Also as a wrestling fan, I appreciated the references and the embellishment of storylines. I just feel that the episode had so much more potential than what was actually delivered. I felt like I was watching Family Guy because I appreciated the humor, but I didn't laugh out loud.

My thoughts exactly...

I thought they nailed it down perfectly, the episode overall wasnt that funny.

But as a former WWE fan I thought they nailed it right on the head because WWE is nothing but embelished storylines and real "wrastling" does remind me of G** P*** XD.

Admittedly, I was in stitches when they were casting for replacements for Butters and the others. Mainly because I was actually in a production of "A Chorus Line" which they ripped off HILARIOUSLY. Other than that, just the "THEY TOOK OUR JOBS" was the only other thing that got me.

One other thing I should point out is that, as much as just about everyone seemingly approves of the episode because of the fanbase familiarity, doesn't this episode seem to slam more of the fans rather than just wrestling itself?.......

AirUpThere · 10-22-2009, 10:16 PM

That episode was not very funny, end of story.

I slams the moron fans like red-necks (in the show) and such. But almost all of us the the PW thread, or any involved fan, have some semblance of knowledge that wrestling is fake, story-lines, etc. We watch for the entertainment and athletic skill some of the best pro wrestling matches/feuds have produced over the years.

I thought this episode was boring as hell.

10/28 - Whale Whores

Alot of fishy hate is goin on when every whale and dolphin ends up getting slaughtered by Japanese mobs. Eventually it affects Stan after a family trip to a sea-life park goes horribly wrong after one of these attacks. With his friends negligent in this cause, Stan seeks out to join up with the crew from the TV show 'Whale Wars' in order to stop the attacks. When Stan's "takeover" of the show becomes too "successful", he ends up dealing with more problems than he originally thought he could handle. What could be done to stop the vicious Japanese onslaught?

Another ho ho episode, and NOT ha ha.
But I'm sure the gripes will come.....

Angelicdiablo264 · 10-29-2009, 04:34 PM

I like how they made fun of "The deadliest catch" or whatever it's called, that was hella funny.

Coooooow!!?! and CHickeennnnn!!!!?

I actually thought W.T.F was the best episode this season [so far]

I don't know why. I don't care for wrestling [I do think it looks kinda... bent] or about WWE in general, but I just found the sub-stories and how the rednecks took them seriously to be absolutely hilarious.

And speaking of which, the return of "THEY TOOK OUR JOBS" was very welcome.

[My favorite part though was when he "wrastled" the policeman, and the latter said "Wowww, the **** is this?" with a smile]

As for Whales Whores... Okayyy I guess. Too much violence, and they spent a good part just ripping on that fat guy whom I've never heard of before...

I did like the rockband bit and the ending.

**piccolo#1** · 10-29-2009, 06:47 PM

I liked the episode a lot. Cartman's rendition of Lady Gaga's "Pokerface" was hilarious and the highlight of the episode for me at least. And if you've ever seen Whale Wars, it was pretty much a dead on spoof. The "fat guy" is pretty much exactly as they spoofed him as. I'm being a bit nitpicky here but I thought the Japanese hord was a bit too much like the Mongolian hords from episodes past but who cares, I love the Mongolians on South Park.

I almost S*** myself when that was happening, that has to be the best part of the whole episode.

Armageddomon Deus · 10-29-2009, 10:05 PM

Cartman's song was pretty amusing, but I didn't want to base the entire episode on just that though.... not really memorable enough for me unlike other songs like Chef's Salty Chocolate Balls song in the past.

Reaper of Despair · 10-31-2009, 04:46 PM

I probably would've enjoyed the episode more if I knew just what the hell Whale Wars was. I don't pay attention to crappy reality shows about people's jobs on the various incarnations of TLC/The Discovery Channel/A&E. In fact, I think the episode would've been more of a success if they'd spoofed that whole genre, as opposed to just two shows.

JLewko · 11-01-2009, 12:22 AM

"Here is a picture of the plane that dropped the bomb: the Enola Gay. And these are the pilots. Weiru!!! And Dorfiiiiiiiin!!!"

That was possibly the funniest thing I've seen so far this half-season.

11/4 - The F Word

Well this time we take a look at some of the other overlooked little problems in life. As the town tries to enjoy a peaceful day, it's suddenly shattered when the roaring herd of multiple Harleys hits the road. As the bikers think there is nothing wrong with their noise, the boys grow ever annoyed as they slowly but surely give the bikers a piece of their mind. Once the bikers realize they are the intended target of a F-Bomb, things get much worse when the "bomb" gets out of hand, and it starts affecting the other minorities. Will the town be able to handle the largest F-Bomb catastrophe it has ever experienced?

Interesting episode from what I saw. Subject material was kinda unexpected too. One thing's for sure, it kinda delivers in the lulz department which is more the style the show was losing in the first place.......

**piccolo#1** · 11-05-2009, 12:00 AM

I didn't care for it at all. Really lackluster performance. They had one joke, a bad one at that (the bikers making noises) and that's about it.

Angelicdiablo264 · 11-06-2009, 02:40 PM

My mom has a friend who rides a harley and also thinks she is badass.

So that episode was very funny to me.

But the Whale and Dolphin one was so much better.

11/11 - Dances With Smurfs

It's time for another Cartman-starring episode! This time Cartman sets his sights on taking over the school morning announcer position. His real agenda ends up turning into bashing long time rival Wendy Testaberger on her Student President position by any means necessary. Surprisingly, Wendy tries not get involved in Cartman's drama and schemes, but eventually something has to be done when Cartman lets things go his way for too long. Can Wendy beat Cartman who is now using the power of Glen Beck?

As great as this episode could've been, its a shame it got pretty one-sided throughout the rest of the entire episode.... though I did like the stuttering kid and Cartman's new hairdo for what it was worth......

Moronic j1zzrag......lol

11/18 - Pee

This year's season finale has Kyle facing an epidemic of 'peeposterous' proportions. During a visit to a water theme park, the boys try to enjoy the rides and different pools there. But while Cartman runs into a personal crisis of his own bigoted designs, Kyle comes into much bigger revelations that he was never even aware of. Will Cartman and Kyle's fears coincide with the impending doom foretold in 2012? Does the answer really lie in just a banana?

Well for an year-ending episode, it was interesting, but nothing awe inspiring in the least. Dunno about you, but the whole episode almost felt like it couldve been a good ender for one of the primary seasons many years back.... I was actually hoping for a more outrageous ending, as opposed to the recent 'baw' endings we've been getting alot of lately.....

Even Mr. Hankey episodes had more twang.....but they don't use him anymore......
