In an interview with Entertainment Weekly, Trey Parker revealed: “If I had to permanently erase anything from the library, it would basically be anything before season 4. It’s just embarrassing to watch. OK, we were like 26, 27. But it’s like, ‘Really?’ We thought that was funny? We thought that was well-written? Oh my God, this is terrible.” 2 Fox rejected the show s pitch A South Park Special on Comedy Central (Image via Comedy Central) Before it was taken up by Comedy Central, Fox turned down Matt Stone and Trey Parker's pitch for the show because it wasn't family-friendly enough for the network.

The theater is special to the creator duo of Trey Parker and Matt Stone for a number of reasons. They first met in Boulder, Colorado as university students, and created the show through a hilarious VHS Christmas card. Red Rocks is a world-renowned concert venue now, and it also happens to be the same place where the duo got Primus’ Les Claypool to re-record the theme song on a handheld recorder after Comedy Central decided that the previous version was too slow.
