polkadotjewel Re: *Episode 1201 Post-Air Discussion* Oh, wow...I would have never expected that Cartman would have been given AIDS!! =o Reply
Jake, M'kay? Re: *Episode 1201 Post-Air Discussion* Oh my god he just gave Kyle HIV Reply
AssassinKenny Re: *Episode 1201 Post-Air Discussion* This is better than I expected so far. Reply
triplemultiplex Re: *Episode 1201 Post-Air Discussion* (reposted from old thread)

Ha, ha, hA!!! Cartman has AIDS!!! Serves you right, dickface! I'm laughing along with Kyle. And I'll be rooting for him when you two throw down later tonight.

Oh, and yet another piece of evidence that Cartman is gay and has a secret boy-crush on Kyle:
"I sneak into Kyle's room all the time." Reply
Metal_Meatwad Re: *Episode 1201 Post-Air Discussion* HA HA HA ERIC HAS AIDS! This song is hilarious! Greatest episode ever.
Greatest line: I'm not just sure, I'm HIV POSITIVE!
OMG Kyle has AIDS!
I'm now sure this episode will be banned.
Son have you taken it up the who haw?
The key is Magic Johnson! Reply
polkadotjewel Re: *Episode 1201 Post-Air Discussion* lol This episode keeps on getting better and better...first Cartman gets HIV / AIDS, then Kyle, and now they're pretending to have cancer to see Magic Johnson...amazing!!! Reply
nall Re: *Episode 1201 Post-Air Discussion* You have to admit, there are some classic lines here. Reply
triplemultiplex Re: *Episode 1201 Post-Air Discussion* I have never hated Eric Cartman more than I do tonight. Watching Kyle whoop his fat ass was so completely satisfying. It wasn't enough yet.

As a recent owner of an xBox, I loved it when Kyle threaten to break Cartman's. Reply
polkadotjewel Re: *Episode 1201 Post-Air Discussion* And that episode was simply AMAZING. What a wonderful, hilarious way to start a new season. Reply
Metal_Meatwad Re: *Episode 1201 Post-Air Discussion* What were the last lines of the episode?
Best episode in some time.
10/10 Reply
Jake, M'kay? Re: *Episode 1201 Post-Air Discussion* I agree. Awsome episode! 9.8/10 Reply
ambernich Re: *Episode 1201 Post-Air Discussion* I'm almost as disappointed as when the Spice Girls originally broke up with the new episode. That's actually not sarcasm either. I truly am disappointed. Regardless it is just a fictional cartoon anyway. Reply
IZSBHR Re: *Episode 1201 Post-Air Discussion* The scene where Kyle beats the crap out of Cartman has to be one of my favorite South Park moments. But what's gonna happen to Clyde Frog Now that his head's been severed?

@ Metal_Meatwad:

Kyle says "I'm still breaking your Xbox." Reply
d31avenger Re: *Episode 1201 Post-Air Discussion* WOW, this episode was awful, south park is my favorite show of all time. However the last couple years there stuff has no relevance and is just puzzleing, i think they are losing touch and the show is really starting to suck Reply
triplemultiplex Re: *Episode 1201 Post-Air Discussion* The end was a little week, but I did enjoy the money cure for AIDS joke in Africa.

Strong season opener on the whole.

And that was the best ass-handing Cartman has ever gotten. That was an immortal scene. That was about 3 seasons in the making. Good job guys! Reply
DevilAngel16 Re: *Episode 1201 Post-Air Discussion* What were the last lines of the episode?

Cartman says, "Well, I know one thing's for sure. I'm never getting my tonsils taken out again!" and Kyle says, "I'm still breaking your X-box."

Anyway...that was awesome! Butters kissing Cartman's cheek and Kyle beating the crap out of Cartman were two of my favorite parts.

Good stuff. I loved it.

Hahhaa, everyone thought Kyle and Cartman were gay lovers. XDD Reply

Why do people love to pretend that shows are getting less funny when they aren't? South Park's last few seasons have been some of their best. Reply
themanthecartman Re: *Episode 1201 Post-Air Discussion* awesome episode 9/10 loved it, funny how money cured it that was a good episode Reply
iluvkenny35 Re: *Episode 1201 Post-Air Discussion* hilarious!! i'm practically speechless!! when the doctor told cartman he had aides, i swear i was laughing harder than kyle did! the new theme song is super bad-ass also. and freaking ADORABLE!!!! overall i give the ep 5479841698468464646/10 stars!! Reply
Stanley_Marsh109 Re: *Episode 1201 Post-Air Discussion* A pretty lackluster episode. Most of the dialogue seemed uncreative and forced. I got a few laughs out of it, but it was pretty boring for the most part.

Agreed. The fact that season 11 kicked serious ass cannot be denied. Tonight's episode may not have been the greatest ever, but it was still better than most of the other crap that's on TV. Reply
rlanantelope Re: *Episode 1201 Post-Air Discussion* this episode is why I love South Park. It's so educated that it's just so effin' lewed, it's brilliant. Best show on television, and has been for the last few years.

Brillaint episode. Loved the whole Jimmy Buffet thing, it made me die. Then they break into kyles house "Yeah I've broken into kyles a lot..." hahah Reply
AssassinKenny Re: *Episode 1201 Post-Air Discussion* I'd give it an 8.5-8.75/10. It started strong and had some great lines but after a while it got predictable (who didn't see money being the cure?). Also there wasn't any crazy side-story lines to go along with the main one. Reply
