So, I saw last week’s new South Park last night…and for the second time in the row Kenny is MIA. It’s worth noting the boys referred to him as if he were dead two episodes ago.

Does anyone know what the grand plan is? Is Kenny gone, forever?

Check out [The Official Site](http://www.southparkstudios.com/) and read the FAQ.

I’m guessing he’ll come back before the show ends.

I don’t know, but I like Butters much better. I think the “Kenny getting killed every episode” joke was getting pretty stale.

I don’t know why, but Butters is my favorate character.

Butters: Eh. He’s funny, but not all that funny.

Kenny: OK. He’s foul-mouthed and has an attitude, but more civil than Cartman. On top of that, he knows all the adult things that the other ids are getting wrong. And I like trying to figure out what he’s saying.

::looks skyward piteously::

DEAR GOD, why can’t we have them both! Can’t you see you’re TEARING ME APART?

:: falls to knees, blubbering mindlessly::

Man I would be in double dutch without butters.

Kenny was fun, but they were wise to give him a break.

The bigger question-- where’s Timmy or “Timahhhhhhhh!”
