Never have seen it, so I don't know what the chinese find so irritating about it.
South park hasn't been banned there from the start? That's actually surprising.
As for hollywood or NBA trying to stay on the nice list... There are 300m ppl in the states to market to, there are 300m plus a billion in china. Even if half are essentially agrarian serfs and half the rest aren't interested, there are still more! Follow the money.
This is often quoted, but the fact remains that the Chinese government isn't stupid enough to allow an American company to roll in and hoover up the equivalent of billions of dollars in profits off of their [STRIKE]citizens[/STRIKE] slaves. China has all kinds of ways of both sucking the profit away while the Americans are there, and then once the Chinese equivalents have [STRIKE]learned[/STRIKE] stolen all they can they give the foreign corp the boot and take their assets to fund the new Chinese equivalent.
It's funny when I was young southpark wasn't allowed in my house, yet its social commentary and satire makes it one of the smartest shows on tv. Matt and Trey are modern Mark Twains and I love it.
They might actually be better as Mark Twain wasn't willing to publish some of his best stuff until after he died.
I was already in my 40's when it came out. Used to watch it faithfully! I drifted away though and don't even know when it's on anymore.
Wednesday evenings it 'drops' on comedy central, but I dont know anyone who watches it on cable, it comes up for free right after it airs on southparkstudio.com
I am genuinely surprised it wasn't banned long ago. SP is hilarious and the social commentary almost always on point. They skewer everyone.

The only time I recall them balking was the Mohammed episode. Wasn’t happy about that, this week was epic though and made up for it.
