There is nothing in South Park's seventh season to offend Tom Cruise (nothing about Scientology, at any rate; that will come in season 9). However, Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck, Rob Reiner, the Queer Eye guys, Christopher Reeve (!), war supporters and anti-war protesters, and Mormons, do not get off so easy. But, "Who cares?" as the townspeople sing in "I'm a Little Bit Country." What matters is that with this particular episode, South Park attained the precious, syndication-ready 100-episode mark! Another milestone: "Raisins," in which Wendy breaks up with Stan, who falls under the influence of the "Goth kids" ("If you want to be one of the non-comformists, all you have to do is dress just like us and listen to the same music we do"). Even by South Park standards, season 7 is pretty hardcore. In "Christian Rock Hard," Cartman is so determined to attain platinum album status before Kyle and his band that he forms a Christian rock group. The band's repertoire makes Tom Lehrer's once-scandalous "Vatican Rag" sound like "Oh, Happy Day." But mostly, South Park creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone take Cheney-like potshots at pop-culture notables. In "South Park Is Gay!", we discover what is really behind the "metrosexual" phenomenon and the true identity of the Queer Eye for the Straight Guy quartet. In "Butt Out," Rob Reiner is portrayed as a corpulent goo-filled "fascist" willing to the sanction murder (of Cartman) to further his anti-"Big Tobacco" agenda. As you can guess from the title, "Fat Butt and Pancake Head" is a merciless deconstruction of "Bennifer," as Cartman's Jennifer Lopez hand puppet dethrones the real thing, and attracts the amorous attention of Ben Affleck. "All About Mormons" anticipates the Scientology episode, "Trapped in the Closet" (not included here, and if lawyers have anything to say about it, might not be included in a season 9 set, either) with a straight-faced musical dramatization of the Joseph Smith story. "Everyone thought we were making stuff up to be funny," Parker and Stone relate in their mini commentary (optional for each episode). "But we're not. We're not making this stuff up in this show." Which is perhaps why the episode "Cancelled," which posits that Earth exists only as reality-TV fodder for aliens, doesn't seem so farfetched. --Donald Liebenson

 In the middle of South Park's golden age April 28, 2010
Ryan Nay (Centreville, VA)
I count seasons 5-10 in South Park as the show's golden age, putting season 7 deservedly right smack in the middle of it. Without question there are a few bad episodes in this season, but for every bad or mediocre episode there are 2 or 3 truly outstanding ones. My personal favorite from this season is "Raisins," which very honestly explores what it's like to lose your first girlfriend, features the very first appearance of the South Park Goth kids, and also has a very amusing sub-plot featuring Butters. "All About the Mormons?" is another classic which rips the Mormon faith a new one, yet at the same time allows the new Mormon kid character a great line at the end of the episode. "Christian Hard Rock" is an amusing episode and also I believe the first time we get to see Cartman really get his ass kicked, which I think everyone had been hoping to see for quite a while. "Casa Bonita" is one of the best Cartman/Butters episodes ever (though all of them are good- hard to go wrong with a pair like that!). "Toilet Paper" is another hilarious Cartman and Kyle-centric episode. And finally "Fatbutt and Pancake Head," probably the most notorious episode from this season, is 30 minutes of tribute to the genius of Trey Parker. Who else could possibly manage to make a show where the central character is a talking hand puppet that is also a racist stereotype, and include scenes where an 8-year old boy gives an adult man a handjob, and still have it be just about the funniest thing ever? Genius, pure and simple. The weaker episodes this season come in the form of "Butt Out"- one of the show's worst episodes that really tries way too hard to make it's point (and which isn't even a very good point to begin with); "Grey Dawn" and "Red Man's Greed"- which both tend to drag on a bit and run with the same joke for too long; and finally "South Park is Gay!"- which ended with the introduction of the crab people. This ending was so incredibly corny "crab people" has now become a euphemism for "running out of ideas."
