South Park episodes that use minimal pop culture, hot topics or celeb references True but Quintuplets really showed the start of really current events (at the time) mentioned on the show.
South Park episodes that use minimal pop culture, hot topics or celeb references
South Park episodes that use minimal pop culture, hot topics or celeb references Since it's beginning with Cartman's Silly hate Crime 2000. (2nd episode of Season 4) Although South Park began to change after the movie. which would be after Sexual Harassment Panda. (Season 3)
South Park episodes that use minimal pop culture, hot topics or celeb references I would also count "Butters Bottom B*tch" as that only had a minor refrence to the Acorn Hotel incident from last year in like one scene. The rest was majorly just about prositution which isn't really a new issue at all. And the subplot (about officer Yates dressing up as a whore and having sex with men and then arresting them afterward) a gag Matt and Trey wanted to do for years but never got the chance to until then. That's probably the only episode since season 12's "Breast Cancer Show Ever" and "Super Fun Time" to have an epiosde majorly dedicated to something outside of celeberties, pop culture and specific hot topics of the time of that epsiode's production. You can't count stuff Like "200" since a big part of that was ABOUT celeberties.
South Park episodes that use minimal pop culture, hot topics or celeb references Yes but not current pop culture references i.e. current when the episode first aired. Awesome-o is a parody of ASIMO which was big in '04 and although it was an excellent episode (like all of season 8) it had a lot of Adam Sandler references in it. Imaginationland was going to be the 2nd SP movie but M&T decided to make it a 3-parter and i quite enjoyed that episode. But pandemic part 2 sucked. With the episode Quintuplets.

South Park episodes that use minimal pop culture, hot topics or celeb references Most of Season 1 and 2. and Season 3. The Pop culture/Social Propaganda began heavily on Season 4.
South Park episodes that use minimal pop culture, hot topics or celeb references Wasn't Imaginatinland nominated for an Emmy? Which ever episodes won Emmy's (I believe 2) were pretty original in their own right.

South Park episodes that use minimal pop culture, hot topics or celeb references I hadn't seen "Fat Camp" in years until I saw it last night. It's just Cartman at a fat camp and Kenny doing disgusting things for money. That's it. It's not trying to be a parody of anything specific, it's not taking one joke and draining it dry for a half hour, it's not taking something minor and turning it into something insane and dramatic and it's not a whole episode of Trey Parker attacking something he doesn't like. And it works, even after all this time. The humor is in what the characters say and do, not "haha take that Jersey Shore". The funny thing is that it wasn't so bad when South Park used to do this stuff, because it was timely and they used to space it out among "kids being kids" type episodes. But it seems like now this is all they do. And the sad part is that the internet and the spread of communication is so insanely fast that South Park is usually late to the party even when they're doing something topical. Yeah, Jersey Shore is stupid. Thanks, that's been pretty well established. Cutting and pasting afro's list and adding a few others...these are some of the very best South Park episodes... Casa Bonita Pre-School Quest for Ratings Cartman's Incredible Gift The Losing Edge The Death of Eric Cartman Marjorine Ginger Kids Free Willzyx The List Scott Tenorman Must Die Asspen Professor Chaos Raisins Awesome-o What do they have in common? They're original stories and just take the kids and allow their personalities to play off each other. These episodes do more than think they can parody something recent in the belief that people are going to drop to their knees and praise the show for tackling something topical. And Imagination Land in no way, shape or form should have been three episodes. That's just lazy. Once you get past the "I wow I know that character" response you get very little aside from old episode references and an awful Kyle vs Cartman story that was dragged out for three weeks. But as bad as that was Pandemic was even worse.
South Park episodes that use minimal pop culture, hot topics or celeb references Isn't "Imagination Land" all about pop culture references? XD;
South Park episodes that use minimal pop culture, hot topics or celeb references Yes that too, I started from season 8 since most of the old eps. didnt focus on pop culture that much.
