@@mrspicolli It's possible that Matt and Trey may follow through with a serialized season with Tegridy Farms at the forefront. While I'm not totally on board with the Tegridy intro either, I'm interested to see where they go with season 23, so I'm alright stomaching it (much like a shitty Tegridy Burger) for the sake of storytelling.

@@drhfhs I respectfully disagree. tegridy farms in my opinion was genius. The fact is that there are so many people who are so tired of modern constructed lives and want things to be simpler. tegridy farms captures that feeling perfectly, and is so relatable for me, and many others.
@@tanishpanjwani3117 but on the other end is that it’s a product to be sold just like all of the others. Like a season earlier where all of the various heroes and villains turned out to be advertisements in human form Tegrity which seems like the answer is yet another ad with products to be purchased. It’s wonderfully done but also dissatisfying in it’s implication. There is no way out.
@@drhfhs I both agree and disagree with you on this. I strongly agree that it was a lazy portion for them only because they did an entire season about it and it got old very quickly. But I also disagree because, and this is only personal by the way, I enjoyed watching Randy's character being developed much more he is my personal because he reminds me exactly of my dad whom passed away while he was deployed overseas and randy 110% is a cartoon version of my dad. Also, trey has mentioned many times over that randy is basically him now that hes older he used to portrait him as his dad so I feel like in a way trey really leaned into gum for thr writing but yes I do strongly agree with you that the whole farm thing got old very very fast. My dad used to drink and get into fights in the bleachers when I was playing sports as a young boy and he was always obsessed with how big his craps were and at 1 point he contemplated when he got out of the army to grow pot on a farm and live a slow neutral simple life instead of his fast paced normal one. I'm sorry for ranting but I do miss him and I get to visit him when I watch south park. He died from an IED incase you were wondering. They were in a vehicle traveling and it took out everyone in the humvee him and 2 other people. My mom is not one to get upset over much of anything and to see her crying with 2 men in uniforms at the front door immediately told me he died.
I love that when things get business heavy or contentious, Matt steps in while Trey suffers through, when it goes back to topics of creativity and process Trey takes the wheel again. These guys have been so funny. For so long. Still love cannibal the musical.
Wow! I’m a whore for interviews with M&T, and I’ve never actively noticed that, but now that you’ve pointed it out; I’ve see Matt “step in” for Trey in just about every interview I’ve seen. Definitely going to look for that from here on out.
@KYMAN is Here and Orgazmo!!!! I’ve never seen a theater go that crazy. That was before South Park even. I just got handed a free ticket on the street as a promo, didn’t even realize it was the Cannibal the Musical guys till I got to the theater and saw the poster.
@@erichsevers5595 he also tends to step in when people start asking Trey personal questions I’ve noticed. Like that Fallon interview where he insists (against Trey very adamantly protesting) to talk about Trey’s junior High joke bands demo. I would kill to just be able to sit in the writers room silently and watch Trey and Matt constructing shows. I’ll never forget the writing advice Trey gave when they did the guest lecture at an NYU writing class. If you have the words “and then” between the beats of your story, you’re fucked. It should always be “but, or therefore.” Probably should’ve figured that out on my own, but 🤷🏻♂️. ruclips.net/video/vGUNqq3jVLg/видео.html
I love south park too but not as much as i love apple pie with a side of ice cream of course oh yum. But i cant eat it all day or else Ill get tummy-ache..so yeah (just sayin)
Not anymore though. SP lost its edge and they have adjusted their jokes to the woke censors. It's time for new talent to confront the new PC environment because SP isn't doing it.
@@GQ2593 not true. The show evolves with it’s creators. They’re still more edgy than any other show on the air today, it’s just not late 90’s/Early 2000’s style of edgy.
Especially knowing how matt and trey are, they don't give a fuck, they're brutally honest. And CC knew they had gold, so no matter what they said, south park would stay
I wonder at least twice a year how the kids in the hall didn’t become gods of the comedy world. I was always waiting for them to be at Mel brooks or Monty Python levels
I understand that South Park is just a tv show but Matt and Trey are geniuses. They've kept a brand name solid throughout 20 years, always stayed true to their motto, made alot of money. Hats off to these guys, they should be apart of the illuminati
+Jake Jordan I remember seeing an interview with someone talking about the pair - he said they were inseparable and really in sync with each other, so it makes sense
Seems like a normal subconscious thing regarding body language. For instance, if you're in a discussion with people and someone crosses their arms, it indicates a more closed off position, and you're more likely to do the same thing in response. Watch in the future if you haven't noticed that people do these things. It's all subconscious body language. Kinda interesting! :D
Y'all are missing the obvious... They did it on purpose to see if anyone would notice... and by the name, only a true fan would. well played, Jack. well played. 😝
Watching the first ever episode with my dad when it aired on sky one for the first time is most definitely the most pivotal Tv moment in my life and helped validate my world perspective as a weird 13 year old
What an incredible sense of humor these two have..so spontaneous, just spot on! and it kinda justifies why both are always together...because they have probably never found people having brains up to their level.
I've seen an utterly countless amount of interviews, discussions and just general life from these Guys over the Years, they're literally my childhood heroes, without any doubt......and always will be. I've actually never seen anything like this.......to this level. I'm finding it hard to even describe what I mean.......It's almost like they've dumbed themselves down for everything prior to this publicly, even if just a little....Then, in this instance, it was literally full expert mode or nothing at all. So much poignant, thought provoking insight, that I already knew they have, just from the Years of watching their shows, and listening to the them as such profound People. It's like they went to another level with it here, and you can see how they bounce off each other with such flawless transition. They beautifully complement each others strengths and weakness's when it comes to getting their point across, and you can see why it was just a perfect storm for something that was going to be so World changingly brilliant. As Matt has said "Trey is the Chef" and the creative mastermind, and you can see from this that Matt is the intellectual precision that keeps everything afloat.......True genius is hard to come by.........Two together, achieves the impossible. I feel like I've just sucked off the whole fuckin' dictionary writing this haha, but in all honesty.......my passion for these Guys, with them being my Life growing up.....They were the perfect cement inbetween Humour and Real Life, to grow up understanding and respecting the difference between the two.
I was a young kid (under 10) and was part of the focus group testing. Everyone that was in my group gave great scores to south park when we were there. First time I saw it I was amazed. There was nothing like it when it came out. Still love the show and Matt and Trey did a great job. P.s. BASEketball was a great film too.
Nice to see an overview of points from the artists and a network representative from Comedy Central. The points of view provide clarity and a better comprehension of the outlooks and battles both sides face from advertisers. I agree 100 % with the points of free speech and that a company shouldn't be able to dictate to a network or influence the change of the very freedom of speech that is in the American Constitution. I admire the relationship it has created for those men sitting there and that the context and the envelope has been pushed and will continue to be pushed. The controversial awareness, humorous satire and high intellectual dynamics this show brings is what society needs. Which is a good fucking dose of reality that we can all laugh at. I miss All in the Family. How the Jefferson's were intertwined in with such a controversial show. It set a standard for us as society to address issues. That talking to one anouther about the show and addressing the big pink elephant in the room was healthy. That laughing at our differences was good for us. People are to damn sensitive. But shows like these bring a dose of reality. Married with children was ground breaking as well. AND South park picked up and carried the torch for 22 years. South park has taken it to anouther level year after year. I watch south park with my daughter. We talk about the issues they touch on. We learn things from different perception and about the topics they touch on. The show not only provides a great dialog for us to talk about society. But it provides us with time together laughing and enjoying each other's company. We love south park. Happy it's still around!
Amazingly interesting, intelligent, informative, entertaining, and real! Great dudes working great art magic! Makes ya feel good about being human! Thanks dudes!
@@user-nh1og5hy1u I dont think he was being literal in the sense that 100% of everything is ok. I would say just watching this they had/have a great relationship with divney
Honestly don’t even love South Park like some people do, but I admire the show because if I happen to see it on CC, I’m usually witnessing something outrageous and brilliant that nobody else would dare animate and air. And Matt and Trey are really admirable advocates of free speech.
Their stories about the MPAA and others like it have taught me the important distinction between censorship and creative control. Getting the privilege to create exactly what you want is rare, but it's likely. What's NOT likely is whether or not the people who said you could do it will SHOW it. Think of all of the great movies that became cult classics on home video but had zero promotion in their theatrical run, or TV shows which became a hit in reruns but weren't popular enough to sustain multiple seasons. It's not just about having a voice, it's about someone else letting you hold the microphone.
I was trying to learn english at a very young age and pronunciation, of course, was the difficult part. So, as a teen I started watching South Park and my brain got so used to the American language that I learned pronunciation really fast.. also american slang and history, and not only american stuff, tbh. I always got curious about things they said or did and had to search for them on the internet and they've expanded my interest in learning cool stuff (till this very day).. so, the best part was learning while having a good laugh xD these guys are geniuses and their creation has touched me a lot. I also had a huge crush on Matt Stone (and I think I still have it) ❤️
That's so cool haha, I did similar, not with a whole language, that's amazing haha......But with me being from the Uk, I learnt a lot about US Slang, Culture and just generally everything through hearing things on Southpark and then being interested enough to do research on anything and everything they were talking about over the Years 🙂
Summer 1997, I was flipping through the channels, I saw these round headed cartoons, it caught my attention. I didn't flip the channel. 23 years later and I'm still a fan. Is not as fresh as back on the days but it's still pretty funny to me.
I was lucky enough to be able to see The Book of Mormon on Broadway during its original run in 2011, and I strongly believe the perceived (by me, and potentially others) dip in quality of South Park during seasons 12-14 was because the musical was their primary focus. Then after they got that "out of their system" the show's quality ticked back up a little, but as time has continued to go on the show has lost a bit of its bite. Completely inevitable in my opinion, and they've created over 2 dozen seasons by this point and as time goes on the quality is going to continue to be lowered as they just flat out run out of potential ideas and jokes. I sincerely hope they identify a good stopping point and end the show with dignity (with a season long plot that sums up the show's amazing run in a deserving way) as opposed to just having the show stop airing out of nowhere. These guys are geniuses but eventually every concept runs its course.
@Amanda J Nice! I saw it a total of 3 times, with the first time being the OG run on broadway with the original cast and the second 2 times in San Diego on subsequent runs with new casts. I'd say the traveling runs capture 90-95% of the original magic. The only lost components are the undeniably amazing OG cast (although I feel like the traveling casts are still damn good) and a few minor special effects that were designed for the Eugene O'Neill theater and couldn't be easily adapted to the changing sets they'd be seeing on the road. Some shows you can't truly say you've seen with a full heart unless you saw the original run, but I feel like The Book of Mormon is not one of them. I'll see it again the next time it comes through SD, and don't feel like it's any major dip in quality over the original. I mean obviously Josh Gad and Andrew Rannells were one in a billion stars, but it's still excellent without them.
South Park hasn't appealed or spoken to me in over 10 years now, but it moulded me, my moral compass and who I am today as a person, it may not talk to me anymore, and may be the voice of a new generation, but it's still one of the biggest influences on me and who I am today and I will always love Trey and Matt for this.
This comment reminds me of the insurance commercials when you become your parents after becoming a homeowner Oh come now…. Lol. Did you grow up and lose your sense of humor?
I was born 1984, I watched my first episode in prison 2010 and absolutely loved it. Since then I have watched southpark every morning and night. Ive seen every single episode about 10 times more or less. I dont care about Trey Parkers and Matt Stones other movies and video clips much, all I care about is the fact that southpark is the best thing that ever happened to entertaining.
Whenever Trey and Matt discuss the industry, they always have something very intelligent and insightful to say that no one else in show business even has the balls to bring up. Even today, I can't think of anyone who are more cutting edge than these two were back in the day. South Park nowadays may be a mixed bag of quality (in my opinion at least), but Trey and Matt's principles that are encapsulated by those first 8-9 seasons hold up so extremely well, especially today. It also really just goes to show in retrospect just how far standards and practices have come in the past 20 years when it comes to how far you're able to push the envelope on TV, and what you can and can't do. If it weren't for these guys, things would be probably still be so much more restrictive in terms of creative expression.
@@dinglemaniac1541 I absolutely agree. I think my assumption about it is that it has more to do with the current form of it just being from a different cultural and ideological shift rather than from their own end like how it was, and that those people in particular who discuss it don't really take that into perspective.
@@dinglemaniac1541 I'm so depressingly tired of hearing words melted into internet slang, pretty much formed into a meme, and then taken on seriously by the mass media thinking it's edgy............"Cancel" and "Toxic" are prime examples......What happened to "Fuck off" and "Psycho". I'm only 30 Years old dagfuckin' nabbit! I aint' no "Boomer" yet hahaha, use to be a great name if you worked in or owned a garage. 🙄
It's amazing they figured Subway wouldn't want to advertise for the Jared episode then just a few years later in the WoW episode they featured Best Buy by brand name and not even a week later, Best Buy had an employee training video that featured that clip from the show.
1:08 bruh I hope I find a friend like this one day. They are literally always making each other laugh and they’re still friends after working together for like 30 years
@GENERAL DISARRAY'S BOSS 83 You're kind of right. Dems and Repubs are two factions of the corporate, military wing, the only political wing this country has.
Is Speaking Freely still on? If not it should be, and shown at every high school and university in America. It’s needed today more than ever. I love Trey said something like kids are looking for comedy shows where sometimes they don’t even get what’s funny, but it makes them want to go and find out. That’s literally exactly how South Park was for me watching it as a 10-11 year old in 1997-98.

Heard about a woman named Sherry Lansing in this interview. Googled her. What a woman.
Amazingly interesting, intelligent, informative, entertaining, and real! Great dudes working great art magic!
Makes ya feel good about being human! Thanks dudes!
"The MPAA is just there it's like STAR Chamber"
- Matt Stone
What a reference...
Love these guys . ....thank you for saying what everyone is really thinking...you guys are brilliant
As long as the world stays such a screwed up place then matt and trey will never run out of material to use!
wow these guys are great! hope this south park show works out for them
They're so lucky to have a boss like that. The CEO is totally fine with them doing anything :D
dark4krad except showing The Prophet M######d
There was no real problem on their part on showing Muhammad. It was just that they were scared they would be bombed by terrorists if they did.
They literally talk for 5 minutes about how he censored their subway episode. Where were you during that 5 minutes
@@user-nh1og5hy1u I dont think he was being literal in the sense that 100% of everything is ok. I would say just watching this they had/have a great relationship with divney
@@BuuhBlocks divney?
Great conversation! Trey and Matt are uniquely qualified to speak about First Amendment rights. National treasures, those boys are!
Honestly don’t even love South Park like some people do, but I admire the show because if I happen to see it on CC, I’m usually witnessing something outrageous and brilliant that nobody else would dare animate and air. And Matt and Trey are really admirable advocates of free speech.
This was a great interview
I respect those two men they stand their ground with their beliefs
We now need this show heading into 2022 more than ever!
For a cool $900 million, we still got it!!
15:46 and 14 years later, still going strong.

If they thought PC was bad back then...I wonder if I time traveled back to 2002, and told them what 2017 PC was like, if they would believe it.
hey its 2021 how r u feeling
What about Mac tho?
No matter what never changed stayed true to themselves.....Thanks guys
Man this guy who heads Comedy Central or whatever seems pretty cool he seems like he really gets and cares about what makes South Park South Park
Their stories about the MPAA and others like it have taught me the important distinction between censorship and creative control. Getting the privilege to create exactly what you want is rare, but it's likely. What's NOT likely is whether or not the people who said you could do it will SHOW it.
Think of all of the great movies that became cult classics on home video but had zero promotion in their theatrical run, or TV shows which became a hit in reruns but weren't popular enough to sustain multiple seasons.
It's not just about having a voice, it's about someone else letting you hold the microphone.
Blazing Saddles is a great movie.
Matt and Trey are my life heroes the amount of laughter they give me is unreal! They make the world seem not so bad :)
One of my favorite things about Matt and Trey is how they basically represent Colorado in so many ways
My two babies💓💓💓perfect angels
Loved that he mentioned Kids in the Hall. Brilliant.
Great interview, this is a great show and Matt and Trey are heroes for free speech.
I was trying to learn english at a very young age and pronunciation, of course, was the difficult part. So, as a teen I started watching South Park and my brain got so used to the American language that I learned pronunciation really fast.. also american slang and history, and not only american stuff, tbh. I always got curious about things they said or did and had to search for them on the internet and they've expanded my interest in learning cool stuff (till this very day).. so, the best part was learning while having a good laugh xD these guys are geniuses and their creation has touched me a lot. I also had a huge crush on Matt Stone (and I think I still have it) ❤️
That's so cool haha, I did similar, not with a whole language, that's amazing haha......But with me being from the Uk, I learnt a lot about US Slang, Culture and just generally everything through hearing things on Southpark and then being interested enough to do research on anything and everything they were talking about over the Years 🙂
Matt has Kyle's laugh :O
I thought Kyle's laugh was kind of pushed. Now, I know.
Well Kyle is voiced by Matt so... obviously.
When i was a kid i didnt know who played who
alot of great shows but nothing tops south park...
Aaron L amen
I like SpongeBob better.
Simpsons
@@beezaray4130
Stop it lol
Aaron L ever heard of family guy
To think of all the stuff they've done SINCE this interview.
South Park is the best thing ever on TV.
Summer 1997, I was flipping through the channels, I saw these round headed cartoons, it caught my attention. I didn't flip the channel. 23 years later and I'm still a fan. Is not as fresh as back on the days but it's still pretty funny to me.
I was lucky enough to be able to see The Book of Mormon on Broadway during its original run in 2011, and I strongly believe the perceived (by me, and potentially others) dip in quality of South Park during seasons 12-14 was because the musical was their primary focus. Then after they got that "out of their system" the show's quality ticked back up a little, but as time has continued to go on the show has lost a bit of its bite. Completely inevitable in my opinion, and they've created over 2 dozen seasons by this point and as time goes on the quality is going to continue to be lowered as they just flat out run out of potential ideas and jokes. I sincerely hope they identify a good stopping point and end the show with dignity (with a season long plot that sums up the show's amazing run in a deserving way) as opposed to just having the show stop airing out of nowhere. These guys are geniuses but eventually every concept runs its course.
@Amanda J Nice! I saw it a total of 3 times, with the first time being the OG run on broadway with the original cast and the second 2 times in San Diego on subsequent runs with new casts. I'd say the traveling runs capture 90-95% of the original magic. The only lost components are the undeniably amazing OG cast (although I feel like the traveling casts are still damn good) and a few minor special effects that were designed for the Eugene O'Neill theater and couldn't be easily adapted to the changing sets they'd be seeing on the road.
Some shows you can't truly say you've seen with a full heart unless you saw the original run, but I feel like The Book of Mormon is not one of them. I'll see it again the next time it comes through SD, and don't feel like it's any major dip in quality over the original. I mean obviously Josh Gad and Andrew Rannells were one in a billion stars, but it's still excellent without them.
Twenty years later still going strong as ever. They are miraculous in their consistency.
26:30 Priceless when they'e both laughing with each other. Funniest guys ever.
nice to see how much the boys can still make each other laugh!
South Park hasn't appealed or spoken to me in over 10 years now, but it moulded me, my moral compass and who I am today as a person, it may not talk to me anymore, and may be the voice of a new generation, but it's still one of the biggest influences on me and who I am today and I will always love Trey and Matt for this.
This comment reminds me of the insurance commercials when you become your parents after becoming a homeowner
Oh come now…. Lol. Did you grow up and lose your sense of humor?
I miss “Win Ben Steins money”. Ben was great!
if Matt and Trey did a podcast it would be bigger than JRE ever was in a few months.
I would listen to that
@@liafrota4312 everyone would
That was f-ing awesome.
It’s crazy to hear them talk about the 80s being PC. If they only knew what was coming in another decade lol
Love the end credits
I was born 1984, I watched my first episode in prison 2010 and absolutely loved it. Since then I have watched southpark every morning and night. Ive seen every single episode about 10 times more or less. I dont care about Trey Parkers and Matt Stones other movies and video clips much, all I care about is the fact that southpark is the best thing that ever happened to entertaining.
+Golden Arts Team America is GOLD!
Word dude,i was born in 1990 & i would sing the uncle fucker song at school. Great show
813lynch same here nov 1...so I grew up on that shit that and Celerity Death Match Beavis and Butthead
Havent seen Team America for 10+ years so I dont really remember.
MovieHound17 hahha holy shit man, celebrity death match and Beavis and butthead, where the fuck has time gone
Whenever Trey and Matt discuss the industry, they always have something very intelligent and insightful to say that no one else in show business even has the balls to bring up. Even today, I can't think of anyone who are more cutting edge than these two were back in the day. South Park nowadays may be a mixed bag of quality (in my opinion at least), but Trey and Matt's principles that are encapsulated by those first 8-9 seasons hold up so extremely well, especially today.
It also really just goes to show in retrospect just how far standards and practices have come in the past 20 years when it comes to how far you're able to push the envelope on TV, and what you can and can't do. If it weren't for these guys, things would be probably still be so much more restrictive in terms of creative expression.
Your final point is exactly why I don't understand when people say cancel culture is worse now than it was in the 90's.
@@dinglemaniac1541 I absolutely agree. I think my assumption about it is that it has more to do with the current form of it just being from a different cultural and ideological shift rather than from their own end like how it was, and that those people in particular who discuss it don't really take that into perspective.
@@dinglemaniac1541 I'm so depressingly tired of hearing words melted into internet slang, pretty much formed into a meme, and then taken on seriously by the mass media thinking it's edgy............"Cancel" and "Toxic" are prime examples......What happened to "Fuck off" and "Psycho".
I'm only 30 Years old dagfuckin' nabbit! I aint' no "Boomer" yet hahaha, use to be a great name if you worked in or owned a garage. 🙄
Holy fuckin shit I thought I recognized this guy I took one of his classes at college. History of the recording industry
It's amazing they figured Subway wouldn't want to advertise for the Jared episode then just a few years later in the WoW episode they featured Best Buy by brand name and not even a week later, Best Buy had an employee training video that featured that clip from the show.
Mad Magazine was my first foray into (after Bugs Bunny) adult humor that I didn't compleatly understand until I was older
Went from couldn’t say the n word to had a whole episode saying it Matt and trey are America
1:08 bruh I hope I find a friend like this one day. They are literally always making each other laugh and they’re still friends after working together for like 30 years
i never realized what cinematic terrorists and how anti everything they were. i love it.
Cinematic terrorists is spot on!
Well said..its how art should be..
Wow, the comedy central dude is pretty cool.
this was super insightful and their comments on freedom of speech are ahead of its time.
Trey and Matt are as important as the Louisiana Purchase
Talking of pc... these guys will probably be known as the last of the great satirists.
Moo01100 Or hopefully.. the first of a whole new generation of satirists 🥰
100% facts
Moo01100 the last? Is the world ending tomorrow or something lmao
@GENERAL DISARRAY'S BOSS 83 You're kind of right. Dems and Repubs are two factions of the corporate, military wing, the only political wing this country has.
Horseshoe centrists be like
The sky is blue and all the leaves are green
My heart's as warm as a baked pa-tay-ta!
Don't lie, y'all thought "Star Chamber" was a sci-fi reference until you googled it, too
Oh my god, thank you -- I just googled it and it went from an obscure reference to a clever metaphor
Is Speaking Freely still on? If not it should be, and shown at every high school and university in America. It’s needed today more than ever. I love Trey said something like kids are looking for comedy shows where sometimes they don’t even get what’s funny, but it makes them want to go and find out. That’s literally exactly how South Park was for me watching it as a 10-11 year old in 1997-98.
This interviewer is as good as Jesus in South park.. so entertaining lol 😂
And think Stone and Parker are worth over a BILLION $$ today.....it’s crazy how powerful they are and influential.
I love this comedy team so much!!
They deserve every damned penny.
Amazing people
You gotta love that pull in
What program is this? Amazing interview!
This was fascinating. The entire middle stretch was tense, like watching them argue back and forth as if they're in the board room rofl
This is awesome.
