TV Guide reports that Kenny will be making a comeback, but they are vague as to how in and what state. Any knowledge or guesses? My guess would have been that he’d just reappear and there’d be no explanation as to why and how, but I think they’ll be more creative than that.

I stopped watching South Park when Kenny went away.

I guess I can start watching it again.

Now if they’d just kill of Cartman every episode - preferrably at the START of each episode. THAT would be a good thing.

I’m guessing John Edwards will be involved. Perfect excuse to make fun of that bozo.

Yes, I’m resurrecting this thread to pat myself on the back for one of my rare predictions that came true.

_pat pat_

And what a superb shallacking they did on the SOB! A brilliant debunking, far better than I even hoped for.

No matter how they bring him back, it’s going to be disgusting. Remember that Cartman ingested Kenny’s ashes and is currently possessed by the spirit of Kenny.

Off topic a bit, I just got the season one box set w/audio commentary (on separate CDs) from Comedy Central. Story has it that Warner Brothers (the distribution company for the show) felt that the running commentary would have to be edited for “standards” issues. Exsqueeze me? This IS South Park after all. Strangerer and strangerer, I tells ya.

Well, if Parker and Stone had done the smart thing and NOT cruciefied and vilified Jodie Foster, then they might have been able to do the audio commentary. But they chose to be their ususal asshat selves, so no audio commentary. But don’t despair, the audio commentary is coming out on CD.  
Oh joy.:rolleyes:

How did they crucify Jodie foster? I’m pretty up on S. P. but I don’t remember this. 😕

Have you ever paid attention to what they actually do to Cartman? He’s **the** most abused child on television, and I’m including Kenny!

He’s been tricked into giving a homeless man blowjobs, been tricked into sticking his hand up a donkey’s bum, accidentaly been brainwashed into being a vietnamese hooker, been crucified, and been posessed by the spirit of Kenny! And that’s just off the top of my head!

Also, what **Diogenes** asked. What’s up with Jodie Foster?

I’m pretty sure what **WSLer** meant was that Stone and Parker ripped her up so much in commentary, they couldn’t include it on the DVDs.

Don’t forget, **Eric Cartman** was also tricked into buying a teenager’s pubes for 20 dollars, tricked into giving up his kidney to save Kyle, tricked into selling his amusement park after it was making tons of money, endured alien anal-probing, had a V-chip on him and was electocuted the better part of a 2-hour movie, was stranded in the ethiopian desert, forced to hide inside Ms Chokesondick’s corpse, etc

Of particular note was an extended Stone-Parker rant about Contact, the movie starring Jodie Foster and directed by Robert Zemeckis, two big Hollywood players. South Park included a joke about how bad Parker and Stone think Contact is, and they went on at even greater length on the audio commentary.
