Watch this episode... I'm SUPER SERIAL!! hide show
This episode is a fave of mine. Why? Two words... Al Gore. In this episode Al Gore comes to South Park to speak to the children about a dangerous creature lurking in the hills around town, Manbearpig. "Half man, half bear, and half pig." Al Gore is on a mission to kill Manbearpig and takes the children to some underground caves, he believes it's living in. After shooting up the caves, a cave in occurs and the boys are trapped inside. Cartman gets sick and the boys have to be rescued quick or take their chances and try to find a way out. This episode is filled with classic, repeatable quotes (mostly thanks to Al Gore's character), that made me laugh out loud. If you haven't seen it, watch it as soon as you can... I'm SUPER SERIAL!
Stan, Kyle, Cartman and Kenny find themsleves helping Al Gore search for 'ManBearPig', in this reasonable episode... hide show
This isn't really a series classic, but I found it watchable and enjoyable in what so far has been a shakey season.
The dailogue flows much better and is funnier than much of the season's offerings up until this point.
We get classic Cartman as he discovers the 'treasure' and plans to keep it all for himself.
[spoiler] It might come as a slight surprise that the real ManBearPig doesn't make an appearance, making a contrast to Skuzzlebutt the early, first season episode 'Volcano'. [end of spoiler]
All-in-all, not quite a classic episode, but quite a good one, with some funny moments.
Manbearpig is the greatest threat ever to South Park and the world, I am super cereal. Or so says Al Gore at least. The former Vice President enlists the help of the boys to try to catch this foul beast, but is it even real? hide show
I can not believe some of the poor ratings people gave this episode. I am a big fan of it and it has good replay value. Every time Al Gore says Excelsior or I'm cereal I die laughing, it never gets old. It had a decent plot and lots and lots of great sound bits, all in all making it a very good episode of South Park. A good friend of mine was pretty high up in the Al Gore presidential campaign and after everything she told me about him I just get an extra kick out of this episode every time. It might be a silly episode, but I highly recommend it!
This episode was okay but nothing great, Al Gore not having friends being a joke that should have been used once rather than repetitive times and Cartman eating the treasure also got a bit boring.
Manbearpig being another creation of Al Gore's insane mind is a pretty funny plot but is a bit overused, much like a lot of the episode. However, there are some very funny moments such as remembering the four miscellaneous kids and Cartman freaking Kyle out by staring at him while he's asleep.
This is the third season ten episode aired in Australia and the episodes haven't been very impressive so far but all the same, South Park is still funny.
