The Jeffersons

I love this episode because it is not only funny but also has some heart to it. Instead of easily making fun of Michael Jackson as a child molester, it critiques his parenting style and empathizes with his child and the neglect from MJ constantly trying to re-live his own lost childhood. As always in South Park, there are some good songs in this episode such as "Wishing Tree" and I laugh out loud every time I see it. They definitely poke fun at MJ with his plastic surgery and singing style but at the end you sort of feel sorry for him. I felt that the creators were siding with him in the end. This episode definitely ranks up there in my book.

Michael Jackson, under fake name Martin Jefferson, and his son Blanket move to South Park. Cartman becomes great friends with Michael because of all of his cool toys, while Kyle, Stan and Kenny try to be the good parents to Blanket Michael never was. It's a surprisingly sweet episode because the central character is Blanket instead of Michael. Along with that, it's also really funny. Trey Parker's terrible impression of Michael Jackson is much funnier than any good impression would be. It also features a disturbing dream sequence between Michael and Cartman, and one of Kenny's funniest deaths. It's part of a really great season!!
