Funny episode, though the ending was not as unpredictable as I think the writers thought it would turn out. The basic plot's idea was a good one, it could have been stretched out over two episodes.

WOW! Loved it. Best episode in years (and that's saying a lot)

Nice recent Dexter reference too.

I personally really disliked this episode. Not funny at all.

I thought the "Occupy" stuff was dreadfully dull; even the shot at Moore was surprisingly lame.

Cartman's story wasn't bad, but it didn't make up for everything else. Cartman's story felt like the only thing in this episode that wasn't half-assed. It's like they had the idea for this floating around for a while and waited until they had a current events story to go with it.

yeah, the occupy stuff felt like it was added to fill out an otherwise decent Cartman story.

the kill scene with one of the stuffed animals at the end over the fireplace was very similar to a kill on Dexter ten days ago. Dexter's was more spectacular, but both had a victim with a collar that contracted by a tripwire

Pretty dull. I was hoping for much better, given the current events.

I liked the episode. I wonder if the characters are going to be growing up more soon. Stan's recent birthday and "maturing" and now Cartman getting rid of his stuffed toys (RIP Clyde Frog and Peter Panda ) and also "maturing," I think it might be the setup for them to advance the characters.

I wouldn't mind that one bit.

This episode, and the "History Channel" episode didn't have me rolling on the floor like some of the previous episodes in this season - I hope the season finale returns to mirth city.
