They did a good job of making Mel Gibson look like a power mad nut case.
Eh. The Mel Gibson parody was too off-the-wall; there wasn’t anything like the real Mel Gibson in there for real viciousness or satire. But their Paris Hilton was right on the money - down to the pineapple, I’d wager.
Does anyone remember the “sticking food up your butt and pooping out your mouth” episode, where Martha Stewart made a whole turkey… um… disappear? Even more impressive than Paris’ feat with the pineapple, considering the… um… orifice.
Something just hit me - isn’t this the first time in all 120+ episodes that we’ve seen Mr and Mrs Testaburger?
I think so. Wendy never hade parents visible before this, that I’m aware of.
I think the episode sent the wrong message. I mean, we’re trying to get more girls to be sluts, dammit! 
I laughed so hard I thought I was going to choke.
That little dog killing himself was hysterical.
I cannot believe Butters poked Paris in the coochie. Talk about a jaw-dropper. “—skish skish—”
Of course, the irony of a show attacking Paris Hilton for being famous for no reason is that it spends a whole half hour talking about somebody who doesn’t deserve to be famous, thus continuing to cement her social profile. Hmmm…
I think it’s the “moral highground” episodes that I tend to not like. It started with “Gays in Scouts” (or was that episode called “Cripple Fight”?) and it was great. The problem is, I think, that they won some sort of award for that episode (was it an Emmy?) and they either decided they wanted more awards or someone above them pressured them but they started pumping out moral issue episode after moral issue episode. For awhile there, I think around the 6th season, I almost quit watching because it seemed like every episode was preachy and full of moral finger-pointing.
One thing I’ve noticed about Trey and Matt is that, while they don’t kowtow to specific people or establishments, they seem to love awards. I’m personally convinced that they wrote “I’m so Ronery” (from Team America) with an Oscar on their minds.
Looked to me like Butters wasn’t so much lifting her skirt as poking his finger on her, um, squishy thing.
This would have been the best part except fcking Comedy fcking Central’s fcking announcer fcking talked all over it!!! Reminded me of how they used to do this over MST3K’s bonus endings.
And even though to anyone who cares, its obvious what Paris Hilton is, I thought that South Park was the perfect venue with which to come out and say it. Because its a cartoon they could use the necessary ‘NC-17’ elements to mock her perfectly.
I mean, Mr. Slave was the most depraved, amoral character on the show. And yet they wanted to portray Paris as being 100 times more stupid, worthless and whore-like. And they totally pulled it off!
I agree with you all!
Over-all weak, but damn funny in spots. Any episode, like food, is better with more Butters!
Was expecting a little more from Wendy’s parents. Thought Paris had nothin’ on Martha Stewart. Was happy to see the Frog King again. Thought Mr. Slave had too much screen-time, but he had to, I guess.
My advice to Matt and Trey (like they really care): More Chef and less “guest stars”.
I’m going out to the shop to play drums and drink beer now…
What are you talking about? They’ve done issue episodes since the beginnings.
Not really. They never said or implied anything about Michael Jackson being a child molester. They laid in to him for being a grown man over obsessed with his childhood, but only really because he’s now a father and should be more responsible. And his appearance… but that’s fish-in-the-barrel.
That’s ignorance. Ignorance.
Apart from kidnapping kids and sleeping with them, you mean?
Go back and watch the earlier stuff again. They did “issues”* but you’ll notice a huge difference in the way they approached them and preached at the audience starting with the Gays in Scouts episodes. Trust me, it’s there.
[sub]Underpants Gnomes and Sexual Harassment Panda were both before Gays in Scouts, I think, but that’s all I can think of at the moment, unless you’re going to be petty and count stuff like dodgeball[/sub]
I’d love to know if Paris Hilton saw the episode. 
He never kidnapped anyone in the episode, and he’s admitted to sleeping with kids in a non-sexual way. All I’m saying is that they never attacked him for things that haven’t been proven yet. Hell, the end of the episode has him promising to be a better father and leading everyone in a singalong!
I hear she tried to watch it, but got distracted when her pet dog killed itself.
