36. Since Acclaim no longer makes South Park Games, who does and what type of games are we going to see in the future?

Matt: We currently don't have a game developer. Acclaim did such a good job of fucking up the games that now no one is really that interested in the liscence. I will say this... Trey and I had little to nothing to do with the first games, and if we do another video game it will be R-rated. We wanted to do that in the first place but everyone said it was impossible. Now everyone is doing adult-themed games.

37. Where the hell did you guys find the names of all those positions in "Proper Condom Use" I'm 35 and I don't even know what the "Fish Eye" is!

Trey: Search the internet for Filthy Sanchez or Hot Karl and you'll find a couple of lists people have compiled of their favorite activities.

Matt: Heh, good reading!

Hey everyone,

After two months of hard relaxing everyone is going to be coming back to the office on October 8th ready to start the new season! New episodes will be airing November 7th so mark your calenders for the happy fun day. The people over at comedycentral.com have been selling those nifty Tweek plushes (you've probably seen the commercials by now) the people of the peanut gallery have said they're are enjoying their new found vibrating friend (sounds dirty) I'm not sure how long they're going to be on sale so to avoid the Ebay lines get yours!

As for second half of the fifth season you all should be happy to hear that starting November 7th there will be six new episodes for your viewing pleasure, none of us know right now what some of the ideas are about but once we get that information we'll post it up for everyone to see. Once again I'm happy to be back on the horse! Soon I will start posting on the main news page once all the questions have been posted. Also check out the polls section to cast your vote on the new poll!

38. Do you ever get tired of thinking up ways to kill Kenny?

Matt: YES! Most of the time we come up with Kenny's death on Monday or Tuesday before the show airs.

Trey: Its almost always the last thing to be done. But toil on we must to kill him every week.

Matt: Poor fucker.

420 - breayle: October 04, 2001

39. Are the fans ever going to see a CD of the rest of the musical numbers on South Park?

Trey: If you mean the musical numbers that have been in shows, I don't think so.

Matt: However, we will be posting MP3's of those songs from time to time, so send in your request and if we have it buried somewhere, we'll try to dig it out, full version and all.

421 - breayle: October 05, 2001

Final Question answered by Matt and Trey


40. What do the two of you plan to do after South Park is over?

Trey: After South Park, I plan on buying a vineyard and having jazz concert/wine tastings every other weekend.

Matt: And I plan on buying a organic goat and carrot farm in Montana and having wine tastings on the other weekends. And maybe run for public office. Or move to Italy. Or just rest.

422 - breayle: October 08, 2001

Hey All,

Well we're finally back in the studios today getting ready to kick off the second half of the fifth season. Starting November 7th six new tasty episodes will air. I haven't seen anything about the new shows so I can't say much about it.

Attention sweeet.com lovers! As you all have noticed juz@sweeet.com has lost all their content from reasons that I have yet to totally find out. As of now sweeet.com and beef-cake.com are down. If any of you have saved any of the 3D images/calenders etc please email juz by clicking his name above and get those back to him so he can rebuild sweeet. We hope he's back in the saddle soon.

For those of you who missed the 40 questions by Matt and Trey over the past few months I made a .pdf of all the questions download that by clicking here. Keep in mind you'll need an adobe reader to open this file, that you can get by clicking here. I finally got Episode 508: Towelie on script so to download that nyaw.

I myself would like to give special thanks to the firefighters, policemen, and volunteers who are trying to put New York back together after the September 11th tragedy, my thoughts go to the families who have lost or are missing loved ones.

Hey All,

I was looking around ebay.com and found some items that might interest you. Someone once asked me if I had any idea on how to get the South Park pinball machine. Well I looked and found nothing until today.

The South Park Pinball Machine South Park pinball machine. You've seen it in arcades great buy, if you have the dough.

A South Park figurine set of the four boys.

Timmy Lunch box This is cool, it's been a long time since I've seen a metal lunch box!

Vampire Kyle this was a limited edition plush thats no longer being sold at comedycentral.com

This guy has a whole set of South Park Plush dolls you might want.

Well it would seem that comedycentral.com is going to hold their annual South Park Halloween Costume Contest on their site not ours beginning October 17th. Now I'm not too sure about the rules for the contest but I'm sure they will post something closer to the contest launch. From what I can remember people send in their South Park style images of normal show characters in Halloween Costumes, or other people like actors, athletes, singers etc. I think you can also make yourself in South Park style too. Once your done with your image you send it in to them and it gets judged. This is their 5th time that they've done this contest and I think it's pretty cool. It lets you make your own South Park Character and I know most of you love doing that! They're also going to be airing a new show called "Beat the Geeks" on Comedy Central which is from what I can gather a game show. Right now they're looking for South Park geeks to go on the show, you can get more information by emailing THEM not ME at lmckmh@yahoo.com check it.

Hola! Amigos. Just wanted you guys to know that, yes, I am alive; and contrary to popular opinion, I am working. For those lacking in a modicum of patience, I cannot divulge what we're working on for the second half of Season Five. Mostly because we're not entirely sure ourselves. As always, S.N.A.F.U.

In light of this, not so surprising development, we'll be working on bringing you guys a couple of new interviews, more office photos of our "totally hot" crew, along with the usual behind the scenes stories from our vast catalog of past episodes. Yes, good times will be had by all.

In related news, check out our new "Employee of the Month," Steve Neuvenheim, here. He's South Park's most popular guy on Thursdays, and pretty damn popular on the other days as well. So check it!

More later.

432 - breayle: October 17, 2001

A new Employee of the Month has been selected!

It's Stan's birthday today.

Everybody say Happy Birthday to Stan.

He's such a good boy.

436 - breayle: October 19, 2001

As y'all know, holidays are a big deal here at South Park, and Halloween is no exception. As such, a couple staffers (Alison, Chris, Christian, and Josh) have already begun decorating the Studios. The main hallway looks especially cool, so we'll try to put up a photo as soon as possible.

Our Story Boarders, exhibiting their typical "school spirit" have pitched in by exclusively playing video games with spooky soundtracks (thanks guys).

And other members of the crew will probably join in by decorating their cubicles, as they have in the past. We have a fairly artistic crew here at South Park, so it should be pretty cool. I'll already have my plastic spider rings laid out, and the usual assortment of diabetic candies. Good times.

437 - breayle: October 19, 2001



New Office Photos Up!

Hello everyone! I just put four new office photos up today in the "behind the scenes" section. I will be getting you four new office photos a week so you may be seeing pictures of the staffers in their Halloween costumes soon. Check those out by clicking here. Next week things should start getting a little more busy so keep checking back here for any new information about the new episodes.

And a Hap-Hap-Happy Birthday to Mr. Trey Parker!

Hey Duders,

Well things are getting started here at the studios. Today is "Melting Pot Monday." Everyone in the office have brought in all kinds of interesting food dishes for us to munch on all day. Each person was to bring a dish that had something to do with their families or culture, and their aint nothing better then coming to work hungry and waiting for you is a ton of free food!

I got in contact with that person who's selling the South Park Pinball machine. They did try selling it on Ebay but the reserve was never met so I thought some of you might still be interested in buying the machine. Please contact them at pakmann@mac.com for more information on how you can actually purchase the pinball machine!

More news to come later!

An Evil Stan Plush Doll that is no longer available from comedycentral.com

Mr. Hankey Plush Perfect for a stocking stuffer for you early x-mas shoppers. There might be more of these that will go on sale at the comedycentral.com store closer to Christmas but just in case!

South Park Pinball Machine. This has been on sale for a little while and it's a fun game!

Orgazmo DVD from Hong Kong. Only available outside the US you can get this DVD now. I'm not sure if the DVD format is different from ours, email the seller for more details.

Juz over at sweeet.com has gotten his stuff back together and made a new 3D calendar for October, so check it out. He seems to be getting his collection of 3D images back together but he may need a little more help from those of you who have downloaded his 3D images before. Just email him at juz@sweet.com please don't send him your whole collections, that sucks. Email him and ask him what he is still in need of and if you have it, SEND IT!

And just a reminder, the South Park Annual Halloween Costume Contest is COMEDYCENTRAL.COM's contest NOT OURS so please stop emailing me about how much you think it sucks that only US residents can play, it's not my fault so please send your emails to them not me.

Hello,

I've been trying to collect some new downloads for all of you today but things might be a little hard to get. During the break between the fourth season and the fifth season South Park's animators switched from using PowerAnimator to MAYA to animate the show. Seeing how I only have MAYA on my computer things like images from past seasons will be a little harder to get a hold of, other things like Sounds will be a lot easier to do though. But I will try to get you guys some more stuff soon to beef up the downloads section a bit.

A few new questions have been answered in the FAQ's section so check those out in "The Show" section. Please keep in mind that not everyone's questions will get answered and old ones that don't get answered get deleted, and I also can't remember each person who sends in a question and doesn't get it answered so keep posting them and I'll get to it eventually.

People on the BBS have been getting a little feisty, for those of you who were gone over the weekend please read my post "Don't make me make BBS rules" to be able to understand a few things that are expected of each person on the BBS. Also arwengoenitz has a pretty nifty video of a Kenny Piniata getting the bejeezuz beaten out of him... good fun check it out in "The Kenny Piniata" thread!

I check out Amazon.com today and notice that the Orgazmo Import DVD is available there. Check that out by clicking here.

Also I've been getting tons of emails and FAQ's about the whole "Towelie the Talking Towel" that all of you saw in the commercial when the show aired. The only things from this episode that Comedy Central sold were the "I Love Towelie" and "I Hate Towelie" T-Shirts, and even those were only on sale for a week down over there at comedycentral.com. There are only three actual "Towelie's" in existance and they don't even talk. But maybe if more and more of you email Comedy Central they'll decide to finally make a real Towelie the Talking Towel. That might be as cool as the Terrible Towel from of the Steelers... only it could talk.

You should all check out the Bad Fads Museum I'm scared of the Bermuda shorts....

Hey Everyone,

Yesterday I put the new episode description up for 509 which airs here in the US next Wednesday. If you missed the description just scroll down a little and read the news bite below or go to the BBS in the "FANS" section of the site and read about it there. Remember you have to be a registered user to be able to post on the BBS, you can do that by clicking on the "new user" link under the log in box on the right.

I've also read a couple of pages for "Osama Bin Laden has Farty Pants" (how awesome is that title?) and so far it's pretty damn funny I think you guys are going to like this one. Six new episodes will be airing after the November 7th episode.



ZuZu over on the BBS started up a nice chat room for the people of the SPS.com bulletin board and I've been checking the place out from time to time so you all should download mIRC (for PC) and IRCle (for MAC) and come in and check the people in there out. They're pretty cool but I wouldn't feed them. Once you've downloaded either mIRC or IRCle install it open it up and connect to a DALnet server. Once your on type /join #spschat and your on your way. Good luck and have fun.
