Pinkeye

Allot of people here seem to really like 'pinkeye' but to be honest, it doesn't get a very high score from me as far as south park episodes go.

but there's a couple halloween episodes that i barely enjoy at all; the 'tegridy halloween special', and my least favorite; 'sons a witches'. they both have similar problems; randy being randy, a somewhat generic random monster terrorizing the town trope, and trey dumping his uninteresting marital issues into the episode (which he seems to do allot of). the more times i watch the heidi/cartman arc, the more annoying it becomes, and butters' mummy isn't that much better.

Here with have really cool zombie Pip with Pinkeye! And Pip with Damien. Nice drawings by @Alumi0nix

Today's the 23th Anniversary of Pinkeye! a Classic Halloween SP episode, While i'm watching the episode, i'll post drawings The Boys in their Costumes from That Episode (in Order: Zombie Kenny, Raggedy Stan and Wendy, Vampire Kyle and Ghost Cartman) Please Enjoy :3

Happy (Early) Halloween!

Hey everybody!

Since Halloween is this Saturday, I was thinking about Halloween episodes in South Park. "Pinkeye" and "Hell on Earth 2006" are some of my favorite Halloween episodes and I think it would be interesting to have another Halloween episode this year, especially since I think that last year's "Tegridy Farms Halloween Special" was pretty lame. Just some good-old Trick-or-Treating, maybe a Halloween party or two, really anything to do with kids having a good Halloween.

I think one of the reasons why I liked "Pinkeye" was because many of the events at South Park Elementary were things I associate with my childhood Halloween experiences, like showing off your sweet costume, having a Halloween party with all my friends, only to go Trick-or-Treating with my brother or friends until we couldn't hold anymore candy!

What would you like to see in a future Halloween episode?

These are just my opinions on the Halloween specials, ranked worst to best. Feel free to share your own ranking! Also, I haven't seen The Scoots or Tegridy Farms Halloween Special so I've left them off the list.

6. Sons a Witches

This one was just kind of boring to me. I get the joke, about witch hunts and all, but it didn't particularly stand out to me. Also, it really frustrated me that Cartman never talked to Heidi about what was bothering him. Being upset about her taking a long time to get ready is not bad thing, but bottling up his emotions and instead trying to get her kidnapped by a witch is obviously very wrong. I just don't care about Cartman being a bad person at this point. It's not funny to me anymore.

5. A Nightmare on Face Time

This episode actually got a few laughs out of me, particularly the scenes where Cartman's costume kept getting mistaken and everyone treating Stan's iPad as though it were a real living being. Basically any time the kids were on screen, I was enjoying myself. However, the scenes with Randy at the Blockbuster were so excruciatingly unfunny that it really dragged the whole episode down. I suppose I found Shelly burning the store down kind of amusing, but other than that I just couldn't care less. Randy isn't an entertaining character to me. Moving on.

4. Hell on Earth 2006

Now here's a Halloween episode I can get behind. I love South Park's depiction of Satan; in fact, I can't think of a single appearance of his that I haven't enjoyed. Butters and Biggie Smalls were also pretty great. This episode wasn't perfect, but there was nothing about it that I strongly disliked.

3. Pinkeye

This episode is truly iconic, and a solid start to South Park's holiday specials. My favorite part was probably Cartman showing up to school dressed as Hitler (and subsequently being turned into a "spooky ghost,") and I absolutely love Chef's parody of Thriller. What else can I say? It's classic South Park. The few problems I have with it are just problems with the early seasons in general, for example the pacing leaves a bit to be desired, but all in all it's a great episode.

2. Korn's Groovy Pirate Ghost Mystery

This episode is a lot of fun, and the more original and interesting story is what puts it above Pinkeye for me. I love that everyone though Korn was satanic and evil when they actually ended up being a wholesome parody of Scooby Doo. (Also the fact that the real members of Korn did the voices is just... so great.) And if I'm being honest, I'm guilty of acting a little bit like Cartman by getting excited for Christmas in October, though at least he has the decency to wait for Halloween.

1.Spookyfish

I'm sure it's someone of an unpopular choice for the number one spot, but this episode just really works with my sense of humor. It's arguably the most original Halloween episode, with little to no references to pop culture or social issues aside from Barbara Streisand's Spookyvision (which I found hilarious.) One scene that always stuck out to me was the "God, I hate you, Kenny." His hatred was just so unadulterated and pure, I love it. And who could forget Evil Cartman's friendship song? (Well, I'm sure a lot of people forgot it, but I didn't!) This is both my favorite Halloween and season 2 episode. It's just one of those episodes that really stuck with me even though I've nearly finished the series.
