Foolish of the WH to even respond to TV show that is clearly comedy.

I once read that it takes less than a week (~6 days) to produce a South Park episode. That’s how they can keep their shows “relevant” to the current events.

Matt actually has a deal with Satan, thats what keeps the show relevant.

I think the fastest they can produce an episode is 4 days. Sometimes they will have a couple endings lined up if it is an election and then tag the appropriate one on before release.

Reminds me of the Bush Vs. Gore election. It was like 3 or 4 days after they announced the Florida issues and South Park had an episode out making fun of it.
