Christmas Time in South Park
Just in time for Christmas or perhaps just in time to ruin Christmas for
some,
Paramount have released a great collection of South Park episodes that
revolve
around this joyful and merry time of the year.
Featuring 7 Christmas
episodes from
Season 1 to Season 8 which features greats such as Mr. Hanky or the
dangerously and
politically incorrect Woodland Critter Christmas, this collection
definitely had me
in stitches and as the series progressed, it was great to see how
creators Trey
Parker and Matt Stone continued to push the boundaries.
For the purists, Christmas Time in South Park involved the following
episodes;
Mr. Hankey The Christmas Poo (Season 1, 1997)
Merry Christmas Charlie Manson (Season 2, 1998)
Mr. Hankey's Christmas Classics (Season 3, 1999)
A Very Crappy Christmas (Season 4, 2000)
Red Sleigh Down (Season 6, 2002)
It's Christmas in Canada (Season 7, 2003)
Woodland Critter Christmas (Season 8, 2004)
The video quality is nothing special but the images are sharp and colour
palette is impressive. Add in strong black levels and as the series
progresses,
so does the video quality. The sound is quite acceptable but don't
expect those
Hollywood blockbuster movies. Unfortunately there are no special
features in this
collection which is a shame.
With 7 diverse and hilariously entertaining episodes, it's easy to see
how South
Park is so popular and best of all, it continued to make waves with what
those
politically incorrect naysayers believe should never be included in a
comedy
series or more specifically a cartoon series.
Featuring escaped
convicts, Santa,
Jesus, Mr. Hanky the Christmas poo who leaves skid marks when he travels
or those
strange looking Canadians, it's great to sit down, especially in this
crazy season
called Christmas and relax, enjoy and laugh out loud with friends and
families.
