Quotes
Mr Swanson: Jimmy, we've told you before, God made you the way he did for a reason.
Jimmy: Right, because you and Mum used to make fun of crippled kids in high school.
Mr Swanson: That's right, you were sent here through the vengeful and angry hand of God to teach your mother and I a lesson. And that's a big responsibility, son.
Jimmy: Look, my gang - which I can't talk about because it's super secret - is the most important thing to me now. And if you two don't like it, you can just pass the blunt to the nigga on your left.
[Mrs Swanson bawls]

Huh?!?!

Normally, I absolutely LOVE South Park, even supporting unpopular episodes "Eat, Pray, Queef", "Pip", and "Not Without My Anus", but this was HORRIBLE!!! I am fine with South Park making fun of gangs (that part was wonderful), but the Christopher Reeve subplot went TOO far. If they had just had him using stem cells, but NOT eating them, and trying to kill Gene Hackman, and going psychotic, it would have been better. I got SICK watching every scene with him wishing he could rise up and kick Trey and Matt where it hurts, and please do not tell me that his attempt to use stem cells to be superhuman was funny, as it just added to the mockery.

This may seem prudish, which it is, but I LOVE it when South Park goes over the edge ("Pee" and "Go, God Go" being good examples), but knowing a quadriplegic (not Reeve) this episode hit home for me, and my friend cried when he saw the episode feeling it belittled a good cause, and hero, too much.

I guess even South Park have a limit to what they can handle, and this was mine.
