Cartoon Wars 2 Reaction (Season 10 Episode 4)

[@toditron]

Comedy Central did, in fact, censor this episode to not allow Mohammed to be viewed. Trey Parker and Matt Stone wrote the South Park episode called "201" (Season 14, episode 6) to address this problem. You should definitely watch that episode soon since it fits in so well with this theme.

[@fraisertinko]

Can't blame them,peaceful followers of this peacefull religion could have killed somebody

[@sheepishbaton0399]

I'm pretty sure the only problem is that the only way you can watch is through pirating cause they pulled it

[@MusicalSavior23]

Writers for The Simpsons actually sent Matt and Trey flowers after this aired lol

[@Ben-lo3op]

no before this aired. Thats why they included Bart as a thanks

[@vukkumsp]

I think Family Guy created a new genre of comedy with Cutaway Scenes. That is still comedy just not a satire like South Park does. Even Simpsons became worse overtime.

[@Johncenasuncle]

@@vukkumsp”a new genre” of comedy having random flashbacks make up most of the episode that don’t make sense or go along with the plot lol

[@fieryphoenix586]

King of the Hill writers considered this episode as "doing God's work."

[@EpicFableBean]

jesus christ its amazing how much of a pussy they were about it. Just cause a another show eclipsed theirs in popularity

[@ColesLab]

Little fact about the intro, they did that sort of making fun of themselves for something they did back in season 1 I believe. They had a cliffhanger episode and on April fools day they aired a Terrence and Phillip episode instead of the anticipated conclusion fans we’re waiting for. The fans got pretty mad at that episode 😂

[@FiveAcross]

We did indeed :D

[@TheBengalDragon]

Seth McFarlin, when asked about the feud with South Park, said that he knows that's a battle he can't win, so he's avoiding it... something along those lines. And... I heard that this episode was a response to Family guy getting an award over south park.

[@guitarwins1896]

Yea that part when they censored Muhammad was legit. I believe that the creators of South park knew he would be censored but they still wanted to make these 2 episodes to prove a point to all TV channels as well as comedy central who employs South park. I also believe they were clearly trying to prove a point to all of us as well. Facts. Feel free to prove me wrong guys. Love all your reactions bro! So glad that you did these 2.episodes and in the same day! Keep doin what you do!

[@Sam-Sung.]

True

[@MathGPT]

This episode is also a meta commentary on how the show is actually produced. They do everything in under 6 days, start to finish, and near the end they're always fighting with Standards and Practices over what they can and cant get away with, and generally only have a final copy until just hours before airing

[@mowgli8480]

That whole discussion with Kyle, Cartman and the president of fox, was a rendition of Matt and Treys talk with the bosses at Comedy Central, except they pussed out. Which they then pointed out afterwards.

[@victore8342]

I love the meta commentary in these episodes It's especially dope if you know your South Park history, and episodes Super Best Friends, 200, and 201

[@zeallust8542]

The whole censoring Muhammad thing happened to South Park, the entire T&P bit at the beginning is accurate meta commentary about their own show.

[@Tomekkplk]

Wtf is meta commentary

[@zeallust8542]

@@Tomekkplk Meta meaning about self, commentary meaning commenting on something. Basically, a self aware statement about their own show. South Park uses T&P to do that a lot.

[@officialbrdillin]

Mona Marshall played Bart in this Episode. She's the voice of Kyle's Mom and Butters' Mom.

[@6TomCruz6]

It's funny because Muhammad was already shown in an older episode of South Park Super Best friend where all the religious figure fought David Blaine. South Park have a list of banned episodes

[@Keiyon95]

Funny thing is supposedly in 200 when Stan recaps how he once saw Mohammed and everything was fine; that was meta commentary on how Comedy Central reacted when Trey and Matt mentioned how they once used an image of Mohammed in S5E3

[@Cure_Hana]

Fun fact: When first creating South Park, Matt and Trey actually wanted Bart’s VA, Nancy Cartwright, to voice the female characters on the show; but she ultimately turned them down because the humor was too raunchy, even for her.

[@fynnthefox9078]

Like the Simpsons is never raunchy?

[@Cure_Hana]

@@fynnthefox9078 The Simpsons were considered very risqué for their time because there was no other show like it back then. Not even ten years later, South Park would take those controversies and crank them up to eleven.

[@treyowen9213]

What a wimp.

[@patrickn8355]

Funny coming from a Scientologist 😂

[@NP44449]

As a diehard fan of both family guy and south park, this was interesting to say the least. While it's not accurate to say that family guy is completely random with NO plot line or thought in how they poke fun of society, i will always love how South Park gets their point across. I think my fav moment was how they mocked Family's Guys "chicken fights" with the lame Kyle-Cartman fight 🤣

[@JEFFwasHERE...]

My favorite thing South Park has ever done is the Imaginationland Trilogy

[@Spatzz-12]

FACTS. Easily one of the best things they’ve made. So funny, and so many references.

[@Nitro2393]

One of my favorites as well! I even won an entire official script of that trilogy signed by the creators themselves! Was so excited!

[@marcraider]

you are right it was dope!

[@MathGPT]

Yeah but Imaginationland is like the South Park final boss, you gotta do it last

[@guitarwins1896]

@Jeff Mattina Yea he definitely has to react to those 3 episodes! And they are mainly based around Butters which he'll surely love!

[@TnT_F0X]

yes legit, they censored episode 200 and 201 too, despite not showing muh hummus at all... luckily the uncensored version is available so you can hear Kyle's gay speech.

[@SnowyWolborg]

The thing with Cartman's manipulations is that, more often than not, he is telling a bunch of lies to people who are unbelievably gullible. The story he told the board members could have been disproved with a Google search, but they just took it at face value.

[@adelardj7026]

This is the reason why I don't watch people reacting to south park compilations. It makes no sense to watch them if you don't know whole episodes. Jokes in South Park need context. They are not like family guy :P

[@fannuv_12]

7:20 this scene hits different in spanish dub. In Spain both Kyle and Bart have del same voice actress, Sara Vivas

[@_Uptilt]

I got done watching part 1 the same minute this popped into my feed. Perfect timing brah!

[@meowecat]

Comedy Central censoring it is so ironic and misses the point of the entire episode

[@MoonlightBelladonna]

Gotta love how South Park pokes fun at itself at times.

[@TheRDTV1993]

14:18 Have you noticed Scrat from Cold-ehm Ice Age right there? 😂😂

[@nhd6128]

Cartman has stamina 😂 how did he last that long in a scrap

[@FiveAcross]

The beginning of this was actually a throwback. There was a part one... at the end of season 1... which left us with a cliffhanger. Season 2 starts and.... no part two. Instead we got Terrence and Philip "Not Without My Anus". Then they did part two the following week. **Edit: Left out what the part 1 episode was about, in case you end up looking in to it**

[@basin7117]

Perfect satire. Yes it was/is a thing. Check the current events during the period the episode was released...

[@Yzmajhar]

Super Best Friends Cartoon Wars 200 & 201 ... the best of long term story.

[@KingIce86]

They also showed a part of the episode in the opening intro of this episode

[@jipsumies3435]

Bart sure has his moments but atleast he has violent drunk dad who controls him sometimes. Bart is not an asshole to Milhouse like Cartman to Butters

[@FirstName]

Using this as context you need to see episodes 200 and 201. Just do a little search before so you understand how they created the almost same situation. Love your content Watching from Brazil

[@elephantmarch]

I think the idea with the closing joke is, if the Muslim terrorists were being reasonable, THAT would be how they would retaliate to a cartoon that offends them, but making their OWN offensive cartoon making fun of America. The correct response to comedy that offends you is the make comedy that offends the offender, if you have the more valid point then you'll be funnier

[@crisgriffin3042]

The vast majority will always act out of anger first, then, maaaaybe, will think it through and reflect on anything. Even people with second doctorate, because they also need to be taught godlike patience and the "art of offending" itself(like when you can make the baddest 4chan troll cry like a baby without using a single curse, etc).

[@MathGPT]

The creators of The Simpsons sent Matt and Trey flowers after this episode; for some reason every animated show hates Seth McFarland

[@freyzerb.castro9124]

The creators of South Park censored the scene with Muhammad after Comedy Central told them that they were going to censore it so they decided to just do it themselves, or at least that's what I read online

[@MomockDamock]

Comedy Central did "puss out" in the end, LOL You should watch the episodes 200 and 201 after that, to stay into the same theme of Muhammad censorship (there is an uncensored version). But before you'll have to watch the redheads episode (Ginger kids, S9 E11) and more importantly the scientology episode (Trapped in the closet, S9 E12) to understand why Tom Cruise is so pissed at South Park.

[@alexanderson8507]

And Cartmans Mum Is A Dirty Slut/Is Still A Dirty Slut must be viewed before them too.

[@robertfalk3767]

The season 14 two part episodes, 200 and 201 is even more interesting than this one, and I love this one.

[@wadeintonature2975]

The lady who voices Bart was offered a job for south park she didn't take it.

[@GuySmithSmoke]

Kyle is 100% right. They have taken down and censored a ton of old episodes and cartoons

[@Keiyon95]

Crazy thing is I remember until not long after the 200 201 fiasco; we were able to watch S53 and the Cartoon Wars on South Park Studios

[@jarredbillings2332]

[@MacTechG4]

[@lifewhims4155]

My man has gotta check out ‘The Snuke’ lol 😂

[@FeRnAnDo1538]

I can remember this episode was a huge issue in its days. And I’m just realized this: Cartman said his father died on a Muslim attack when he was working on a newspaper. Well, do you remember Charlie Hebdo magazine?

[@CPUGaming]

Yes Comedy Central actually did block it

[@matt755]

bro, you missed the poster in the background at 14:10 mark. XD

Comedy Central legit censored South Park irl. This was a response to that. The ending was proof that you can insult sacred American & Christian symbols but not Muhammad.

This episode is less about Family Guy and more about South Park and Comedy Central. They shit on Family Guy with the random jokes but they also take the piss out of themselves, implying that South Park is "preachy and up it's own ass with messages."

[@slashermaster28]

It's kinda funny, Matt and Trey have made it no mystery that they hate FG for its over-reliance on random gags. However, I have to give them credit for at least acknowledging the show's popularity and trying to understand why it's as popular as it is. Compare this to every single time FG has referenced Bob's Burgers just to take potshots at it for being more popular than it while denying that it's actually had plenty of good jokes in the past, it's just less edgy and more subtle than most adult cartoons.

[@b3rz3rk3r9]

To explain The "Muhammed" thing, the Islamic religion is heavily Iconoclastic, meaning they do not allow depictions of their prophets, which includes all Abrahamic prophets; with Muhammed being the most Haram of them all to depict. Depicting Muhammed is considered punishable by Death, or usually has a Fatwa called against you. And Matt and Trey back in 2001 depicted Muhammed in the episode "Super Best Friends." Not negatively, mind you, he was actually pretty helpful in defeating David Blaine; no, the problem begins and ends with "They made Muhammed." This got death threats sent to Comedy Central HQ, so they decided to try censoring any and all (5) depictions of Muhammed; hence why he's depicted with a big black censor bar. That didn't work, so they pulled all 5 episodes from ever available legal source where he's front and center. Those being "Super Best Friends" "Cartoon Wars 1 & 2" And "200 and 201" They're pulled from syndication, streaming, DVD releases; everything. And all because they drew Muhammed.
