I liked it. But if Kyle couldn't be a pirate because Jews can't be pirates, why did he take Ike? Maybe beause Ike is really Canadian.

I didn't really find this one all that great. Seems like it was made almost too quickly to take advantage of current events, and wasn't that funny. The Susan Boyle line was funny, but if you blinked, you missed it.

When Cartman was turning the pirates into "real" pirates, I was rolling!

Yeah, my impression was that it was such a no-brainer, they didn't bother thinking about it.

It was funny, but how could it not be? It was also pretty easy and obvious. It could have been great.

I dug it. Loved the song, and the joke about the French surrendering immediately. Not the best SP episode ever, but very enjoyable.

I laughed out loud at the Susan Boyle joke.

I thought it was pretty funny. Maybe the best of the season. I like it when the kids do kid things and it gets way exaggerated like this. It's like they were just being kids and nobody quite understood that.

BTW, who is Susan Boyle?

"and then we take a 49 hour bus ride to Mogadishu"

He makes it sound so easy.

I cracked up at that line. I remember watching Michael Palin's Pole to Pole and watching him track across Africa in a bus. It seemed every few miles they had to get out and push because the bus either broke down, or they got caught in a mud bog, or some other thing. i was picturing that happening in those 49 hours LOL

In "Britain's Got Talent" a 47-year old lady, who doesn't look like she'd be a good singer, ends up having a great voice.

It takes Eric Cartman to take over a French ship and become captain of the Somalian pirates. I loved it.

.

I was trying to figure out the timeline of the travel plus all the pirating but then realized this was a cartoon and reality doesnt apply. But the show is so realistic sometimes you forget :D

The precision of the 'non white' shooting was jack bauer impressive
