[...] Zonday chatted with us about being a part of web celeb roundups like the Weezer Pork and Beans video as well as having his head explode on South Park (he thinks they got his voice wrong). [...]

How can you possibly give this a 'meh'? Must be blatant trolling for comments.

this wrtier is an idiot. the whole point of the episode was about the WGA and how the internet can't guarantee money. and how was it bland? they had a bunch of viral people kill each other. this episode was wway better than the first 3 episodes.

and jow if you don't watch south park then stfu. you don't know what you're talking about and south park began before 1998. it didn't start on the internet idiot.

Where to begin. First of all there was chaos and confusion this morning on Tay's channel. I was forced to watch that whole show twice to convince myself that there was no way Tay would have consented to the use of his image. That wasn't his voice either. It was crude, violent and yes funny. But it's a shame that those South Park hypocrites are making money when the YouTubers whose images were used aren't and several clips of the show were immediately pulled from YouTube by Viacom. I don't watch the show, but is it true that South Park started on the internet??

Wow, this entire "analysis" could not be more off the mark.

I thought it was hilarious. And if you watch the whole episode, it actually does get quite a bit more South Park-ish, particularly when Tay Zonday's head explodes. :) And I think your point above about "monetized views" fits right in with the overall theme. Ahh, I love me some South Park.

Kind of funny how this video clip is not available in Canada through southparkstudios.com.

Man, being Canadian would be fun. All that sweet health care. But I digress

The episode itself was fine (the "WGA" acronym was a nice touch). I just wish they could have done more with the Meme folk is all.
