Critics' reviews

"Laughs, laughs, and more laughs (...) It's very rare when a television season is almost perfect, but this first season of 'South Park' comes pretty damn close"

Jeremy Conrad: IGN
"'South Park' is a witless offering that wants to score as it seeks to be pointedly outrageous and aggressively offensive but clocks in as merely dumb"

Miles Beller: The Hollywood Reporter
"It’s very crude, and maybe the best thing you can say about the pilot is that there’s a perfect match between form and content."

Phil Dyess-Nugent: AV Club
"As animation, it's substandard, primitive dreck; as comedy, however, it's gloriously subversive art."

Ray Richmond: Variety
"Beneath the rough edges, however, are some knowingly clever observations about childhood and popular culture"

Brian Lowry: Los Angeles Times
"It might help if the 'South Park' kids had personalities, but they’re as one-dimensional as the show’s cut-and-paste animation"

Bruce Fretts: Entertainment Weekly
