Now that they’ve taken down everyone from the Scientologists to Paris Hilton, have South Park creators Matt Stone and Trey Parker run out of targets? (Hey, Rob Reiner: Watch your back!) Interview by Mickey Rapkin
You did an episode about Paris Hilton, in which she opens up a retail store called Stupid Spoiled Whore. Why pick on Paris?
Trey Parker: Okay, for me, she’s a whore. Whatever. She’s a dumb, ugly whore. But then I walked into a Guess? store, and she was all over the place. I’m like, Wait a minute, they’re treating her like a glamorous model now? Does anyone notice how dangerous this could be to little girls?
On-screen she eventually competes with Mr. Slave in a “whore-off.” How do you come up with an idea like that?
TP: I think she came up with that idea, actually. We just made a cartoon out of it.
How does the show manage to be so topical? Do you really write and produce every episode in six days?
TP: Yes. The hours are absolutely brutal, and they have been for nine years now. We show up on Thursday morning at nine o’clock, and usually we don’t have even an idea for what the show is gonna be about. And we go into the writers room and we’re in there freaking out, and every week I’m like, Why do we do this? Why do we do this? There are a lot of ways we come at show ideas. But we’ll look at things happening in the news. Maybe we say, Let’s do a Paris Hilton episode. Let’s rip on her for being such a whore. And let’s rip on America for embracing her for being such a whore. Now we think, What could be one funny scene? An example is, We should have the Stupid Spoiled Whore Video Playset, and do a little commercial. Immediately, I have to go out of the room and go write just that scene because we’ve gotta get animators going on something. Then I’ll run back to the writers room and go, Okay, now what could come after that scene? Why does that scene exist? We really get to sculpt the show.
I want see them do episode on Islam or Cindy Sheehan that be cool LOL!
Bunch of damned Hippies! I'll kick you all right in the Nuts!
No, not 'your' side. Not Republicans. However they are they are what conservatives used to, and for the most part with perhaps the exception of religion, should still be.
Tom Cruise OMG come out of the closet I cant do it right
The best show on TV ! The global warming episode from this season is on tonight. Damn funny.
Hippies ! I hate hippies !!
Great article... I love those guys :~D
They rip on stupid people, whoever they may be. There are plenty of them on "our side" and they definitly don't spare them. It's just, right now, there are a lot more stupid people (really obvious stupid people) on "the other side."
They have said, effectively, that it's both easier and more fun to rip on liberals right now. Therefore that's what they're doing.
Hence the term, " South Park Conservative." Of which I am one.
Ribald, offensive, mad, bad, and dangerous to know.
Oh yeah, and, I love Opie and Anthony too.

Their interview on charlie rose was actually pretty good, because they explained how they act at hollywood parties.
Trey said he told one woman "I like GWB and I love my gun" and he could just see her head starting to explode.

It is a shame they aren't "inseason" right now, or with Cindy Sheehan's recent exploits she would definitely get hers. The sad thing is all they would have to do is animate the things she has actually done.
I'm sure they respect Dubya's authoritie!
Cindy does not deserve her own SP episode. As Cartman would say, she's like so totally lame.
Hah! I remember Opie and Anthony when they were in Boston a long time ago. Good stuff. Much better than Stern.
That would be a good one (Cindy Sheehan). One of my favorite social commentary episodes was the metrosexual/queer eye for the straight guy (or whatever) when all the boys are all primped up with their hair products and cool clothes. They get their dads all hyped out about shopping and getting facials. Tooooo funny.
That's one of my favorite episodes.
The true beauty, in my eyes, in having the boys rendered in japanimation was that that is really how little boys see themselves when acting a role.
I was never the grubby six year old when playing cowboy, I was the steely-eyed, lantern jawed, sinewy Marshal.
