Storyline
One unique aspect of this season is the absence of Kenny McCormick, who died "permanently" in the episode "Kenny Dies" of the previous season. Several episodes of this season deal with Stan, Kyle, and Cartman attempting to fill the void of Kenny's absence with a new fourth friend, initially hiring Butters, whom they subject to guilt, inferiority to Kenny, and various forms of abuse, before deciding he was too lame, leading them to hold a "Bachelor"-like contest in order to choose their new fourth friend in the episode Professor Chaos, resulting in Tweek becoming Kenny's replacement until the episode "Child Abduction is Not Funny". The episodes "A Ladder to Heaven", "The Return of the Fellowship of the Ring to the Two Towers", and "The Biggest Douche in the Universe" form a mini-arc involving Kenny's soul being trapped in Cartman's body after Cartman drinks Kenny's ashes, thinking it is chocolate milk mix. Kenny spontaneously returned alive at the end the Season Six finale, "Red Sleigh Down".
