SOUTH PARK
TITLE: RAISING THE BAR
Episode #1609 Air date: October 3, 2012

Cartman finally admits he’s fat and immediately gets a mobility scooter.

I'm trying not to laugh but can't help but... . Seeing two fat people down the grocery isle, waiting in line for what looks like Disneyland. Just seeing images like that in this week's episode should be funny. Don't know what the plot actually will be. Okay, Cartman gets a scooter. Now what? Of course he will abuse it somehow. The idea of Cartman's weight issues actually being addressed, at least since Fat Camp, is interesting so look forward to see where this goes.

This should be good i hate the way they speed along on the path. There is a guy who lives near me who has one, i have seen him park it outside and walk around the supermarket where i work and to the pub i drink in he don`t need it surely.

Hooboy!

As I said in the Season 16 pre-pre air thead, this topic has been discussed before in episode 415, "Fat Camp" (Cartman's weight). I wonder why they're revisiting this subject now.

Just three words: Honey Boo Boo.

And another one: Eeeeewwww!!!

Well, it was inevitable, wasn't it?

Two reasons: Honey Boo Boo, and mobility scooters. These were missing from "Fat Camp." Now where's my Hoveround?

Right Here

WOW...this episode looks really promising! It's got a Kyle-vs.-Cartman element AND a Cartman's-twisted-mental-complex element. If it turns out as good as Le Petit Tourette and Jewpacabra, I'll be super stoked. Either ways it'll be a HUGE step up from Sarcastaball.

Look forward to the rip on Honey Boo Boo as well. That show is utter trash, even by reality show standards. And we would've spared ourselves of this train wreck of a show if it hadn't been for the whole Toddlers & Tiaras B.S. Oh how I hate TLC...

Never heard of it, did a quick google search.....That was enough.

I hope they take a damn hard jab at people who are so obese, they have to use a fucking scooter to get around. People who are that fat disgust the living fuck out of me.

Genetics, my dick. That shit is a lifestyle choice that nobody, even in their wrong mind, should ever make. They ought to ban these Jell-O blobs from parking in handicapped spaces, too. You slap their skin and you get tsunami waves bigger than those off Japan's northeast coast.

Here's looking at you, Alana Thompson, and your sick, fatass southern trash family.

Cartman. Wal-Mart. Honey Boo Boo. The possibilities for funny moments are endless!! So glad they are taking aim at these blimps that scoot around like Jabba the Hutt!

Great to hear that SP will start ripping on Honey Boo Boo and her backwards, inbred family. Hopefully this episode takes back the ratings South Park rightfully owns.

I keep getting a server error message when I try to view the Press Release Information. Oh well, the clip is great as well as the press images. I want to try that candy corn Oreo. XD And uh-oh, Honey Boo Boo... That will be fun. This will be great!
