Video of the Day: Close Encounters of the South Park Kind
We'll be talking a bit more about last night's South Park episode a little later on, but before we go there, you should definitely check out the above clip. Well, if you didn't see the episode, you might not want to watch -- but if you did see the episode or don't care much about South Park spoilers, then do click on the little play button up top. It's shiny. It likes you.
This season, the boys from SP seem to be doing a lot with the internet, and last night's episode was no exception. When the internet goes down in South Park, the town doesn't know how to handle it. Chaos and hilarity ensues. Easily my favorite episode from this season so far, toward the end we also got a nice, hysterical homage to Steven Spielberg's Close Encounters of the Third Kind -- except, instead of aliens, the government was trying to communicate with a giant internet router thingy. Classic.
My favorite line from last night (which I've been repeating, to myself, all day long for some odd reason): "We're headin' out Californee way -- rumor has it they may have some internet out there."

Last nights episode was so classic! The whole subplot with Mr. Marsh was hilarious, especially when he was finally able to get back online. Brilliant.

Why is the Cinematical review of a SoutPark episode so much better then the garbage written on TV Squad?

And the Grapes of Wrath-spoof made me laugh even harder, especially the black and white scene was well done. I was half-expecting some woman offering a tit to suck for the router thingy :P
