I keep thinking this show can’t push the boundaries of bad taste any more. Tonight, I will officially stop thinking this. Paris Hilton cones to South Park to open a store, “Stupid Spoiled Whore”, that caters to young girls who want to be just like her, a stupid spoiled whore. Where to begin? Paris’ coughing fits (that ain’t phlegm!) The Whore Off? (Mr. Slave wins, uh, sort of…) You have to see it to believe it! ---

The ending had me howling with laughter. And I loved what the episode was about. I’m still wondering how the hell Paris Hilton became so damned famous. Really now, just what _does she do_? ---

I tend to think a lot of the South Parks that attempt to address current events and actual topics fall short of the ones that are on random unique ideas… but this one was hilarious. Especially the ending. -K. ---

I’m not trying to be a jerk, but I actually thought tonight’s was the weakest episode in a long time, especially after the ninja episode and the “turd sandwich vs. giant douche” election in the earlier part of the season. Don’t get me wrong, I’d rather watch a “weak” South Park than a “good” new Simpsons episode, but it just didn’t seem to fire on all cylinders tonight. ---

Oh man… what a great episode!! I haven’t laughed that hard in a while. The entire episode was brilliant. “The Stupid Whore Store” was great. Butters as the bear and the parents selling him off for $250 million also amused me. But the BEST part was the Frog Prince guiding Paris Hilton through Mr. Slave, with the ‘song’ (you know the one). Will Paris one day make it to the end? ---

The Frog Prince bit bothered me. Didn’t Limmiwinks set him free? Yeah, it was essential to make what was a wonderful joke, but I can’t help but feel they could have done it differently without screwing the backstory. Oh well, cracking eggs and omellets and all that. ---

Yeah, no tampering with the legend of Lemmiwinks! A little surprised at Wendy–isn’t she usually popular and eager to get in on trends, intelligent (and treacherous) though she may be? I love Mr. Slave. Not in that way. OK, maybe in that way, but he wouldn’t want me. There’s several Stupid Spoiled Whore stores in Soho and environs, although they’re not exactly called that. Anybody else expect Paris to show up in night-vision green during the night scenes? And what was with the lazy eyelid. Guh-rossss! More than the pineapple. It made me wince but I guess I’m not a big enough slut. Poor poor Tinkerbell! I betcha they get more letters about that than anything else. Not enough of the boys except Cartman but a good one otherwise. ---

Just had to chime in: While I still love South Park, methinks Drawn Together is the new hotness. Insansely funny stuff. ---

They (South Park, not Drawn Together, which got tired before the end of the first episode) have certainly showed that they still don’t pull their punches. But the end, while amusing, spells doom on the horizon. Whenever a show becomes self-referential that way, it’s as though they were saying “Hey! Remember this from a couple of seasons ago? Remember how funny we were back then?” It is always evidence to me that the overall quality is about to take a nosedive. ---

Eh, I’m with Big Bad Voodoo Lou on this one. One of the weaker episodes, but maybe it’s only because they’ve been so great lately. I agree that there wasn’t enough of the boys. I liked lots of Mr. Slave though, he’s one of my favorite secondary characters. As soon as Paris stuffed the pineapple, I knew what Mr. Slave was going to do. ---

It wasn’t my favorite by any means, but I was surprised by the fact it more or less kept going till the end, when I thougth they weren’t going to be able to make it work for 1/2 an hour straight. I guess the fact is, they did nothing to Paris Hilton in this episode that she doesn’t deserve. Particulary someone who’s only famous for being a slut. Poor Butters. I’d really call Child services, as his parents are beyond cruel. I was actually expecting the dog to shoot her, not itself, but then the episode would be much shorter. ---

When Paris and Butters were sitting on his bed, she passed out and he reached over and lifted up her skirt to look in, I thought I was going to break something I was laughing so hard. Can anyone remember what Butters said at that moment? It was riotous but I can’t recall it exactly. Admittedly, when Mr. Slave _won_ the whore off my jaw was on the floor. Even for South Park that was a big “Woah!” ---

As soon as I heard the name “Paris Hilton” in the episode, I knew this one was going to be rough…but I had no idea it would be THAT vicious! (I’m trying to think of a more brutal celebrity attack SP episode, and honestly I can’t). My roommate and I were absolutely rolling, especially because if there’s a “celebrity” that deserves the treatment, it’s Paris! ---

Gotta say that this episode, while humorous, wasn’t a laugh-out-loud one for me. However, South Park is still the only show that makes me literally gasp and jaw-drop in amazement, though I knew, as soon as the whore-off started, that Paris Hilton was going right where she did… George ---

(I’m trying to think of a more brutal celebrity attack SP episode, and honestly I can’t). Really? I thought “The Jeffersons” was far nastier in comparison - at least we know for sure that Paris Hilton is guilty as charged, what with her having said that “that [sex] tape made me”.
