Honestly I can see where you're coming from, but I'd say meteor shower trilogy if I could pick any starting point for a fresh viewer. It doesn't just have a great story for the boys like this episode, it has 3, and 2 for the adults. And "I DESIRE.... MACARONI PICTURES AND POPCORN NECKLACES!!!!"
Same. Casa Bonita was my first South Park episode and I'm glad it was. My exposure to it was my dad getting into South Park first, finding this episode hilarious, him sharing it with me, and then me finding it hilarious, and then I got interested in exploring the show further.
I'm a Colorado native and I went to Casa Bonita for a friend's birthday in the late 80's. It was really fun, but the most memorable part for me was the wishing well
Three points here, One. It never dawned on me until now that Cartman is so shortsighted, he never had a plan for what to do after Cassa Bonita with butters. He just didn’t think of it. Two. It’s sad that there’s still a decent chance that butters got grounded after he got found. Three. I like it at the end when everyone is standing around watching Cartman float in the water everyone looks mad except Kenny who just kind of stares like “yeah that looks like something he’d do.”
It’s wild to think that this show could have never had Butters in it and without him South Park just wouldn’t be South Park. Butters steals every scene he is in and it’s all thanks to their animation director.
I went to Casa Bonita last week!!!!!! I cannot stress enough how correct it is to call it tbe Disneyland of Mexican restaurants. It's genuinely magical. I went with my parents and my brother (we're both 22) and none of us felt like it was just for kids. We even loved the puppet and magic shows. PLEASE GO IF YOU GET THE CHANCE!!!!!! I'm not even in the same state but I already wanna plan my next trip
it's magical. Was the food any good since they bought it? Matt and Trey said they wanted to improve the menu. It used to be AWFUL but that was kind of special part of the experience.
No dude. If they'd all decided "you go to Casa Bonita yourself, we need to look for Butters" he'd have probably enjoyed it more. See also: Cartmanland.
@ I don’t disagree but I don’t think it makes my point any less true. If he had just experienced it by himself while everyone else searched, we still would have seen Cartman rejecting genuine human emotion. Albeit in a less funny way
It's interesting the boys are worried about Butters' disappearance in this episode when just two seasons ago in "Butters' Very Own Episode" Butters was missing, presumed dead, and at the end when he came home Stan casually asked "Butters was missing?" unaware he was ever absent.
I went to Casa Bonita as part of a summer camp when I was a kid in Fort Collins. It’s every bit as awesome and magical as they make it out to be for kids. I went a few times with my family too before the episode was aired and they capture the energy of what that place does to a kid perfectly.
It never donned on me, why didn’t Cartman try to manipulate his mom into convince Sheila to invite him so that way him, Butters, Kyle, Stan and Kenny could all go to Casa Bonita (or better yet, Cartman could’ve asked his mom if they could go to Casa Bonita at the same time Kyle had his party there).
Good point. I'm guessing that perhaps Cartman wanted not only to get to go to Casa Bonita, but he also wanted to do it specifically through manipulating Kyle into letting him go despite initially not wanting to allow it. It's a way to get something he wants, while sticking it to Kyle in the process. I guess the thrill of manipulating Kyle is like the sprinkles on a cupcake that would make the Casa Bonita experience just a little nicer for Cartman, but idk, I'm just speculating.
I see it like this, Cartman wants to go to Casa Bonita - but his ego probably took a hit when Kyle didn't allow him to go. He wanted Kyle to tell him he can go so he can "win"
Casa Bonita has a Hitchcockian quality to it in part due the way it handles the tension between what Cartman wants and the things continually getting in his way, with the dark secret of what he did to Butters getting closer to being revealed.
I just realized that all my favorite episodes are Cartman and Butters episodes. I knew before that those are always great, but I didn't realize how many of them are just so much better than the rest.
I LOVE this episode, but honestly I think Make Love Not Warcraft takes the cake for best single episode. Or Imagination Land if you wanna talk about multiple episodes. I also love the Snooki want Smoosh Smoosh episode (Forgot the actual name), or the like Lesbian 300 Parody against the Persians 😂
Y’know whats funny; the ending of this episode reminds me of the ending of the anime “Death Note” where Light/cartmen are exposed and both their faces go from joy/sadistic glee to “oh shit im caught” in a second. And just like light, eric decides to make a run for it 🤣
10:57, It was nice of Eric to give Kyle a present despite not being invited, plus after Kyle got him Ants in the Pants instead of the red Mega Man, which led to Eric throwing a temper tantrum and ending his party.
Man, South Park is amazing, me and a friend I work with always talk about it a lot. cat orgy was the very first episode I watched. this was back when South Park used to air on the CW, I don’t know if anyone remembers that but I do.
13:45 that's definitely annie, one of the girls from south park elementary. shes always shown in a brown shirt, while tweek is always shown in a green one.
14:56 Some people could see what they imagine VERY realisticly, like if they are imagining holding an apple it just like real life. Some people dont have it at all, some people have it weaker (I really like this topic)
I don't have it. No visual mind or memory whatsoever. It gets embarrassing sometimes if I walk past a relative i haven't seen for a while - I just don't have a saved image of them. Also, you should see how bad I am at drawing, if you saw my stickmen you'd think I was deliberately drawing them badly. Nope, that's my best effort.
I’ve been watching South Park for so long and I was definitely way too young to watch it when I first saw it. Love this episode though I have no clue how to even begin to decide what is my favorite South Park episode
I think this episode is really good because for once Kyle doesn't suck. He's actually written likable and not obnoxious in this episode because he's most of the time just the self-rightous version of Cartman. Because when it comes to actually moral characters in the show Butter, Kenny, Stan and Jimmy typically fit the bill better than Kyle.
There is something with cartman losing things he loves and gaining shreds of humanity from it. Similar to the future episodes where older cartman had turned a new leaf as a jew after losing his friendship with the main cast, but then when they changed reality and got them the basketball game, he turned out to be a bum
the only bad part of this episode is that cartman once again got what he wanted, and even though he did have to suffer the consequence of his actions, we never get to see it
Here’s the thing you’re 100% right this puts a lot of pressure on avowed but just like everything if they deliver an excellent product nobody cares about the context
Cartman is expert manipulator, he knew that if he acted defeated, Kyle would lower his guard down and slip information that he could use to his benefit. He didn't do it from beginning because he knew Kyle wouldn't tell him anything, so everything including beating up Jimmy was all part of his plan
I feel like the Meteor Shower trilogy needs to get mentioned. Three episodes all focusing on different things all happening at once. Kenny at Jewbilee has to be my favorite SP episode.
interestingly enough this is also one of your better videos.. and i don't know if that's due to your love towards this episode, or out of spite to those white-thumbnail content farms (or both)
The fact that this was my first episode makes this even better, I think it’s the best place to start if you never watched South Park
Honestly I can see where you're coming from, but I'd say meteor shower trilogy if I could pick any starting point for a fresh viewer. It doesn't just have a great story for the boys like this episode, it has 3, and 2 for the adults. And "I DESIRE.... MACARONI PICTURES AND POPCORN NECKLACES!!!!"
My first episode was butters bottom bitch. Kind of crazy I still watched more after that B story lol.
Bruh mine was 'big gay Als big gay boat ride'

@ the exact same thing happened to me
I'm a Colorado native and I went to Casa Bonita for a friend's birthday in the late 80's. It was really fun, but the most memorable part for me was the wishing well
Same. I remember the first time I went to Casa Bonita. I’ll never forget seeing the gorilla man walking around and seeing the cliff jumpers
i went as a kid too, i remember the atmosphere and decor the most tbh, as well as the Sopaipillas
It's truly the most magical place ever wedged into a strip mall next to an orthodontist.
Did you ever go back now that Matt and Trey bought it? I heard it got entirely remodeled because the food sucked or something.
@gc8568 I haven't made it back, but I do plan on going at some point
Three points here,
One. It never dawned on me until now that Cartman is so shortsighted, he never had a plan for what to do after Cassa Bonita with butters. He just didn’t think of it.

Butters: I can’t survive an apocalypse, my parents will ground me!
It’s wild to think that this show could have never had Butters in it and without him South Park just wouldn’t be South Park. Butters steals every scene he is in and it’s all thanks to their animation director.
Butters didn't have a speaking role until the middle of season 3. Before that, he was just a background character.
What about pip? He's kinda similar to butters
@@jettSki-123Pip is Butters if Butters was English and therefore gay and bad

❤😊
Heard the waitlist is insane
it's magical. Was the food any good since they bought it? Matt and Trey said they wanted to improve the menu. It used to be AWFUL but that was kind of special part of the experience.
@@johns8364 the food is good 👍 and the experience is worth it! 🫡
I think Cartman didn’t like how being left out felt. I think we see Cartman decided to be unhinged instead of experiencing genuine human emotion
he 100% did this for himself and the ending confirmed it when he said losing all of his friends was worth it
No dude. If they'd all decided "you go to Casa Bonita yourself, we need to look for Butters" he'd have probably enjoyed it more. See also: Cartmanland.
@ I don’t disagree but I don’t think it makes my point any less true. If he had just experienced it by himself while everyone else searched, we still would have seen Cartman rejecting genuine human emotion. Albeit in a less funny way
Scott Tenerman must die is definitely the most infamous, but this one is certainly up there.
Overrated tbh. Good sure, but it's all chock-factor.
@axelkjell2320 I'm not saying it's my favorite episode, but it is definitely the most infamous.
No one you said “this one”
@@hometown.5841 I don't know what this means...
@@axelkjell2320I really like it, because it was where I feel like cartman really hit his stride
It's interesting the boys are worried about Butters' disappearance in this episode when just two seasons ago in "Butters' Very Own Episode" Butters was missing, presumed dead, and at the end when he came home Stan casually asked "Butters was missing?" unaware he was ever absent.
Everything changed once Butters invited Kyle to his last birthday party

Hi Slush i came here from the Bloom analysis on Ceric artman and want to thank you for being a human 💖
The montage of Cartmen calling Kyle a Jew and the musical segment always makes me chuckle.
Blooms sent me here for quality content. I got what i came for. Subbed. Thanks.
13:29 Butters is making the same face he makes on school picture day that gets him grounded in the butt-faced people episode.
I think his eyes are open in the school picture episode
@@skeletonbuyingpealts7134 no

Cartman is single-minded.

Definitely one of the greatest South Park episodes of all time. Loved the analysis, dude.
The repopulate the earth joke gets me every time lol

I love the way you ended the video with the last clip of the ep, your outro music made it better lol
I don't know if this was intentional, but when Cartman jumps off the waterfall I think it was a reference to The Fugitive.
Cartman’s tears were cried for one
I love how at the end Eric gets to cliff dive into the pool just like he wanted.
18:40 "BUTTERS NOOOOOOO"
I actually lost it, that was perfect
fleetwood mac playing in the background is amazinng

Honestly if I ever visit US again, I gotta go to casa bonita
If you’re in the Colorado National Guard and re-enlist or extend you get a free meal at Casa Bonita
Casa Bonita fue lo mas worth it que any other episodios :'3

you get an extra thumbs up for the megaman music in the background ^^
Iconic from the second it aired!
Nice Dr. Wily music drop...for the tension!
I'd say the imagination land episode is also pretty iconic
came here from blooms this is literal quality subscribedddd
Your one of the most underrated cartoon content creators around 💯
This video is perfect bc it's about just as long as the real episode
Eric is a unfeeling sociopath
Tell me about it.
Nothing like flash man and metal man bgm to make me struggle between listening to you or the music!
😅
This video is longer than the episode
4:45 SNEAKY like a JEW!
Jesus fucking christ.
15:27 chernobyl diaries be like:
Man you deserve more subscribers you’re awesome dude.🙏🧔🏻♀️
Im so lucky my older brother just happened to catch the first episode of southpark and yeah it's my all time favorite.
Casa Bonita is legit my favorite episode
13:44 That's Annie. You can tell because Tweek wears green and his shirt isn't buttoned properly.
Its fun and food in a festive atmosphere, whats not to love?
the only bad part of this episode is that cartman once again got what he wanted, and even though he did have to suffer the consequence of his actions, we never get to see it
What’s the bgm you used around 3:00? I know the track but I forgot its name and it’s killing me rn
Nvm, it’s the mvc2 network theme
18:38 that is a perfect representation of Cartman
It’s in my top 10, but “Make Love, Not Warcraft” will always be my #1.
the one with the chili con carnival is 100% the best episode
Never disrespect “For No One” again, it’s excellent!
Here’s the thing you’re 100% right this puts a lot of pressure on avowed but just like everything if they deliver an excellent product nobody cares about the context
Casa Bonita, Casa Bonita!
Food and fun and a festive atmosphere!
I dont remember but my first episode was either the one where Barbara Streisand turned into a giant robot or Ike got circumcised.
Cartman is expert manipulator, he knew that if he acted defeated, Kyle would lower his guard down and slip information that he could use to his benefit. He didn't do it from beginning because he knew Kyle wouldn't tell him anything, so everything including beating up Jimmy was all part of his plan
MOST OF YALL DONT KNOW HOW FIRE THAT BEATLES JOKE WAS 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
7:16 always sends me
Depending on the time the episode aired I think the gas station is a reference to the red rocket gas station from fallout or maybe just a quinsidence
Is "infamous" becoming the new "literally"? I'm confused, why is the "Perfect" episode of South Park, infamous (known for having a bad quality)?
Ingmar Bergman who? Exactly.
Lmao I used to have this on dvd. South Park was awesome as a kid. I didn’t understand a lot of things I just knew it wasn’t for kids lol.
This makes me want to go to Casa Bonita
"he can see his thought bubbles? We need to study him in the lab!"
Wait, you guys are not seeing your thoughts?
beatles reference made me smile
Tenerman an love not war are definitely up there in infamy
cartman is also surprisingly good at turning garbage into cartman, or so a dietition might observe
its been 6 days since u uploaded this and how you have a TON of replays XDD
I feel like the Meteor Shower trilogy needs to get mentioned. Three episodes all focusing on different things all happening at once. Kenny at Jewbilee has to be my favorite SP episode.
4:45 as Cartman would say "sneaky like a JEW".
Casa Bonita is my favorite episode
Make Love, Not Warcraft was my first episode to SP! And thanks to that episode, it turned me into a WoW junkie(:
Well kid you are going to Juve and you lost all your friends, was it worth it? Cartman. Totally!
Anyone else notice the 8 bit version of Fleetwood Mac in the background?
interestingly enough this is also one of your better videos.. and i don't know if that's due to your love towards this episode, or out of spite to those white-thumbnail content farms (or both)
Haha I love the 8bit or 12bit music
I think this whole season was pretty great. This is just ond of the maby awesome season 7 episodes
Can you do an analysis on awesome o 2000
I also really love this episode
I also really love this episode
8:25 this was 100% him faking it. He was playing off the trope from movies or TV where you ger rewarded for figuring out the lesson
I do love this episode with all my heart but for me you just cant beat the "warcraft" episode a love it
juvenile for ONLY a week?
aw heck yeah
Comment for the purpose of engagement.
Do we just forget that Mr hankey exists
My first episode, was the first episode. When it aired. I’m old.
Butters is such a dum dum though. South Park is definitely in my top 3 best series out there.
The Red Rocket episode was my first.
And second was the Anti Christ
the most south park episode is the one that focus on Cartman, cause cartman is south park. but now it's also randy
Its not an animation error. Cartmans mouth is a black hole absorbing the chip.
I just realized he knocked jimmy out
