Kind of sucks seasons are now down to 10 episodes a year, but maybe we'll get another holiday ep.

Any idea on when we can expect a release date on Stick of Truth? I'm a little concerned we've heard so little aside from a new E3 trailer a few months ago.

Really? I feel like there's been very little buzz about it both online and what I've seen IRL. Even this thread seems to be going a bit slower than in the past.

Good news to hear, all the same.

That scene where an exasperated Randy explained how frustrated his sex life had become as he played Minecraft hit too close to home for me. :smith:

Maybe we just need to watch more murder porn. But then... I'd have to go back an resubscribe to cable.

No kids, afaik, so his family in the episode is made up to mirror the WWZ family in Cartman's dream.

Yeah, the "family" was entirely made up. In reality, he's going through a rather public and messy divorce. Still, he manages to find time to get pulled over for various traffic violations on a weekly basis. I guess it keeps him busy.

Episode's best moment: Thom Yorke saying the word "supple."

It was all a Punk'd/Candid Camera show.

Is this the first episode to feature none of Stan, Kyle, Kenny & Cartman other than in cameo roles?

And holy poo poo, next week looks great.

Everybody forgot the original: Not Without My Anus, per say.

Is the Centurion Package single payer? I'm not sure how this analogy was supposed to play out.

I think they're just saying that instead of using computers to sign up for health insurance (and fail), go to a health insurance office and sign up using pen and paper. Or something. Kind of a weird luddite vibe, particularly at the end.

Just saw that the official South Park Facebook posted this:

No break this week for Thanksgiving

That's because Thanksgiving is next week. :ssh:

I missed the superfast, squished down credits at the end. Was that actually Emilia Clarke narrating the beginning of the episode, or did they just find a woman who sounds exactly like her?

GRRM in South Park
"His wiener gently hangs down between his legs. Soft and flaccid, his wiener glistened in the golden sunlight."

GRRM in Game of Thrones
"He was dripping wet from the neck down, steaming in the chill air. His body was covered with brown hair, thick as a pelt. Between his legs, his manhood swung long and heavy."

"His manhood glistened wetly."

"And suddenly his cock was out, jutting upward from his breeches like a fat pink mast."

"Even his manhood was ugly, thick and veined, with a bulbous purple head."

"His cock was as hard as an iron bar.

"She was much hairier than his sister. Absurdly, he felt his cock stir beneath the bathwater."

"He could feel his manhood beginning to stiffen."

"His legs were pale and skinny, and his manhood flopped about obscenely as he chased after his horse."

Gotta give him credit for creating memorable (weiner) exposition. I know every scene each of those quotes come from.

So what are the odds Randy is going to stay with the security guards instead of running into the store for his original plan, 50/50? 40/60?

I think it's pretty much established he's taking his security job 100% seriously after not-Jeor Mormont gave him ~~Longclaw~~ Eyescar.

Most likely they just took this week off for Thanksgiving, which is why the newest episode won't be released/completed until after this Thanksgiving week.

Most likely nothing, they said all along that they'd be taking this week off.

I met people at GenCon this year who'd read the books but hadn't figured it out. I couldn't bring myself to just tell 'em

Yeah, I was talking with some family recently who had read the books and none of them connected the dots. My sister came closest by hypothesizing Jon's parents were King Robert and Lyanna.

And yes it is a loving spoiler for people who haven't figured it out (doubly so for show watchers, where even fewer clues have been dropped), which is why I went so far as to spoiler the above incorrect theory. LividLiquid has every right to live up to his name right now.

The whole uncensored episode is now out and about in the land of :filez:

Looking in that reddit thread, it sounds like someone also has the uncensored HD version of Super Best Friends too.

Ugh. I was really interested in this game, and just got a new juiced up computer after having a 10 year old piece of crap. Do you think they'll release patches to fix this stuff? The deleted save issue is what really bugs me.

There'll probably be some patches down the road. In my personal experience so far (360) I've had few issues. Just some minor stuttering here and there when autosave kicks in. No erased saves between myself and my wife, but we've been playing the game on our own Xbox Live accounts.

I just had my first game freeze. Whew, for a minute there I almost forgot I was playing an Obsidian game. :allears:

2. Hulu Plus - HD episodes with few or no ads, all you want for $7.99 a month, on a month-to-month basis.

This has already been going on for some time. They've long had the full South Park episode catalogue (with one obvious exception) and I've recently noticed watching entire episodes where a single ad wouldn't play. It was kind of nice.

Sucks we're losing southparkstudios.com in the process though.

Now this I didn't realize. I was under the impression that the back catalog would remain on Hulu+. The 30 random episodes is a really dumb thing to do.

They'll all still be on Hulu+. It's the free regular Hulu that will only have a limited number of episodes.
