Jimmy has to get control of his raging hormones in time to perform in the school's talent show.

A Jimmy-centric episode...this should be interesting.

Did Barbrady's voice change? It doesn't sound quite right.

 

[Juu-kuchi]

Dr. Pal... indeed. Too much of a pal.

 

[Spongebrain2.0]

Holy Crap...Do Trey & Matt do this on purpose, as in saving the best episodes of all time for the end of the season. This is quite possibly the funniest SP episode I have seen in years

 

[Juu-kuchi]

...This is depraved. Yet for some reason hilarious.

There's something funny about a handicapped 10-year old kid carrying a rather heavyset hooker to that tune.

 

[Spongebrain2.0]

After a half season of modestly funny episodes. This episode proves that SP is not losing steam. Man, this one was classic!

 

[Shark]

Wow, Jimmy going through the car chase, getting shot, finally getting laid, and in the end, all for nothing. Hilarious!

Good Points:
-Goth band's song about how talent shows are gay.
-Butters (I swear, everything he does is funny)
-... AHHH! Darn this terrible short term memory of mine!

 

[Happy]

It was okay but the episode that aired before was funnier. I did love their take on authentic Italian restraunts and talent shows though.

I'm going to sound like a total SP newbie, which I am (although I've seen a few, like the Christmas one with Mr. Hanky, parts of the movie, and the one where the boys keep pulling hoaxes on the two guys on public acess), so here was my reaction:

"......Wow.....Haha.......WOW.....HAHAHA........WOW"

(I'm betting this is a pretty common reaction for SP newbies, right?)

Although I was expecting a different ending. I was kinda expecting the school and his parents to find out he had sex with a prostitute and then explaining how not only will he not get laid all the time, but you shouldn't do that anyway, and then something shock value, like him getting a disease and/or getting the prostitute pregnant.

I take it the joke with him being such a lousy comedian but everyone laughing is because they pity him for being disabled, right?

Jimmy carried the Hooker "Officer and a Gentleman" stlye was hilarious! i coulden't stop laughing. Jimmy had a hard time controling himself when he heard the little bells ringing noise everytime he got an erection. I also liked Butters peeing himself when he got embarrassed and Ms. Garrision had to clean up his pee. That was funny!

This episode was funny and Jimmy had a lot of screen time. I think South Park still has it with the comedy and good ideas. I can't wait to see what they got in store for the eighth and final episode to end the first half of season 9

 

[Fone Bone]

This was so wrong and so right at the exact same time.

Well, it looks like Jimmy's learned what ALL boys have to come to realize: There is NO way to permanently unpitch a tent.

Sneezing milk. Nut Gobbler. Nice.

Cartman's been laid over 5000 times? Wow, I never would have guessed.

Best parody of An Officer and a Gentlemen since The Simpsons Life in the Fast Lane.

You've got to be kidding me! Best. Closing. Line. EVER!

Score (HA!): ****1/2. Really. I never thought about it that way. That is SO interesting.

 

[NickWhiz1]

The chase scene seriously has to be one of the best sequences in the series. I love how Jimmy is virtually unphased after getting shot in the shoulder. Gogogo cartoonage!

Jimmy had to learn what all us guys have learned the hard way Still, the girls have got it worse IMO.

 

[RD!]

Juvenile garbage... I thought I'd never actually say that myself about an SP episode but come on... this was total garbage.

 

[TnAdct1]

When it comes to the talent show part, all I can say is this: Screw Jimmy. Give me the Goths "anti-talent show" song and Cartman's impression of Al Pacino in Scarface.

 

[Christopher Glennon]

Gonna have to disagree Strawberry Jam. In South Park terms, I don't think it was that juvenille. What guy on here didn't sympathize with Jimmy? I sure did. Of course, it doesn't go that far, but it's kind of funny. I liked Cartman as the White Hitch. Jimmy's one of my favorite characters, so of course I'd like this episode. Great ending.

 

[Zero Signal]

Okay, now that was a classic episode. I've liked all of them this season, but this was the best of the bunch (so far). For some reason I tend to really enjoy episodes that focus on people other than the main four. Since Butters and Jimmy are two of my favorites, I was really happy.

The Highlights:
--Dr. Pal was sick and wrong on so many levels, but I just couldn't quit laughing. Totally wrong.
--The earpiece Jimmy wore on his date. I kinda saw the joke coming, but it was still great.
--Cartman's advice was amazing, and Jimmy's delivery of the lines had me rolling.
--Poor Butters. They pick on that kid so much, I'm surprised he hasn't snapped. Hopefully it's leading to a return of Professor Chaos.
--Best. Car. Chase. Ever. It just kept building and getting funnier, and I loved him paying the $6 from the top of the car.
--Those Goth kids rule. It wouldn't be so funny if it wasn't just like a bunch of kids I went to high school with.
--Cartman doing Scarface caught me off guard. I love that movie to death, and Eric did an awesome job with some great lines.
--Officer and a Gentleman song was perfect. That whole scene was great.
--"You've got to be kidding me!" Fone Bone is right, that's probably the best closing line the show has done.

Great episode. 4 and 1/2 pitched tents from me.

 

[TurtleTitan]

Pretty funny. Things I liked:

- The "dingaling" noise when an erection was coming
- Sneezing milk
- "Oh yeah I've gotten laid like 1000 times" + Cartman's advice
- Cartman's Scarface
- The car chase + "Here's your money" (on top of the car)
- "You've gotta be kidding me."

I think Barbrady's voice seemed off. And, aside from the ending quote, it could've used a better ending...Jimmy actually had sex with her

 

[HomeMoviesFan]

I take it the joke with him being such a lousy comedian but everyone laughing is because they pity him for being disabled, right?

No, the town idolizes Jimmy for his jokes. In fact, he's got some pretty funny ones in past eps this time. The joke, I guess, this time was that Jimmy was trying to do current events, and instead of doing some funny stuff, Trey decided to just joke around with how current they can get and not focus on the "punchline" (since half of the jokes didn't get their punchline anyway tonight)...

Anyways...wow...that wasn't as screwed up as "Woodland Critter Christmas"...it was much MORE screwed up than it!! Especially Jimmy and the prostitute (though I was expecting a Sin City parody)...oh, jeez, classic stuff here...

 

[Classic Speedy]

Did Barbrady's voice change? It doesn't sound quite right.

I noticed that too. He sounded like a mother who's babytalking her toddler.

Anyway, it was pretty hilarious all the way through, with the biggest highlight being the chase scene. Every time Jimmy opens his mouth he cracks me up because of how fast he talks. His stand-up is almost exactly like Leno's, too. It was so great hearing him say "There's not much time until the talent show!" as a reason for wanting to get laid.

Line of the night, besides the ending, came from Mr. Mackey, after Jimmy confides in him about his erection in class: "Oh Jimmy's just pitching his tent". GRADE: A-

 

[Stewie]

Meh. During a commercial break I switched to ATHF. By the time I remembered to go back, the car chase was over and Jimmy was already on stage.
I wouldn't say I cared that I missed it.

 

[Juu-kuchi]

...Did anybody get a big laugh at how Butters uses the urinal?
