.
