Boycott backfires: South Park gets record audience
Last Updated Thu, 23 Feb 2006 15:01:13 EST

An appeal from the Catholic Church for New Zealanders to boycott an
episode of South Park has resulted in a record audience there for the
controversial cartoon.
The "Bloody Mary" episode of South Park drew more than six times the
normal audience, New Zealand broadcaster TV Works announced Thursday.
The episode, which aired Wednesday night, was seen by 210,000 viewers,
according to Rick Friesen, the broadcaster's chief operating officer.
"I expected a bit of a rise, but not that much," he told the
Associated Press.
In the past month, he said, an average South Park episode typically
draws about 32,500 viewers to the network's C4 youth channel.
During Wednesday night's broadcast, however, more than 350 people
protested outside the TV Works headquarters in Auckland.
The protest centred on a statue of the Virgin Mary, with participants
— clutching Bibles and religious icons — singing hymns, reciting the
rosary and offering other prayers.
A Catholic priest who led the protesters in prayer asked God to
enlighten those responsible for the cartoon "and strengthen them to
see how much harm they can do."
Last weekend, New Zealand's Roman Catholic bishops issued a letter
urging parishioners to boycott the channel and its sponsors. The
Federation of Islamic Associations of New Zealand also protested the
episode and said it was deeply offensive.
The South Park episode revolves around a nearby town's discovery that
a statue of the Virgin Mary has begun bleeding. The event is dubbed a
miracle and the people flock to see the statue, including Pope
Benedict XVI, who ultimately pronounces that the statue is
menstruating.

In December, the Catholic League for Religious and Civil Rights
condemned the episode's debut in the U.S.
The satirical, Emmy Award-winning South Park was created by Matt Stone
and Trey Parker, who write, produce and provide voices for the show.
The provocative cartoon, about a group of foul-mouthed fourth graders
living in the fictional small town of South Park, Colo., lampoons
current events and famous figures, but Stone and Parker have said that
many of the regular characters are based on people they knew while
growing up in Colorado.
South Park airs on Comedy Central in the U.S. and the Comedy Network
in Canada.
New Zealand's TV Works is a subsidiary of CanWest MediaWorks, which is
majority owned by Winnipeg-based CanWest Global Communications.
Last summer, New Zealand's Catholic Church called for a boycott of the
C4 youth channel for airing another cartoon series: the BBC-produced
Popetown, a satire about life in the Vatican.

Boycott backfires: South Park gets record audience
Oh, it didn't backfire. It worked. To those that saw the true valuelessness of
the episode, it turned them away. To those that already threw value away, I
need not say more. To those just interested, it was just that - to see what the
issue was.
You lose, loser.

You lose, loser.
So have you written yet to the Comedy Channel urging them to rerun the
episode in the US? After all, the first time it aired here, no one
knew it was going to be anything special so only the regular viewers
saw it. I think the Catholic Church needs to get behind this thing -
demand that Comedy Channel rerun it continuously and order every
Catholic to watch it. Maybe they could rotate in Life of Brian and
Stigmata to really educate the flock.
You would support that, right duke?

That wouldn't encourage Catholics to view it. It would only cause the
hell-bound to certify their passage.
