South Park's 'Worst' episode is secretly great.

Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Although South Park season 2, episode 1, was one of the show’s most hated episodes upon its original release, there is a reason that the show’s creators still love the divisive outing. Since its inception, South Park has always pushed the boundaries of good taste and taken major creative risks.

Season 2, episode 1, “Terrance and Phillip in Not Without My Anus,” is a perfect riposte to reviewers who claimed South Park’s comedy consisted of nothing but fart jokes. This twenty-minute standalone adventure features none of the show’s regular cast members and instead focuses on the titular duo, Terrance and Philip. A pair of Canadian comedy performers, Terrance and Philip’s comedy consists of nothing more than them laughing at their own ill-timed flatulence.

In retrospect, “Terrance and Phillip in Not Without My Anus” isn’t as bad an episode as many viewers claimed. The outing works better as an audacious meta-gag than a story in its own right and, without any context, the episode does seem bizarrely aimless and repetitive. However, considering how tenacious a move this was by the show’s creators, it is tough not to be impressed by the episode’s commitment to absurdity upon a re-watch.

South Park’s Hated Episodes Fit A Common Pattern Most Of The Show’s Least Liked Episodes Don’t Center The Main Characters Close Although “Terrance and Phillip in Not Without My Anus” was a playful practical joke played on the show’s zealous fans, that is not the only reason the episode was hated. In subsequent seasons, a pattern emerged in most episodes of the series that proved particularly unpopular with viewers.
