South Park: The Complete Sixth Season arrives at retail today as a three-disc set featuring all 17 episodes of Comedy Central’s hugely popular adult cartoon about life in a small Colorado town.
South Park centers on Stan, Kyle, Cartman and Kenny, foul-mouthed tykes whose well-meaning schemes get them into all kinds of trouble and expose hidden truths about their sleepy little town. The series first aired in 1997 and remains the highest-rated series on Comedy Central nine seasons later. It has even garnered Emmy nominations for its adult social satire sugar-coated with crude and silly animation. Comedy Central recently renewed the show for three more years, giving fans at least 42 new episodes to look forward to.
Released by Paramount Home Entertainment, the season 6 DVD runs 374 minutes and includes mini audio commentaries on all episodes by series creators and directors Matt Stone and Trey Parker. Fans can pick it up for around $49.99.
Also hitting disc today is Tom and Jerry: The Fast and the Furry, a new animated feature that has the cat-and-mouse duo involved in a wild car race that takes them around the world. Included on the disc are a featurette on the old days of cartoon sound design and a set-top game titled Race to the Finish. The Warner Home Video release carries a suggested retail price of $19.98.
