Corrections to Previous Reviews, September 9, 2000
This review is from: South Park - Christmas in South Park (DVD)
The two previous reviews for this DVD are incorrect. Christmas in South will contain three episodes of the series: "Mr. Hankey's Christmas Classics", "Merry Christmas Charlie Manson", and "ChinpokoMon." It also contains a British documentary called "Goin' Down to South Park." Enjoy!

Not All It's Cracked Up to Be, December 8, 2000
This review is from: South Park - Christmas in South Park (DVD)
I bought this DVD thinking it would have the classic "Mr. Hankey" episode of South Park. It didn't. With all the space available on DVD's, I don't see why they couldn't have made a better, more comprehensive Xmas in South Park edition. It would have been nice, too, if they had included the infamous "Santa vs. Jesus" short from years ago, too, but I suppose that's asking too much.
What you do get is a hilarious montage of South Park characters singing Christmas & Hannakah songs that are of course brilliant. My personal favorites are the Dradle number, which is just as good as any number from "Bigger, Longer, & Uncut," Cartman singing "O Holy Night," and Jesus and Santa crooning Christmas carols at a nightclub.
You also get the serviceable "Merry Christmas Charlie Manson," which introduces us to Cartman's dysfunctional family in Nebraska and the funny but misplaced "Chimpokomon" episode (misplaced because other than the fact that it's about toys, it has nothing at all to do with Christmas.
All in all, you get some yuks, but I was disappointed because with all the excellent South Park Christmas material out there I've seen, I was expecting much, much better.

The Best South Park DVD, December 5, 2000
This review is from: South Park - Christmas in South Park (DVD)
If you only buyone South Park DVD, this is the on to buy! I also reccommend Volume 1. On this DVD you get, Mr. Hanky's Christmas Classics, Merry Christmas Charili Manson, Chinpokomon (one of my favorites),and a great documentary that hasTrey Parker and Matt Stone talking about several South Park topics from their hot tub. The great documentary is worth the price o f the DVD alone. It shows many classic clips from the show, and almost the whole original short, "The Spirit of Christmas". Any South Park fan's DVD collection won't be complete with out this great DVD. I also reccomend picking up the Mr. Hanky's Christmas Classics CD when you buy this DVD also.
