Worth remembering that Matt and Trey were initially trying to make something that no TV studio would ever want to broadcast...this video just amplifies the punchline which is the fact that South Park is now a long running show with a massive following.

[@davizera5015]

A fun fact is that in this pilot, Kenny's VA is the same as Cartman's

[@froggosouls3558]

According to IMDB, Cartman (along with other characters) is voiced by Trey Parker. Kenny (along with other characters) is voiced by Matt Stone in the unaired pilot and most of the series until he was unhooded in South Park: Bigger, Longer, and Uncut and was voiced by Mike Judge (Hank Hill, Beavis, Butthead, various other characters) and in later seasons (again without his hood) Eric "Butters" Stough, who Butters in the show is loosely based on but not voiced by. Funnily enough Trey Parker voiced the cows in the unaired pilot and in the air episode. So the Cow's VA is the as Cartman's.
