We make South Park in house with American animators. We do not send the show out of the country to be animated. There is nothing wrong with outsourcing Animation. Koreans and Indians have the right to work on projects just as much as we do. In fact I feel bad for them because they have to work on Family Guy

But, as I said before, South Park does do all of its animation in-house. We do almost everything right here in our very own studio as most of you fans already know. It's a unique set up that requires all of that fancy computer equipment in the photos you just saw. We also need JJ to manage all that gear, and to keep JJ on top of his game, we need Lucky Charms as well.



Let's review. We have an incredible render farm, over 180 servers, terabytes of data storage and mega-power back up capabilities on which the show depends. All this high tech equipment and more is maintained by JJ, who is the head of our IT department. And JJ loves lucky charms. We can conclude then, that if we don't have Lucky Charms in the South Park kitchen at all times , the franchise is not safe. And it’s my job to make damn sure we have that bogus emerald isle cavity-causing breakfast treat.

See, I’m important after all. My mom was right.

I see darkness

EDIT:

Nevermind, it's up now.

Welcome to the crew.

I posted before it was up, apparently.

So the entire means of production of SP relies on Luck Charms? Keep those damn kids away from our Leprechaun, then.

Of course you are important. Not only are you the head of IT dept, you also manage to live with your skin disease...

Most people like you would start feeling sorry for themselves and cry in the corner, "ooh, help, my skin is scaly and I have a facial deformity and nobody likes me!" Booo! Whaaaa! All they can do is whine about never losing their virginity and always being a deformed monstrosity that looks like a cross between a Parrot and Sebulba from Star Wars ep 1!
But not you. No, you don't let your flaws take the best of you. Sure you'll never have a girlfriend or children, BUT you still manage to enjoy a great job, and a great bowl of cereal. Who needs to be "normal", anyways? I commend you, and greatly admire your strength!

Lucky charms for the lizard!

... or dragon?

PS, you look smaller than I imagined. It might be the giant cereal boxes though.

So thats the secret behind the magic Lucky Charms.

That's what I love about South Park! It's made 100% in our God blessed USA! But I do feel sorry for the Koreans who have to work on such a poorly plotted, flat character, gaggy show like Family Guy. That's also probably way Family Guy couldn't respond to Cartoon Wars (it would have taken 9 months for their backlash). I support our homeland, that's why I like home made stuff, like South Park.

By the way, grat job you you guys in the production staff (Chris, Todd, and all the other guys who remain unknown). Last week's episode was excellent. I personally give it 10/10. You can also tell when a South Park episode is going to be good when the rest of the media gives it a negative reviews.

Good job and continue doing what you guys do best. Hope you all stay on after Season 15 for another round of episodes. God Bless America and God Bless South Park (Ironic because I'm not Christian)

glad to see you guys are employing people here when the unemployment rate is rising. Im a web-tech student an jj, mad props for managing 180 servers. you must be usin somethin more than sugary cereal. you guys need to do an episode where you pick on chris angel. that fool sux. maybe explain all his "levatation" tricks by havin him shove a giant aluminum balloon up his ass. he coulsd also do it to others before he "levatates" them too...you know real quick like before anyone notices.

Silly dragon, Lucky Charms are for kids!

Wait wha...?

Aw, AWW! Isn't it always the way? Now I've come up with something better to say than what I previously wrote...

Man, I've put some odd stuff on my head in photos in the past, but that f*ckin' trumps anything I've got. Awesome.

they caught me lucky charms

I feel bad for them too, but not because they have to work on Family Guy, I feel bad for them because they have to work on The Simpsons, which sucks.

Yes, but the fact that they also work on The Venture Bros. over there totally negates both the horridity of Family Guy and the suckitude of The Simpsons.
