Correction: This isn't a show goof, it's a character goof: the announcer made an honest mistake.

Correction: Simple character mistake.

Lummie

Correction: This episode is all a dream, it's all from one persons subconscious who is making it up in their mind as they go along.

Correction: Many people, like Stan's parents, have bought a new carpet and changed it again at a later date.

Cartman Joins NAMBLA - S4-E5

Corrected entry: When Cartman goes to see Mephisto to ask him to make him a friend, Mephisto tells him that genetic engineering has not yet advanced to the stage where he can just make people. But in "An Elephant Makes Loves To A Pig", Mephisto easily made a giant clone of Stan.

Correction: First of all that was cloning, not engineering completely new people. And second of all, the Stan clone wasn't exactly a huge success. So he's quite right when he says that the technology isn't advanced enough yet.

Andreas[DK]

Correction: No not really. His voice just sounds a little different in the stomach because a bit of reverb was added to his voice. (To simulate that he is speaking in a great hall or in this case a stomach.)

Andreas[DK]

Correction: This is not trivia, rather an obvious observation.

Correction: We are never told how many ninja stars Kenny has bought, only that EVEN he can afford them at $1.99.

Soylent Purple

Show generally

Corrected entry: For maybe the first four seasons, Stand and Kyle's voices stayed the same, after season four though, they seemed to have gotten deeper. Couldn't have been because of puberty because if that was the case Cartman's voice would have changed also.

Correction: Obviously you are not aware of the fact that many guys can experience puberty and deeper voices at a later age than others. Aside from that fact, this mistake is more built on opinion rather than any fact. I have watched South Park for many years and there is no example to prove this observation.

Lummie

Correction: That is the point. He strongly believes in something, and doesn't believe what his mother is telling him. He might as well have said "I guess you're going to tell me that I don't exist either."

Pink Eye - S1-E8

Corrected entry: When Kyle cuts Kenny in half, there is a skull behind him, how did the zombie head become nothing but a skull so fast, it was only cut off seconds ago.

Sol Parker

Correction: Considering that it was Halloween night, that skull probably isn't real and was placed in the cemetery as a prop for the holiday.

Christian Rock Hard - S7-E9

Corrected entry: In the scene in which they are taking the photo for the album cover, Butters is on the left, Token is on the right. However, when the lady at the Christian festival is buying the CD, it shows a close-up and Butters is on the right and Token is on the left.

Correction: First of all, as we can see, they take several pictures to use as potential album covers (including one where we just see their heads together, which is never seen again). It is possible that the boys moved around and changed places for a second or third photo, which was later chosen to be their album cover. Secondly, even if they had only taken one photograph standing in those specific poses, with a good photo editing program it would take about 5 seconds to make Token and Butters switch places, if they decided it would look better that way.

Death - S1-E7

Corrected entry: When Death is watching Terrance and Phillip, they are wearing astronaut suits with the American Flag on them. But since Terrance and Phillip are Canadian, shouldn't the Canadian Flag be present on their suits instead of the American one?

Correction: Not if they are doing a skit show where they play the part of American astronauts. They are comedians, after all.

Stupid Spoiled Whore Video Playset - S8-E12

Corrected entry: Paris Hilton is defeated in the "Whore Off" by Mr. Slave. Soon she meets the Frog King who tells her that she must travel through Mr. Slave's intestine or she will surely die. The problem is that when the hamster Lemmiwinks freed himself in Season Six, episode 14, all of Mr. Slave's "friends" were freed with him, including the Frog King. Why did they come back?

Correction: Well, seeing how all of Lemmiwinks' "helpers" inside Mr. Slave were spiritual, it is impossible to say for certain what their exact limitations and powers were. One possible explanation is that the Frog King really did leave mr. Slave, but chose to reappear inside him when needed to help others who would be trapped there. Or it is possible that they had gained the freedom to leave, but never actually did so. It basically boils down to a character decision, which is not a mistake unless you specifically know their motivations.

Twotall

Correction: Character mistake, not a show mistake.

Twotall

Correction: They were caught off guard and had no training in dodging bullets (they are Santa's reindeer, after all).

Up the Down Steroid - S8-E2

Corrected entry: Timmy and Jimmy would not have competed in the same heats in the Special Olympics because they have different disabilities. Timmy would have competed in the wheelchair division, while Jimmy would have competed in the Down Syndrome division.

Correction: Jimmy has Cerebral Palsy, not Downs Syndrome.

Show generally

Corrected entry: In the school classroom the alphabet above the chalkboard is all screwed up with the alphabet in capitals being normal but the lower case letters are all jumbled up.

Tobin OReilly

Correction: Yes, that's true, but it is an ongoing joke. How can the kids learn if even the alphabet is all screwed up? As Stan said himself, "We just fake it to shut him up."

Cartman's Mom is Still a Dirty Slut (2) - S2-E2

Corrected entry: When Mrs. Cartman goes in to ask for an abortion, the person at the counter claims that Cartman, at eight years old, is in the "fortieth trimester." Since a trimester is about three months long, 40 would mean about 10 years since conception, or a child of about 9 years and 3 months. An eight-year-old, plus three trimesters of development, would actually be in the thirty-fifth trimester.

Kathy Tjarks

Correction: It was a rough estimation.

Correction: In "My Future Self n' Me", Jimmy was telling a joke. This is obvious because among other things, if he'd actually taken ecstasy then he wouldn't have been afraid to touch the marijuana. Jimmy presumably heard the "in her vagina" joke somewhere and just recognized it'd be funny in that situation.

More trivia for South Park

Answer: Scottsdale is a well-liked destination for fun; resorts and spas, outdoor activities like hiking and rock climbing, golfing, cultural events, and a bouncy nightlife. It's generally considered an upbeat and convivial place, exactly the sort of environment the gloomy Goth kids would consider to be awful.
