    In this episode, the world wonders what life would be like, without- gasp!- The INTERNET! Randy and the Marsh family will do whatever it takes to get some internet, even a little, and Kyle thinks he has found the solution to the problem. Has he? Will there ever be internet again?

    Good episode. Pretty funny. The scene of Randy sneaking in to use the internet was nasty (watch and you'll know why), but the rest was great. Stan's sister meeting her online boyfriend was funny, and the whole episode is pretty true- people DO Rely on the internet too much. Kind of a dumb message to not use it as much, but I still thought this episode was great. A+ definitelymoreless

    Loved the concept of the episode. South Park has the amazing ability to take the extremes of our society and then exaggerate them. It made me rethink how often I am on the internet, and what my life would be without it.

    The plot line seemed like a combination of recycled South Park episodes. Movie references from the 80's and 90's (which didn't work in this episode), dumb government officials, Kyle saving the day with a simple solution, and of course the message at the end.

    As far as humor goes, this episode was a little below average in South Park terms. I liked Randy's line about Playboy not being the same after you see Japanese girls puking into each others mouth. Shelly hitting Stan when he tried to comfort her is also hilarious. That was about it. I didn't find Randy having fun with himself with porn at the end funny. Too disgusting for my taste.

    The most meaningful part is when Shelly met her boyfriend in person, and they had no clue how to communicate with each other. It was more fun living the dream relationship compared to the real one.moreless

    in this episode the internet is freakin' gone. I just thought that they use up all the internet in there house. Then they go to Kyle's house and the internet is gone too then they go to Starbucks. They never had internet at Starbucks. If i can't use the internet home I go to Apple or this Mall i know that you can use the internet. Then Randy plans a trip to california but they only get 40 seconds of internet I don't know what I can do in 40 seconds. Then Randy complians so he can Jack off what a butthole. Then he gets a lot of seamen on him and some how Kyle fixs the thing and got the internet back.moreless

    No doubt, Randy is now an established fan favorite and this episode is another example how hilarious the chracter can be. Season 12 have had some ups and downs so far..this episode is among the ups. Love the Wikipedia and Amazon reference...the funniest part of the episode was no doubt the artificial/Sketched poRn...Randy was priceless. And his preferences, with the Japanese, elephants and all..LMAO. The scene where Randy got what he want was superb..."it was a ghost!" hilarious stuff.
    Internet was re-established a silly way...well that`s south park.
    Overall it was a great Randy episode..not a Randy classic tho. Had some boring moments with the camps on the road to California. One thing the episode was missing was Cartman, which was surprising. Still, the best episode of the season so far.moreless

    • When Stan and Shelly get their tickets, Stan's is 851 and Shelly's is 923 (before she swaps hers with Stan's). However, when the Red Cross worker says that there will be no more internet that day, you see both Stan and Shelly holding tickets that begin with an 8, when originally, only Stan's ticket had an 8 in it. Edit
    • Kyle says he has to log on before school. The next shot shows "Monday 8 days later." 8 days before is a Sunday Edit
    • In the Red Cross camp everyone gets 40 Seconds of internet time. Yet, if all servers across America were down, which we are led to believe the wouldn't be able to log on anywhere. In the show you see someone logging on to amazon which is impossible since the amazon host is not located in Silicon Valley. Edit

    • Volunteer: Yeah sign up over there and use your time when they call your name. Each family gets 40 seconds of Internet per day. Randy: Forty seconds? That ain't even long enough to check Wikipedia! Volunteer: Well it's all we got, so we gotta make do. Refugee Man: Look, honey, we ordered us some books on Amazon. Volunteer: All right, time's up. Refugee Man: No! No wait! I haven't entered the shipping information! No! Edit
    • Gerald: Randy, where will you go? Randy: We're gonna head west. There's a rumor goin' around there might be some Internet out there. So we're headed out Californee Way. Gerald: You don't know if there's any Internet in California. Randy: Well there certainly ain't none here! Look, maybe it's time you all face reality! The Internet here is dried up! Steven: It could come back. Randy: Yeah, and maybe it won't! In the meantime I got a family who needs the Internet right away. We'll head out Californee Way and ... see what we can find. Edit
    • Randy: Gerald. Please help us. Gerald: Randy. What happened? Randy: Our house... it has no Internet. Sheila: Oh my God. Edit

  • Allusions

    ADD ALLUSIONS
    • Ghostbusters: When Randy explains all the semen he's covered in he says it's ectoplasm and there was a scary ghost. This is a reference to the 80's movie Ghostbusters. Edit
    • Hairspray: When the reporter announces that Kyle will try to fix the problem, different TVs in the world are shown. One of them appears to be Times Square. You can see half of a "Hairspray" billboard in that scene. Edit
    • 30 Days of Night: The shot of empty streets with the subtitle "8 days without internet" was an allusion to the 2007 vampire movie 30 Days of Night. In that the main characters were afraid to leave their home for fear of being attacked and it had the same shot of empty streets with a similar "8 days later" subtitle. Edit
