...flat-out comedies, movement means the rapid flapping of a wise mouth. Cartman and his smartass school chums will try talking their way back into the pop zeitgeist with the feature cartoon South Park: Bigger, Longer and Uncut. In Mickey Blue Eyes, Brit blueblood Hugh Grant plans to marry into a Mafia family and has to pass himself off as a Brooklyn gangster. Detroit Rock City, set in 1978, is about four guys trying to bluff their way into a KISS concert. It may remind you of I Wanna Hold Your Hand, made in 1978, about a bunch of kids...

...Thursday night at Kyle's House, and some ghostly creep with a blue face and wild white hair has come between a clan v.p. and a cute blond. The PuNK pOsSe group is hanging out on South Park Avenue; the No Limit guys are at Cartman's House. A naked Def Squad girl cruises Avatar Ranch. An anonymous admirer makes flowers bloom at the feet of Pink Glove in Wendy's Backyard.

...show concerns four friends--Stan, Kyle, Cartman and Kenny--who live in the small town of South Park, Colo. Obsessed by bodily functions, sometimes cruel but with a core of innocence, Kyle and Stan are modeled on Parker and Stone, while Cartman, the greedy fat kid, is a deranged fantasy figure and Kenny, who talks in meaningless muffled squeaks, dies violently in each episode (except the Christmas one). Kyle's exclamation, "Oh, my God, they've killed Kenny!," has become a catchphrase. The only sympathetic adult is Chef, the cook at the school, who drifts into a racy...

...show is clearly the product of two minds that have clocked a fair number of hours watching the work of Mike Judge (Beavis and Butt-head) and Matt Groening (The Simpsons). The four main characters--Cartman, Kyle, Stan and Kenny--have grating voices and feeble minds and show no aversion to scatological humor. The title, South Park, refers to the setting, a small hamlet where teachers are dolts, the mayor's first move in times of crisis is to call her personal stylist, and the school cook, in the show's wittiest turn, often breaks into imitation Barry White songs...
