Overview

South Park is a 30 minute adult animated show on Comedy Central that centers on four foul-mouthed 4th graders and the strange happenings in their small Colorado town -- from alien abductions to invasions by genetically altered turkeys! Despite the bizarre situations, much of the show’s humor is character-driven and even the wildest occurrences are rooted in a logical perspective.

The South Park phenomenon has been on-going since 1997 and continues to be one of the most-watched programs on cable tv.

South Park products have been top sellers in most key licensed categories, including apparel, plush and home video. As South Park enters 2005, look for aggressive expansion into new product categories and increased retail activity.
