If you are DVD challenged, you can still own lots of great episodes of South Park on videotape. Following are the best South Park episodes available on VHS.
2. Christmas in South Park
This video is perfect for Christmas. But, I don't recommend watching it with Granny. The first episode is "Mr. Hankey's Christmas Classic," where the whole cast sings a collection of hilarious Christmas songs. Next is "Merry Christmas, Charlie Manson," when Cartman's uncle breaks out of jail with Charles Manson. A "mockumentary" is also thrown in.
3. Timmy
The episodes about Timmy can arguably be described as the funniest South Park episodes. Here, three Timmy-centric shows are packaged together. The first episode has Timmy mistakenly diagnosed with Attention Deficit Disorder. Next, Timmy saves the class from traveling to another time. Finally, Timmy makes friends with an unusual turkey named Gobbles.
5. The Best of South Park
These two episodes set the satirical tone of South Park. I love these episodes because the boys really shine. In "Rainforest Schmainforest," the boys take a trip to the rainforest with the "Getting Gay with Kids" group. In "Chinpoko Mon," the boys are sucked into a plot devised by Japanese toy makers. "Chinpoko Mon" even scored Matt Stone and Trey Park an Emmy nomination.
6. South Park Volumes 1 - 3
The first tape includes the classic "Cartman Gets an Anal Probe" and "Volcano," a parody of Hollywood movies and hunting. Then the sweet and controversial episode titled "Big Gay Al's Big Gay Boat Ride" and "Weight Gain 4000" are on the second tape. Tape 3 wraps up the collection with "An Elephant Makes Love to a Pig," about genetic cloning, and "Death," which pokes fun at euthanasia and, ahem, offensive television.
7. South Park Volumes 4 - 6
More great episodes! Watch "Damien," "Mecha-Streisand" and "Tom's Rhinoplasty," as well as the Halloween, Thanksgiving, and holiday specials. These plots and characters defined South Park's early days. Laugh again at Cartman's Hitler costume, the evil Barbra Streisand, poor Sally Struthers and much more.
8. South Park Volumes 7 - 9
This video set has a sort of romantic theme. "Cartman's Mom Is a Dirty Slut" and "Cartman's Mom Is Still a Dirty Slut" has Cartman trying to find his father. In "Chicken Lover," someone is "making love" with chickens. "Ike's Wee Wee" takes a look at circumcision. "Conjoined Fetus Lady" shows the school nurse attached to a dead fetus. Did I say romantic? Maybe I should say the episodes are reproductive-centric.
9. South Park Volumes 10 - 12
Perfect for die-hard fans. Start with "Flashbacks," an episode retracing many of the early classic episodes. Next up is the Sundance Film Festival parody, "Chef's Salty Chocolate Balls." Then watch the terribly gross "Chicken Pox." This set also includes "Roger Ebert Should Lay Off the Fatty Foods" and "Clubhouses."
