Sure was.

Two words: Fucking Brilliant.

Not because of any intrinsic "T+P" humor, but because of the "April Fools" element.

The absolute LAST thing anybody could've possibly expected.

People will be talking about this for MONTHS, I guarantee.

Somehow I doubt it. OK maybe I hope they aren't. If it was inventive, challenging and/or the *least* bit funny then maybe yes. But you don't talk about the trash you leave on the sidewalk, do you?

Maybe "months" was an exaggeration... let's just change that to "until the new ones start up". But you can't expect a subject that's generating 2000 messages today to just fade out right away.

Look, I don't want to see a T+P "spinoff" any more than the rest of you do. The episode as a whole was juvenile & extremely stupid, with VERY occasional flashes of the familiar Trey & Matt wit and timing. But in an April Fool's context, it was a hilarious stunt. That's the way I see it... a stunt, and nothing more. The fact that they kept that obnoxious shit up for an entire episode made it supremely ridiculous. Even after the show ended, I found myself smiling and thinking: "Damn... they got us pretty good, didn't they?"

Come on! It's not "fucking brilliant". April Fools jokes are rather conformist (and very predictable) don't you think. Plus Toilet Paper was worthless. When some people like the work of others, they refuse to admit that they might be capable of total crap like Toilet Paper.

Worked, didn't it? My faith in Matt and Trey has gone way up, and I am just laughing my ass off at the fair-weather fans who are running around yelling "BOYCOTT!" just because their sense of humor is so puny that they can't get over themselves and admit they DESERVED to be fooled.

Exactly. . .You know, in the past few weeks, as the boys turn up on the cover of TV Guide and the annoying trendoids I'm forced to work with go around screaming "Oh my God, they killed Kenny!" to each other because they read in "People" that South Park is cool now, I was beginning to worry. Was SP going to become smug, self-satisfied, like far too many formerly "cutting edge" shows have (I'm not saying anything about, say, Saturday Night Live or David Letterman, so don't think that.)

And then they do this, centering an entire episode around two characters who have never been on a show for more than 5 seconds at a time?

My faith has been restored. Granted, I have to put it at the bottom of the list of all time SP episodes, but it was a stunning move. Bravo--
