Le Petit Tourette

This episode is definitely worth a watch, and if you're watching this in a marathon please continue there is much more to love. It's a perfect examples of the evil nature of Eric Cartman... and more!

Cartman's inner Adolf is fully unleashed in this classic episode. South Park take their twisted brand humour to a whole other level here; one that is rarely seen again, in any future episodes.

Super funny episode but what I liked about it is how it was somewhat disturbing at points.

This episode is so great. The idea of Cartman faking having Tourette's in order to take advantage of people is something that seems like a perfect fit and while it strikes some similarities to the episode where he pretends to be retarded to be in the special olympics, it's a formula that always works so well and it's really funny. The spontaneous words he comes up with are so funny and it's really interesting seeing how everyone else reacts. The story feels like it flows naturally and the scene at the therapy center is really powerful. It's one of the show's most powerful moments next to episodes like The Return of Chef and Kenny Dies. In my opinion, any time the show manages to get a powerful emotion it result a in one of the strongest episodes. And the twist of him actually potentially having it is one I didn't actually see coming and it feels like he's actually getting punishment besides getting yelled at. It feels like he actually learned his lesson and even though you know its going to get reversed by next episode that's okay because the show doesn't follow that type of continuity. It's easily one of the strongest episodes in the first half of the season, next to With Apologies to Jesse Jackson.

South park continues to be push envelopes and not let any topic go untouched. this time dealing with tourette syndrome.

not only is this show completely uninhibited but it always guarantees 20 minutes worth of laughter. even in a very serious subject such as this disorder.

though many thought of this episode as controversial and disrespectful to those unfortunate people suffering with tourette, i disagree.

during the show the characters made it quite clear to each other the severity of the issue, though cartman did abuse the situation, i don't think anybody can honestly say that the story was out to mock.

I'm sounding preachy which isn't my intent. final thoughts. great episode. hilarious as always while shedding the spotlight on an issue that not everyone is as familiar with as maybe they should.
