After 13 seasons and 195 episodes, South Park has had countless classics. In this post, I have narrowed it down to what are my five favorite episodes of the entire series. This was a difficult task and I'm sure many of you will disagree with my picks but here they are:
This episode revolves around the controversial topic of child molestation by priests. The South Park priest, Father Maxi, travels to the Vatican to try to solve the problem and people start to poop out of their mouth. There are several classic moments in this episode including: anytime people poop out of their mouth, Father Maxi at the Vatican, the Gelgameks, and the Queen Spider. This episode featured the classic satire that South Park is known for.
Stan agrees to help a group of adorable woodland critters build a manger in anticipation of the birth of their lord and savior, only to find it is the antichrist. I love this episode for so many reasons. The lion cubs learning to perform abortions is hilarious and the corny names of the critters, like Beary the bear, are funny small aditions. Also, the twist that these cute woodland critters are actually followers of satan is hilarious.
3. Night of the Living Homeless
The homeless come to South Park in this "Dawn of the Dead" parody. The episodes hilarious parodies of countless zombie films makes this episode an instant classic. Some of my favorite moments are: the suicide attempt by the homeless expert, Cartman jumping the homeless, and when the boys lead the homeless to the California by singing a modified version of "California Love."
In this episode, Cartman is appointed hall monitor and Kyle finds out that his little brother is sleeping with his Kindergarten teacher. Cartman acting like Dog the Bounty Hunter is the highlight of the episode, especially when he assembles his team to find Ike. Just seeing Beth, or Dawg's Bitch, with breasts so large you can only see above her forehead, makes me crack up every time. Also, it's great when Kyle tries to turn the kindergarten teacher into the police only to have the police respond to the complaint with "Nice!"
After being tricked into buying Scott Tenorman's pubic hairs, Cartman sets off on a quest of revenge, resulting in one of the darkest and funniest episodes of all time. Each plot for revenge Cartman comes up with is worse than the last, ending with cartman feeding Scott his parents at the Chili Con Carnival cookoff. The end when Cartman reveals his plot to everyone at the cookoff is the funniest moment of the entire series, and the part when Cartman is licking the tears off of Scott's face is icing on the cake.
Well, that's my list of top five South Park episodes. For anyone reading this article, I encourage you to post your own list, crap all over my list, or praise it. See you next week with my top Cartman Moments.
I agree with number 1... but what about the Imaginationland 3 episode series?? That was epic in my eyes.
