Not only that, he was a Ginger, and they don’t even have souls.
So were the Smurfs real, in the South Park universe, and Cartman killed them to frame Wendy, or did he fake the Smurfs? If he faked them, then Cartman has some impressive special effects skills. I’m just asking the question.
I’d think Glenn Beck would be on the side of Weyland-Yutani (or whoever) against the smurfs.
Specifically, Avatar’s plot has the humans discovering a rare, superefficient power source on the blue people’s lands, so they send somebody undercover in preparation for humanity to wipe the blue people out and seize their land/power source, but he “goes native” and joins the blue people.
In other words, exactly like Wendy described in her interview.
I was wondering this, too. Those Smurfs were incredibly lifelike, even more so than the “real” South Park inhabitants.
I’m glad Trey and Matt are finally turning on a conservative; I still can’t believe that they never went for Bush at all during his epic 8-year reign. Not that I really care about the politics this cartoon espouses, so much as their not tapping the incredibly rich comedic vein that is right-wing America.
One could argue that Team America was a criticism of the Bush Foreign Policy, and then there was the short lived show “That’s my Bush” which made the man look like a lovable idiot(oh, wait…).
I’m leaning toward faked since “Wendy” in the video is clearly Cartman in drag.
Just saw it online. The fact that Cartman’s Wendy looks so bad is an indication that the Smurfs were real. I mean, if he was able to make special effects that good, why would his Wendy look so bad?
Best episode so far in an otherwise terrible season. They lost track of the fact that the show has always been about the kids first, not making fun of shows or people nobody cares about.
Yeah well a common conversation I overhear is “so who did they take a jab at in the new South Park?” so the fans are egging them on too. Their best episodes are the ones that are just about the kids being kids. All of the episodes where they find something new to be obsessed with (guitar hero, pokemon, ninja weapons, etc) are by far my favs. I was hoping that this is where this week’s episode would go, but then they had to make it all weird…
I agree. No idea who the Glen Beck oft mentioned in this thread is, what Avatar is, nor the Whale thing from last week… lots of blank looks thereby ensuing.
Suck my fat tits!
So, does that mean that Cartman had the Smurfs himself so that he could film it.
South Park weird goes in two directions; random, pointless, and ultimately unfunny (e.g. Eat, Pray, Queef) vs. through-the-looking-glass brilliant (e.g. Christmas Critters episode). I’d say the Smurf thing was much closer to the latter than the former; the Cartman in Smurfville scenes were really pretty awesome. It also brings back flashes of Scott Tenorman, with regards to the lengths Cartman will go to for revenge. I actually think they may have been real Smurfs now…
I thought they were going to have Wendy mention how the Smurfs were pretty danger socialistic.
And I have to say how much I love Butters.
