- Steve Kroft talks to Trey Parker and Matt Stone, the creators of Comedy Central's "South Park." Now the disrespectful duo also have the biggest hit on Broadway, the musical comedy "The Book Of Mormon."
These two are the greatest satirists of our time. They mock everyone ruthlessly. That takes 'tegrity.
Phil Hendrie's actually the greatest. He's so great that Trey Parker and Matt Stone are fans of HIM and had him do voices on Team America.
their work is satirical and obscene, not subversive
tegrity farm lol
mmmm I 'member
They're our version of Mark Twain
"Are there lines that you won't cross?"
(Simultaneously) "No"

@@cankhovich1796 they crossed it several times, the channel refused to
@@cankhovich1796 that was corporate pressure, not their decision.
@@cankhovich1796
That's not a line they would consider having crossed.
@@thomasb7347 correct. They would've done given the opportunity.
If we didn’t have Trey Parker and Matt Stone
Comedy Central wouldn’t even exist
Don't forget Chapel Show
And key and peele
You wouldn't have those with out comedy central. i think you missed the point
South Park was on CC’s first shoes tho, he clearly said when CC was first starting up as a small group they paid South Park to make a mini series that turned in to the greatest animated comedy ever.
@Poppa Jacks no it wasn't
Whoever dismisses south park as immature doesn't know squat about the show. There is so much social commentary going on in every episode, it's nuts.
maturity is subjective, the show is very immature in the traditional sense of the word. But seeing that you wrote this comment 7 years ago i'm guessing you would agree.
Muurt Nelson have you watched the show? Sounds like you haven’t.
I love the behind scenes and them talking about the show when u buy the seasons it's jus as good as the show very smart guys a dynamic duo
Breaking down the dogmatic nature of religion-Mormon play. Now politics have become the new age of dogmatic religion.....At least we have South Park to fall back on.
Well... cartman jerking off a dog is pretty immature humor. There's some gross out humor/obscene remarks in the show that are just unfunny, but for the most part it's genius.
Seriously, that Scientology episode is one of the most epic things ever on television.
AND SO I PULLED OUT MY GUN!
John Travolta scene always gets me 😭😭😂
Even the end credits was funny... genius!
“Wait you don’t actually believe all this right ???”
I thought both the Scientology one and the Mormon one were hilarious.
"What if Tom Cruise is *literally* in a closet?" I love that the legal team may have accidentally made that joke way funnier than it would have been otherwise.
"Dad! Tom Cruise won't come out of the closet!"
So glad these guys exist.
Makes dealing with life that much easier
Indeed!
Vampirno Stoch
Damn right. Whenever I'm bored or feeling down, South Park is the perfect medicine.
Infinity Ripper I ship them
Cat Santos stop
biggest bromance in the world
Ivan Ševo best
Totally, if someone ever asks me about an example of soulmates I would say Trey Parker and Matt Stone relation ships sums perfectly what a soulmate means to be.
You're at 666 likes, I can't disrupt that. Shout out Satan
Most productive too.
Did you know that 30% of broships didn't survive the past year of COVID.
I'm so fucking jealous of how talented these guys are.
Well what if Tom Cruise was actually in a closet? These guys are just brilliant.
Jezza Us right that is what made it more funny
What if he was a fudge packer
Tom Cruise might be gay? That's strange. For all these years I've thought of him as that straight actor.
And I love that later they thought, “Well ok what if he is actually packing fudge though?” 😂🤣🤣
Even when I'm not in the mood, I'm never disappointed by a Southpark episode I haven't seen yet because there's always something unbelievably weird in it.
Did you change that opinion based on the last three seasons?
@@MrJackhammer51 no. I like that they added politics. It makes it so much funnier. The safe space episode was the best ever
@@bornfree8073 the continued story concept was a mistake and I hope they go back to individual episodes. politics was always a topic.
@@MrJackhammer51 it won't get over it
Jonathan go watch the new eps buddy youll like them guy
I saw the show live in Baltimore, and it was absolutely fantastic! I find it odd how many people say "Who would've guessed that the best show on Broadway would be the one created by the South Park duo?" ANYBODY familiar with Trey and Matt's work immediately knew it was going to be great.
Cody dude I saw it in Baltimore two years ago too! It was awesome. I've seen 6 plays before and it was by far the best. I went in and there were a bunch of older people and thought I was gonna see alot of people walk out. At the end there were grandma's cheering and clapping it was awesome to see
To be fair I'm familiar with their work but nothing about Broadway plays so I have no clue what a 'modern normal' play would look like? I have heard of Urinetown though.
I'm not a Broadway kind of person but as soon as I had the opportunity to see the play in London I took it in a heartbeat. Had a fantastic time and was laughing throughout. I only went to see it because I knew Matt and Trey wrote it and I wasn't disappointed. Only the best from my favorite comedy duo
@@RilkeanKisses for sure! It actually opened me up to Broadway shows in general too.
lol there’s already a song in almost every south park episode
"Is there lines you wont cross?"
*both at exact same time not looking at each other* " um, no."
The crazy part about that, too, is that they both took a few seconds to think about it. Thought about it for an equal amount of time and then said the same answer at the same time.
Either they've been asked that so much that they've got the timing down or they're just best friends who've slowly morphed into eachother lol. That's happened to me with one of my old best friends
*"Let's do a show were kids talk the way kids talk."*
Honestly as a kid that was probably the biggest draw
@The Dawg
I was quoting it because I Love the fact that he said it man.
I Love Matt Stone and Trey Parker. And South Park is one of the few shows of it's kind that I am genuinely emotionally attached to.
@Fish Boy I wouldn't even say that writers don't understand, but if a child is in a TV show, it's usually one meant for kids to watch so they can have the kids cursing usually.
I lost it at John Travolta
Chingalling oh ma gad! The best travolta impression ever I cry every time I hear it. And then I pull out my gun!
Holy crap it was on point. I cried
Chingalling SAAAAAANNNDDDDYYY OHMAGAH
Dead😂
hahhahah me too!!! lol their voices, writing etc is sooo good! Always! the key is they write for themselves. market research, second guessing, too much time, trying to please everyone ruins comedy.
These guys changed my fucking life
they're pretty great but i fail to see how that could be possible
It's a show so if South Park of all shows changed your life, u may need some help in the future
Devon Hill ***** They changed bc this cartoon changes my humor every day in any situation, so respect it.
so what you're trying to say is that you understand cynicism and sarcasm now?
***** Yes, they make a critical humor. deal with it
I went to film school with these two guys. One thing I will always remember is there was some end of school year awards program...Trey, of course, won some big award for something...and he stood up from his chair in the crowd and gave this very sincere speech to his parents thanking them.
I would never have had the maturity and vulnerability to do that in college, it kind of shocked me at the time.
Damn good piece of journalism
Raoul Duke Steve Kroft is a good journalist
How, it's about entertainment
honestly the guy narrating annoys me...like bro sometimes they are fictional boys and are little jerks..its not that serious or dramatic as he makes it sound smdh...
Lol! "Are there lines you wouldn't cross?" "No." HAHAHA. BIG SURPRISE! It's why I love these guys.
"The Oscar nominated song; Blame Canada"
lol
If “eyes of a child” was up for the Oscar; they’d be Academy Award winners.
and it should've won. "You'll Be In My Heart" is generic. Good but generic. Blame Canada is a smart song
6 days to make an episode! I know the animation is simple but that's incredible!
***** Check out the behind the scenes from them called 6 Days to Air, shows all the crazy amount of work they do in a week
+lol wut I'm surprised they're not dead.
***** Right, must be a lot of stress doing all that
***** Trey said something in another interview about how his mum will often show up and see him exhausted, pale, shaking, red eyes etc. We should all be thankful they keep entertaining us.
***** I agree, they are comedic geniuses & I'm grateful for what they do. Looking forward to future seasons, I'm not even sure when the next season of South Park is.
Matt and Trey are living legends
Funny that you can watch Tiger Woods and his wife beat the hell out of each other, but have to bleep out the word "shit".
What's your point?
Not any more...
@@Hugatree1 this is from 4 years ago lol
@@Hugatree1 the point is u can watch a couple domestically abuse eachother with weapons but not hear the word sbit
Violence is perfectly fine, as long as you don't say any naughty words.
You can tell he’s genuinely interested in talking to/learning about the duo. It’s nice to see a journalist who isn’t so PC that he can appreciate the satirical absurdity/value of South Park
The two best famous people ever born. So glad they found each other. I can not image a world with out them and South Park.
"Tom it's John Travolta, Tom you gotta come out the closet Oh mY gOd"
Wish this was longer. These guys are so talented I could watch hours of someone just talking about em.....
I can tell Kyle is based on Matt :D
No kidding, everyone knows that.
Ebony-Ann and Stan is based on Trey
I KNEW IT
You know youve seen too much south park when you know what episode they were recording for
Amen. I’ve turned it into a little game, I see how fast I can figure out the episode.
Whoever did the John travolta voice. Brilliant
Pretty sure it was Trey
I like how the interviewer seems to be happy about interviewing them and not asking them questions that would make them uncomfortable.
Its 2020 and South Park is still the best show on television. These guys are transcendental talents.
It's always so weird hearing Trey talk irl. You can totally hear the stan voice.
And Randy
South park is one of a kind. I hope it lasts for their life time. It's amazing
They didn't even talk about baseket ball
MishuTaste or not even a single Team America mention smh
I'm sure they'd like to forget about it
They NEVER do. It never gets mentioned in their credits or is ever talked about. Ive never seen it yet. Love that movie.
@@bellmeisterful They actually reference it in the south park episode about The Passion. Something about Stan and Kenny getting their movie ticket money back after watching Baseketball.
@@Nepomniachtchi_Austin Oh wow...yeah I think that sounds familiar. Ha
And this is why “SOUTH PARK”
is LOVED!!!
THEY MAKE FUN OF EVERY BODY AND THEY ARENT RIGHT OR LEFT!!!
😂🤣😂🤣😂☠️💀☠️☠️
IM GLAD THESE MAN EXIST!!
me too dude. me too
They have both said they are conservatives
@@nathanlafontaine8901 they were messing around lol. and from the content of the show they def not
You can tell Steve Kroft really enjoyed being around these guys. When Parker was talking about All in the Family, Kroft couldn't even keep the smile off his face.
There probably the most creative to actors/artists/comedians i have ever known or will ever know.. Incredible the influence South Park has had on the world.
You're a walking red flag
Interviewer: are there lines that you won't cross?
Trey and Matt: mmm no, no we haven't found one yet.
God I love these guys.
It's funny seeing Seth has some things in common with Trey and Matt since they found inspiration for "All In The Family/Archie Bucker" for their shows.
Genius. Last champions of free speech.
These 2 are some real heroes to me. Best duo in the TV show business.
"Is there lines that you wont cross?"
Exactly at the same time:
"mhhh, no."
3:34, well synced!
I got my politics from South Park
Love that name
+Max Stirner Thanks!
*****
I considered using it myself, until now,
+Max Stirner feel free to, if youtube will let you
+Max Stirner feel free to, if youtube will let you
8:44 "Scatalogical as well as philosophical."
Brilliant words.
Why?
Matt and Trey are Geniuses :P
South Park, The Boondocks, The Simpsons, even to an extent Family Guy, these are more than just shows.
Don't forget Rick and Morty.
Rick and Morty is the best new cartoon on television but give it a few years and its fan base will grow like crazy.
cr0nosphere I know. I have a thing for shows like Rick and Morty, South Park, and Simpsons.
Lil'C 105
just make sure to add Adventure Time to that list.
cr0nosphere Speaking of Adventure Time, (I used to watch it) the voice actor of the lemon guy is Justin Roiland, who is one of the creatures of Rick and Morty :D
11:34 Why their writing and comedy works so well.
Book of Mormon is better than Hamilton.
Come at me.
Agreed!
@Michael Ward - just curious, ... why?
I totally agree. I love the music in Hamilton, but overall The Book of Mormon is much more entertaining.
I love their John Travolta impression "Oh maH gAh!"
"We couldn't have a show about Archie Buner in the early 90s because things back then were too PC."
Oh, you sweet, simple summer children, if only you could look into the future 30 years later...
I still think that “Orgasmo” was one of their best work in film!
VictheBrick Gaming dude when my friend and I found that I was probably 8th grade maybe one lower but it had us dying laughing especially knowing they created South Park
Eh...I thought Baseketball was much better myself.
"every bit as profane as it is profound"
Well made piece, defied my expectations, good work 60 minutes
That’s not a partnership that’s a brotherhood
Smart choosing an older interviewer. Makes me feel like everyone can appreciate fun comedy.
South Park is one of the greatest shows ever to be put on television.
What these two have done is incredible. The fact that they inked one of the most lucrative deals in entertainment history showed how forward thinking they were. They signed a deal where they get 50% of any digital revenue generated from the show. Viacom didn’t even flinch on it lol but they wanted it. Fast forward to mid ‘10s and Viacom begged them to readjust but of course they didn’t budge but they did move on merchandise which Viacom get like 90% of lol cool. They’ve inked like $1.75B in streaming figures in the last 5 years not including what they get from online revenue. It’s just crazy. Not including Book of Mormon sales either. They’ve been a staple of my life since I was a kid in 97 and I love they’re not stopping yet
"Annnnnd it's gone"
So happy for these 2 guys, they have brought me decades of laughter. Cheers
“They seem to be leaning towards libertarian”
If that narrator only knew what they’d confess to later on.
They're not actually Republicans though lol. Just every now and then they publicly say they're Republican just to confuse people and watch people's face melt. It's something they do every few years.
Why you so defensive about them being republican kinda sus eh
@@barrymccockiner3964 I wasn't being defensive or angry. Was just stating what they've said themselves.
As a Nordic, I won't stick my nose to American politics, but the collective soap box-behavior is kind of hilarious. Whether democrat or republican, you are 100% and shout it. Same goes to other things "I am a gun owner!", "I am a vegan!" and so on. What they are actually saying is that "I am a hero!" People define themselves by most arbitrary things, shout it out loud and wear T-shirts and hats and bumper stickers etc. with a text that what kind of superhero they are. And it's kind of confusing when someone says "I support our troops". Like... how exactly? With tax dollars?
Rex lol support our troops was propaganda for funding of the multiple wars we don't understand or care to be in. A majority of Americans are pacifist but will do the hard thing if they feel it's what's right to do. We're being manipulated to be pro war
They taught me how to use curse words lol
Dont you mean a word of curse
idk if this is too much praise but i really believe Trey is the most talented person alive
James NRK He really is, he’s such a genius
(Trey Parker doing the Randy Voice) I AGREE
9:55
i think i already saw this room. SP episode "Quest for Ratings".
Matt stone's neck makes me uncomfortable
+Cow Man lol after reading your comment its starting to make me uncomfortable too
+Cow Man I CANT STOP LOOKING AT IT NOW
J. S. lmao I can't stop laughing
What exactly is wrong with it? He just has a long neck. So what.
im ultimately confused, what makes you all uncomfortable with it? i just see a neck like everyone else's?
"Are there any lines you won't cross?" Let's just say by this point in time they made it very clear there was not.
I love both of them so much...
It’s hard to convey what kind of impact they’ve had.
The countless hours of laughter aside, I firmly believe they helped mold my views for the better.
They consistently tackle the topic of the time period and always have a thought provoking take on it.
Regardless of your position, if you objectively watched South Park from beginning to end. You’d agree you were better off doing so.
I hope they can accept the congressional Medal of Honor on acid one day, they deserve it.
Spaghetti monster bless them❤️
They didn’t mention Matt and Trey Went to the Oscars wearing dresses and tripping on LSD!! I absolutely love South Park! I have every single episode..even the few that where not aired.
Can we please be Super best friends? You might be my only way to see Super Best Friends and 200/201
Matt and Trey are awesome. I'm super cereal about that.
Honestly the pillar of mainstream comedy, if it weren't for these two geniuses i wouldn't have grown up with the humor i cherish today. Every moment in the later episodes of South Park has deeper meaning that most of us can understand. Like Stan, Kyle, Cartman & Kenny has has their own moral standpoint that overall comes with a conclusion at the end of the show, mostly Kyle being the rational and Stan being the one come to a conclusion and Cartman that is manipulative.
Thanks Trey Parker & Matt Stone!
Great analysis👏👍
They harmonized on “no”
“Tom is John Travolta. OH MY GOD.” 😂😂😂😂 killed me
15 season… wow. Who would have thought 10 years later they’d have a concert and gear up for another 10 seasons. Trey and Matt are the best
Its not all about talent. It says a lot about their personalities and their work ethic that they are still going strong after 25 years. You have to have the right personality to get along with the same core group of people for that long in that setting. Ego and often money get in the way. I can't think of too many professional partnerships that have been as successful as them for this long
Trey Parker: the master of playing 50+ characters with the same voice.
My favorite line from the South Park movie was when Chef asked the General "Haven't you ever heard of the Emancipation Proclamation?"
And without a pause the general says:
"I don't listen to Hip-Hop."
I wish I had a friendship like this
At first, i though they were both married to each other... but man, that's the most perfect duo i've ever seen
The World of Warcraft episode is by far one of the best ones I have ever seen. I've watched it dozens of times and I laugh out loud every single time.
South Park has got me through alot of rough times. Thank you Matt Stone and Trey Parker
My grandma went to this play thinking it was a serious play and was horribly offended 😂😂
lmao.. i was thinking how many mormons went to it thinking its serious
I went to see Book of Mormon in London this past spring. You need to see it.
These guys are national treasures
Cannibal is their movie. You can watch the whole movie on youtube
Tosh.o and Dave Chappelle and southpark are the big 3 of CC
The first time I watch South Park, I was aged 8, in 1998, around my friend's house. The phone kept ringing, I generally thought it was my mum knowing we were watching South Park. I crumbled told her... then found out my Mum already watches it with her boyfriend haha
thumbs up if you think trey parker should have a son,name him peter,disapear when peter's still young and then when peter gets older, make sure he gets bit by a spider and becomes spider-man.
OH!!! I GET IT, because HIS NAME IS PARKER!!!!! HA!!! HA!!! HA!!!!!!!!!! Geez, I wish I would've thought of that one, that's priceless.
RyanNeil95 I'm sure you'll get there someday mate.
Been watching South Park since i was 4 and always loved it because the boys reminded me so much of how me and my friends were as kids. The only show i watched which did actually show how kids talk between each other.
“If u don’t like it u can geeetout”
When you're sitting back and reminiscing fondly over this great documentary, remember to thank Lipitor. Without their sponsorship, this wouldn't exist.
I had a renewed respect for these guys when I watched the 6 days to air doc.
“Are there lines that you won’t cross?”
*completely in unison* “Hmmm no”
They are so aligned on everything
Musicians, comedians, visual artists and great writers they are just pure geniuses
Wow completely original comedy, Amy Schumer is jealous.
You misspelled Amy Jewmer
OAHG they briefly did
They remind me so much of my best friend and I. Well besides being multi millionaires
The episode of Terrance & Phillip not working together was them saying what would happen if the stopped working together.
i love that the reporter clearly likes and respects them a lot. refreshing to see journalists who understand genius
this is the greatest bromance ever.
6:57 PC BRO
My best friend and I are both comedy writers who are working on a few pilots together and we both really look up to these guys. Trey and Matt are two real-life best friends who have created their own show which has been on for over two decades, that’s basically the best case scenario for my writing partner and I. We’re both pretty young and have only been at it for a couple of years so who knows where we’ll end up, but we’re hoping that we can end up anywhere close to where Trey Parker and Matt Stone are in their careers.
