YMMV / South Park S 4 E 8 Something You Can Do With Your Finger

Go To

  • Harsher in Hindsight: At one point, the girls say that they would be much more excited about meeting Matt Lauer than the new boy band that the boys are trying to start. Then in 2017, Lauer was fired from his position at NBC due to his long history of sexual harassment towards his female coworkers. More concerning is that the girls' mouth animations make their screams look more frightened than excited, and the screaming also sounded like they were horrified, too.
  • Unintentional Period Piece: The parody of boy bands, with the boys' silly outfits and specific boy band roles, is specifically based off the boy bands popular in the 1990s and early 2000s, especially *NSYNC. Additionally, when Cartman tries to book a gig in the mall, the manager compares him to the pop star Tiffany (who became famous playing in American malls), who gained fame in the late 1980s and 1990s and faded entirely from the music scene by the 2000s.
