In light of the other video about mohammed in Southpark. Here is the original clip which was aired un-edited years ago when the whole controversy about displaying mohammend in any media wasn't on the radar.

To be clear, this aired years ago and didn't cause any sort of blip on the radar.

The second parter to the 200ths episode was really great. There was a segment about 2-3 mins long they COMPLETELY bleeped out because I suspect they said nothing but Muhammad. Unlike part 1, they bleeped every instance of Muhammad.

Mohammed can lick a festering camel's nutsack whats been bakin' in the frost, rather,his followers who did nothing but sully his name,misinterpret bullshit,and fuck up the next 100 generations.

Goddamn you Mohammed!!!

Is it me, or wasn't that meant to be the "joke"?

Loads of bleeps, loads of censored signs, it wasn't bleeped out or censored, it was written and performed that way as part of the joke.

I didn't actually like the 1st or 2nd part very much, i'd rank it as one of my least favourite since south park became good.

If you go to southparkstudios.com and try to stream episode 201 it pops up a message with the following...

We Apologize that South Park Studios cannot stream Episode 201 at this time.

After we delivered the show, and prior to broadcast, Comedy Central placed numerous additional audio bleeps throughout the episode. We do not have network approval to stream our original version of the show.

We will bring you a version of 201 as soon as we can.



So I get the impression that at least the bleeped Mohammeds weren't their idea.

So this is getting some media spot light. Found an interesting comment on slashdot about the issue

"For those of you that are unaware, the concern among Muslims about depicting Muhammad is based on a few hadith that warn against doing so to prevent idolatry. The worry is that any depiction could become the focus of worship, and the depiction itself could take the place of what it represents.

Or, in other words, radical Muslims are fearful that a large faction of the faithful will splinter off and form a new denomination based on the worship of an episode of South Park. They're so anxious over this possibility, these groups have threatened to suborn the murder of Matt Stone & Trey Parker by dispatching roving death squads.

Don't click away to a calendar app—I assure you, it is 2010 and this is actually happening. (And I understand why some of you with mod points might choose "Funny" for this post, which is totally fine, but I promise everyone that this is as unbiased an accounting of the facts as I find myself able to give.)

By the way, if you happen to be a techno-savvy hard-line Muslim reading this post, I have one question for you: shouldn't your first problem, before Matt & Trey, be with the second most populous denomination of Islam, the Shi'a, who apparently have no problem with depictions of Muhammad? Is it off-base for me to ask that you sort this out amongst yourselves before requiring the non-believers to follow your religious edicts under threat of death?"

This was released on South Park Studios tonight. According to this, Kyle's last speech didn't even mention Muhammad. True or not, I don't know, but that's their story.

A Statement from Matt and Trey
In the 14 years we've been doing South Park we have never done a show that we couldn't stand behind. We delivered our version of the show to Comedy Central and they made a determination to alter the episode. It wasn't some meta-joke on our part. Comedy Central added the bleeps. In fact, Kyle's customary final speech was about intimidation and fear. It didn't mention Muhammad at all but it got bleeped too. We'll be back next week with a whole new show about something completely different and we'll see what happens to it.

Exactly. I can't help but feel that Mr. PBUH would be pretty embarrassed by these wads. Oh well, thems the breaks when you go starting a religion. Or rehashing one as the case may be.

I can't find the embed code for the Daily Show last night, but Jon Stewart nailed it again:

Man John, that is pretty brave, much respect.

Considering that most violence committed by Muslims is against other Muslims, and that there is a great deal of factional conflict between the various Muslim groups, I'm not sure this final point is very good.
The same people who might be offended by a depiction of Muhammad are ALREADY killing other Muslims for taking different viewpoints.

So saying "Don't kill Matt and Trey, continue to kill other Muslims as you've been doing!" seems pretty messed up.

Or, in other words, radical Muslims are fearful that a large faction of the faithful will splinter off and form a new denomination based on the worship of an episode of South Park.


I also found this part to be a very absurd statement. This is obviously NOT what a radical Muslim is going to be thinking if he goes out and tries to kill Matt and Trey. Hopefully it was not written seriously, because it outright mocks and humiliates the principle behind the opposition to depictions of Muhammad.
