[edit] Michael Jackson

Can someone cite a source where it says that this Michael Jackson comment was cut? It seems more to me that the "cut" was intentional by Matt and Trey (ie: Michael Jackson was never mention, but implied,) similar to "cutting" in a later episode where Mr Garrison says "Well at least we got rid of all them damn n-". The cut is an implication, rather than an actual cut. Orichalcon 11:39, 2 May 2006 (UTC)

Yeah, I don't think he ever said Michael Jackson, it was just widely assumed that he said this since the cut is so abrupt and it's such an easy conection for people to make. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 69.254.145.54 (talk • contribs) 21:57, 6 September 2006 (UTC).
Actually, I once saw an airing about half a year or so ago where the announcer did say the whole thing, which included a mention of Micheal Jackson. Unfortunately I wasn't able to record it, but I do distinctly remember seeing that on TV. On my Season One DVD though, the line is cut. X-pert74 00:07, 15 October 2006 (UTC)
You're wrong. It's NEVER said "Michael Jackson". Orichalcon is correct, The whole joke is that the implication is strong enough and the name doesn't need to be said. I recall being a member of a South Park mailing list running in late 1997 and upon one of the first reruns of the episode, the topic of this "cut" came up. Many users chimed in to confirm that it was missing in the very first airing. The only reference for the cut Michael Jackson comment comes from user-submitted and non-referenced sources such as Wikipedia and TV.com. 203.217.32.251 23:29, 10 December 2006 (UTC)
No, I'm not wrong. I specifically remember hearing Michael Jackson's name being mentioned in one of the reruns. Once it reruns again, I'll check again for confirmation. X-pert74 20:34, 2 April 2007 (UTC)
It's odd that everyone "remembers" it yet there's not one shred of proof. Not a sound grab. Not a video clip. Everyone's heard it, but no one has an old VHS tape of it? No one with an old RealMedia clip (as they used to be pirated in back in 1997?) Not a single WAV or MP3 clip? It's nothing but an urban legend. People "remember" it because of the blatant Michael Jackson implication...WHICH WAS THE JOKE. The abrupt cut makes them presume it was censorship. Just because you "remember" it doesn't mean it happened -- you'll find people that claim "Episode IV" was onscreen when they saw Star Wars in 1977 even though it wasn't added until 1980. You'll find people claiming that "Hannibal" was more gruesome theatrically.
If you want to check for confirmation, do so. But until their IS confirmation it shouldn't be on Wikipedia. 203.217.42.157 03:04, 9 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Does John Stamos have a brother?

Does John Stamos have a brother? That article says no, this article says yes. Inconsistency abounds. --Fire Star 火星 01:07, 16 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Final Score

Winning a game 76-3 does not cover the 70-point spread. 64.199.42.122 19:00, 9 May 2007 (UTC)

  • The end score was 73-6, which does. Mac OS X 17:04, 21 August 2007 (UTC)
    • I thought 6 plus 70 is 76 which is greater than 73 thus the spread wasn't beat? Benjiboi 22:01, 18 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] White Token Trivia

The trivia section lists two Butters's and one white Token, however if you look closely you can see the top of another white Token's head near the center of the top row. Mac OS X 17:04, 21 August 2007 (UTC)
