Bad Taste?

Cartoon South Park has waded into fresh controversy for joking about the death of Crocodile Hunter Steve Irwin.Hundreds of guests turn up at the party dressed as dead celebrities including Princess Diana, rapper Notorious B.I.G. and Hitler. But Satan receives complaints from his guests that someone is inappropriately dressed up as Steve Irwin.

But it seems South Park creators are not so sensitive.But it seems South Park creators are not so sensitive.

A spokesman said: 'South Park has been pushing people's buttons for more than ten years.

'It has offended people in the past and probably will again. Regular watchers would not be shocked.'

I laughed when I saw it because I couldn't believe they done it so soon, this episode also featured 2 priests with children on dog leashes

I kinda liked it in a way - it involved biggie and all other celebs...

It's like they say in one of the episodes "either everything is ok to make fun of or nothing is"

It's the way it should be IMO

Just found a screen grab on the net so everyone can see Steve

alexakasloth · 27 Oct 2006 at 11:33

At least he looks happy.

Long may it continue.

That's quite sick tbh.

Southpark is a peice of crap anyway, so are those gayers that make it.

Haha quality.

At a fancy-dress party I went to a few weeks ago there were a couple of Steve Irwins with sting-rays..!

The most amusing thing is that the episode is actually taking the mick out of the people that complain about inappropriate fancy dress...

Interestingly in the Metro it referenced the story about Catholic pressure groups forcing Comedy Central to pull a re-run of the 'Bloody Mary' episode...OMG Catholic threat to free speech it would appear!

lol, the stingray as well

Mr-White · 27 Oct 2006 at 11:38

Ha Ha Ha, South Park is one of the cleverest satirical cartoons there is. Newer episodes are brilliantly done and take a satirical look at lots of current affairs. The last episode with Cartman as Dog the Bounty Hunter, taking the mick out of Teacher Student relationships was genius.

I imagine you havent watched any recently, because most people with a brain and sense of humour find it all hillarious.

Irwin would be LHAO. I think he would be happy that the yanks knew who is was!

bledd · 27 Oct 2006 at 11:47

i like southpark, a lot of episodes are directed at people they have a gripe with, like the scientology ones and where chef dies, lol

they're kinda clutching onto anything they can get, the publicity is what they're surviving on now!
