I realize I may be whooshed here, but that’s exactly what’s going on with the ‘Terrance And Philip’ show they watch.
Certified public accountants?
Well, there were the two nerdy college kids who helped Timmy go back in time. You know, the guys who argued over Star Trek. But yeah, they haven’t done much.
Have they done Britney Spears?? I know they did J-Lo and Paris Hilton, and I think they had Christina Aguilera once looking godawful (not that I can find a cite), but I can’t recall them doing Britney Spears…
And doing Britney Spears isn’t the kind of thing you’d forget!
Pap got drunk, and Huck Finn ran away
Jim wouldn’t be sold, 'druther stray
Watson’s will set Jim free
And Huck’s Pap – R.I.P.!
Waste of time? Not if Twain made it pay!
Sorry, meant the above post for the “LOTR Limerick Smackdown” thread.
I’m a librarian, and I don’t think they’ve done anything with librarians yet. There would be some material to work with there, too, what with the controversy about the Patriot Act.
Schizophrenics
Hack writers
eccentric billionares
indie filmmakers
professional ghost chasers
(1) Well, there was the Cartman/J-Lo/Mitch Connor thing… but yeah, I think you’re mostly right here. And maybe Kenny in Cartman’s body could count too, but not much.
(2) They bashed Ayn Rand in the Chickenfucker episode
(3) George Lucas? Oooh, and Bill Gates in the movie
(4) The one with the Sundance Film Festival going to SP, with the gay cowboys eating pudding (hehe)
(5) Does the Scooby Doo/Korn thing count?
There was also the end of the “Metrosexual” episode, where they brought back the “Latin Fad”, and the dads were speaking some spanish and such.
Oh, and cartman’s dig at the beginning of the J.Lo episode.
I don’t know if it counts, but they did make fun of “physic” crime solvers. I tend to think of them as being mostly the same thing.
Immature white boys?
Wasn’t the entire “Who is Cartman’s Dad?” April first episode a Slam to the audience?
Librarians? They did something related early. The Chicken-***** guy drove a bookmobile. Good point about the LOTR stuff, but it’s not the same without paper and dice and summoning Satan to put curses on the other children and having a cult with hoods.
Well, there was Butters having the tape of Cartman dressed as Britney & singing along to her music & making out with a cardboard cutout of Justin Timberlake.
I could have sworn I remembered seeing Freddy Mercury in an episode, with those white pants and yellow jacket of his, but I don’t think they were making fun of him. I wouldn’t be suprised if they didn’t know he was a born Zoroasterian.
Even more appropriate, I think, is the John Edward “Biggest Douche in the Universe” episode.
How about left-handed people?
Indians? From India, that is, they did the other ones in “Red Man’s Burden.”
Don’t recall them making fun of us left-handers either, although when you have your main characters wear mittens 99% of the time because fingers are a bitch to animate I don’t suppose they’ve thought of it.
Plain People (the Amish and Mennonites and Hutterites)? Trouble is, they’d have no idea that you’re doing it. No TV’s and all.
I’d say just about any group. The makers of the show want to piss off people, and the show’s fan club floats on the perception that it’s pissing off people, but there’s little real evidence that it’s actually pissing off people.
*There is no holiday season in India, I’ve heard
They don’t hang up their stockings, and that is just absurd
They’ve never read a Christmas story,
They don’t know what Rudolph is about.
And that is why in December I’ll go to India and shout
Hey there Mr Hinduist, Merry Fng Christmas
Drink Egg Nog and eat some Beef and pass it to the Missus
In case you haven’t noticed it’s Jesus’ birthday
So get off your heathen Hindu ass and fng celebrate*
