response: Hah.  It's had great success since it debuted in 1997.   Out of the programs on basic cable, it earns the highest ratings, and consistently so.
original_response: That's for sure! It came out in 1997, and done very well since. Like you said, high ratings.
history: Have you ever watched South Park before? My husband and boys like it. I have watched it a little with them. I can't say I have.  It's an adult animated sitcom, right?  Matt Stone and Trey Parker created it, then Brian Graden developed it for the TV network Comedy Central. It is really funny. There are some parts not appropriate for children though. That's very true. It does have profanity and there is a dark humor to it, so usually for mature audiences. I think that's why I never really got into it. I could do without all the cursing. It has gotten some high ratings though. Oh okay, I hear you.  I gather in the show four boys have bizarre adventures.  The main characters are named Kenny McCormick, Eric Cartman, Kyle Broflovski, and Stan Marsh. They are some cute little kids, but do some really crazy things.
knowledge: It debuted in August 1997 with great success, consistently earning the highest ratings of any basic cable program.
