12. The Show Isn’t as Uncaring as You Might Think

In 2009, Eric Cartman was set to have an adventure in which he went off to Somalia to become a pirate (the whole thing ends with an assault by Seal Team 6). The same week the episode was set to air, a similar situation occurred in which a boat captain was taken hostage by Somali pirates. Parker and Stone chose to delay the show’s air date in order to avoid the appearance of mocking the harrowing situation.
