Agreed, my friends are all obsessed with ancient aliens so I was glad to see it mocked.

This past weekend I was in a wedding. The service took place in a Greek Orthodox Church. This church payed millions of dollars over the last few years to have its walls and dome ceiling painted with beautiful artwork. It truly is a spectacular site to behold.
As I was looking at the masterful artwork all around me, I noticed an odd bit. There is a picture of what appears to be Abraham pointing upwards. If you trace his finger slightly past the point where he should be pointed there is a circular object that has motion lines. It looks like a flying saucer. In fact, I am not sure that it could be anything else.
A group of us was talking about it and we have come to the conclusion that the object couldn't be mistaken for any other thing.
Sadly, no one else in the group watches Southpark.

the Thanksgiving episode was entertaining, but it felt like they were trying to put too much into a 30 minute slot.

The Thanksgiving episode definitely could have been a 2 parter.

Oh this was a great episode. "Mysterion" comforting Kenny's sister and standing up for her was the sweetest thing I think I have ever seen on the show. Kenny is now officially my favorite character.

I knew Kenny had a brother. Where did the sister come from?
And yes, awesome episode.

I really loved the agnostic foster parents, for some reason.

The stuff with Mysterion was great, the Agnostics were funny, I couldn't STAND the guy from Child Services. He was obnoxious.
Also, it really bugged me that Cartman's songs didn't have musical accompaniment. I really wish they had gone all out.

Wasn't he supposed to be? Or did I miss your point? I hated him too, I just think that was the object of the character.

If it was the objective, it was well met. I really wanted him to meet Kenny's fate.

There's a difference between funny annoying and annoying annoying. The Jackoffasaurus or whatever was funny annoying. This guy was just a waste of screen time.

I wonder if they'll do anything with the giant bird thing at the end of the eipsode, or just let that go like they do all of Kenny's deaths.
Well save the previous Mysterion episodes

Ah we're gonna have to disagree on this then. I'm of the exact opposite mindset. (Although the Jackovasaur episode was still quite funny.)

I thought he was funny myself. I found myself laughing at his Penn State jokes and the banter between him and Cartman.

A little late, but Kenny even from the beginning has always been the nicest and most caring of the 4. He's even sacrificed himself for his friends (though when you come back to life in the morning, that's a bit less meaningful).
