Michael Jackson episode - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

I know South Park has already done a couple of pettiphier episodes, but I think with what is going on in the news, it would be hilarous to see a South Park episode in which Michael Jackson appears. I would love to see how Matt and Trey protrey this guy. I think it would be right up there with Barbara Strisand.

No it wouldn't. Do you have any idea how predictable that would be?

South Park has done some predictable episodes in the past about current events. Remember Osham Bin Laden, Ellian Gonzales, 2000 election, who did not see those spoofs coming?, but they were still hilarous.

Of course nothing beats Mega Steisand.

I see Michael Jackson jokes and spoofs coming a mile away on late night tv and it is still funny.

Yes, but the things that made those funny was that the only other show to do spoofs or jokes was SNL, but now every other show is doing unfunny, unoriginal Jackson jokes. And the ones on Late Night TV arn't funny. They are so old and predictable. It's more funny that people actually find them funny.

South Park is funny. Michael Jackson can be funny if done right. South Park doing a Michael Jackson spoof would be funny.

Trey and Matt also have ideas that has not been done before and make others say why didn't we think of that, like how boring Phil Collins music is, David Blaine starting a cult, or John Edwards being a fraud and a duce.

In addition to the predictable but still funnier then the rest peddifer jokes, I would add the following jokes, I would reffer to the state of his carrer and how Michael Jackson is not as a big star as he once was. Something like MJ indrocing himself to the boys "Hi I am Michael Jackson." And the Boys respond "Never heard of you." Cartman saying "Are you related to Allan Jackson?" Like they did when they meet Babs. And add a joke about how Cheif wanted or did f*** Janet and/or Latoya Jackson. Maybe even having three way with the Jackson sisters. And there you have a freash apporach to making fun of Michael Jackson.

A.) South Park is tired now anyway, it doesn't need any help getting more boring
B.) And everybody knows who Micheal Jackson is, even younger kids.
C.) EVERYONE knew John Edwards is a fake, and everyone was already making fun of Phil Collins, and the David Blaine episode was one of the most unfunny episodes ever. All South Park does is beat old jokes into the ground, or at least that is all they do anymore.

Thre is a MJ episode. It is called the Jeffersons in season 8. Michael is referred to as Mr. Jefferson but his "son" Blanket nearly introduced him as Michael Jackson & MJ said that his name was Jefferson.

*Plot Spoiler*

MJ sleeps with the boys & blanket & nearly kisses Cartman!

That was one of the few episodes where Kenny speaks and is understood.

MJ was certainly one of the best celebrity parodies

MJ was really good
