Well, the 2nd half of this season was ok, but I hated the first half, so overall, an average season at best imo.
time for their 6 month vacation. though with the quality of a few of the episodes, they don't deserve one. the list was pretty good, and guitar queer-o was a good one too.

MTV To Put Entire South Park Archive Online http://www.reuters.com/article/internetNews/idUSN2864695720071129 By Kenneth Li NEW YORK (Reuters) - MTV Networks plans to make every clip from every episode of the hit animated comedy "South Park" available for free online next year as part of a strategy to reach consumers everywhere. The decision from the biggest division of media conglomerate Viacom Inc follows on the heels of the "The Daily Show with Jon Stewart," whose popularity online has helped boost television viewership. MTV Networks' Comedy Central channel network began offering in October some 13,000 "Daily Show" videos dating back to 1999. Presenting versions of TV shows online has not hurt television ratings, and may have actually helped. "One does not diminish the other by any stretch of the imagination. That is kind of our hat trick," MTV Networks Chairman and Chief Executive Judy McGrath said at the Reuters Media Summit in New York on Wednesday. In August, Comedy Central signed an extension of a deal with "South Park" creators Matt Stone and Trey Parker, and agreed to create a new joint venture to spread "South Park" materials across the Web, on mobile phones and video games. So far, the venture, SouthParkStudios.com, features a small collection of video clips from the show. Bernstein Research said on Wednesday cable network ratings at several of Viacom's channels spiked in November, led by MTV, reversing a steep decline earlier in the year. more
Archiving shows online is a fantastic milestone for big media. It shows that they are finally embracing the full potential of media over the internet. I can get all of my shows online anyway- and they see this. I have no problem watching their embedded commercials, either, so they can get some 'revenue' from them. This goes along with Marvel Comics archiving all of their comics online. I see this as another step towards killing 'prime time' viewing. The only TV viewing that I schedule my time around now is sporting events, which are live. Now all they have to do is throw some money at the diminishing internet pipeline.

Oh that was great. lol. I wish I could have been watching that game when it came up. Thanks for posting.
I have a computer connected to my Plasma, so it's all transparent to me. It's all about convergence at this point. Having the media online is another step towards that.
