On this Wednesday’s episode of “South Park,” the boys need Al Gore’s help. They’ve just got to apologize for that “ManBearPig” episode first.
Catch a sneak peek for the “Time to Get Cereal” episode via the video above. Is ManBearPig back in the sleepy Colorado town?
Here is Gore’s “South Park” Universe bio, straight from the show’s site:
The former Vice President of the United States from 1993 to 2001, Al Gore has largely faded into obscurity since his presidential loss to George W. Bush. In a bid to stay politically relevant, the former Democrat has dedicated his life to warning people about the greatest threat to the human race… Manbearpig. Spreading awareness, giving presentations and speeches, studying the enemy, and of course, doing whatever it might possibly take to kill him, even if meddling kids get in the way. The only reason anyone pretends to take Gore seriously is they don’t think he has any friends.
And here is the same wiki’s list of episodes the Gore character has appeared in:
“The Red Badge of Gayness” (Season 3, Episode 14)
“ManBearPig” (Season 10, Episode 6)
“Imaginationland”, Episode III (Season 11, Episode 12)
“200” (cameo in Season 14, Episode 5)
“201 “(cameo in Season 14, Episode 6)
Wednesday’s episode is the sixth installment of Season 22.
“South Park” airs Wednesday nights at 10/9c on Comedy Central.
