| Q. - Is any one there? | A. - Just the voice in your head. | |
| June 20, 2006 | ||
| Q. - are you dom | A. - The "Document Object Model?" To our knowledge, we are not... we just use it. | |
| Q. - Why are there so few "Manbearpig" images? It skips from "Towelie" to "TSST! | A. - Fear not, we've got more coming in the next few weeks. | |
| Q. - Is "That's My Bush" ever coming to DVD? | A. - It certainly is; the cast recorded commentary for the DVD not too long ago. | It should have been out two years ago though. |
| June 19, 2006 | ||
| Q. - What is Jimmy's full name? Swanson? Valmer? | A. - It depends on how Trey is feeling that day. | |
| June 18, 2006 | ||
| Q. - What will episode #1008 be named? | A. - It hasn't been written yet, but when an episode title is chosen, we'll let you know. | |
| Q. - With the rise of remakes, will the Spirit of Christmas ever be remade into a full length episode? | A. - I'm guessing you haven't seen the episode "Free Hat." | |
| June 17, 2006 | ||
| Q. - Why was season 10 split? | A. - This isn't the first season to be split, and it probably won't be the last. THe season is split in order to give everyone a break from the non-stop craziness that goes into making a run of shows. | Been like that from the beginning of the show, really. |
| June 16, 2006 | ||
| Q. - Can I go on this website? | A. - Unless your mother tells you otherwise, sure. | |
| Q. - Why isn't "The Spirit of Christmas" in the Episode Guide? | A. - Well, technically, it's not an episode... | |
| June 15, 2006 | ||
| Q. - When are you guys going to update the Production Blog? | A. - Oh, uh, I don't know, maybe when the show is BACK IN PRODUCTION? | |

| Q. - Will there be any more South Park games in the future? | A. - We are working on some neat games you can play for free here on the website. | |
| Q. - If it only takes Matt and Trey one week to make an entire episode from scratch, why do we only see 14 a year? | A. - Although an episode is produced in a week, there are several weeks of "pre-planning" for each run of seven episodes. Additionally, they work around the clock during that week to make the episode -- if they made many more during the year, they might die of exhaustion. You don't want that... do you? | |
| Q. - I've noticed that a lot of episodes lately seem animal-friendly (e.g., Free Willzyx, Fun With Veal). Are any of you vegetarian? | A. - Didn't you see what we said about vegetarians in Fun With Veal? | |

| Q. - Can we look forward to any new season 10 episodes? | A. - Yes! Seven more are coming beginning in October. | |

I see it listed, and I want to know, how can I achieve EIEIO-ness? | A. - Keith Nesson, the EIEIO, has posted an entry in the Production Blog and he talks a little bit about his title. Check it out! | |
| May 8, 2006 | ||
| Q. - Can Cartman see his wee if he's standing? | A. - As excited as everyone here is about Nintendo's new video game console (it's spelled Wii, by the way, not Wee), no one has one yet. Not even Cartman. | |
| Q. - In the episode "Tsst", the scene where Cartman changes reminded me of a movie. I can't remember which one... | A. - Altered States, perhaps? | |
| May 7, 2006 | ||

Last season, they renewed their contract for three more seasons (this one and two more). | |

| April 4, 2006 | ||
| Q. - I understand the "2 * 100 + 1 = episode 201" formula, but what I don't understand is why TV shows use said formula. Can't you just call it 21... season two, episode one? | A. - The problem with that is that there are often more than nine or ten episodes in a season. Or should we use hexadecimal? | |
| Q. - South Park has grown more and more visually intricate over the last several seasons, particularly backgrounds of scenes. I know the technology has always been there, so why now? | A. - If you don't grow through the years, you get bored and you bore your audience. We have a talented staff with great equipment -- we're challenging both. | |
| Q. - When does season 8 come out on DVD? | A. - October! | |
| April 2, 2006 | ||

| March 28, 2006 | ||
| Q. - We didn't get "Bloody Mary" shown here in Australia! Was the episode not sent to us? | A. - It was sent; as for why it wasn't shown, well, perhaps you should ask your local broadcaster. | |
| March 25, 2006 | ||
| Q. - This might be a stupid question, but I'm a little behind on the times. In the most recent episode, it starts out with a "previously on South Park." Was there really an episode where Chef takes off, or was that just a gag for this episode? | A. - It was just a gag, so to speak -- the referenced episode does not exist. | |
| March 24, 2006 | ||
