Ya, the live action thing was probably mocking the whole genre of "dramatic re-enacement" faux reality tv you see now. Between the mocking of reality tv and group tour activities it had enough not to make it a "one joke" themed episode.

Plus there were funny side gags, the whole herpes/cold sore thing, the Challenger shot when remember awful shuttle experiences, etc.

Wow, I have no idea at what part people who liked this episode laughed.

I'm always more positive then average itt but this was like funnybot for me. Almost turned it off.

Edit: Well ok. you guys explained it. Weird that such a imo EXTREMELY boring episode has both people saying top 10 off all time and worst ever.

My dubbing ****ed up so turned it off after 10 mins. I found it pretty funny so far, one of the more solid eps. Been on tours like that far too many times.

I can easily understand someone not liking it, but WOAT, that's a joke. South Park has had 228 episodes now, some of which have been pretty damn atrocious. I mean are we forgetting Pip? Licecapades? A million little fibers?

Of course pretty much every episode that comes out there is ridiculous over the top hyperbole around how great or how terrible it is.

Loved the mocking of those over the top "reality" shows

If only this wasnt the 3rd time in 2seasons, or is 4th?

+photos photos photos

Yes, they nailed the group tour stuff but everyone that has ever been on one could have written all 9 of those jokes.

The only thing I didn't like was the last 3/4 of the live stuff. It was pretty damn funny at first, but it got really old.

I laughed a ton at the kids reactions and Carman screaming from across the zip.

Yeah my only real criticism was that the live action part went on too long.

Maybe I would have enjoyed it more if I would have been familiar with the type of show they were mocking but as it is I didn't care for it. Also, tour groups are an efficient and cost effective way to experience new things.

"Long story short" it was pretty bad, not WOAT though.

I've watched a ton of "I Shouldn't Be Alive" and done a ton of traveling. So I laughed a bit. Nothing great, nothing bad. I enjoyed it.

This was an awful, awful episode. Probably bottom 5 of all time.

I don't get anyone saying this is best or worst OAT.

Some funny parts, but the repeat gag with the horse tour group right after the zipline was redundant. Live action "reenactment" was a clever touch, but dragged out too long. They really nailed what can make tour groups so excruciating, but I think they were trying too hard to stretch it into a full episode which made it boring in spots. I didn't turn it off, but my attention wandered while I was watching.

Not a top or bottom 5 episode, IMO. Definitely not GOAT; there are easily 15-20 better episodes.

Love how diet Double Dew had 1/2 the sugar and calories of regular Double Dew, which has twice the sugar and calories of regular Dew.

Pro tip: don't do group tours unless you absolutely have to/the group is pretty much guaranteed to consist of people similar to you.

I actually thought it was pretty good, classic SP with the kids doing kid things. The live action stuff in Act III was a little weird though. The names for Mr. Hanky's transportation was A+.

This exactly. Agree that it's not anywhere near GOAT though. Bar is pretty damn high on GOAT SP episodes.

Maybe the did this so you would get the full tour group experience while watching the episode.
