Behold Guitar Queer-O!!
Antepenultimate SOUTH PARK!!

Instant Classic by Deathpool	Nov 7th, 2007 05:07:14 PM
That trilogy was fucking great, was it true that it was suppose to be a movie? Wonder why they decided against it. And hey, if the writer's strike goes on longer, maybe we can just have new South Park every week. That's something.
DVD Rights by xyzzy-xyzzy	Nov 7th, 2007 05:10:29 PM
Too bad any good headbanging music they will play won't be on the DVD due to licensing costs - the writers will have raped all of the profit margin already!
I wouldn't be shocked to hear some jabs at the WGA by El Scorcho	Nov 7th, 2007 05:20:29 PM
in either tonight's or in next week's season finale considering that the show is often (partially) re-written until the day before the show airs.
Strikebreakers? by jmyoung666	Nov 7th, 2007 05:22:09 PM
Or was all the writing likely completed last week. Which means we hopefully won't see a new episode next week unless the strike ends.
I smell the return of DVDA by radjac33	Nov 7th, 2007 05:27:12 PM
If they own it they dont charge
Are Matt & Trey even members of the WGA? by ElPaw	Nov 7th, 2007 05:29:58 PM
Weren't they just plucked out of relative obscurity by CC? As opposed to doing the more traditional pathway to being a Hollywood writer?
Awesome season so far... by JeffManSixtyFo	Nov 7th, 2007 05:30:45 PM
I hope there are WGA jokes.
Bet there is a HOMO/HOPO joke by Loosejerk	Nov 7th, 2007 05:32:42 PM
I don't even know what that means.
ElPaw... by Code6idiot	Nov 7th, 2007 05:50:15 PM
My guess is they finished the writing by sunday night, because I assume they'd be part of the WGA. They did 'Orgazmo' and 'Cannibal: The Musical' before SP. So, we might not have a new episode next week.
Aren't SP writers non-union? by blindambition238	Nov 7th, 2007 06:11:05 PM
Or at least thats what I heard
This season... by JonQuixote	Nov 7th, 2007 06:12:57 PM
...can't get on DVD fast enough. Has South Park ever been better? Answer below.
The answer... by JonQuixote	Nov 7th, 2007 06:13:47 PM
If you said 'no', give yourself a point. Scoring Guide: 0 points, you are dumb. 1 point, you are smart. 2 or more points, you suck at math.
Last season was much better by Paragon Complex	Nov 7th, 2007 06:43:15 PM
Sorry, but this one hasn't made me LOL once. Not saying I don't like it, but still.
I wonder if they by tme2nsb	Nov 7th, 2007 06:53:14 PM
Will mention GF/DM, you know, since MTV and Harmonix is licensing from Konami for their intellectual property.
HILARIOUS!!! by The+Hitman	Nov 7th, 2007 07:20:59 PM
That sounds fantastic and I wonder why nobody thought of it earlier. Gotta love South Park.
More Coke and Sex by Mixiboi	Nov 7th, 2007 09:09:38 PM
Yeah, Colorado is one weird place.
Assassin Creed bought all the commercial timeslots. by Mixiboi	Nov 7th, 2007 09:15:53 PM
Amazing Ubisoft has that kind of money.
Primus by EllisD	Nov 7th, 2007 09:16:34 PM
I'll bet there'll be some Primus being played. Also, I could stand to see some DVDA, "Now your a man!"
LMAO!!!!! The pink dragon is the best. by Mike_D	Nov 7th, 2007 09:20:29 PM
this is hilarious.
YOU ARE FAGS!!! by shmu65	Nov 7th, 2007 09:29:54 PM
Yes!
I always say this about the episode after I view it . . . by SkidMarkedUndies	Nov 7th, 2007 09:48:33 PM
BEST.EPISODE.EVER! But, that's about every episode.
Not the best ever, but still good. by postalpez	Nov 7th, 2007 09:59:12 PM
The best ever is "Scott Tenorman Must Die" side bar: watching Sarah Silverman tonight has me asking myself "has Bob Odenkirk done anything funny after Mr. Show?"
not their first trilogy by LarryTheCableGuy	Nov 7th, 2007 09:59:23 PM
first one was the meteor storm trrilogy, get your facts straight. now i'm gonna watch my tape of the new south park.
finally a good episode this season by mrgreentheplant	Nov 7th, 2007 10:39:31 PM
Tonight's was hilarious but the Imaginationland trilogy didn't really go anywhere for parts II or III after a hilarious part I. I kept waiting for some sort of punchline that never happened. This season has just been OK to me, though Randy Marsh crapping himself onto a mountain and Bono were pretty funny.
Heh, Jake Jabs reference. by RainJacket	Nov 7th, 2007 10:47:05 PM
I guess you'd have to live around Colorado to know who this dude is, but his horribly low-budget furniture store commercials have been burned into my memory, never to leave. Then he started adding in his whole damn family. The entire, hellish Jabs Clan and their Furniture Empire built on the souls of the innocent and the blood of all who crossed them. Fucking Jake Jabs. Once one of his pet lions mauls him to death, the torture he put me through will have been completely worth it.
Actual Best Episode by Mazzke	Nov 7th, 2007 10:50:15 PM
No, no. The actual best episode is the 2nd Christmas one, with the dradle song and sad Hitler. That one is still funny after a dozen viewings. That said, they have been in top form lately.
I guess its funny.... by Varakor	Nov 7th, 2007 11:34:37 PM
If you play Guitar hero. I've never played the game, so I didn't find this ep to be all that funny, but it had some moments. I loved the heroin game lol
Randy Randy by picardsucks	Nov 8th, 2007 12:00:08 AM
Heroin hero - another winner!!!!
Ass Ass In's Creed by thelordofhell	Nov 8th, 2007 12:39:46 AM
As if we need a video game to tell us Scott Stapp sucks.
So do Matt and Trey hate gamers? by Mixiboi	Nov 8th, 2007 12:49:53 AM
Or do they think they are too stuck up and need to poke fun at? Because that is what I got out of this episode and the Warcraft episode....Gamers are fat and can't really do real life activities?
Good ep except the ending blew! by captboulder	Nov 8th, 2007 01:11:15 AM
I like Stan and Kyle friendship and Randy rule over home and Peter anyday of the week! That ending with fag made Matt and Trey seem like some bitter bitches, IMO! I don't play GH but I think its a pretty cool!
good ep by tendermelon	Nov 8th, 2007 02:08:41 AM
I was actually laughing at South Park again. Those imaginationland eps were terrible.
We Aaaaaaall Diiiiiiiie Yooooouuuuuuuuung!!! by spud mcspud	Nov 8th, 2007 03:30:07 AM
There is only one ROCK STAR. His name is Mark Wahlberg. Haven't seen this ep, but it sounds awesome!
Downloading music has made record lables the new crack-whores by DigitalDong	Nov 8th, 2007 04:35:10 AM
Seems like nowadays you hear more and more good music being used for almost anything. Remember back in the day when some ad firm would pay millions to use a Beatles song? Or how only big budget movies got hit songs, and your nickle and dime movies got the bottem of the barrel. Ironically they had a coke party in this ep, which I'm sure the recording industry misses due to no one buying albums, they'd sell a license to anyone. Which ironically leads us to Guitar Hero one, two, and three. If Activision can pay for the rights, I'm sure Matt and Trey can. They got to use their budget for something.
btw, Where's the Family Guy talkback? by DigitalDong	Nov 8th, 2007 04:40:57 AM
I mean you get a clip show featuring the coolness of Seth, and then Stewie finally kills Louis. Not only that, but its to be continued!!! uh-oh, it would appear my sarcasm detector has gone through the roof.
Heroin Hero by JoeSixPack	Nov 8th, 2007 05:05:49 AM
Anyone want this game?
So, the title and the episode reference some video game? by JackPumpkinhead	Nov 8th, 2007 06:14:41 AM
Ah, now that's what makes South Park so timeless - the lack of idiotic pop references to 'current 5 minutes' topics.
Bionic Clydesdale by Series7	Nov 8th, 2007 07:30:12 AM
Man I started to watch that show last night waiting for South Park. Its really bad, I don't know why I bothered. Its sad when South Park and Chuck have more action then Bionic Women and Heroes. Also did anyone else watch the retarded video game sequence on Life? It started off interesting then there was this long embarssingly lame montage of people watching other people play Prince of Persia.
hate gamers? no... by spidercoz	Nov 8th, 2007 07:44:54 AM
the second or third season was delayed like 6 months because they were addicted to Goldeneye
Trey and matt are huge gamers by logicalnoise01	Nov 8th, 2007 08:16:53 AM
They nothing but video games in their offices while waiting to ok finished shots. Guitar hero gets played every day at the studio(just check out the production blogs from this season) by the majority of teh staff. They had a huge tournement there. The fag joke was just to be funny and point out that at the end of day we are indeed fags for feeling special about playing a videogame.
More videogames, more with the not funny by gruntybear	Nov 8th, 2007 08:17:01 AM
Are you sensing a pattern here? The show has sucked OUT LOUD since the "Cartoon Wars" debacle. Just end it already. Why, oh why, couldn't the writers strike affect this lame bullshit?
RE: Jack Pumpkinhead by Hunter-X	Nov 8th, 2007 08:41:20 AM
You've seriously never heard of Guitar Hero? Seriously?
Strangers With Candy by Purgatori	Nov 8th, 2007 09:26:19 AM
What is it with Kansas, that song, and Comedy Central. Cause Noblet rocked that hard core. Ah, Stephen Colbert in a mesh shirt and tight pants. I miss the good days.
Excellent episode... by jones1899	Nov 8th, 2007 09:48:18 AM
Stan's Dad playing GH for the first time was f'n great. Thad playing the songs (clicking buttons) at the cafe
Most excellent episode by tme2nsb	Nov 8th, 2007 09:51:17 AM
Although I hate Guitar Hero for blantant ripping off GuitarFreaks (and Konami, does license their intellectual property to Activision and MTV for Rock Band)--this episode was pretty cool.
at tme2nsb by logicalnoise01	Nov 8th, 2007 10:15:37 AM
blame konami for not realizing they could have two more frets and a working whammy bar. Konami waited too long and lost their oppritunity to break into teh US market. Then they release a craptacular US version of Beatmania. Konami dropped the ball not Harmonix.
'Sup? by Kid Z	Nov 8th, 2007 10:38:45 AM
...I quit... I quit, I quit, I quit!...
I loved it by Purgatori	Nov 8th, 2007 11:35:54 AM
because my husband has become "that guy" who has to play this thing CONSTANTLY. Guitar Hero 3 is in fact the Heroin Hero game. He's so addicted it's sick.

Hilarious episode...so true. by Sulla	Nov 8th, 2007 12:16:42 PM
I laughed my ass off. All these people "acting" like they are doing something cool are just posers who couldn't play a real guitar if their life depended on it. "Look at me! I'm rockin'!" No my friend, you're playing a video game. Real men play real guitars.
gruntybear, pull your head out of your ass by slone13	Nov 8th, 2007 12:23:39 PM
The show is a lot better when you watch it that way.
Serial by codefool	Nov 8th, 2007 12:46:42 PM
South Park is best watched while drinking cough syurp.
Matt Stone and Trey Parker by Series7	Nov 8th, 2007 01:09:36 PM
Need to make another live action movie. BASEketball was awesome. Between that and Halfed Baked, those have to be the best 2 comedies to have been released in my life time.
Really? by I am Batman	Nov 8th, 2007 01:12:46 PM
People pretend to be rock stars while holding a plastic guitar-shaped video controller during Kansas, Bon Jovi and Warrant songs? Isn't it bad enough that John Bon Jovi and the dudes in Kansas were allowed to pretend to be rock stars?
Jake Jabs and the Shane Diamond Guy by _Maltheus_	Nov 8th, 2007 01:16:12 PM
Given that I live in Colorado, I liked the whole "who's who" of Colorado celebrity. Jake even had a tiger with him. Priceless. It's funny though, I was in a store with a friend earlier that day and I asked him what's the deal with the dudes crowded around the guitar hero game. We ended up ripping on these guys as they were playing it cause it seemed so stupid. I mean, you can actually get paid for working on an assembly line, what the fuck is the point of doing it for fun?
BTW...for those that play it by Purgatori	Nov 8th, 2007 01:20:42 PM
Slither by Velvet Revolver was just released to download for the game.

The Meteor Shower thing isn't a trilogy... by DanielKurland	Nov 8th, 2007 03:41:58 PM
Sure, all three episodes happen at the same time, but they're entirely unrelated other than that. It's more of a "neat" thing, than anything else. It's not as if Kyle's actions at Jewbilee have some sort of repercussion on Cartman's adventures being babysat, whereas with Imaginationland, everything was connected. I've been very pleased with this season.
Sulla, GH gamers aren't poser because they can't play.. by captboulder	Nov 8th, 2007 03:46:41 PM
guitar IRL, they may be posers if they take it as real! First, that generalizing because MAYBE there some out there who CAN play guitar IRL and can play GH at the same time! Why would it be one or neither? Second, if GH is for "posers", than what do you make of players who like racing, shooters, flight, and sports games? Are they "posers" because maybe IRL they haven't joined the military or play sports? There are athletes who play sports games and military persons who plays shooters! And by your own words, only those with IRL credentials should be allowed to play such games or they would be "posers"? Thats BS and you know it!
Posers by thatdudewalter	Nov 8th, 2007 04:33:38 PM
One is only a poser if he believes that being an expert at Guitar Hero can really make him a God of Rock. If playing the damn game makes you happy, do it and piss on anyone who has a problem with it. They're just miserable saps whose cynicism has jaded them into a perpetual cycle of anger in which the only illusion of satisfaction comes with deriding the joy of others.
Randy saved this episode. by fiester	Nov 8th, 2007 04:48:55 PM
He is hilarious. But otherwise this was another infomercial for a video game product--but nowhere near as funny as the Warcraft episode.
i think by LarryTheCableGuy	Nov 8th, 2007 10:15:13 PM
they were just trying to get kids to do more than just play video games, maybe play real guitar and maybe become rich like they did by making movies and cartoons, instead of mastering some video game. i thought they called the meteorite trilogy a trilogy ion the min-commeteries, i could be wrong.
I liked this by buffywrestling	Nov 8th, 2007 11:34:53 PM
Perhaps even more so than Imaginationland, but then again I have a lot of friends who play guitar as I do myself (It's a Takamine), so I really appreciated the "acoustic" version of Guitar Hero. However, this episode also came off sort of fanfic-y. Kinda slashy (as is Matt & Trey's style). I thought Stan and Kyle were going to make-out but in the end they just labled them "fags" instead. issues i
One-Joke Episode by Bobo_Vision	Nov 9th, 2007 08:35:52 AM
This is the formula for many South Parks...you wait for the end to see the pay-off, and sometimes its worth it, sometimes, not so much.
the real message... by Doc_Hudson	Nov 9th, 2007 09:29:20 AM
Is that for what Guitar hero costs(with controller),....you buy an actual guitar and learn a real trade. That's what I got anyway,....damn this show has gotten better a parodies!
"Can Buy" by Doc_Hudson	Nov 9th, 2007 09:31:17 AM
PS:laptop keyboards suck,....that is all...:)
One joke episode? by queerfilmjunkie	Nov 9th, 2007 12:31:59 PM
Wednesday's episode was a lot more than one joke. They parodied a great deal of stuff, from rock movies to video game culture, to drugged out rock stars, to middle aged parents trying to be cool, to the lame music that we have all listened to and thought was cool. You can talk about Matt and Trey deriding the joy of others, but the truly joyless ones are the SP haters that don't get to enjoy the greatest animated show of all time.
As for live action by tme2nsb	Nov 10th, 2007 09:05:25 AM
I hope they stick to the animated stuff. I saw a lot of their live action stuff and it just didn't compare to South Park or evem Team America.

The Douche Bags at Fry's by queerfilmjunkie	Nov 12th, 2007 11:55:52 AM
Walking through my local Fry's electronics yesterday, I couldn't help but laugh at the two guys who were playing Guitar Queer-o. I certainly don't have a problem with anyone playing a game and enjoying it, but these guys were complete douche bags. There was only one guitar controller, so as one guy played, the other stood next to him and played Air Guitar Hero. The earnestness with which he mimicked the controller movements as he banged his head wildly (to Radar Love no less) had me in hysterics.
