Right now, the episode is more in a "B" territory for me.

Dana Snyder = Master Shake (Aqua Teens) and the Alchemist (The Venture Brothers)

You're not alone, as the whole subplot involving Cartman is the one thing that prevented ImaginationLand from being a true classic IMO.

By "Trey and Mat's worst", I'm referring to episodes like Pee and Human CentiPad.

I think the big problem with South Park in recent years is this:

Really, a B+? This episode is pretty much a D at best, as the first act didn't have any real laughs at all, with the rest of the episode being basically two elements of South Park that are among its biggest problems: one-note humor and episodes where Kyle is treated as a butt monkey (with Trey and Matt pretty much

Could understand that. You don't want Trey and Matt to feel the wrath of the Super Rad.

My guess as to why South Park didn't show Ike taking off his pants: Trey and Matt likely kept the more "perverted" moments involving Foofa off-camera in order to avoid major trauma in case some kid actually tries to watch this episode just because it features the Yo Gabba Gabba cast.

I think Phil is referring to the death of the leader of the Church of Black Klok.

In terms of Charles, the ending reveals that he has become the new priest of the Church of the Black Klok (meaning that Dethklok is still his "bread and butter").

I don't think Duck Dynasty and South Park are similar (after all, one is a "scripted reality" show and the other is a cartoon for adults). It's just that, as Mr. Ellsworth pointed out, both shows are on Wednesday night at the same time, and if I had to choose between one or the other, I'd go with Duck Dynasty (and

While I agree with The Period Monster that The Purge is awful (seriously, it's main gimmick is completely unnecessary, being nothing more than a device to allow for a home invasion plot), I could so see Trey and Matt spoofing this film in some way in a spoof about the government shutdown. However if they do this type

Pretty much agree here, with the weak episodes being a reason why I've been watching Duck Dynasty over South Park recently.

Definitely agree that the Dr. Seuss parody was the best of the three stories. You can tell that the shows writers have done their research when it comes to Dr. Seuss, with not just spoofs to the stories that most people are familiar with, but also references to lesser known works (i.e. Bartholomew Cubbins passed out

Definitely agree that the episode is in the "C" territory. For Butters, there's nothing really funny about the whole "DMV as a church" sub-plot (although I did like his night time prayer to the government and Barbrady's appearance).

Heck no! Randy is one of the biggest problems with South Park as it is (at least IMO).

I haven't watched the finale myself as I've been getting into Duck Dynasty recently (five words: dead beaver in a sink), but I've read comments about it on a message board I go to regularly, and that's pretty much the issue that some people had with the finale.

If any My Little Pony episode deserves to be covered in the TV Roundtable in terms of controversial episodes, I'd definitely would go with "The Last Roundup" due to the "Derpygate" incident.

In terms of this episode, I see it more than just a look at curse words: I also see this as a satire of how TV shows (and movies) would use gimmicks in an attempt to attract viewers (with it being meta as the episode itself given how it involves the "s-word" being said numerous time a contest to guess how many times

Very much agree with Spanakoptia being the worst episode of the season. Face it: St. Cloud isn't really that interesting of a villain when compared to the other characters on the show (not to mention that the episode took time away from giving some focus to the Venture boys, who felt pretty much underused this season
