South Park Emmy nomination

"Make Love,Not Warcraft" has been nominated for an emmy. Click here: http://www.emmys.tv/awards/2007pt/nominations.php It should be mentioned in the article.--Swellman 18:59, 19 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Seasons.

A recent edit stated that seasons shouldn't be capitalized. I think this is one of those things that isn't exactly a hardfast rule that must be obeyed at all times. Like the difference between "gray" and "grey", there is some... er... grey area, and consistency is more important than any individual guideline. Months are capitalized. Eras such as the Bronze Age or the Jurassic Period are usually capitalized. Some grammatical conventions allow for capitalized season names. What's important is to apply one rule or the other to all instances of season names in the article. Which of those two rules gets applied is of little consequence. - Ugliness Man 06:24, 20 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I just realized that, since we are talking about a television show, I should clarify for the sake of those who don't want to go look at the edit... when I say "seasons", I'm referring to Spring, Summer, Autumn (Fall), and Winter, not Season 1, Season 2, etc. - Ugliness Man 06:27, 20 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Production software...?

Apple's profile page of South Park mentions nothing about CorelDraw.

Losing to Phil Collins

In awards: "fully expecting to lose, just not to him." [citation needed]

This was said by Trey in the commentary to the episode in the fourth season DVD release. :) 71.127.95.182 09:43, 3 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

George Clooney

I remember when the original 5 minute short landed on the internet months before the show even started, and the word then was that it was created as a Christmas card for George Clooney, yet this article makes no mention of that and actually states otherwise. Can someone clarify for the record? Fermentor 07:43, 14 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The history given in the article is the version that I've heard from literally dozens of sources. I never heard the George Clooney story, and as far as I know he had nothing to do with South Park until episode 4. I don't know how much clarification we can provide, I'd suggest you either talk to whoever told you this, or do some Google searches, because at this point it's a completely unverified "I once heard this thing that nobody else seems to remember". - Ugliness Man 08:07, 14 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, yeah. I heard it on Undernet when the video first made the rounds. I don't live in a cave anymore, so I don't frequent IRC servers and cannot refer to those who made the claims. But believe me, the George Clooney story definitely made the rounds and I remember it being referenced many times. This was before there was even a show, and well before there was a fourth episode. If you can provide me with a link that says otherwise I will be satisfied, but for now I linger in pop culture limbo. Fermentor 23:44, 14 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
