Heya
Loved tonight's episode - LOL quite a bit.
Anyway, the point of my post is WHAT THE HELL IS UP WITH THE CREDITS? This is the first time I recall them doing the 'window' thing with their schedule during South Park. Hope this isn't a permanent thing. It really pisses me off! THink Comedy Central would listen to our complaints?
Who else is buggered by this?
What kind of idiots watch the credits?

I'm more surprised at how different the credits to this season are in contrast to last season. Instead of the original theme music that used to be played in most of last season (except for #105 and 201) they've been using music that either was heard directly or undirectly in the episode. They also gone back to doing thier credtis very fast as well, one thing I do hate to see, since it wrecks any acknowlegement of the people who brought us this great show. I bet this is Matt & Trey's idea to the networks who do that split-screen generic crap with the credits they run on sitcoms, drama, and movies (both theatrical and made-for-tv). I hate those a lot. At least ehy credit the companies that provided the instuments for Chef's big music scores (I think).
I'm one of those, but I figure that the episodes are "tainted" anyway because they're censored! Eventually, (on video or something) they'll release un-censored versions and *those* will be "untainted". I'll just wait for those...

The same kind of idiots that like to see the hidden or cute jokes sometimes contained therein (if you didn't slo-mo the credits to 'Not Without My Anus', then you missed half the show!). I love how they thank Zildjian every episode...reminds me of the liner notes from every single rock album. :-)
Every episode I watch the credits to see the writers. Usually the best eppies were pure Trey Parker, and I try to prove that by checking all the credits (don't say I'm weird. I already know)
Exceptions:
Not Without My Anus: Matt & Trey
The Mexican Staring Frog of Southern Sri Lanka: Yes, I liked this one. And yes, I believe Matt, Trey, and maybe some other dude wrote this one (I saw at least 2 names there)

Richard Nixon's daughter writes for "South Park"? Who would've thought it?
Actually, the episode was written by somebody named "Monica Lewinsky," which explains why . . . well . . .
Those of us who respect the people who created the show?

This is called a "credit squeeze". If you watch any broadcast show, you will see it now standard practice. It lets the networks promote other shows in the area of the screen that has been freed up by the credit squeeze.

I haven't seen any 'credit squeeze.' Maybe they only show this during the first airing of South Park on Wednesdays. When I watched it on the second airing (that's the only time I can watch it 'cause my little brother and sister aren't allowed to see it, and I live in Mountain time when the first broadcast is @ 8:00) last night, I got all of the credits at normal size.

No offense, but Comedy Central doesn't care of your complaints, if they did then South Park wouldn't even be on the air right now, you should be happy of that and not bitching of credits, geez, k, snoogins.......

Look on the bright side: At least they don't overdub the song with someone (Most likely, Penn) talking.
Good point! And it kinda makes me sad that Penn hosts Comedy Central. Isn't he and Teller still doing magic, or is he just going to host forever? I loved their magic ~~
