South Park Season 15

It seems that unless they are in the news for being controversial, Trey Parker and Matt Stone never really get too much attention for their weekly animated series. And they’re probably fine with that because they can do what they want, which is helm one of the greatest TV shows ever made. Each episode is a comedy gold mine, particularly if you’ve been following the adventures of Cartman, Kenny, Kyle and Stan for the past 15 years. Sitting down and watching these episodes for a second (or 11th) time, you get a chance to really appreciate just how smart and insightful – not to mention scathing – the stories are: social commentary has never been so funny, or so sharp. The extras included in the disc, particularly the documentary of the South Park team putting together an episode, are terrific.
