Steve Jobs was the Former CEO of Apple Inc. He died on October 5, 2011. He has made two appearances on South Park.
Background
He first appeared as one of the select rich and famous people Mr. Garrison invites to view IT in the Season 5 episode "The Entity".
Jobs later appeared and played a major role in Season 15's "HUMANCENTiPAD". Still striving to "create the future" by spearheading technological innovation, Jobs directs the creation of a new electronic appliance, the HUMANCENTiPAD, which consists of three people surgically joined together, mouth to anus.
Because people were already able to share all their videos, music, photos and shit, Jobs reasoned that the only thing left for the iPad to do was walk and read. He hoped to achieve this with his new project. Using a Japanese man, Kyle Broflovski and an unnamed woman as test subjects, Jobs attempts to get the HUMANCENTiPAD to read terms and conditions before accepting. After a string of abject failures, he is eventually successful.
He then plans to present the HUMANCENTiPAD to Eric Cartman as a gift, however, Gerald Broflovski persuades him to sit down and enjoy the present before attempting to create the future. Jobs concedes, agreeing to get Kyle separated from the HUMANCENTiPAD, understanding that through his work he has already left his mark on the world by "connecting" people everywhere.
Now deceased in real life, it is not known whether or not he will re-appear on South Park.
Appearance
In "The Entity", he appears with dark brown hair and wearing a brown suit and black shirt. He appears visibly aged by "HUMANCENTiPAD" with balding grey hair, but dressed his trademark black shirt and blue jeans attire.
Trivia
- Although "HUMANCENTiPAD" aired five months before Steve Jobs' real life death, the documentary 6 Days to Air: The Making of 'South Park', which focused mainly on the making of the episode, aired less than a week after his death.
