Fibers was a good episode - Am the only one who thought so?

There was no deep meaning in this episode, true, but it accomplished the primary thing I watch comedy shows for, it made me laugh! Absurdist comedy is the best comedy in my opinion and it is an important element of South Park that has been largely absent over the last few seasons. Doesn't anybody remember the the good ol' days when you never knew what was gonna happen next? Don't you remember the satellite dish poping out of Cartman's ass? When there is a funny episode with a sharp cultural commentary it's the best, but when an episode isn't funny, nothing else matters.

Ministry of Silly Walks forever!!!

It sucked, like about 1/4th of the episodes but worse. They finally got around to Oprah, the world's dumbest billionaire, and botched it. Towlie was fine tho, as usual.

Ahh, back in the Character Development days. It does seem likely that this was to do with Muhammed being cut. They've showed with recent episodes that they can produce first line material on demand if they want to

There was never any chance that CC would show it though. The crazies are out in New York today foaming about how "the real holocaust is coming". There's one who lives near me. One time a customer of his was getting a parking ticket & he runs out and starts screaming haggablagga until the parking attendants back off. Civilisation just never reached these people. If the police arrested them for disorderly behaviour, it would stop. They smell weakness so shout louder. We either enforce our public decency laws or become like them. To us, we don't shout unless we are ACTUALLY coming to kill you. They shout all the time. We need to learn that

But yeah it was quite funny though. Oprah's minge held everyone hostage hehe. "I want a choppa, and a jet at the airport!"

Thing is, for most people, it wasn't funny.

It had a grand total of one genuine laugh:

...and that was it. It was a BAD episode. And it's a really BAD season so far.

I thought it was frigging hilarious! I laughed out loud more than any episode since "Cripple Fight" in season 4 or whatever it was. Watch it again, I GUARANTEE you will like it better with repeated viewings. The only truly bad episode I can remember was the Conjoined Fetus Lady/Dodgeball one ... that one sucked big time.

you're my conjoined twin.... dead thing hangin' off your head woman... Bar Brady: oh! that was so touching!

The episode had some good laughs, such as Towelie making changes to his book was funny, but overall the episode was lame. There was just too much of Oprah's body parts, way too much.

Yes, its simple absurdity was amusing.
