I still find South Park entertaining even though it's been around for so long. I can always count on it for a good laugh. I think it's doing much better than Family Guy or The Simpsons, in terms of funniness and longevity. Whether it may be their political satire, Cartman being, well, Cartman, or Butters taking evil revenge as Professor Chaos, South Park can still deliver.
Oh, and Cartman randomly singing quietly to himself totally makes my day.
This week's episode was more of the same - some crazy storyline, drawn waaay out of proportion.
This episode is the third segment of The Coon Series. After another BP oil spill, Captain Hindsight has a nervous breakdown, and the evil monster Cthulhu is released from the depths of the sea. The Coon, Cartman, "leaves" his superhero group, Coon and Friends, and takes his services to the dark side to destroy every synagogue, hippie, and Justin Bieber fan.
Mysterion, revealed last week's episode as Kenny (!), enlists the help of the goths to destroy Cthulhu.
Mysterion believes he is the only member of Coon and Friends with real powers - he can't actually die (Helllooo Kenny), and no-one can remember he died (What is this? Groundhog Day?).
Who takes down Cthulhu? Why, none other than Mintberry Crunch (Bradley)!
Using "the power of mint and berry, set with a satisfying tasty crunch", he returns Cthulhu to the deep oblivion.
Mintberry Crunch was the true super hero all along (Take that, Captain Hindsight!).
Episode Rating:
5 (Average TV) - Entertaining, but could have been funnier ...
Episode's Best Line:
"In order to get past her, I must use the Lebron James technique" - Cartman (Who continues to ask "What should I do?", while trying to slip past his mom)
Honorable mention:
"He promised everything would change if we worshiped him, but we're still here, smoking cigarettes like before. It's like Obama all over again." - the goths (In reference to Cthulhu)
