Pandemic

Like plenty of South Park episodes such as Imaginationland or Go God Go, this is another two or more parter episode.There seems to be one for every season.This episode somewhat spoofs the movie "Cloverfield" which I have not yet seen.Stan gets annoyed with the fact that Peruvian flute bands are everywhere.The boys then decide to start there own so they can get rich.They need money to start it, so they ask Craig who has $100 from his grandmother to be in the band with them.But them and all the other flute bands end up getting sent to Guantanamo bay.Meanwhile, Randy gets a new video camera and bothers everybody with it.We also find out the Peruvian flute bands are playing to keep away some sort of "beast".The episode has a cliffhanger and will be continued in the next episode.I enjoyed this episode.It was not as good as Imaginationland or Go God Go, but it seems fairly promising and does have some very funny parts!

I agree with the other stellar reviews, which have captured most of what I wanted to say. One small but important point I'd like to add is that they got the Peruvian cultural references spot on.

As a Peruvian American with a Peruvian wife, we were particularly annoyed with the Peruvian references in the last Indiana Jones film. With their massive budget, they couldn't have done a little research to get those cultural details right? They actually had mariachi music playing in Peru (rolling eyes).

Fortunately, the South Park guys did us proud. Both of us were in HYSTERICS laughing at this episode, especially when we saw the "monsters" reveal. Absolutely classic!
