All I know is that I can't watch the episode on southpark's site. Not cool. I hope the south park guys sort things out with viacom so they can air it properly.

yeah wtf? Trey & Matt posted a letter to their fans on southparkstudios.com as well..

A Statement from Matt and Trey

In the 14 years we've been doing South Park we have never done a show that we couldn't stand behind. We delivered our version of the show to Comedy Central and they made a determination to alter the episode. It wasn't some meta-joke on our part. Comedy Central added the bleeps. In fact, Kyle's customary final speech was about intimidation and fear. It didn't mention Muhammad at all but it got bleeped too. We'll be back next week with a whole new show about something completely different and we'll see what happens to it.

WTF. You guys actually got to watch it on Wednesday night?! I have Dish Network for my TV and the 201st episode didn't even air. They replayed the Facebook episode instead. Damn.

The first airing for me on FiOS was the 201 episode but the usual reairing later in the night of the new episode was the facebook one.

Yeah, I saw that too. I'm kinda surprised they don't have the final say; isn't South Park one of the shows that "made" Comedy Central?


It's a cool idea, but I think it would have to be embraced by the media to have a real impact. I'm sure there are tons of images on 4chan of Mohammad, very few flattering.

Is there anywhere to watch 200/201 online, uncensored? I'd really like to see both.

This 2 part episode sucked balls.

I want to see an uncensored version too. I just want to see what they say at the end. It was a pretty terrible episode overall, though.

It was a homage episode. I thought it very entertaining, especially for long term fans. If felt rushed at the end but that is understandable given the amount of material they had in. Poor pip :(

I thought it was a decent episode. I liked how they finally got rid of Tom Cruise.

"A place where I can live out my days in peace and quiet?! - Can you show me where?"

"We'll do better than that, we'll help you get there" :awe:

wtf?! Even allsp doesn't have the video. That's the first time I can recall seeing the message "this video has been removed due to infringement." Infringing upon Comedy Central? Or infringing upon Mohammed?

That and the brief appearance by Scott Tenorman were the only things worth a damn in the two episodes. Even without the censoring they were going to be lame.

Well, at least they portrayed the prophet Mohammed using his 2nd Amendment rights, the right to "bear arms".

Anyone who actually watched episode 201 knows that the censorship was intentional on the part of the creators and not the studio.

what was with the whale on the moon. I didn't get that part

There was an episode where the kids wanted to send a whale to the moon because the employees at a seaworld type of attraction tricked the kids into thinking the whale could speak. They told the children that the whale's true home was the moon and it wanted to get back. so they actually managed to send the whale to the moon. The episode ends with a pic of a dead whale on the moon.
