Episode Summary

The show starts off with the build up from last season's cliffhanger revolving around Cartman's paternal origins. However, just as it seems they are about to get on with the second half of "Cartman's Mom Is A Dirty Slut," they do a 180 degree turn-around and reveal that for April Fool's Day they will be showing Terrance & Phillip in "Not Without My Anus."moreless

    Terrance & Phillip in "Not Without My Anus" is so very funny. I can see why people might hate it, its not south park for one and then there is the having to wait for the Cartman's father conclusion. But if you filter away the frustration you may have as Not Without My Anus starts you will be in for a treat. The episode plays very well with Terrance and Phillip being delightfully dim-witted. The story is larger then any that south park had played with before and we get the first appearance of Saddam Hussein. Not Without My Anus is the first departure episode for South Park and is pulled of thanks to some great jokes.moreless

  • I could not get into this episode.

    When first finding out this episode was a prank, I knew I wasn't going to like watching the episode. Hardly anyone I know enjoy's this episode. In polls by Comedy Central, this episode an also 'Pip' was not included. The main reson why is that the episode is not even linked (I mean in character) in anyway to South Park. The same is for 'A Million Little Fibers' Even the network did not like the episode. That is why they had to make 'Cartman's Mum Is Still A Dirty Slut' so quickly. So in conclusion, avoid this and the others of it's kind.moreless

    I understood this episode; it was a prank by the writers. I get that. Everyone was all excited to see who was Cartman's father and instead they show this unrelated episode. I get it. It's just it bored me. A lot. None of it was interesting, and the only laugh I got was when one of them said "So find him innocent, or he'll kill you." And that itself was not even that funny. Like I said, I get the fact that this was a joke, and I can certainly handle a joke. It's just that this episode, as a whole, did not make me laugh and the whole episode bored me. Terrance and Philip try to stop Saddam from taking over Canada. I don't know. Not my cup of tea. Easily one of the worst episodes of the series, for me anyway.moreless

  • Frustrating but this right here is simply one of the most under rated South Park episode...ever.

    I remember the first time I was this episode, I was so pissed off and frustrated. The whole april fool stuff really got on my nerves and I hated the episode. But now after re- watch, I can say that this episode is hugely under rated, it`s funny, it`s actually hilarious.
    Finally, I think the April fool joke is a genius strike of Matt Stone and Trey Parker. Terrence and Phillip are so funny in this episode. I laughed out so loud at almost every of their scenes. Even the plot with Celin Dion, Sadam, Scott etc...is great. I can`t believe I did not like this in the first place. I think everybody who did not like it should give it a second try. I`m sure Matt and Trey never regretted this one, and they are right!moreless

  • a pretty lame episode of south park.

    to sum this episode up in one word-STUPID!!!. this episode is a 20-min adventure with terrance and phillip. the plot goes like this, teerance and phillip are accused of murder by a guy called scott but the jury find terrance innocent. Then saddam hussain contacts scott and says if he smuggles him into canada he'll dispose of scott. Scott tells T & P that terrances daughter has been kidnapped and is in iran. they get the kid and on the flight back saddam is on it. he doesnt kill T & P and invasdes canada turning it into his own country so T & P have to save the day. the plot is quite good i guess but the comedy is just fart jokes and whilst its funny on a 1 minute clip in south park they don't deserve a full episode.moreless

  • Notes

    ADD NOTES
    • The first episode that Mary Kay Bergman and Isaac Hayes don't voice over in. Isaac Hayes becomes a semi occasional performer after this. Edit
    • This is a complete 30 minute Terrance and Phillip episode as a result, Kenny does not appear in this episode. Cartman makes a brief appearance at the beginning and Kyle and Stan can be seen on T.V. very briefly while Terrance and Phillip are watching it. This also marks the first episode where Kenny does not show up. Edit
    • In an April Fool's joke, we were treated to this episode of Terrance and Phillip instead of resolution to the "who is Cartman's father question" that was on everyone's mind. Edit

Phillip: 'Cause you're a dick? Scott: No! Because I hate you! You guys think that fart jokes are so funny, but they're not! In fact, I wish you were both dead and had cancer! Phillip: Cancer??

    • The Canadian Football League: The Canadian football game we see is between the Ottawa Rough Riders and the a made up team named "Vancouver Roughriders". This is a parody of the Canadian Football League having two teams called the Roughriders until 1996. The Ottawa Rough Riders did not exist when this episode first aired because they disbanded in 1996. Edit
    • Not Without My Daughter: The title of this episode is a parody of the 1991 film Not Without My Daughter. Edit
    • Richard Nixon: During Terrance's murder trial, Phillip says, "My client, Terrance, is no more a murderer than you or me. He loves puppies and hates mean things." This is an allusion to Nixon's 1952 speech where he was asked to explain the $18,000 from supporters that he consumed for personal use. Instead of explaining his actions, he talked about his love for his dog, Checkers. Edit
