Main article: List of Episodes

Season Two of South Park first aired on April 1, 1998 and later concluded on January 20, 1999.

According to a promo used on Comedy Central in around May 1998, Ike's Wee Wee was initially the Season premiere but official sources later on changed the Season premiere to Terrance and Phillip in Not Without My Anus.

In this season, Cartman discovers his dad is his mom, Kyle finds out his brother Ike is from Canada and Mr. Garrison replaces Mr. Hat with a new puppet called Mr. Twig. This season began with some controversy when it aired "Terrance and Phillip in Not Without My Anus" instead of the conclusion to "Cartman's Mom is a Dirty Slut". This season also has the most episodes up to date, with eighteen episodes.

This is the first season of the show, and only from the first twenty-two, for which Trey Parker and Matt Stone have never recorded commentaries, possibly due to the commentaries from the previous set being edited and released only as a separate disc. While discussing this fact in the Season Three commentaries that suggest that they considered this season to be poor.

The show's ratings reached a significant peak in the second season at an unmatched 5.5 million viewers for the season premiere. Trey and Matt have attributed this to the media hype that surrounded the show, feeling the 3.4 million viewers that the third season onward averaged was more representative of the show's "true" fan base.[1]
