Quest For Ratings - Production

Production

With the recent release of season 8 on DVD, many of the mini commentaries revealed that much of the lack of ideas was because Team America: World Police, Trey Parker and Matt Stone's concurrent film, had just been through a long, grueling post-production and left the staff low on energy:

“ So, this episode marks a very special time in South Park history, because, this was the first time that we were officially... out of ideas. ”

—Trey Parker on the DVD commentary for this episode

Famous quotes containing the word production:

    “From the war of nature, from famine and death, the most exalted object which we are capable of conceiving, namely, the production of the higher animals, directly follows. There is grandeur in this view of life, with its several powers, having been breathed into a few forms or into one; and that, whilst this planet has gone cycling on according to the fixed law of gravity, from so simple a beginning endless forms most beautiful and most wonderful have been, and are being, evolved.”
    —Charles Darwin (1809–1882)
