South Park: The Complete Sixth Season

---

“They’re uncontrollable,
  they’re incorrigible and
  they’re... cunning.
  But they’re also cute and
  hilarious — South Park’s
  little guys are out in force
  as South Park: The
  Complete Sixth Season
  comes to DVD for the
  first time...”

OUTRAGEOUS, IRREVERENT AND CONTROVERSIAL — and no way suitable for eight-year-olds! With the warning that the programme is recommended for mature audiences only and contains adult language and situations, South Park: The Complete Sixth Season comes to DVD for the first time, featuring all 17 classic episodes in an exclusive three-disc collector's edition. Stan, Kyle and Cartman — and the hapless Butters — roll out line after line in their own naïve style. No eight-year-old should behave like this!

The simultaneous re-releases of South Park: The Complete Seasons
3 & 4 brings the boys back with three more seasons of the sometimes vulgar, sometimes uncomfortable — but always hilarious — award-winning series from Paramount Home Entertainment.

South Park: The Complete Sixth Season is packed with great episodes. "It's only in America somebody can become famous just because they go from a big fat ass to not being a big fat ass," says Stan when Jared Fogle claims he lost weight through eating Subway sandwiches… and getting Aides: "When it comes to fitness, Subway goes hand-in-hand with Aides" — one of many misunderstandings! Butters is volunteered to do the same for Chinese food and ends up submitting himself to do-it-yourself liposuction!

Butters' parents arrange a group visit to a new Timeshare complex in Aspen but while the boys learn to ski, the parents find all roads lead to timeshare salesmen. Stan tackles the dangerous peak K13. If he wins he saves the youth centre, gets the girl and frees Native American spirits in a nod to the movies of the Eighties.

In Freak Strike, the boys see that disfigured people get prizes for appearing on the Maury Povich Show and put Butters forward with a rather alarming growth on his chin. And Cartman takes his mother to
a talk show called Please Help My Out Of Control Child.

Butters seeks revenge by becoming Professor Chaos in The Simpsons Already Did It. Each time he comes up with a plan, it turns out that The Simpsons did it! In another episode, the boys try to save calves from the slaughterhouse and end up demanding, through an FBI hostage negotiator, that Star Trek's Michael Dorn, dressed as Worf, should drive them to freedom in a truck.

Stan, Kyle and Cartman win all the candy they want in A Ladder To Heaven. But there's a problem — Kenny had the winning ticket. The boys plan to build a ladder to Heaven to get it. America is charmed that they miss Kenny, Japan tries to emulate the ladder, country singer Alan Jackson exploits it for all it is worth and the US military becomes involved, threatening to bomb Heaven for having weapons of mass destruction. Then Cartman swallows Kenny's ashes and begins to have strange 'Kenny' experiences.

Asked to take a video tape to Butters' parents Stan, Kyle and Cartman see it as a mission in the brilliant The Return of the Fellowship of the Ring to the Two Towers. When it turns out to be a porno film instead of Lord Of The Rings, Butters becomes obsessed with 'his precious' and older kids become the Dark Riders. The Biggest Douche In The Universe continues Kenny's possession of Cartman. He is taken to see John Edward and to Scotland, where Chef's mother is a voodoo priestess.

Other episodes include Fighting Round The World with Russell Crowe and his tugboat Tugger. The boys audition for a friend to replace Kenny and believe in the Sea People (known in the UK as Sea Monkeys) because of the fantasy illustration on the box. The boys forgo The Catholic Cruise, face the Mongolian hordes over The Great Wall of South Park, confront their older selves and try to stop Steven Spiel-berg and George Lucas from re-releasing more movies with digitally-enhanced effects.

South Park: The Complete Fourth Season opens with The Tooth Fairies TATS 2000. Cartman gets $2 from the tooth fairy and the boys come up with a scheme to get the new Sega videogame system. When the plan fails, they decide to steal a rich kid's tooth fairy money — but go against a mob that has the tooth trade cornered. Season 4 also features the classic episode Fat Camp when Cartman is sent to fat camp and "he" returns an amazing 40lbs lighter. In Cartman Joins NAMBLA he wants to associate with more mature men, so turns to the internet to find men who want to be his "friend" and is forced to turn to an organisation specialising in the loving of little boys. Trey Parker wrote and directed this hugely popular cult television show that features the voice of Isaac Hayes as Chef.

South Park: The Complete Third Season features Spontaneous Combustion, where Kenny spontaneously combusts and Randy is appointed to find the causes of the combustions. In Chinpokomon, the boys get their parents to buy them everything Chinpokomon — including a new videogame that has begun brainwashing them into bombing Pearl Harbour. When the government seems incapable of doing anything about it, the parents must come up with a solution to save their children and their country. A classic series from the early days of South Park, this is one not to be missed.

This is another brilliant DVD you will want to add to your South Park collection. Love 'em or hate 'em — you can't stop 'em!
