Preview Tom’s Rhinoplasty Aired: February 11, 1998 The surprise last week of finding an episode I’d never seen before was exciting. I’m pretty sure I am going to experience that again. I have almost no memory of this episode outside of knowing that we are going to see David Hasselhoff’s face. I look forward toContinue reading “1.11 Tom’s Rhinoplasty”

Preview Damien Aired: February 4, 1998 Like most episodes in season 1, I remember very little specifically about the episode. I do remember the Damien character from South Park Rally and he was underwhelming at best. I think this may be the episode where they use Jesus as a character more than a quick cameo.Continue reading “1.10 Damien”

Preview Mr. Hankey, the Christmas Poo Aired: December 17, 1997 I’ll go ahead and say it, Mr. Hankey is a South Park legend. The majority of my Mr. Hankey memories come from the musical episode that comes up in a few seasons. While I know I have seen this episode a few times, I’m strugglingContinue reading “1.9 Mr. Hankey, the Christmas Poo”

Preview Starvin’ Marvin Aired: November 19, 1997 While I don’t remember much about this specific episode, Starvin’ Marvin is one of my favorite characters in the South Park universe. We will discuss that more in a season or two when we get to Starvin’ Marvin in Space. The episode hits on another fairly serious topicContinue reading “1.8 Starvin’ Marvin”

Preview Pinkeye Aired: October 29, 1997 I feel like a broken record, but I don’t remember much of this episode either. I do know this is the equivalent of a Halloween episode since it was released only days before. I also remember there being some mention of Scott Baio giving one of the boys PinkeyeContinue reading “1.7 Pinkeye”

Preview Death Aired: September 17, 1997 Yet another episode that doesn’t stand out as memorable 23 years later. I know Stan’s grandpa is an important part of the episode. I don’t have much of a memory of his importance as a character besides he can’t remember Stan’s name and he wants to die. So inContinue reading “1.6 Death”

Preview An Elephant Makes Love to a Pig Aired: September 10, 1997 This is getting to the point where I can’t remember if I have seen these episodes before or not. The fact that I can’t remember tells me two things. 1. Some episodes slipped through the cracks over the years. 2. Some episodes weren’tContinue reading “1.5 An Elephant Makes Love to a Pig”

Preview Big Gay Al’s Big Gay Boat Ride Aired: September 3, 1997 As you’d expect, It’s been years since I’ve seen this episode. I remember the basics of it but very few moments stick out in my memory. I feel like Big Gay Al was potentially a controversial character back in September of 1997 butContinue reading “1.4 Big Gay Al’s Big Gay Boat Ride”

Preview Weight Gain 4000 Aired: August 27, 1997 In my prep for the last couple episodes I’ve struggled to figure out which episode is truly the third episode. Numerous places online claim that Weight Gain 4000 is the second episode of season 1. On Hulu, and a few other places, Volcano is listed as theContinue reading “1.3 Weight Gain 4000”

Preview Volcano Aired: August 20, 1997 This episode holds a special place in my heart. Volcano is the first episode of South Park I ever saw. Even though I wasn’t sitting down watching it intently, I remember where I was, who I was with, and watching it on a tiny damn TV. I also knowContinue reading “1.2 Volcano”
