Pip

This must be easily one of the worst episodes. The plot goes nowhere and nothing happens. Luke a lukewarm bowl of water with some lumps in it and those lumps don't taste like anything either.

It felt like this episode lasted for 45 minutes - and not in a good way.

Pip is a strange South Park episode.Most South Park fans will not like it(unless maybe you are both a fan of South Park and Charles Dickens).None of the main characters appear in this episode, it's solely an episode revolving around Pip.Pip is the British kid who usually is bullied by the boys(especially in Season 1).This is his own episode.The episode features Malcom McDowell(of Clockwork Orange fame) telling the story of Pip, which is basically a spoof of the Charles Dickens novel "Great Expectations" which I have not read.Pip is a poor blacksmith who falls in love with a girl, but the girl's mother wants her to break his heart so his tears can be used in a machine which will make the mother look younger.The episode is cut into three acts and involves robot monkey's as well.There are some funny parts in the episode, but it is one of the most unfunny episodes of the show.It is also sometimes hard to understand the characters.Pip is one of the worst South Park episodes but it is still decent.There are no really bad episodes of South Park in my opinion.

The first 10 minutes were definitely a head scratcher, the main characters are entirely absent, but the episode really grew on me. Malcolm McDowell is hilarious, and the "alternate" ending to the Charles Dickens masterpiece is hilarious.

I got the feeling that Trey and Matt were having a lot of fun with the episode, so I did as well. It's definitely not for everyone though.

Matt & Trey stated that this is their least favorite episode and they regret making it. Personally I think it's slightly underrated, no it's not a masterpiece but it does have it's moments. I'm quite familiar with the story it's based on and I have actually read the book. Which may be the reason why I appreciate this episode more than regular viewers.

No it's not an accurate representation of the book.. Robot monkeys and 17 year old American guys with cars in 19th century England, I mean c'mon lol. It's not supposed to be accurate, it's a parody and a fine one at that. Far from the best South Park has to offer but not as bad as they say.

I see a lot of hate for this one and to be honest, I don't know why. Sure, Pip is a completely stupid and random character to make an episode on, but at the same time, it had enough laughs to where I enjoyed it somewhat. It has an extremely boring start but it eventually picks up in the climax and has some pretty corny or just not funny moments. The characters in this one(with the exception of Pip) are very random and definitely were meant to be based off characters from "Great Expectations". While there is 300+ episodes in this show, "Pip" is certainly not the worst but also fails to maintain the South Park quality we like to see.
