(Which was used for him instead of his Normal actor providing the crying noise) when he sobs after he realized he finished eating his fudgsicle before Eric hits him with a stick after he told him to shut up.

Block 13[]

Block 13 (Arabic: قطعة 13) is a Kuwait-Arabic animated series, which serves as the Arabic adaptation of the popular American animated series, South Park. It was created by Sami Al-Khars and premiered on Kuwait TV on November 27, 2000, and ended on December 5, 2002 after only 3 seasons and 45 episodes. It is the first animated TV series to produced in the Gulf region, and the show is still broadcast on Kuwait TV to this day, usually during the period of Ramadan [1].

The series follows Hammoud, Azzouz, Saloom, Abboud and his sister Farooha, who all often go on wacky and strange misadventures. Similar to how South Park was in the United States, the series dealt with many issues that concerned the Kuwaiti population in a smooth and humorous way but avoided talking about potentially offensive subjects such as sexuality or political issues, however unlike the original show, which was adult-oriented, this show is meant for families and children of all ages.

Diary of a Wimpy Alien[]

In the episode with Pennywise and Michael Myers, the guys make a quote similar to the boys.

Drawn Together[]

"A Tale of Two Cows" (Season 2 Episode 10) - A live-action cow is killing a lot of people in towns. The main characters go into the town of South Park, and everyone is dead, while Kenny (ironically) is the only one alive. Ms. Choksondik has a penis in her mouth. There is a censored version where the penis is covered by a black box.
"The Drawn Together Movie: The Movie" (Finale Special): Drawn Together gets canceled and replaced by The Suck My Taint Show (a parody of South Park), which is an adult cartoon that is just as vulgar as Drawn Together, but supposedly more artistically valid because every episode has a "point" (when in reality, it's just random vulgar humor, shock humor, sexual humor, gross-out humor, and toilet humor with a pretentiously preachy political soapbox message sloppily attached at the end). The Suck My Taint Girl (A.K.A. Sara) herself is a parody of Cartman and is one of the movie's main antagonists. The Suck My Taint Show itself insults the writing-style and audience of South Park in particular, by accusing South Park for being pretentiously preachy and pretentiously unfunny, and always using Trey Parker & Matt Stone's personal beliefs as a cheap excuse to show tons of vulgar humor, shock humor, sexual humor, gross-out humor, and toilet humor. More generally, The Suck My Taint Show can also be interpreted as a jab at any work that dares to use messages in order to justify vulgar material and make it seem more artistically valid. To make more of a jab at South Park, Sara's personality, actions, and manipulation allude to that of Eric Cartman (with her trademark catchphrase "Suck My Taint!" being a reference to one of Eric Cartman's many catchphrases "Suck My Balls!"). And to make even more of a jab at South Park, Seth Macfarlane was featured as a guest voice actor for I.S.R.A.E.L. (Intelligent Smart Robot Animation Eraser Lady) as payback for "Cartoon Wars Part I"/"Cartoon Wars Part II". More so, the relationship shared between Sara and Scott (the Network Head) may allude to the rumors of Comedy Central redirecting funding and cancelling shows in favor of milking South Park. More references to South Park include:
- Sara using the phrase "They don't take too kindly to...", which was a running gag in "Sexual Harassment Panda".
- Sara always saying "Don't you see?..." before making a point, which is a reference to one of Stan & Kyle's many catchphrases "You know, I learned something today!...".
- A photo of Mr. Kitty in Sara's dressing room.
- The entire population of Make-A-Point Land (which is a reference to Imaginationland) consisting of human forms of comedy (who are all drawn in South Park's art-style) who always express very gruesome and offensive forms of comedy, but get away with it by making it satirical and projecting a political point of view through their jokes.
- The 2-headed Mother Teresa crab being a reference to South Park's numerous episodes making fun of religion ("Mr. Hankey, the Christmas Poo", "Damien", "Ike's Wee Wee", "Spontaneous Combustion", "Jewbilee", "Starvin' Marvin in Space", "Are You There God? It's Me, Jesus", "Do the Handicapped Go to Hell?"/"Probably", "Super Best Friends", "Cartmanland", "Red Hot Catholic Love", "A Ladder to Heaven"/"The Biggest Douche in the Universe", "Christian Rock Hard", "All About Mormons", "The Passion of the Jew", "Woodland Critter Christmas", "Best Friends Forever", "Trapped in the Closet", "Bloody Mary", "The Return of Chef", "Hell on Earth 2006", "Go God Go"/"Go God Go XII", "Cartman Sucks", "Fantastic Easter Special", "The Ring"), and possibly also being a reference to Crab People.
