Apparently based on what I've read on the net today many people were offended by last night's South Park episode...What else is new? After all isn't that the basic plotline of South Park anyways?

You know what I mean...

1) The Love Boat - Boy meets girl. Boy loses girl. Boy gets girl back again.

2) Fantasy Island - Boss..the plane the plane! Unhappy person comes to island with one fantasy leaves happier with a different dream.

3) Gilligan's Island - Something or someone new washes ashore offering hope of rescue - Gilligan screws it up. They must stay on the island.

4) The A-Team - Hopeless victims are victimized by powerful careless people - A Team shoots a lot of guns. No one dies. Bad guys give in. Army catches up to A-Team. A-Team flees.

5) Star Trek - Enterprise arrives at new planet,. Kirk beams down with security guards. Security guards are killed before first commercial break (never wear red if you're not Scotty). Kirk meets attractive female alien. Kirk scores with female alien. Spock and McCoy fight. Kirk resolves complicated social, moral or technical problem. Kirk leaves girl. Enterprise leaves orbit.

6) M*A*S*H - Choppers land bringing new wounded. Jokes are exchanged in surgery. Hawkeye puts the moves on the nurses. Wounded soldier has some social problem besides his wounds. Hawkeye and B.J. rail against problem while Burns and Houlihan are establishment stooges. Eventually problem is solved and the wounded are evacuated to 121st Evac Hospital.

7) Seinfeld - Seinfeld, George, Elaine and Kramer find bizarre new methods to try to get ahead in tiny little ways at the expense of each other and others around them.

8) Dukes of Hazzard - Boss Hogg does something to screw the Dukes. The Dukes drive fast and jump the General Lee across a ditch. Sheriff Coltrane's car wrecks in the ditch. Boss Hogg is caught red handed and makes things right with the Dukes.

9) Law and Order - Someone is murdered based on a recent real life news case. The details are translated into New York City locations and social situations. The cops suspect someone. When their original theory of the crime falls through they suspect someone else. They arrest that someone else. The D.A. offers a deal. The defendant refuses. There's a trial. The P.D. comes up with a bizarre theory of defense. It almost works. Another more lenient deal is offered and refused. The jury convicts the defendant. He gets 25 to life.

10) Friends: Ross wants Rachel. Rachel dates other guys. Ross and Rachel kiss. Ross and Rachel break up. Ross and Rachel date other people but want to get back together. Ross gets married. Ross gets divorced. Repeat as necessary.

11) MacGyver - MacGyver is trapped in an impossible life threatening situation - he builts unlikely device to escape using infeasible but available materials within arms reach in an impossibly short period of time. He escapes by closing credits. Repeat once per episode.

12) South Park - A recent news event is translated into an excuse to be offensive and insulting in bizarre surrealistic plots. Kenny Dies. Again. You Bastards! Famous people are belittled. Satan cheats with Saddam. Chef scores again. Cartman's mom is a ****. Taboo subjects and words are repeated hundreds of times in an obvious attempt to offend the audience and draw publicity. Offended people then complain on the internet. The end.
