Gunjaman5000 30 Posted August 14, 2007 Simpsons is the best comedy of the 20th, and arguably the 21st, centuries South park's better, less mainstream and conventional than the Simpsons. Would the Simpsons ever have done Uncle f****r? I think not. I'm not sure I follow you Tempus, are you saying South Park is better because they say f**k and poo?

Banshees Scream 110 Posted August 14, 2007 The Simpsons is no doubt one of the most influential shows in history. It gave cartoons an attitude. South Park on the other hand wasn't only influential but South Park is politics. The creators express their opinions through the voices of Eric Cartman and Stan Marsh and the list goes on. Brilliant. I think both shows had a five star effect on modern comedy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Guest Posted August 14, 2007 Phil Rizzuto, New York Yankee legend and Hall of Famer, has died. http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2007/base...zuto/index.html For all those non-Americans saying, "Who?", he's referenced in an episode of Seinfeld when the head of a doll of him gets buried under some tarmac in New York city, leading to inevitable high jinks and hilarity [Edit to add] And d'oh from me for forgetting, but he's the one announcing the "baseball game" during Meat Loaf's Paradise by the Dashboard Light. He also has been picked on the DDP as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cowboy Ronnie 78 Posted August 20, 2007 Leona Helmsley, the "Queen of Mean", has died http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/20358637/ She's probably about as famous outside the US as Tammy Faye Bakker Messener, and there are some similarities to their respective life stories, so it's sort of fitting they died within a few weeks of each other.

They both had the same make-up consultant by the looks of things, but Helmsley was just a bitch whereas Messner was at least quite a nice person but it was her husband at the time who was the one behind the fraud that was commited Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
