South Park sold for syndication

I'm surprised this has never been mentioned on this board, since it apparantly happened months ago.

South Park reruns are going to be on regular broadcast TV 5 days a week starting in September 05. So far, stations in 70% of the country have signed on to carry the show.

The episodes will be slightly edited for content, and 12-15 episodes will not be shown because there's too much to edit out.

Okay. Let's guess which episodes will be not in the syndicated version.

Definitely have a feeling that "It Hits the Fans" will not air because the amount of times the "s-bomb" is dropped.

Any episode with Jesus in it, on every Bible belt TV station.

I have a hard time picturing the whole hilarious Mr.-Garrison/Mr.-Slave/Lemmiwinks subplot from "The Death Camp of Tolerance" on broadcast TV...

OTOH any edited version would be so fucking hilarious. Esp. if done by the SP creators.

It's been announced that Tribune has picked up the South Park syndication rights for its stations, mainly WB affilates like WPIX, channel 11 in New York.

Remember, it starts in September 2005.

Why would anybody bother with it, then?
