There are few modern animated television shows that could survive over
a decade and a half and remain as funny... or as stupid... or as
sick... or as depraved... today as when they started. Even fewer can
claim to cater to “mature” audiences, while their critics complain
that everything about the show is immature. And fewer still where, for
the first decade or so, one of the main characters was killed off
every week. Then returned, no worse for wear, seven days later. That,
however, is the world of South Park, and this is a book about that
world. A journey through the lives, times, and catastrophes that have
established the tiny mountain town of South Park, Colorado, as
America's favorite dysfunctional community. A voyage into a universe
where Barbra Streisand is reborn as a Japanese monster movie; where
Kentucky Fried Chicken is a registered drug; where Canada is forever
on a footing for war; and where we discover that even feces love
Christmas. From Zebulon Pike to Chef, from Brian Boitano to Mel
Gibson, from “Super Best Friends” to South Park: Bigger, Longer &
Uncut, it's all covered in South Park FAQ. Featuring A-Z coverage of
the all the characters readers have come to know and the stories
behind the episodes, it also includes an episode guide and an appendix
of all of the songs featured in South Park. Nothing is sacred and
nobody is safe. Even physical and emotional disabilities are just
another banana skin for someone to slip on, and the term
“politically correct” has been translated into “oh good, you're
getting annoyed.” It is a place where ... you get the picture. This
is not Bambi!
