We might need South Park more than ever.

  Yes, it's true.


 South Park, once cut out pieces of paper of nothing but four boys in Colorado named Stan, Kyle, Cartman and Kenny. Created by two geniuses named Trey Parker and Matt Stone trying to get crude humor to Comedy Central in 1997 was nothing but cruel to anyone.

  But today, it's somewhat different.

   Stan and Kyle are childhood friends that are based on Trey and Matt and Cartman was based on Art Carney from all in the family. He's loud, crude and raciest but they seem to have made Cartman more as if he was the true enemy of every episode.

Sometimes he is the enemy in the episode. Wanting to start fights or war, or even killing people (like hippies) trying to get his way every episode.


   Even if it means hurting the ones he loves.

Kenny use to be killed off almost every episode because the voice actor, Matt Stone, hated voicing him. They also killed him completely for a whole season saying that Kenny died of an illness, but they brought him back.

Eventually, in an episode called "Coon and Friends" one of my favorite episodes, it is revealed why Kenny never dies.
  He is immortal because of a cult his parents went to while his mother was pregnant with him at the time and well...
let's just say we finally find out why he dies in almost every episode.
  Now in the future episodes, it doesn't seem as if he is being killed much.

   Now I feel that the show has matured and the morals they give at the end of each episode have a meaning. Mostly told by Stan or Kyle. They explain at the end what the episode told them and the whole town hears and knows that they too have learned an important lesson as well.

    I fell as if after the movie they did, which had the most swear words as Reservoir Dogs, South Park had some growing up to do, and apologize to Canada for pissing them off. But the movie was pretty good.

   I feel that we need South Park now more than ever because of the morals it teaches us and because of the story it gives us, stupid as it can be at times, it seems they usually talk about what goes on in the media today as well as what is going on in the world with politics or making fun of a celebrity.

   South Park does it. They even made fun of the Simpsons, and sometimes they can go too far, but we do need them, like we do any great show... for the morals and the story.

  Like the Simpsons, South Park is another show that will never die, but maybe this show is worth keeping for a while.

    We need South Park because the stories are what get us going through today. We need the laughter South Park brings us. Thanks Matt, Thanks Trey.
