Make Love, Not Warcraft - S10-E8

Corrected entry: In the beginning, as Stan looks back to his computer after calling Randy "R-tard", the name of his character (seen on the upper-left hand corner of the screen) is 'Staniscool". But when the men from Blizzard come to give the Sword of a Thousand Truths to Stan, they refer to Stan's character as "Loves2spooge".

Thunderlord

Correction: One can have multiple characters with a single account.

Knever

The List - S11-E14

Corrected entry: When Stan and Wendy learn that Kyle is going to burn down the school, the shot changes to thunder and lightning in the sky. Thunder and lightning do not occur in winter.

darhug

Correction: Thunder and lightning can occur at anytime of year anywhere on the planet.

The Losing Edge - S9-E5

Corrected entry: When Randy and Bat Dad are fighting, the referees run over saying that if they don't stop fighting, their team will be disqualified. But Randy is seen fighting in all the other Little League games, so why was South Park not disqualified then?

Correction: Because the refs finally had enough of Randy fighting with everyone, and threaten to disqualify the team.

rswarrior

Correction: How would that be a mistake? He is wearing pink glasses. When he was getting into drugs he started changing things in relation to his appearance.

Lummie

Correction: A character mistake on the part of the announcer.

Grey Dawn - S7-E10

Corrected entry: When all the seniors in town are having the meeting at the community centre, there is about 20 of them. But later on, when all the seniors are lining up at the DMV to have their licences taken away, there is a lot more of them.

Correction: That only means not all the seniors showed up for the meeting and there is no mistake in that. Their licenses being taken away would have been law and the seniors would know they have to hand in their licenses.

Erection Day - S9-E7

Corrected entry: Jimmy says that he has spent all of his money on the prostitute. But then he exits the restaurant, gets directly into a cab, and later pays the cab driver in cash.

DavidK93

Correction: Jimmy was just exaggerating when he says he had spent all his money, as he was in the restaurant before having paid and how would he have paid there if he HAD spent all his money?

Correction: According to http://www.southparkstudios.com/fans/findthealien/ aliens are hidden in most episodes. You are supposed to find all of them and then go on the south park website enter their locations. Since they are hidden in most episodes and this was announced it is not really trivia.

Chickenlover - S2-E4

Corrected entry: Every time we see Cartman as a police officer, regardless of the time of day or direction that Cartman is facing, the same image reflects in Cartman's sunglasses.

Correction: This does not have to be pointed out as being deliberate. This is trivia at best (and probably too obvious even for that).

Correction: Unwashed eggs don't need to be refrigerated - in the UK at least, they're sold and stored at room temperature. If these eggs were freshly laid they'd last just fine.

Jon Sandys

Correction: With all the scientific improbabilities & impossibilities that occur within this series, it is very doubtful.

Chickenlover - S2-E4

Corrected entry: In this episode, they indicate that Officer Barbrady is the only policeman in South Park. But in most other episodes, for example in "Majorine" when Butters is going to jump off the roof, there are many police officers there, not just Barbrady.

Correction: The episode you mentioned "Marjorine" was a more recent episode while the episode with Barbrady being supposedly the only policeman was one of the first episodes of South Park. We can deduce that more officers were hired between the two episodes. Even if there were other episodes when more officers were shown, the reasons could vary from Barbrady needing additional help to more people moving to the town.

Lummie

Correction: Cartman was sitting/leaning across the table.

Correction: Nobody throughout the entire series notices Mrs. Cartman is an hermaphrodite without giving her a thorough medical examination. Obviously, she has had corrective surgery, or, her hermaphrodism is not readily visible or discernible.

Fantastic Easter Special - S11-E5

Corrected entry: When Mr. Marsh is being taken away outside the lodge, the leader of the ninjas asks him who he gave the rabbit to. When Marsh won't tell, the man says, "Search the area, the boy [Stan] could not have gotten far." But seconds earlier, he did not know that Stan had the rabbit.

Correction: It's not hard to figure out that if you raid a building looking for something, one person escapes, and you don't find the object in the building, then the escapee has the object. He could also just want Stan to use as a bargaining tool.

Conjoined Fetus Lady - S2-E5

Corrected entry: When the Chinese dodgeball team member throws the ball at Kenny, it sends Kenny into the wall face first- killing him. When everyone but Pip is left, you can see that Kenny's body is still stuck in the wall, but has been turned around with him facing away from the wall.

BillyBlake

Correction: Kenny is hit in the face with the dodgeball and the impact forces him into the wall, he is facing away from the wall as he was when he was hit with the ball. His body does not change the way it is facing from when Kenny is struck with the ball throughout the remainder of the episode.

Raisins - S7-E14

Corrected entry: When Kyle is lying in bed in some shots one half of his face is in shadow and in other shots the other side is. (00:04:10)

jle

Correction: First of all I'm assuming it's Stan you mean. Second of all South Park always makes jokes about the amature animation (eg. in Season 6 episode 'Free Hat').

Correction: I've already corrected this once and it is back with no changes: There could be many reasons for a Jewish family to be in a church. It could have been "Friendship Day" and were someone's guests. They could have stopped in to see the Christian service.

Rlvlk

Correction: Character mistake- the woman who identified Batdad as Tom Nelson simply mixed him up with someone else. On the verge of unlikely, given that he is somewhat of a celebrity figure in Denver, but still entirely possible.

Correction: The whole town of South Park is destroyed in almost every episode and rebuilt in time for the next one. It's entirely likely that after getting rid of Wall-Mart, they remade Stark's Pond.

Captain Defenestrator

The Super Best Friends - S5-E3

Corrected entry: When everyone is in Washington, Jesus instructs the Mormon leader to freeze the water to stop the suicides. In the next shot of the water, it's liquid again.

Correction: Well the narrator did say that it was "later at the exact same location" in the shot after it was turned to ice, so it was obviously after the ice had melted.

Terrance: Wow, Scott really hates us Phillip.
Phillip: Yes, perhaps he's homophobic.
Terrance: But we're not gay, Phillip.
Phillip: We're not?

Margaritaville - S13-E3

Question: Can someone explain the subplot with the Margaritaville and Stan going to a bunch of places trying to return it? It's really confusing. And this sounds stupid, but in a recession, wouldn't spending money be bad?

Answer: Essentially Stan was trying to return the blender that his dad, Randy, had bought because he knew his parents couldn't afford the extra debt. The blender, which represented mortgage-backed securities, had been bought on payment plan, meaning Randy had to make monthly payments, with interest, on something that wasn't essential. The episode represented the recession that was occurring at the time, including the housing bubble and mortgage crisis going on, so there's a lot going on. However, the payment plan (which is to say the debt) had been sold to another company by the store that sold Randy the blender. (To explain why, because of the recession, the store needed cash on hand, and they would only be getting a little money each month, if Randy paid his bill. So the store sells the debt to a company who gives the store the money upfront. Think of the J.G. Wentworth commercials, "I have a structured settlement, but I need cash now".) Because the store sold the debt, in ridiculous fashion, Stan had to return the blender to the company that bought the debt, although they too sold the debt to another company. Finally he gets to the U.S. treasury who tells him his blender is worth $90 trillion (again a ridiculous exaggeration) meaning that the debt owed is greater than the product is worth and to deride the way government agencies set up their budgets (which requires much more complex economic lessons). Kyle's whole point was people shouldn't fear the economy or see it as a vengeful being, but continue to spend and live as they normally do. Economically speaking, not spending money during a recession creates a longer lasting recession, and to solve a recession, people should spend money, although people and businesses shouldn't acquire debt during a recession because interest rates are higher. But on a personal level, individuals are fearful of losing their jobs during a recession, so they save money in case that should happen. But again, this is complex economics lesson.
