They have had Les Mis in the show before, though.

I like your imperturbable perspicacity.

EXTREMELY funny,,,it was the first time I've ever seen this show. Great send-up of the entire scene...and why was I surprised when Spiderman caused a casualty?

LOVED IT
Seriously, my 2 fag hags and I were going bat-sh1t crazy. Especially when Sondheim and Schwartz popped up on our screens.
And the WICKED sequences...amazing.

Sondheim being a "bro" was hysterical. Loved the tie-in to the subplot with Shelley, too.

Hilarious! I'd love to hear what Sondhiem, Schwartz, & ALW have to say about it.

Loved it too!!!

I wonder what non-musical loving South Park fans thought of it. Seeing Sondheim in the show made my day... Now it's time to finish my presentation.

I like your imperturbable perspicacity.

Well they've already got Sondheim in their corner after the movie so I'm sure he just loved this.

When Spider-Man made his appearance I nearly died of laughter. I also loved their little nod to BOM at the end.

I liked that they actually animated in accurate costumes for the Godspell revival. Great episode.

Ok, as a lone grumbly voice in the wilderness who loathed just about everything about BOM, my opinion may not matter much on this thread of devout Parker-Stone acolytes. But...

Did anyone else find it strange that so much of the comedy revolved around an unspoken fact: at least 2 of the 4 composers who now call eachother Bro, hang out in Hooters and want chicks to give them bl*wjobs are of course OUT GAY MEN. Nothing funnier I guess, than seeing Sondheim behave like the cliche straight doofuses that populate South Park.

And for a friggin Broadway musical takeoff, why can't Robert Lopez and Parker/Stone bother to make the damn lyrics actually rhyme for once? just sayin'.

I loved the lyrics from the Wicked scenes..."No one cares about wicked people!"

It made me sad for married heterosexual couples. Did you ever notice how few married couples on TV even like each other?

I guess I'll be another (sort of) dissenting voice. I've never been much of a South Park fan,even though I've watched a few episodes and tried to like it because so many people I know seem to love it. I watched this episode because of the Broadway theme. I guess I'd find it funnier if I was a regular SP fan. It did have moments, but for the most part I found it kind of one-note--basically just the same joke over and over. I do get the idea that part of the humor was about seeing Sondheim and the other composers portrayed in a way that is completely unlike their real selves, but again it was all so one-note. Is saying "b-job" over and over really supposed to be that hilarious? I thought the subplot with the daughter and her vegan "boyfriend" was actually funnier than the main plot.

^I'm totally with you, Beagle! (Curious to know what your reaction to Book of Mormon was. They go hand in hand for me.)

Charlesjguiteau, I haven't heard much of Book of Mormon, mostly because I knew it was by the South Park guys and I don't really "get" their humor (which just seems very juvenile to me) a lot of the time. I did see the performance on the Tony Awards and was underwhelmed, so I didn't check it out any further. I will probably listen to the whole cast album at some point just so I can be better informed, but I'm not really all that interested in it at the moment.

"Why don't you call it The Woman in White?" LOL!

Absolutely adore "South Park" and The Book of Mormon. Thought this was a tremendously weak episode.
