The Secrets of
"Prehistoric Ice Man"

The Aussie character's show is based on "THE CROCODILE HUNTER", starring Steve and Terri Irwin, on the Discovery Channel. The ironic thing is that the Aussie was going to jam his thumb up "Steve"'s ass. Steve and Terri have done shows on Australia's crocodiles and on America's deadliest rattle snakes.

It turns out that Steve Irwin, The Crocodile Hunter, really does stick his finger into a lower orfice of crocodiles--their equivalent of the genital and/or anal opening--to determine their gender, as he has shown in an episode of his show. The "jyaam moy thomb in 'is botthole" thing wasn't entirely made up after all, but is actually based on reality.

Dude, I saw this in a movie once. The old cavemen get frozen, and then people discover them and make them their caveman friends. - the closest match I have is Encino Man (1992), in which two guys in Encino, CA., find a frozen cave man while they dig in their own back yard. They thaw him out and introduce him to the early 1990's. He becomes the new student and then becomes very popular, eclipsing the two who found him. Pauly Shore stars.

Cartman is talking about Grease, but calls Sandra Dee French. In the movie, though, Sandra Dee comes from not France, but - Australia.

Ace of Base had the following singles in the U.S.:
1993 - All That She Wants
1994 - The Sign
Both of these came out before 1996, so Mephesto, who had these two songs playing in his ranch, erred in the music department. What he should have had playing was "Beautiful Life."

Terrance and Phillip now has two air times: 3 p.m. and 8 p.m.

A first for South Park: frontal nudity.

Cartman's scratches move up his cheek and combine into one.

Barbrady is no longer a one-man police force.

For a split second, when Stan and Kyle fight for the last time, Stan's hat is missing, and he looks bald. He might have the same kind of hair Swanson has.

The A-113 on the helicopter is a reference to the famous CalArts classroom where many animators and cartoonist studied from.

People have said that the Outback Guy's thumb can be seen flying off to the lower right of the screen as the helicopter chops him up. If you haven't seen it, here it is

At least Des Moines got some good exposure:
It is really two years behind the rest of the U.S.?
