[Xanatos]

As a YouTuber, this was the best episode ever! I loved it! Chocolate Rain Guy was awesome!

[db0]

A laughed out loud when I saw all the internet stars!

Perfect!

I think this episode was pretty much related to this new website more than anything else.

[Loserbait]

But, do NOT f*cking promise me T&P and give me this!

Heeeeey, relax, guy! You shouldn't be so forceful because you're upset. Or else, I'll [what what?] in your butt!

I just caught the tail end of the episode after a friend IMd me...but she tells me they got my voice and accent all wrong. I'm from Texas and sound like it, but apparently they made me sound like I'm from Minnesota (where I currently live).

Hey Mr. Tron Guy! Glad to see a celebrity (Internet or otherwise) on the forums who didn't mind the stab at them. Anyways, you need to understand how parody works. Plus, the time frames and the limited vocal capacity of the voice acting team -- hey, they're good but they can't perfect the Australian accent. At. All. On top of that, you're not really a YouTube sensation... you're a Slashdot/Fark guy, so you probably shouldn't have been in the episode anyways.

Nice set of links! There were a few of those internet vids I hadn't seen.

And I'm not super pissed, I was just hoping for more T&P in this episode. I really, really, achingly want more T&P.

oops made a error in my previous post i said the gerbal looked funny it was a gopher, seeing these clips has made this episode the best of the season so far.... i knew about chris c and chocolate rain kid but the rest of them i have only just seen that Numa Numa video had tears rolling down my eyes why do they do it.

[Petterderhaag]

Is it just me or do the online episodes fail to show? Maybe because I live in Europe? Desperate SP fans out here as well!

[Kensuke]

I thought the episode sucked. The only funny part is when Butters sat down and the chocolate rain guy sang "Chocolate Rain to him and butters made a litttle scream. And why was Kenny on the commercial but not on the episode? I give it a 2/10! dun dun dun!

[FredtheFrog]

it started strong but finished very weak. ultimately it felt a little soulless to not frontally address the writer issue - and/or bring in the DGA and their influence in the outcome.

Of course there were a bunch of good laughs, and I loved to see the internet references (watching it online complete with stream farts and cyber commercials) and learned some I didn't know.

Thanks to Loserbait for the links, I never heard of chocolate rain before - tee hee.

One last thing, its true you cant account for taste - I never get tired of hearing that numa nonsense but the buddy-friend-guy thing lacked some imagination - what ever happened to a dude or mate or chap… ??

M&T you know we love you no matter what - and I still gush over the HIV one and heavy metal one (man that takes me back).

[ShaneHaughey]

8/10.

The plot was stronger than I thought it was going to be, and didn't delve into global economics like I assumed it would have. There were many laughs, but general nothing just fantastically awesome. A good, solid episode.

[outbackalien]

All i can say is ... WOW !

All stops out with this one.

[jmaynard]

Hey Mr. Tron Guy! Glad to see a celebrity (Internet or otherwise) on the forums who didn't mind the stab at them.

People have been taking shots at me for years. I'm used to it by now. Besides, I look at it like Jack Benny did. His attitude was that people wouldn't remember the next day that they'd laughed at Jack Benny; they'd remember they laughed at the Jack Benny Show, and tune in next week - and he came out a winner that way.

Anyways, you need to understand how parody works. Plus, the time frames and the limited vocal capacity of the voice acting team -- hey, they're good but they can't perfect the Australian accent. At. All. On top of that, you're not really a YouTube sensation...you're a Slashdot/Fark guy, so you probably shouldn't have been in the episode anyways.

Well, at least some of my TV appearances have made it to YouTube, but I see your point. I guess they just couldn't resist a fat guy in spandex.

I do have to ask: do they ever bring in folks to do voices? If not, then there's no particular reason I should be an exception.

[KennyKicksAss]

This episode was awesome! The internet celeb parodies were the funniest part! I couldn't stop laughing when Butters started singing "What What In The Butt".
@jmaynard: Man, it must be awesome to say that you've been parodied on South Park. I wish I was famous so they'd parody me. And when I am famous, I'll make it my life goal to be on South Park.

[braveerudite]

The part where all the Internet sensation go at it was brilliant. Chocolate Rain guy and "Leave Britney Alone" where the funniest. Great job Trey and Matt.
