Amazon.co.uk Review
There is nothing in South Park's seventh season to offend Tom Cruise (nothing about Scientology, at any rate; that will come in season 9). However, Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck, Rob Reiner, the Queer Eye guys, Christopher Reeve (!), war supporters and anti-war protesters, and Mormons, do not get off so easy. But, "Who cares?" as the townspeople sing in "I'm a Little Bit Country." What matters is that with this particular episode, South Park attained the precious, syndication-ready 100-episode mark! Another milestone: "Raisins," in which Wendy breaks up with Stan, who falls under the influence of the "Goth kids" ("If you want to be one of the non-comformists, all you have to do is dress just like us and listen to the same music we do"). Even by South Park standards, season 7 is pretty hardcore. In "Christian Rock Hard," Cartman is so determined to attain platinum album status before Kyle and his band that he forms a Christian rock group. The band's repertoire makes Tom Lehrer's once-scandalous "Vatican Rag" sound like "Oh, Happy Day." But mostly, South Park creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone take Cheney-like potshots at pop-culture notables. In "South Park Is Gay!", we discover what is really behind the "metrosexual" phenomenon and the true identity of the Queer Eye for the Straight Guy quartet. In "Butt Out," Rob Reiner is portrayed as a corpulent goo-filled "fascist" willing to the sanction murder (of Cartman) to further his anti-"Big Tobacco" agenda. As you can guess from the title, "Fat Butt and Pancake Head" is a merciless deconstruction of "Bennifer," as Cartman's Jennifer Lopez hand puppet dethrones the real thing, and attracts the amorous attention of Ben Affleck. "All About Mormons" anticipates the Scientology episode, "Trapped in the Closet" (not included here, and if lawyers have anything to say about it, might not be included in a season 9 set, either) with a straight-faced musical dramatization of the Joseph Smith story. "Everyone thought we were making stuff up to be funny," Parker and Stone relate in their mini commentary (optional for each episode). "But we're not. We're not making this stuff up in this show." Which is perhaps why the episode "Cancelled," which posits that Earth exists only as reality-TV fodder for aliens, doesn't seem so farfetched. --Donald Liebenson

 Fantastic season - one of the best April 30, 2008

This is one of my personal favourite seasons, in which the show still continues its trend of excellence which had the bar raised in series 5. Series seven continues more of the controversial in "Krazy cripples", the episode that caused outrage for the use of Christopher Reeve and his `sick' attempt at renewing his super powers. Also excellent social commentry episodes such as "South Park is Gay" which is a satire on the metro-sexual trend and "Christain Rock Hard" which is a genius look at the whole illegal music download situation but the big laughs come from Cartman who starts his own christian rock band. I look forward to season eight next, but the bar is soon going to drop on this excellent standard.
 Both orginal and return were faulty on disc 2! June 27, 2008

I am writing this review to see if anyone else has had this problem? I pre ordered this season like I have all south park boxsets and when it arrived I prepared myself for an evenings view. There was a disc read error on the christian rock episode making it unplayable.
I returned it and top marks to amazon for a swift return being sent. Sadly the replacement has the exact same fault and Amazon will now not provide me with a 2nd replacement :(
The series itself is Excellent! ***** and I would throurally recommend it but I would like to know whats wrong with all the DVDs Amazon? I really want the series :(

This season is fantastic i was going to order it from amazon but then i read about disk two having an error problem so i bought this season in HMV and non of the disks had anything wrong with them so for those who bought this from amazon but couldn't see disk two trust me it is great, so if you want this season badly buy it in a dvd shop like i did don't risk buying it off the internet.And the last thing am going to say is if you see this you will die laughing.

this is classic South Park humour at it's dirty BEST!!!
i didn't have a faulty at all on my discs and all played perfectly.
Cartman and Butters are by far my favourite characters:)
eppy guide-
Cancelled-5/5-absolutely hysterical...a taco that craps ice-cream:)it's hilarious,after all this time EARTH is a tv show.
Crazy Kripples-5/5-extremely controversial episode but it is very silly and hilarious.
Toilet Paper-5/5-a classic,the boys get their own back on an art teacher by T.P'ing her house,look out for Silence of the Lambs references.
a lil' bit country-4/5-a very good episode to celebrate the big 100.
Fat butt and pancake head-5/5-my all time favourite episode...it's hilarious...you have to see it to witness how unbelievable it is...j-lo as a hand(cartmans hand)i love the music videos too.
lil crime stoppers-5/5-hysterical...enough said.
Red man's greed-4/5-a very good episode that is very OTT but all the more for it i suppose when South Park is lost to indians...i mean native americans.
South Park is Gay!-5/5-another one of my favourite episodes...i had no idea that the fab five were crab people!!!
Christian rock hard-5/5-Cartman aims to go Platinum when making a hysterical album aimed at religion...another one of South Parks greates episodes.
Grey Dawn-5/5-a classic...its sooooooooo funny old people who keep killing people everytime they drive...and they attempt to take over the town...:)que laughs.
Casa Bonita-5/5-another fave of mine,Cartman isn't invited to Kyles birthday at Casa Bonita and is replaced by Butters...so Cartman gets revenge on poor Butters...its hilarious.
all about the mormons-4/5-a very fun episode although a tad offensive its loads of fun.
Butt out-5/5-the boys learn to stop smoking.
Raisins-3/5-at first seems pointless but it is still fun and there are some laughs to be had here.
its Christmas in Canada-5/5-a great finale that sees the boys spend the christmas season in Canada.
