South Park - Saison 14 Review
The big moment is here... and brace for disappointment. Not in the brilliant writing of Trey Parker and Matt Stone, this season is HILARIOUS.What's not hilarious however, is that this DVD IN FACT has the CENSORED VERSION ONLY of Episode "201", the infamous (I'd better be careful here...) M******* episode. If you didn't know, episode "201" was censored heavily on its original broadcast on Comedy Central due to receiving terrorist threats from wannabe terrorists WHO LIVE IN THE UNITED STATES (remember, the land of free speech?). These guys are complete fugazi terrorists, no danger at all, just wannabes. In fact, all that this "terrorist" group does is make racist and bigoted cartoons and skits of their own (MUCH more offensive than South Park, check it out on the net... I won't provide the link, b/c the cartoons and skits are AWFUL, and I don't think Amazon lets you print links anyhow.) The DVD version of the episode is proceeded by a message that says, "This episode appears exactly as it did on Comedy Central's original broadcast." Oh, how my heart sank. Not only is it censored, but you can't even get any insight into the censored closing statements, because if you listen to the commentary from Trey and Matt, they have been SCARED by Comedy Central into not even talking about the controversy (Trey admits it on the commentary), due to the fact that they would "probably just take it off anyways," Trey says. That's really what the commentary track consists of: Trey and Matt talking about how they can't talk about the censorship. The only good part of the commentary is the great joke the guys pull at the end of it... I don't want to spoil it for anyone though, because I thought it was a great satiric jab at the situation.
Trey Parker and Matt Stone are absolute geniuses and deserved to be hailed as comedic heroes for tackling tough and important issues, all the while making them funny as heck. I love every episode, and OH how I wanted to see what is said in those censored closing statements in episode "201". But, there is no insight provided whatsoever, other than the original statement that was posted by the guys on their website the day after the show aired, censored. It is clear from this statement that Matt and Trey had absolutely nothing to do with the censorship, but I think we're all smart enough to figure that out. If the DVD was going to be censored, not only would some advance warning have been nice (before I spent $35 on this), but I wanted MORE of an explanation, AT LEAST, if I can't EVER find out what is being said in this highly controversial episode due to Comedy Central's lack of guts. In short, nothing about the DVD release of "201" is satisfying on any level.
Also, I feel it should be noted that the special features are not that great. The commentary tracks are cool (ya know, for the most part), but other than that you get 6 minutes of deleted scenes, and half of those are not fully animated. They are still in still-frame sketch form with the voices overlapping. They did include a bonus episode from Season 13, "The Coon", on the same disc as the new "Coon" trilogy, but that's all you get.
I abhor myself for rating a South Park product this poorly, and if you haven't seen the season, by all means, check it out because it's absolutely hilarious; one of the best seasons in a while. If you are on the fence about buying it due to the censorship, I would actually suggest that you not buy it. All the episodes are available to watch for free on South Park's home page (except for "200" and "201", which are only available on the DVD, with "201" censored [no changes from the original broadcast.]). Don't give Comedy Central a bunch of money for being scared rabbits and treating the audience like children. MAKE NO MISTAKE, THIS IS COMEDY CENTRAL'S FAULT. While Matt and Trey can keep their heads up due to doing nothing wrong, COMEDY CENTRAL SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF THEMSELVES! For shame!
Very disappointed. I will still support South Park, but no other programs on Comedy Central. This is unacceptable. 4.5 stars for the season, 0 stars for the release = 2.25 stars, round down to 2. Terrible man, just terribly disappointing.
