... and I know Kyle will chase after Stan. Looking forward already.

That's what I'm expecting and hoping for. Stan and his family are hilarious, but you gotta love Kyle.

[ShaneHaughey]

Hmm...I feel as though I should be overjoyed and excited, but...I'm not. I mean, I have hopes, but right now they are guarded. The press release is usually more telling.

One of the biggest concerns in the news today is our economy, and how we're in a recession which could very well lead to another Great Depression. In the 1930's Okies moved out west to CA looking for work because they were either out of work or their farms were bare from the dustbowl, which only made the Depression worse.

IMO, it looks like this fear of an upcoming Great Depression is what M&T are making this episode about. Maybe they'll also make this a parody of Carnivale; that was a cool show. BOOO HBO for canning it.

This episode sounds funny cant wait to see it. Even know Randy's episodes kinda suck 75% of the time

[Delilah]

No internet...that's an interesting idea. This could be pretty good! I think Randy episodes usually turn out good, he had a sub plot in Make Love, Not War Craft, right?

This sounds like a really good episode. Of course, every idea for each episode is great, I just hope the episode lives up to the idea. :D It seems like it will be a Grapes of Wrath parody, and I personally think that Randy will be hilarious in this situation, I just hope there's some sort of subplot with Kyle or at least everyone else back in South Park.

[McCormick Fan]

I'm not one for Randy episodes, so i'm not really looking foward to it.

[Nerys]

Sounds great. Randy is my idol
They did an Internet episode two weeks ago, which means this one will use the internet issue to lead to something else...like American recession.
I was also thinking about the title...I've heard that in the United States you're kind of running out of IP addresses?... Could "Over Logging" be a reference to that?

[gtaca2005]

Yes! My state's in it!

[LawrenceTaylor]

I'm hoping for a National Lampoon's "Vacation" feel for a little bit of it, although I'm suspecting a lot of the tension stings and non-specific car "race against time" moments. May that just be a cynical fixation on my part.
And I was just thinking last week how I'd like to see a bit more Shelley. I thought she would be watching Britney Watch in 1202 with them. Hope she gets some lines.

As long as there aren't too many SNN News sequences I'll be happy.

P.S: I wonder, if, what stupid thing on the net Randy will be dying to see that he has to leave the country for it...?

[Sonic Man78]

This episode's description to me sounds like:

O NOEZ, TEH INTERNETZ IS DEAD!!! WHAR WILL I GET MAI LULZ NOW?!?

Seriously, if you think about it, I think it's delving more into our country's economical state rather than the internet being dead.

[LawrenceTaylor]

Upon further vieweing, seeing the guitar picture, you can feel a kind of "Great Depression" air to it, complete with farmer couple on the side. While its not my first guess, I think it'll be a great ep.

[HAcoreRD]

... and I know Kyle will chase after Stan. Looking forward already.

That's what I'm expecting and hoping for. Stan and his family are hilarious, but you gotta love Kyle.

after the fuss Stan went through for Kyle, Kyle better do so for Stan.

Just seen the Comedy Central press release, here it is:

No one in South Park has internet access and there’s no telling when, or even if, it will come back. Desperation sets in as the fear of the unknown spreads rapidly across the country. When Randy hears there still may be some internet out in California, he packs up his family and heads west in search of a signal.

doesn't really give any more details. I can't wait for it.
