*512* Here Comes the Neighborhood

[NeuroHeart]

I once heard a rumor that the ending where Mr. Garrison said "at least we got rid of all those damn ni-" was the result of a beta plan that never came to fruition. Apparently, the beta plan was to use the "ni-" as a lead-out from this episode and lead into the next one, which would start with Mr. Garrison saying "-ggers". Is this rumor true? And if yes, what would the premise of that episode been?

Yes, they did think about starting the next episode with Garrison finishing the sentence. No, it wasn't going to be a setup for the whole episode. Commentary here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cHX_SFmrSYo

Hm... I could've sworn there'd been a sequel of sorts to this episode in the works that got canned. They never made a sequel to Marjorine (another scrapped beta plan).

Would any of you happen to know if there were any episodes or premises planned for Season 5 that just never got made?

"Marjorine" wasn't a scrapped beta plan, either, though perhaps it should have been. Once again, commentary here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z6uoWo3i-60 They say that they should have made two episodes out of the ideas in "Marjorine," and later really wished they had because they tend to run out of ideas at the end of the run.

I seriously doubt it. See above about running out of ideas. It could be there were suggestions that never made it out of the writers room, but odds are we'll never know what those were.
Full-on scrapping of episodes is almost unheard of because they have pretty much no lead time and make most episodes in six days. (I say most because they will at times try to "bank" an episode early in the run so they can take a couple days off, so those episodes have some lead time, but those are sometimes the least popular episodes in a run. "Pip" is a prime example of this, and they don't make a habit of banking shows as much anymore.) According to the commentaries, the one time they actually scrapped a whole idea the result was "Million Little Fibers."

That having racism in a cartoon doesn't make it racist. Yes, Mr. Garrison is a racist assh*le. That's the whole POINT. They portray him in a way that is clearly unreasonably bigoted, in order to both make a point about how wrong it is, and to make delicate issue humorous. It's a commentary on how Matt and Trey see racist people. Same as when they show characters who are homophobic or unbelievably stupid.

In the end, South Park will make fun of everybody and everything for SOMETHING.

Dont know if you noticed, but south park is full of insults. Its not really a show for those easily offended.
