I saw it and didn't care for it but I wouldn't rank the episode very highly anyway. I'll see what they do next week.
Didn't Steve pull out the barb anyway?
What's really funny about this protest is that, in the show, everybody is upset that "someone" dressed up like Steve Irwin so soon after his death.
Even Satan himself says it's inappropriate for someone to make fun of Irwin's death, and calls the "person" out to protest about his insensitivity for making fun of Irwin.
Then the "person" says "But I'm really Steve Irwin".
Then Satan says "oh, you aren't wearing a costume", and has him thrown out of the party.
If that was really Steve Irwin, wouldn't he be drinking a Fosters instead of a Coors? That was the Aussies should really be mad about.
Fine, then show the image of Mohammed in the SP episode where you demanded it removed.
I actually considered this for a Halloween costume, but I couldn't figure out where I'd get a rubber stingray, and my wife would have murdered me anyway.
Was Steve some sort of saint?
Did I miss the High Mass in his honor?
Sheesh - this from the country that gave us Benny Hill...
Classic - "sorry then, no costume, you gotta go"
I wonder if they saw the other SP episode featuring Steve?
Hey that is what South Park does. No one should be shocked. How many years is the show on the air?
LOL

Wasn't he in a Los Angeles hotel? I know, same thing to some people, but it appears the writer didn't actually watch the episode he's reporting on.
If someone told Irwin he'd be killed by a sting ray he'd probably have laughed. He may have even thought that this South Park was funny. I'm pretty sure that Irwin would wonder why South Park put Paul Hogan's hat on his head.
Steve Irwin had an worldwide outpouring of sympathy...kind of like fellow party goes Princess Di. I almost think Matt and Trey had the idea (Satan giving himself a Halloween Sweet Sixteen) and then just 'plugged' in the more current stuff (like Irwin and even the Catholic Bishops) at the last re-write. I was suprised not to see Paris Hilton there (but then again she is sooo last year).
My favorite...Hitler as the Verizon Guy 'Can you hear me now?'
Hitler? A celebrity?
So, when is South Park sensitive??
(Yes, I did laugh at that part - guess I'm just "grossly insensitive" too)
