...want to alienate our fans." Lieberman understands why South Park is ripe for the stealing: its surprise success caught Comedy Central in short supply. Fewer than a dozen episodes have been produced, and they are getting heavily recycled. "With a new episode every week, the itch gets scratched on television," says Lieberman.

...time, of course. Watch one of our shlockier televangelists, and you'll be introduced to an affable deity eager to be enlisted as your personal genie. Yes, the Great Spinner of Galaxies, Digger of Black Holes is available, for a suitable "love offering," to relieve the itch of hemorrhoids and help you prevail in office intrigues! At least the ancient Hebrews had the good sense to make Yahweh unnameable and unseeable except in the flames of a burning bush--a permanent Mystery...
